Blood albumen, which is a valuable 
poultry food, must not be confounded with 
the fraudulent “red albumen,” which has 
recently been treated to a fraud order by 
the Post Office Department. Geo. H. Lee

be depended on as a firm of honorable 
reputation. 
Krauser’s Liquid Extract of Smoke is. 
made from selected hickory wood. It is 
applied to the meat with a brush or sponge. 
It contains the same ingredients that pre¬ 
serve meat that is smoked in the old way. 
It gives meat a delicious, sweet flavor, and 
gives perfect protection against insects and 
mold. It is cheaper and cleaner than the 
CONSUMPTION CURED. 
An old physician, retired from practice, had 
placed in his hands by an East India missionary 
the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for the 
speedy and permanent cure of Consumption, 
Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma and all Throat and 
Lung Affections; also a positive and radical cure 
for Nervous Debility and all Ne vous Complaints. 
Having tested its wonderful < irative powers in 
thousandsof cases, anddesiringtorelievehuman 
suffering, I will send free of charge to all who wish 
it, this recipe, in German, French or English, with 
full directions for preparing and using. Sent by

cost, etc., can be had by writing to the

VDo an Old Thing a New Way and 
Profit” is the title of a new booklet seat 
to Inquiring friends by Dodge & Zuill, 539 
South Clinton Street, Syracuse, N. Y., 
makers of the Syracuse easy washer. The 
book contains some remarkable statements 
interesting to all having laundry work t.o 
do, especially to those who do it the old 
way. The book also contains some valu¬ 
able recipes of practical use about soaps, 
bluing, water and other things used and 
useful in the laundry. 
BRONCHIAL CONSUMPTION. 
From Dr. Robert Hunter’s Lectures on 
Lung Diseases. 
Of the many forms of Bronchitis, the 
one most alarming of all is that in which 
the symptoms closely resemble those of 
consumption, and hence called consump¬ 
tive bronchitis, or bronchial consumption. 
You must not, however, understand from 
its name that it is really tuberculosis in 
character, or produced by the bacilli 
which cause true consumption. 
In all lung cases I require a portion of 
the expectorated matter coughed up by 
the patient to be brought to me, or sent 
in a small bottle by express, before giv¬ 
ing a definite opinion of the disease. If, 
on examination, I find the tubercle bacilli 
present, the case is consumption; and if 
no bacilli—Bronchitis. A large percentage 
of those who die of lung disease, supposed 
to be consumption, are really deaths by 
chronic bronchitis resembling consump¬ 
tion. 
A remarkable instance in verification of 
this recently occurred. A lady was 
brought to me in what appeared the last 
stage of consumption. Her physicians 
had told her husband that she could not 
live a week. She had a bad cough, puri- 
form expectorations, night sweats and 
was wasted almost to skin and bone. 
Judging by her symptoms and appearance 
it was impossible not to fear that she had 
come too late. On sounding her chest, 
however, I was surprised to find no solidi¬ 
fication by tubercles, and on examining 
her sputum a total absence of the bacilli. 
The history, too, of her sickness revealed 
that it had followed an attacK. of whoop¬ 
ing cough and grippe. So, although her 
pulse was 120 a minute, and so feeble as 
to be hardly perceptible, and the wasting 
of her body so extreme that she could not 
stand without support,. I did not hesitate 
to pronounce the disease bronchial, and 
give it as my opinion that, if we could 
sustain her strength long enough for 
remedies to act, she would be saved. She 
was immediately placed under medicated 
air treatment, with tonics to impart appe¬ 
tite and digestives to help the enfeebled 
stomach to transform nourishments into 
chyle and blood. Within a week she 
showed signs of improvement. Her prog¬ 
ress was necessarily slow, as the healing 
powers of the jpody were nearly exhausted 
before the first inhalation was given, but 
she gradually acquired more and more 
strength, and within six weeks was able 
to take short walks in the open air. She 
recovered perfectly in about six months, 
and is alive and well to-day. 
This ease shows the Importance of a 
correct diagnosis and proper adaptation 
of the treatment of the conditions to be 
remedied. Had the true nature of her dis¬ 
ease not been discovered just when it was, 
she would have lost her life through 
wrong treatment, and been recorded as 
another death by consumption. 
Every form of bronchitis is curable by 
local antiseptic and healing remedies ap¬ 
plied directly to the lungs by medicated 
air inhalation, but none of them by stom¬ 
ach treatment. The stomach is not the 
part affected. The air tubes and cells of 
the lungs are the seat of every bronchial 
disease, and unless remedies capable of 
changing their bad secretions and healing 
the inflamed tubes are applied to them 
cure is impossible.
