/\ XYG E N IS LIFE-, Althoucb the modern Materia Mbdica in cludes many valuable remedies for human : afflictions, it is a matter of certainty that in all cases where the animal vitality is failing, 1 ho3 phorus is decideily superior to every other remedy at present known. It will work efix-cts snch as nothing else will produce, and ltipos sesses the great advantage of not causing, wj-.en its use is relinquished, the slightest reaction or depression. , ~„, The question naturally presents itself,' «uy is so valuable an element so little regarded and so seldom prescribed V The only answer which can be given ia :—That a certain difficulty nas been found in so preparing it that its action may be kept under perfect control. Aitherto it has been used in almond and olive oils, in sulphuric ether, in rectified alcohol, in chloroform, and in several other substances; but however valu able it has been found in all the hitherto known methods of its preparation, certain irregular results have been experienced, which have leu Dhysicians to neglect it for general purposes and to employ it only in extreme cases, and a*ter every other remedy has failed. But a chemical process has now been discovered, by which tte invaluable action on the human sys tem may be realised without any of those draw backs which previous modes of aaministration BoSSt&eßsrfd inihe torn of and Lozenges ; it should be generally known hat every form where solid £ss£? fTSo^^v^^H SPSSsSb rsstsss (OZONIC OXYGEN.)
