we have to do. We also know that we have
within our grasp the very materials to do it
with Upon this one great fact and principle
hangs the whole treatment of every disease of
the blood and general system; and when this
is learned by physicians and the people, dis
ease, suffering and death will produce no more
dread, for they will be as easily and quickly Gu
red as simple problem can be solved in the
science of mathematics. each being governed
by scientific and natural law.
Further, in relation to the treatment of con-
sumption, in most cases it becomes necessary,
after the main general remedies have been di-
rected to the stomach and digestive organs to
use more local ones to fully and speedily re-
store health. The lungs and air-passages, af-
ter having been so much weakened and irrita-
ted, require cleansing, strengthening and qui-
citing remedies, both external and internal;
each external manifestation, or distinct and
prominent symptom, requires its specific ele-
mental remedy to check them at once, and cure
positively and permanently.
This course of treatment we have never
found in single instance (where proper eau
ton and judgment was used in regard to diet,
exercise. exposure, &C., to fail in curing case
of consumption, having restored to health, af-
ter every hope had fled and the victims had
been given over to the Angel of Death, both by
physicians and friends. Many thousand cases
and in due time we shall prepare and pub

diseases of all kinds-a list of SEVERAL. THOU
treatment in every part of this country.
The advantages this system of treatment has
over all Others in the cure of consumption,
asthma, and all throat diseases, are many. In
the first place the patient is cured quicker by
weeks or months. Second, the cost Of a cure
is much less. Third. the cure, when made, is
permanent and final. Fourth, it is accom-
remedies, as they are easy to take, and no par
ticular changes required in diet, exposure, or
exercise; and lastly, there is not the least dan
ger in using them even BY the most delicate
female or nursing child, for we give no MERcU-
RY, CALONIEL, OPIUM, OR MINERAL REMEDIES
WHATEVER; neither do we use blisters i'm any
case, or anything that sickens, weakens, or ir-
ritates the system. On the contrary, our remi-
dies strengthen at once, give new life, vitality
and ambition, and build up the weak, shattered
constitution, and thus surely pluck the unfor-
tunate sufferer from the grave.
In conclusion, on this important subject of
consumption, we wish to say to all suffering in
any degree from all lung or throat complaints.
do not delay another day; for we warn you now,
that your life and future happiness, and ali
that is dear to you in this world, is at stake
for SO sure as day follows night, the deadly ser,
pent will tighten his Shiny coils about Won
steadily and surely, till you are forever lost.
Do not, we beg of you, be flattered into the be-
lief that course of cod-liver oil, or cough
mixtures, or any of the ordinary remedies, are
going to do you particle of good. Although
they may seem for time to quiet the cold and
give transient hopes. they will positively fail in
the end, and you are lost; an early grave covers
you, and all your bright hopes and aspirations
are gone-blasted in the hour of their concep-
ton, and many loving hearts are wrung with
anguish for your loss. Reflect, dear consump-
tive friends, tor one moment, on this grave and
important subject. Count up the hundreds you
have known and heard of who have sickened
and died with this awful human dread, and see
if you can find one single case, that was EVIL
IDENTIFY one of consumption, that has been fully
cured and saved from death by any and all
the systems of treatment now adopted by ply
sicians or quackS.
You can find none; then, why in the name
OF high heaven and bright angels, do you de-
lay, or even consent to take one particle of
their deadly nostrums, spend your money, pun
ish yourselves with sickening mixtures, bis
tiers, and treatment that would kill horse
when all is vain-wOrse even than nothing.
Dear friends, would you be saved speedily

ScROFULA is in all cases easily and speedily
cured by this treatment. We give first the
general remedy to rectify and change the diyes-
tive apparatus and then follow up with natural
purifying and blood remedies, with auxiliaries

case is subject to, till the whole arrangement
is righted. and overcome by the recuperative

The general nature of scrofula, in any form is
the same as consumption, only the disease To-
Gates upon other parts than the lungs Conse-

throat and neck, which sooner or later become
