THE History or DR ScHKNcKs OWN CAsE.
AND HOW WAS evRED or CONSUMPTION
Many years ago. whilst residing in PbilIdeI-
phla, had progressed gradually into the last
stage Of Pulmonary Consumption. All homes
of my recovery being dIssipsted, was advised
by my physician, DR.. Parrish, to remove into
the country M0orestowu, New jersey, being
my native place, / was removed theither. NV
father and all bis Gamiiy bad lived and died
theTe-and died of Pulmonary Consumption.-
On my arrival was put TO he'd, where ] Law
for many weeks in,Ehat was deemed hopeless
condition. DIR. Thornton who had been my
father family physician, aud had attended HIM
in his last illness, was called to see me He
thought my case entirely beyond the reach of
medicine, and decided that | must die, and
gave me one week to arrange nv TEMPORAL
affairs. In this sPPesrantlY hopeless condition,
| heard of the remedies which now make and
sell. II seemed 20 me that | could feel them
working their way, and penetrating every nerve,
fibre, and tissue Of my system.
My lungs and liver put on a new action. and
the morbid matter which for years had accum-
ulated and irritated the different organs of the
body, was eliminated, the tubercles of nv lungs
ripened, and expectOrated from my lungs as
much as pint of yellow offensive matter everv
morning. As this expectoratiOn of matter sub
sided, the fever abated the pain left me. the
cough ceased to harrass me- and the exhaustipe
night-sweets were no longer known, and had
refreshing sleep, to which / had long been
stranger. My appetite now began TO return.
and at times | found it difficult TO restrain nv
self from eating too much; with this return of
health, gained in strength, and now am feshy.
l am now healthy man, with large healed
cicatrix in the middle lobe Of the right lung and
the lower lobe hepatized with complete sdhe-
sion of the pleura. The left lung is sound. and
the upper lobe of the right one is in a tolerablv
healthy condition.
Consumption at that time was thought to be
an incurable disease, by every one, physicians
as wellas those who were unlearned in medi-
cine-especially such cases as were reduced to
the condition l was in. This induced many
people to believe my recovery only temporary.
now prepared and gave the medicine to con-
sumptives for some time, and made many won
derful cures; and the demands increased so rap
idly that determined to offer them TO the pub
lie, and devote my undivided attention to lung
diseases. In truth | was next to forced TO Il.
for people wound send for me far and near, to
ascertain whether their cases were like mine.
For many years in conjunction with nv
principal Office in Philadelphia, | have been
making regular professional visits to New York,
Boston, Baltimore, and Pittsburg.
For several years past | have made as many
as five hundred examinations weekly with the
"Respirometer." For such examination my
charge is three dollars, and it enables me to give
each patient the true condition of his disease,
and tell him frankly whether he will get we'll
The great reason why physicians do not cure
Consumption is, that they try to do too much;
they give medicines to stop the cough, to stop
the nlght-swsats, hectic fever, and BY so doing
they derange the whole digestive system, lock-
ing up the secretions, and eventually the patient
dies.
The PulmOnic Syrup IS one of the most val
liable medicines known. Its nutrient power

no OPIUM yet lOosens the phlegm IN the bronch-

best preparations of iron in use; it is powerful

healthy flow of gastric juice, good appetite and

the patient dies suddenly.
Bourbon wbIskey is recommended nOw-a-
days by almost every physician. Many patients
that visit my rooms, both male and female, are
stupefed with this poison. The relief is tenn
pOrary. If they cough they take little wbIs-
ky; if they feel weak and feeble they take
little whisky; if they cannot sleep they take
little whisky; and they go on in this way, re-
quiring more and more until they are blOated
up. and imagine they are getting flesby. The
stomach. liver, and digestive powers are COM
pletely destroyed. and lose their appetite for
