The Historyof DR.. Schenct's oun Case, and how
he ,ras cared Of Consumption.
MANY years ago, whilst residing in Philadel-
Pine, had progressed gradually into the last

my recovery being d,ssipated. l was adv iaed BY
Dr. Parrish to remove into the county. Moores-
town, n j., being my native place, vas remov-
ed thither. M father and all his family had liv-
ed and died there--died Of Pulmonary COnsump-
ton. On my arrival was 1ut 10 bed, where
lay for many w.eks in what was deemed hope
less cosdition. DR.. Thornton. who had been my
fathers family physician, and had attended him

next to forced to it. for people would send for me
far and near, to ascertain whether their cases
were like mine.
For many years. in conjunction with my prin-

REGULAR professional visits to New York, Boston,
Baltimore and Pittsbur4.
For several years past, have made as many
