fathers family physician and had attended him In his
last illness called 70 lie thought my case
entirely beyond the reach Of medicine and decided that

The gr why physicians do not eonsump-
ton is, that they try 70 do much they give med-
cnes stop The cough stop the night sweas hectic
fever and by doing they derange the whole digestive
system locking up the secretions and eventually the pa

The Pulmonie Syrup is Of the valuable medi-
cnes known. 1t is nutrient, powerfully tonic and heal

Pulmonio Syrup is readily dgested and absorbed into

solves the mueus in the stomach and is carried off by
the aid Of the Mandrake Pills, healthy aw Of gastric
juice, good appetite, and good digestion follow.
The Sesweed Tonic is a stimuant, and none other is
required when it is used. 1t is pure and pleasant no
bad effects like when using Bourbon whisky which dis
orders the stomach, torpors liver locks up all the
oretons the blood into water dropsy sets in and
the patient dies suddenly
Bourbon whisky is recommended now days by almost
every physician. Many patients that visit my rooms

they bloated up and imagine they are getting aeshy
The stomach liver aud digestive powers are completely
destroyed and lse their appetite for food No one was
ever cured Of consumption by this process where oav
ties have been formed ir the lungs little stimu-
liant Is frequently beneficial to consumptves, such as
pure brandy or good vines in many London por

whisky hastens on, instead OF curing consumption.
The seaweed Tonic produces lasting results, thorough

The Mandrake Pills may be taken with entire safety
