 THE HISTORY OF DR. SCHENCK's OWN
 CASE. AND HOW HE WAS CURED OF | CONSUMPTION.
 Many years ago, whilst residing in Philadel- phia, 1 had progressed gradually into the fast stage of Pulmonary Consump ption. All hopes of my recovery being dissipated, was advis- ed by my physician, Dr. Parrish, to remove into the country. Moorcstown,. New Jersey being the place of nativity, I was removed tLither. My father and all his fami- ] ly had lived and died there-and died of Pull monary Consumption. On my arrival 1 was put to bed, where I lay for many weeks in what was deemed hopeless condition. Dr. Thornton, who had been my fathers family physician, and had attended him in his last illness, was called to sec me. He thought my case entirely beyond the reach of medicine and decided that must die, and gave me one week to arrange my temporal atfaiis. In this | apparently hopeless condition, heard of the | remedies which now make and sell. It seeh- ed to 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 actol, and the morbid matter which for years had accumulated and rritated the different organs of the body, was eliminated, the tuberces on my lungs ripened and I expectorated from my lungs as much as pint of yellow offens- i've matter every morning. As this expecto- ration of matter subsided, the fever abated, the pain left me, the cough ceased to harrass me, and the exhausting night-sweats were no longer known. and had refreshing sleep, ts which had long been a stranger. My appe- tite now began to return, and at times 1 fo Ind it difficult to restrain myself from eating too much with this return of health, gained ill strength, and now am fieshy. 1 am now healthy man, with large healed cicatrix in the middle lobe of the right lung and the low CT lobe hepatzcd with complete adhesion of the pleura The left lung is so"nd, and the upper lobe of the right one Is Tn tolerably healthy condition
 1 Consumption at that time was thought te be an incurable disease by every one, physi clans as we'll as those who were unlearned in medicine-espt cially such cases as were reduced to the condition was in. This induced many people to believe my recovery only temporary i now prepared and gave the medicines to 1 md ala wonderful cures and the demand increased so ranidly, that determined to offer them to the nublic, and devote my undivided attention to iung diseases In truth, l was next to forced to it, for people would send for me far and near to ascertain whe ther their cases were like mine.
 For many years. in conjunction with my principal office in Philadelphia l nave been making regular professional visits to New 1 York. Boston Baltimore aud Pittsburg.
 For several years past. have made as ma nv as five hundred examinations, weekly with | t6e .. Respirometer.' For such examination my charge is three dollars, and it enables me to give each patient the condition of his dis ease. and tell him frankly whether he will get well.
 consumntion is, that they try to do too much i; thev eiye medicines to try to stop the cough, to ston inc nightsweats, hectic fever, and by SD doing. they derange the whole digestive system locking up the secretions, and eventn- ally the patient dies.
 The pulmonic Syrup is one of the most val uable medicines known. It is nutrient, pow erfnllv tonic and healing in itself. It con, tains no opium, yet loosenS the phlegm in the bronchial tubes, and nature throws It on ,,;th little exertion one bottle frequently cnras an ordinary cole but it will be we'll 6rst to take dose of Schenck's Mandrake 1 p;iIs to cleanse the stomach The Pulmonic srrmn ;s readily dgested and absorbed into blood to which it imparts it's healing proper ties If is one of the best preparations of iron | in nse it is powerful tonic of itself; and wban tbe Seaweed Tonic dissolves the mucus ;n ' tha stomach and is carried off by the aid of tha Mandrake Pills, a healthy flow of gastric 1 ;n;ce @ood appetite and good digestion fol- low.
 Tho soawe.d Tonic is a stimulant, and none ,+har ;s reouired when it is used. It is pure i onJ nlaasant no bad effects like when using | Bourbon whisky, which disorders the stom- och tornors the liver, locks up all the secre- tions, turns the blood into water, dropsy set' in and the patient dies suddenly.
 u, ponrbon whisky is recommended now-a- days by almost every physician. Many pa t;aynts that visit my rooms, both male and fe- n,aIe are sturiied with this poison. The re- i;ef ;s temporary. If they cough, they take a i little whisky if they feel weak and feeble, thew take little whisky; if they cannot sleep, they takea little whisky; and they go on in this this way requiring more and more until they are are bIoated up, and imagine they are getting aesbys The stomach, liver, and digestive pow CTS are completely destroyed, and lose their appetite for food No one was ever cured of consumption by this process, where cavities have been formed in the lungs. little stimu- lant is frequently beneficial to consumptives, i. such as pure brandy or good wines, in many cases, London porter or brown stout in mode rate quantities but Bourbon whisky hastens On instead rf c,,rino couaumnfion,
