 THE HISTORY OF DIR. SCHENCK'S OWN CASE, AND HOW HE WAS CURED OF ASSUMPTION,
 Many years ago, whilst residing in Philadel phia. had progressed gradually into the fast stage of Pulmonary Consum ption. All hopes of my recovery being dissipated was advis ed by my physician, Dr. Parrish, to remove in.o the country. Moorestown, New Jersey. being the place of my nativity, l was removed tl.ither.s. My father and ail his fami- Fly had lived and tiie, there-,.nd died of Pni- monary Consumption. On my arrival l was put to bed, where I lay for many weeks in what was deemed hopeless condition. Dr. Thornton, who had been my fathers family 1 physician, and had attended him in his last 1 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 my temporal atlai,s. In this 1 apparently hopeless cSndition, l heard of the l remedies which now make and sell. It seern- ed to me that could feel them working their | way, and penetrating every nerve, fibre, and tissue of my system.
 I My lungs and liver put on q new actioi, and the morbid matter which for years mad ! accumulated and irrta:ed the different organs of the body, was eliminated, the tubcrcles my lungs lipened, and l expect.rlted from my lungs as much as ; pint ol yellow otfens- | i've matter every morning. As this expectU- ration of matter substled, the fever alated, the pain left me, the cough ceased to harass mo, and the exhausting night-sweats were no | longer known. and had refreshing sleep, tS | which hMl long been stranger My appe te now began 10 return, and at times fo md | il difficult to restrain myself from euting too much /; with this return of health, gained in strength. and now am heshy 1 an now | healthy man, with q large healed cicatrix in the middle lobe of the right lung and the low CT lobe hepatized with complete adhesion of the pleura The left lung is sound, and the upper lobe of the right one is in tolerably healthy condition
 Consumption at that time was thought to l be an incurable disease by every one, physi cans as well as those who were unlearned in 1 mcdicine-esp, cially such cases as were reduced l to the condition was in. This induced many people to believe my recovery only temporary ] i now prepared and gave the medicines to consumptives for some time, and made many wonderful cures and the demand increased so | rapdly, that determined to offer them to the public and devote my undivided attention to | lung diseases. In truth, 1 was next to forced 1 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 principal office in Philadelphia, l have been making regular professional visits to New York, Boston, Baltimore. and Pittsburg.
 For several years past, have made as ma- ny as five hundred examinations, weekly with i the Respirometer" For such examination my charge is thu dollars, and it enables me to give each patient the condition of his dis ease, 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 try to stop the cough, to stop the night-sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing, they derange the whole digestive system, locking up the sccretions, and eventu- ally the patient dies.
 | The Pulmonic Syrup is one of the most val
 uable medicines known. It is nutrient, pow
 crfully tonic and healing in itself. It con |
 bronchial tubes, and nature throws it of
 with little exertion one bottle frequently
 cures an ordinary colo but it will be well | first to take dose of Schenck's Mandrake
 Pills to cleanse the stomach. The Pulmonic
 Syrup is readily digcsted and absorbed into
 blood, to which it imparts its healing proper
 ties. It is one of the best preparations of iron
 in use it is powerful tonic of itself; and

 juice, good appetite, and good digestion fol low.
 The Seawccd Tonic is a stimulant, and none
 other is required when it is used It is pure and pleasant no bad effects like when using
 Bourbon whisky, which disorders the stom ach, torpors the liver, locks mp all the secre lions, turns the blood into water, dropsy set in and the patient dies suddenly
 Bourbon whisky is recommended nova days by almost every physician. Many pa tients that visit my rooms, both male and fe- male, arc sturifed with this poison. The re lief is temporary. If they cough, they take
 little whisky if they feel weak and feeble they take d little whisky if they cannot sleep
 they takea little whisky ; and they go on il
 this way requiring more and more until they
 are bloated np, and imagine they are getting
 hcshy The stomach, liver, and digestive pow
 CTS are completely destroyed, and lose thei
 appetite for food No one was ever cured o
 consumption by this process where cavitie,
 have been formed in the lungs. little stmu
 lant is frequently beneficial to consnmptives
 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 of curing consumption.
 ! ?, The Seaweed Tonic produces lasting results
 thoroughly invigorating the stomach and di- gestiye system. and enabling it to eliminate
 and make into healthy blood the food which
 may be used for that purpose. It is so won
 derful in its effects that wine-glass full will l digest hearty meal. and a little of it taken
 before breakfast, will give tone to the stom-
 ach, which few medicines possess the power of doing. l[
 The MANDRAKE PILLS may be taken with entire safety by all ages 'and conditions, pro ducing all the good results that can be obtain ed from calomel, or any of the mercurial med icines, and without any of their hurtful or in- ! furious results. They carry out of the system | the feculent and worn-out matters loosened 1 and dissolved by my Seaweed Tonic and Pull l monic Syrup. It will be seen that all three of my medicines are needed in most cases to cure Consumption. .t----u BosroN-George C. Goodwin & Co. NEW YoRK-Demas Barnes & Co. BAIrIMoRE-S. s. Hance
