THE HISTORY OF DIR. SCHENCK'S OWN |
CASE, AND HOW BE WAS CURED
OF CONSUMPTION.
Many year ago, while residing in Philadel- |
phia, mad Tregressed gradually into the last
stage of Pulmonary Consumption, All hopes Of
my recovery being dissiPated, was advised by
my physician, DIR. Parrish, to remove into the
country, Moorestown, New Jersey being my
native place, was removed hther My father
| and al his family had lived aud died there, and
| died of Pulmonary Consumption. On my arri
! val | was put TO bed, where lay for many
weeks in what was deemed hopeless condition,
J DR.. Thornton, who had been my flther's family
| phi, sican, and had attende1 him in his last i'll
ness, was called to see ME. He thou, hy ny case
entirely beyond 4 reach Of medicine ami de-
cided that l mus. die, and gave me one week to
arrange my temporal affairs In this apparently
hopeless condition, l heard of the remedies
| which now make and sell II seemed 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 new action, and
the morbid matter which for years had accumu-
lated and irritattd the different organs Of the
body, was eliminated, the tuberces on my lungs
on my lung ripened, and I eXpecorated from
my lungs as much 4 pint OF yellow offensive
matter every morning. As this eXpectOration Of
matter subsidei, the fever abated the pain left
me, the cough ceased to harrass me, and the ex-
haustine night sweats were no longer known
and had refreshing sleep, to which 1 had long
beena stranger. My appetite now began to re-
turn, and at times I found it difficult 10 restrain
myself from eating too much with this return
Of health gained in strength, and now am
feshy. am now & healthy man, with large
healed cicatrix in the middle lobe Of the right
lung and the lower lobe hepatized with complete
adhesion of the pleura. The left lung is sound,
and the upper lobe OF the right one is in tole-
rably healthy condition.
| Consumption at that time was thought to be
an incurable disease by every enc, physicians as
well as those who were anlearned in medicine
especially such cases as were redu ed to the con-
dition was in. This induced many people to be-
lieve my recovery only temporary. l now pre-
| pared and gave the medicines to consumptives
for some time, and made many wonderful cures
and the demand increased so rapidly that l de-
termined to offer them to the public, and devote
my undivided attention TO lung diseases. In
truth, was next to forced TO it for people would
send for me far ard near, 10 ascertain @hethe,
their cases were like mine.
For many years, in injunction with my prin'
cipal nfficA in Philadelphia. I 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 tht
s'Resprometer.n 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 well.
The great reason why physicians do not curt

the secretions, and eventually the patient dies.
The Pulmonic Syrup is one of the most yalu
able medicines known. II is nutrient, powerful

The Pulmonic Syrup is readily digested and alb

properties. 1t is one of the best preparations o

Bourbon whisky is recommended now a-day

visit my rooms, both male and female, are stupi

cured of consumption by this process, wher
