TIE HIsTORY OF d. SoHENoK's own CAsE,
AND HOW WAS CURED or OoEsUzPTION
Many years ago, whilst residing. in. PhiIidel-
phia, l had progressed 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 theither nv
father and all his family had lived and died
there-and died of Pulmonary Consumption
On my arrival was put to bed where I Law
for many weeks in what was deemed housless
condition. DR.. Thornton, who had been my
fathers family physician, and had attended him
in his last 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
affairs. In this sppearantly hopeless condition,
| / heard of the remedies which now make and
sell. II seemed to me that l 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 accum-
ulsted and irritated the different organs Of the
body, was eliminated the tubercles Of nv lungs
ripened, and expectOrsted from my lungs ss
much as pint Of yellow offensive matter svery
morning. As this expectOration of matter sub
sided, the fever abated, the pain left me, the
cough ceased to harrsss me, and the sxhaustjnp
night-sweets were no longer known, and had
refreshing sleep, to which ! had long been
stranger. My appetite now began to return.
and at times ] found it difficult TO restrain nv
self from eating too much; with this return of
health, gained in strength, and now am feshy
4 j am now healthy man, with large healed
cicatrix in the middle lobe Of the right lung and
the lower lobe hepatized with complete sdhe-
sion of the pleurs- The left lung is sound, and
the upper lobe of the right one Is in q atolersbly
healthy condition.
Consumption at that time was thought 10 be
an incursble disease, by every one, physicians
as well as those who were unlearned in medi-
cine-especially such cases as were reduced To
the condition ] was in. This induced manv
people to believe my recovery only temporary
] now prepared and gave the medicine TO con-
sumptives for some time, and made many won
derful cures; and the demands increased 20 ran
idly that determined TO offer them TO the pub
lie, and devote my undivided attention to lung
diseases In truth was next TO forced to Il,
| for people wound send for me far and near 10
ascertain whether their cases were like mine.
For many years, in conjunction with my
principal Office in Philadelphia, / 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 the
"Respirometer' For such examination nv
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 cure
Consumption is, that they try TO do too much;
/ they give medicines to stop the cough, to stop
the night-sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive system, lock-
ing up the secretiOns, and eventually the patient
dies.
The Pulmonic Syrup is Que of the most val
liable medicines known. 1t is nutrient power
fully tonic and healing in itself IL contains
no opium, yet loosens the phlegm in the bronch-
ial tubes, and nature throws it off with little ex-
ertion. One bottle frequently cures an ordin-
airy cold; but it will be well first to take dose
of Schenck's Mandrake's Pills to cleanse the
stomach. The PulmOnic Syrup is readily d.
gested and absorbed into blood, TO which It i'm
parts its healing properties. Il is one Of the
best preparations Of iron in use; it is powerful
tonic of itself; and when the Seaweed Tonic
dissOlves the mucus in the stomach and is car
ried off by the aid Of the Mandrake Pills,
healthy flow of gastric juice good appetite and
a good digestion follow.
The Seaweed Tonic is a stimnlant, and none
other is required when it is used. Il is pure
and pleasant; no bad effects like when using
Bourbon whisky, which disorders the stomach
torpers the liver, locks up all the secretODs
turns the blood into water, drOpsy sets in, and
the patient dies suddenly.
Bourbon whiskey is recommended nOw-s-
days by almost every physician. Many patients
that visit my rooms, both male and female, arc
stupefed with this poison. The relief is tenn
porary If they cough they take little whis-
Ky; II they feel weak and feeble they take a
little whisky; if they cannot sleep they take
little whisky and they go on in this way, re-
quiring more and more until they are blosted
up, and imagine they getting feshy. The
stomach liver, and digestive powers are COM
pletely destroyed. and lose their appetite for
food No one was ever cured of consumption
by this process where cavities have been fOrm-
ed in the lungs A little stimulant is frequent
ly beneficial to consumptivss, such as pure
brandy or good wines; in many cases London
I
Bourbon whiskey hsstens on instead of curing
consumption.
The Seaweed Tonic produces lasting results,
thoroughly invigorating the stomach and di-
gestiye system, aud enabling it to eliminate and
make into healthy blood the food which may be
used for that purpose. IL Is 80 wonderful in
its effects that a wineglass full viii digest a
hearty meal, and little of it taken before
breakfast will give tone To the stomach which
few medicines possess the power of doing.
The MANDRAKE PILLS may be taken
with entire safety by all ages and conditions,
producing ali the good results that can be OBJ
tanned from calOmel, any of the mercurial
medicines, and without any of their hnrtful or
injurious results. They carry out OF the sys-
tenn the fecusnt and wOrn-Out matters lOOsened
and dissolved by my Seaweed Tonic and Pull
monic Syrup II will be seen that all three Of
NV medicines are needed in most cases to cure
Consumption.
