The HIsroRY OF DR.. ScHEEcK's OWN CAsE
AND HOW HE WAS CURED OF CONSUMPTION
Many years ago. whilst residing in Phflidel-
phia, | had progressed gradually into the last
stage of Pulmonary Consumption. All hopes
of my recovery being dissipated was advised
by my physician, DR.. Parrish, TO remove INTO
the country. Moorestown, New Jersey. being
my native place | was removed tbeIther NV
father and all his family had lived and died
there-and died Of Pulmonary Consumption.-
On my arrival | was put to bed, where / lay
for many weeks in what was deemed hopeless
condition. Dr.. Thornton, who had been nv
father family physician, and had attended him
in his last illness, 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 appearantly hopeless condition,
[ heard of the remedies which l now make and
sell Il seemed to me that could feel them
working their way, and penetrating every nerve,
fibre and tissue of my system Vfar0fdI97

ulated and irritsted the different organs of the
| body, was eliminated, the tubercles Of my lungs
ripeued, and expectorated from my lungs as
much as pint of yellow offensive matter every
! morning. As this expectoration of matter sub
sided, the fever abated, the pain left me, the
cough ceased to hsrrass me- and the exhaustine
night-sweets were no longer known and had
refreshing sleep, to which j 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 ieshy
am now healthy man, with large healed
cieatTix in the middle lobe of the right lung and
| the lower lobe hepstized with complete adhe-
sion 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 Be
an incursble disease, by every one physicians
as well as those who were unlearned in medi-
especially such cases as were reduced TO
the condition l was in. This induced many
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 so rap
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 It
I for people wound send for me far and near, 70
ascertain whether their cases were like mine.
For many years, in conjunction with nv
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 many
as five hundred examinations weekly with the
."Respirometer." 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 cure
4 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 one of the most val
liable medicines known. It's nutrient, power
| fully tonic, and healing in itself It contains
no opium, yet loosens the phlegm in the broneh-
ial tubes, and nature throws it off with little ex-
ertion. One bottle frequently cures an Ordin-
ary cold; but it will be well first to take dose
of Schencks Mandrakes Pills to cleanse the
stomach. The Pulmonic Syrup is readily di-
gested and absorbed into blood to which It i'm
parts its healing properties. 1t 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

healthy flow of gastric Juice, good appetite and
a good digestion follow.
The SeaEeed Tonic IS a stimulsnt, 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 stomach
torpers the liver, locks up all the secretions
turns the blood into water, dropsy sets IN, and
the patient dies suddenly.
Bourbon whiskey is recommended nova
days by almost every physician Many patients
4 that visit my rooms, both male and female. are
stupefied with this poison. The relief is tenn
porary. If they cough they take little whs-
XIV: if they feel weak and feeble they take q
little whisky; if they cannot sleep they take a
little whisky and they go on in tins way, re-
quiring more and more until they are bloated
up, and imagine they getting ieshy. The
stomach, liver, and digestive powers are com
1 pletelv DESTROYED and lose their appetite iol
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 consumptives, such as pure
brandy or good wines; in many cases London
porter or brown stout in moderate qualities; bu
Bourbon whiskey hasteps on instead OF curing
consumption.
The Seaweed Tome produces lasting results
thoroughly nvigorating the stomach and di
] gestive system, and enabling it to eliminate ant
make into healthy blood the food which may b
used for that purpose. 1t is so wonderful II
its effects that wineglass full will digest

The MANDRAKE PILLS may be taker
with entire safety by all ages and conditions

medicines and without any OF their hnrtful o.
INJURIOUS results. They carry out of the sys

and dissolved by my Seaweed Tonic and Pull
n,onic Syrup. 1t will be seen that all three o
my medicines are needed in most cases to cur,
Consumption.
