 THE HISTORY OF DR. SCHENCK'S OWN | CASE, 4 ND HOW HE WAS CURED OF CONSUMPTION.
 Many years ago, whilst residing in PhiIadel- phia. had progressed gradually into the last stage uf Pulmonary Consum ption. All hopes of my recovery being dissipated, was advis- ed by my physician, Dr. Parrish, to remove in:o the country. Moorcstown, New Jersey, being the place of my nativity, I was removed tLither. My father and all his fami- iy 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 iif his last illness, was called to see me. He thous ht my case entirely beyond the reach of medicine, and decided that must die, and gave me one week to arrange my temporal affails. In this apparently hopeless condition, heard of the remedies which now make and sell. It seehI ed to me that could feel them working their way, and n.iratng every nerve, fibre, and tissue of my s! stem.
 My lungs and liver put on a new actioL, | 1 T s.L G.. T. accumulated and irritated the different organs of the body was eliminated, the tubercles oh
 my lungs ripened, and I expectorated from my lungs as much as pint of yellow ofens- 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, te which had long been stranger. My appe- lite now began to return, and at times fo md it difficult to restrain myself from eating too much with this return of health, gained in strength. and now am feshy. l am now d healthy man, with large healed cicatrix in the middle lobe of the right lung and the low CT lobe hepatized with complete adhesion of the pleura Ihelett lung is so"nd, and the upper lobe of the right one is in tuierably healthy condition l
 Consumption at that time was thought to
  clans as well as those who were unlearned in medicine-esp. cially such cases as were reduced to the conditionI was in. This induced many people to believe my recovery only temporary I now prepared and gave the medicines to eonsumptiV for some time, and made many
 wonderful cures and the demand increased So | rapidly, that determined to offer them to the
 public and devote my undivided attention to | lung diseases. In truth, was next to forced 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, I have been
 making regular professional visits to New
 York, Boston, Baltimore. aud Pittsburg. | For several years past. I have made as ma
 ny as five hundred examinations, weekly with
 the Respirumeter ''sq For such examination
 my charge is thr, e dollars, and it enables me f to give each patient the condition of his dis
 ease. and tell him frankly whether he will get

 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 I SO doing, they derange the whole digestive I system, locking mp the secretions, and eventu-
 ally the patient dies. sstI9 | The Puimonic Syrup is one of the most val | uable medicines known. It is nutrient, pow erfully tonic and healing in itself It con
 tains no opium, yet loosens the phlegm in the
 bronchial tubes, and nature throws it of Ewith little exertion /; one bottle frequently
 cures an ordinary col, :; but it will be well , first to take dose of Schencks Mandrake Pills to cleanse the stomach. The Pulmonic ISyrup is readily digested and absorbed into | blood, to which it imparts it's healing proper
 ties It is one of the best preparations of iron [ in use it is a powerful tonic of itself; and | when the Seaweed Tonic dissolves the Ducus
 in the stomach and is carried off by the aid of
 the Mandrake Pills, healthy flow of gastric
 juice, good appetite, and good digestion fol- 1 low. Ls The Seawecd Tonic is stimulant, and none
 other is required when it is used It is pure l and pleasant no bad effects like when using I Bourbon whisky, which disorders the stom- ach, torpers the liver, locks up. all the secre-
 tions, turns the blood into water, dropsy set i iu, and the patient dies suddenly.
 Bourbon whisky is recommended now-a-
 days by almost every physician Many pa
 tients that visit my rooms, both male and fe-
 male, are sturifed with this poison. The re- 1 lief is temporary. If they cough, they take a
 little whisky if they feel weak and feeble, l they take a little whisky; if they cannot sleep, they takea little whisky; and they go on in 1 this way requiring more and more until they are bloated up, and imagine they are getting feshy The stomach, liver, and digestive pow CTS are completely destroyed, and lose their l appetite for food No one was ever cured of consum ption by this process, where cavities have been formed in the lungs. A little stimu- lant is frequently beneficial to consumptives, l such as pure brandy or good wines,i 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 invigoratng the stomach and di- gestive 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 it's effects that wineglass full will digest hearty neal and little of it taken before breakfast, will give tone to the stom- ach, which few medicines possess the power of doing. ,: N
 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-, iurisus results. They carry out of the system the feculent and worn-eut matters loosened and dissolved by my Seaweed Tonic and Pull monic Syrup. It will be seen that all three of my n edicines- are needed in most cases to cure Consumption. , Ea
