Tie history Of Or. Sckeaek,s owa case, and
hon. he 'eas cured Of Consumption.
Many years ago, whilst residing in Philad-
elptia, had progressed gradually into the
last stage of Pulmonary Consumption. All
hopes Of my recovery being dissipaied, was
advised by my physician. DIR. Parrish, to re-
move into The country. Moores,own, \. J..
being my native place, was removed thith-
er. My father and al his family had lived
and died there and died of Pulmonary Con-
SUMPTION. On nv arrival was put TO he'd.
where ! lay many weeks in what was deemed
a hopeless condition. Or. Thornton. who
had been my fathers family physician, and
had attended him in MS last illness, was call
ed to se,' ME. He thought nv case entirely
beyond the reach of medicine, and decided
that must de. and gave me one week to
arrange my temporal AFFAIRS. In this appar-
entity hopeless condition, heard Of the RENE
: dies which | ION make and sell II seemed
10 me that | could feel them working their
way. and penetrating every nerve, fibre, and
tissue of my system.
| My lungs and liver put on a new action.
and the M rbia matter which for wears had
accumulated and irriiatei the different organs
! of the body, was eliminated, the tubercles on
my lungs ripensd. and | expectorated from
my lungs a. much as pint of yellow often
sive matter ererv morning. As this expect
Grafton OF matter subsidized. the fever abated.
, the pain Jeff ME, the cough ceased to harass
me. and the exhausiing night-swea,s were nc
longer known, ard had refreshing s,eep, to
which L had long been stranger. My ai,-

cicatlix in the middle LOBE of the right lung
and the lower lobe hepatized with complete
adhesion of the eleura. Tie left lung is
sound, and the upper lobe of the right one is
in iolerably healthy condition.
| Consumption at that time was thought to
! be an incurable disease by every he, physiei-
ans as we'll as those who were Gnlearned il

duced many people TO believe nv recovery

the medicines 10 cnnsumptlves for some time.

demand increased so rapidly, that | deter

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 sys-
TEN. locking up The secreliOns. and eventual
! ly the patient dies.
| The fulTonie Syrup is ore of the most
valuable medicines known. Ii is nutrient.
powerfully tonic and healing in itself. Ii
contains 20 opium, yet loosens the phlegm
in the bronchial tubes. and nature throws il

! first TO take dose of Sehenck's Mandrake
Pills TO cleanse the stomach. The Pulmonic
Syrup is readily digested snd absorbed into
blood, to which it lmparts lis healing proper
ties. 1t Is one of the best preparations of
iron in use; il is powerful tonic of itself ;
and when the Served Tonic dissolves the
mueus in the stomach, and is carried of by
the aid Of the Mandrake Pills, healthy flow
OF gastric Juice, good appetite, and a god
digestion follow.
The Seaweed Tonic is a stimulent, and
none other is required when it is used. l. is
pure and pleasant; no bad effects like when
using Bourbon whisky. which disorders the
stomach, torpors the liver. locks up all the
secretlons, turns the blood into water, dronsy
sets In, and The patient dies suddenly.
! The MANDRAKE PILLS NAV be taken
with entire safety by all ages and conditions,
producing all the great results that can be
obtained from calomel, or any of the mercu-
nal, medicines, and without any of their hurt-
iui or injurious results. They carry GU, of
the system the feculent and WORKOUT matters
loosened and dissolved by my Seaweed Tonic
and Pulmonic Syrup. 1t Will be seen that
all three of my medicines are needed in most
cases to cure Consumption.
