The History Of DR.. Scheach' S oma Case, &
ho,c he ,cdS cured OF Consumption.

pha. had progressed gradually into The last
stages of Pulmonary Consumption. All hopes
| of my recovery being dissipatcd l was advised
! by my physician, DR.. Parrish to remove into the
country. Moorstown New Jersey, being my
aud all his family had lived and died there--and
died of Pulmonary CONSUMPTION. on my arrl-
val was put to bed, where lay for many
weeks in what was deemed hopeless condi-
| ton. 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 ofmedicine
and decided that must die, and gave me one
week to arrange my temporal affairs. In this
apparently hopeless condition, heard of the
remedies which now make and sell. 1t seem
ed 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 now action aud
the morbid matter which for many years had
accumulated and irritated the different organs
my lungs ripcned and eXpectorated from my
lungs as much as pint of yellow offensive mat. .
matter subsidized, the fever nbatcd, the pain left
me, the cough ceased to harass me- and the ex-
and had refreshing sleep, to which had long
been stranger. My appetite now began to re-
turn, and at times found it difficult to restrain
myself from eating too much with this return
of health, gained in strength, and now am
ileshy; am now healthy man, with large
healed cicutriX in the middle lobe of the right
lung and the lower lobe hepatizod with COM
plete adhesion of the pieura.. The left lung IS
tole1biy healthy condition.
Consumption at that time was thought to be
an lnGurable disease, by every one physicians
as well as those who Were unleaTned in medi-
cine-especially such cases as were reduced TO
the condition / was in. This induced many
l now prepared and gave the medicines to con
sumptlVes forsome time and made many won
| IDLY that determined to offer them to the pub
lie, and devote my undivided attention to lung
for people would send for me far and near tc,
ascertain whether their cases were like mine.
For many years, in con junction will my prin-
cipal oflicein Philadelphia have been making
regular professional visits to New York, Boston
Baltimore and Pttsburg.
! Forsevera years past | have made as many
rs 1--WE hundred examinations weekly with the
"Respiromcter.' For such examination my
charge Is three dollars, and ii enables me t.
give each patient the true condition of his dis.
ease and tell him frankly whether he will get
well well Ihe great reason why physicians do not
much: they give medicine to stop the cough TO
StGp ne night sweatS, hectic fever, and by SO
locking np the secretions, and eventually the
patient dies.
The Pulmonic Syrup is one of the most valu.
able medicines known. II is nutrient, power
fully tonic, and healing in itself. 1t contains no
opium, yet loosens the phlegm in the bronchial
tubes, and nature throws it Off with little exer-
ton. one bottle frequently cures an ordinary
cold; but it will be wen first to take a dose OF
Schenck'S Mondrakc's Pills to cleanse the sto-
mach. The Pulmonic Syrup is readily digested
and absorbed into blood, to which 1t imparts its
healing properties. 1t is one of the best prepa-
rations ofron in use; it is a powerful tonic Of
itself and when the 'Seaweed Tonic dissoives
the mucuS in the stomach, and is carried off by
the aid of the Mandrake Pills, healthy flow OF
gastric juice, good appetite, and n good diges-
tion follow.
The Scaweed Tonic Is stimulant, and none
other Is required when il Is used. II is pure &
pleasalfy; no bad effects like when using Bour-
bon whisky, which disorders the stomach tor
nors the liver, locks up all the secretions, turns
the blood into water, dropsy sets in, and the pa
ttent dies suddenly.
Bourbon whisky is recommended nowadays
by almost oNery physicidn. Many patients that
visit my rooms, both male and female, are stu
plied with this poison. The reliefis temporary
II they cough they take little whisky; If they
feel weak and feeble they take a iittis whisky.
II they cannot sleep, they take a little whisky
and they go on in this way, requiring more and
more until they are bloated mp, and imagine
they are getting fieshy. The stomach, liver md
digestive powers are completely destroyed and
lose their appetite for food No one was ever
cured OF consumption by this process where
tie stirnulant Is frequently beneficial to con-
sumptlVeS, such as pure brandy good wine:
III many cases London porter or brown stout In
moderate quantities; but Bourbon whisky has
tens on instead of curing consumption.
The Seaweed Tonic produces lasting results
thoroughly invigorating the stomach and d.
gestive system, and enabling IL to eliminate 4
make into healthy blood the food which may
its eiIects tlat n wine glass full will digest a
nearly meal, and little of II taken before eat
ing VII give tone TO the stomach which few
medicines possess the power ofdoing.
The Mandrake Pills may he taken with entire
safety ny all ages and conditions, producing all
the good results that can be obtained from cal
omel, or any OF the mercurial medicines, and
without any of their hurtful or Injurious re-
suits They carry out ofthe system the fecuient
ana worn-out matters lOoSened and dissolved
by my Seaweed Tonic and Pulmonic Syrup. II

needed inmost cases to cure Consumption:
