 THE HISTORY OF DR SCHENCK'S OWN a CASE, aNDHoW HE WAS CURED OF
 CONSUMPTION.
 Many years ago, whilst residing in Philadel- phia, had progressed gradually into the last stage of Pulmonary Consump ption. All hopes of my recovery being dissipated, I was advis- ed by my physician, Dr. Parrish, to remove in.o the country. Moorestown. New Jersey, being the place of mv nativity, I was removed t1lther. My father and all his fami- lv had lived and died there-and died of Pull monary Consumption. On my arrival I was put to bed where I lay tor many weeks in what was deemed hopeless 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 appaaently lyl hopeless conditiong heard of the remedies which now make and sell. It seell- ed to 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 actiols and the morbid matter which for years had accumulated and irritated the different organs of the body was eliminated the tubercles on my lnngst tripened, and l. I-expectorsted from my lungs as much as pint of yellow offens- 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 nght-sweats were no longer known. and had refreshing sleep, te
 which had long been-a stranger. My appe- tite now began to return, and at times fo and Lit difficult to restrain myself from eating too much with this return of health, gained in strength, and now am heshy. I am now a 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. The left lung is sossnd .lland the
 upper lobe of the right one is in a tolerably healthy condition.
 Consumption It that time was thought to be an incurable disease by every one, physi- clans as we'll as those who were unlearned in medicine espe cialfy such cases as were reduced to the condition was in. This induced many
 people to believe my recovery only temporary now prepared and gave the medicines to l consumptives for some time, and made many l wonderful cures end the demand increased so 1 rapidly, that determined to offer them to the public, and devote my, undivided attention to 1 lung diseases. In truth, was next to forced 1 to it. for people would send for me far and
 near. to ascertain whether their cases were like
 mine. A For many years, in conjunction with my principal officez in Philadelphia, have been
 making regular professional visits to New York. Boston, Baltimore. and Pittsburg. 1 S{Fof several years past, l have made as ma fny as five hundred examinations, weekly with the Respirometer" For such examination
