THE HISTORY OF DR. ScHENcKs OWN OAsE.
AND HOW He WAS cuKED OF COSsUMPToN.
Many years ago, whist residing in Philidel-
phia, had progressed gradually into the last
stage Of Pulmonary Consumption. All hopes
of my recovery being dissipated, was advised
by my physician. DIR. Parrish, to remove into
the country MOorestown, New Jersey, being
my native place was removed theither. NV
father and all his family had lived and died
there-and died Of Pulmonary Consumption
On my arrival | was put to bed, where Law
for 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 appearantly hopeless condition,
/ heard of the remedies which now make and
sell II seemed to me that l could feel them
working their way, and penetrating every nerve
| fibre, and tissue of my system.
NY lungs and liver put on new action, and
| the morbid matter which for years had accuu-
ulated and irritated the different organs Of the
/ body, was eliminated, the tubercles of my lungs
| ripened. and / expectorated from my lungs ss
much as pint of yellow offensive matter every
morning. As this exDectoration of matter sub
sided, the fever abated, the pain left me, the
cough ceased to harrass me, and the exhausting
night-sweets were no longer known, and I had
refreshing sleep, to which / had long been
/ stranger. My appetite now began to return,
and at times | found 1t difficult to restrain NY
1 self from eating too much; with this return of
health, gained,in strength, and now am heshy.
am now healthy man, with q large healed
cicatrix in the middle lobe of the right lung and
| the lower lobe hepatized 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 uedi-
i
/ the condition | was in. This induced manv
| people to believe my recovery only temporary
l now prepared and gave the medicine to con
I 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 Il,
for people wound send for me far and near, TO
ascertain whether their cases were like mine.
/ 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
4 as five hundred examinations weekly with the
i"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 viii get well
/ 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 system, lock-
ing up the secretions, and eventually the patient
/ dies.
| The Pulmonc Syrup is one of the most val
liable medicines known. 1t is nutrient, power
| fully tonic, and healing in itself. 1t contains
no opium, yet loosens the phlegm in the bronch-.
ial tubes and nature throws it off with little ex-
| eTLlOn. On6 Dotll6 frequently cures an OrCl1-
airy cold; but it will be well first to take dose
| of Schenck's Mandrakes Pills to cleanse the
stomach. The Pulmonic Syrup is readily di-
1 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

ried off by the aid Of the Mandrake Pills,

good digestion follow.
The Seaweed Tonic is a stimulant, and none
other is required when it is used. II is pure

Bourbon whisky, which disorders the stomach.

turns the blood into water, drOpsy sets in, and
the patient dies suddenly.
| Bourbon whiskey is recommended nOw-a-
/ days by almost every physician Many patients
that visit nyrOOms, both male and female, are
/ stupefied with this poison. The relief is ten
porary. If they cough they take little whis
ky; if they feel weak and feeble they take a
| little whisky; if they cannot sleep they take =
( little whisky; and they go on in this way, re-
/ quiring more and more until they are bloated
up, and imagine they getting fieshy. The
stomach, liver, and digestive powers are COM
! pletely DESTROYED, and lose their appetite for
/ food No one was cured of consumption
! by this process, where cavities have been form
ed in the lungs. A little stimulant is frequent

consumption
The Seaweed Tonic produces lasting results.
thoroughly Inyigorating the stomach and dr.
gestive system, and enabling it to eliminate and
make into healthy blood the food which may be
used for that purpose. 1t is so wonderful in
It's effects that wineglass full will digest a

breakfast viii give tone to the stomach which
few medicines possess the power Of doing.
The MANDRAKE PILLS may be taken
with entire safety by all ages and conditions,
producing all the good results that can be OBJ
iained from ealomel or any OF the Tnercurial
medicines, and without any OF their hurtful or
injurious results. They carry out Of the sys-
tenn the feculent and wOrn-Out matters lOOsened

my medicines are needed in most cases to cure
Consumption.
