| TIE HIsToRY or DR. SoHESCKs OWN CAsg.
| AND how WAS CURED or CoNsUNFTION.
| Many yesrs ago. whilst residing IN Pbilidel-
/ phis, had progressed gradually into the last
stage of Pulmonary Consumption. All hopes
/ Of my recovery being dissipated, was advised
/ by my physician, DR.. Parrish. to remove into
the country. MoorestowD, New Jersey, being
I 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 ] lay
| for many weeks in what was deemed hopeless
condition DIR. Thornton, who had been my
| fathers family physician, and had attended him
| In his last illness, was called 10 see me- He
thought my case entirely beyond the reach OF
medicine, and decided that ] must die. and
gave one week TO arrange my temporal
affairs In this appesrsntly hopeless condition,
/ heard of the remedies which ] now make and
SELL II seemed to me that l could feel them
working their wsy, and penetrating every nerve,
fibre, and tissue of my system. ----
My lungs and liver put on new action, and
the morbid matter which for years had accuua-
ulated and irritated the different ergsns of the
body, was eliminated, the tubercles Of my lungr
ripened, and / expectorated from my lungs as
much as pint of yellow offensive matter every
morning. As this expectOration Of matter sub
sided, the fever abated, the pain left me- the
cough ceased to hsrrsss me, and the exhausting
night-sweets were no longer known, and had
refreshing sleep, TO which ] had long been
stranger. My appetite now began TO return,
and at times / found it difficult to restrain nv
self from eating too much; with this return Of
health, gained in strength, and now am heshy.
| am now a healthy man, with large healed
ccatrix in the middle lobe of the right lung and
the lower lobe hepatized with complete adhe-
sion of the pleurs. 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 medi-
cine-especially such cases as were reduced 10
the condition l was in. This induced many
people I'd Dei6Nb my recovery only TEMPORARY.
; ] nov prepared and gave the medicine to con.
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
lic and devote my undivided attention to lung
diseases In truth | was next TO forced 10 Il,
for people wound send for me far and near, 10
ascertain whether their cases were like mine.
For many years, in conjunction with my
principal office in Philadelphia, | have been
Boston, Baltimore, and Pittsburg.
For several years past l have made as many
as FIVE hundred examinations weekly with the
"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 will 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 uight-swests hectic fever, and by so doing
they derauge the whole digestive system, lock-
ing up the secretiOns, and eventually the patient
dies.
The Pulmonic Syrup is Que Of the most val
liable medicines known. Itis Dutrient, power
fully tonic, and healing IN itself. It contains
| no opium, yet lOOsens the phlegm in the broncb-
ial tubes and nature throws it off with little ex
: ertiop. One bottle frequently cures an ordiB-
ary cold; hut it will be well first to take dose
! of Schenck's Mandrakes Pills to cleanse the
stomach. The PulmOnIc Syrup is readily d.
gested and absorbed into blood, to which Il i'm
parts its healing properties. IL is one of the
best preparations Of iron in use; it is powerful
tonic Of itself; aud whss the Seaweed Tonic
dissolves the mucus in the stomach, and is car
ried of by the aid Of the Mandrake Pills, .
healthy flow of gastric juice, good appetite and
good digestion follow.
The Seaweed Tonic rs stimulsnt, and none
other is required when it is used. IL is pure
and pleasant; no bad effects like when using
Bourbon whisky, which disorders the stomach,
torpers the liver, locks up all the secretiOns,
turns the blood into water, dropsy sets in, and
the patient dies suddenly.
Bourbon whiskey is recommended now-s-
days by almost every physician Many patients
that visit my rooms, both male and female are
stupefied with this poison. The relief is tenn
porsry. If they cough they take little whis-
XIV: II they feel weak and feeble they take a
little whisky; if they cannot sleep they take a
little whisky; and they go in this way, re-
quiring more and more until they are blOated
up, and imagine they are getting ieshy. The
stomach, liver, and digestive powers are COM
pletely destroyed, and lose their appetite for
food. No one was ever cured of consumption
by this process, where cavities have been FORM
ed in the lungs. A little stimulant is frequent
, ly beneficial to cOnsumptives, such as pure
brandy or good wines: in many cases London
porter or brown stout in moderate qualities; but
Bourbon whiskey hastens on instead of curing
consumption
: The Sesweed Tonic produces lasting results
thoroughly nvigorating the stomach and di-
gestive system, and enabling it to eliminate and
make into healthy blood the food which may bt
used for that purpose. 1t is 80 wonderful in
its effects that wineglass full will digest :
hearty meal, and little Of it taken before
breakfast viii give tone to the stomach which
few medicines possess the power of doing.
The MANDRAKE PILLS may be take,
with entire safety by all ages and conditions
producing all the good results that can be OBJ
f., tanned from ealOmel, or any of the mercuris
medicines, and without any of their hurtful OF
injurious results. They carry out of the sys-
TEN the feculent and wOrn-Out matters loosened
and dissolved by my Seaweed Tonic and Pull
monic Syrup Ii will be seen that all three Ol
NV medicines are needed in most cases to cure
Consumption.
