DR. J. II. SCHENCK.
DEAR SIRs-I feelita duty oweto you, and to all
who suffering under the diseases known Consump
tion and Liver Complaint let them know what great
benefits have received from your Pulmonic Syrup and
Sea-weed Tonic in short time By the blessing of
God it has cured me thus far.
Dr. Schenck, will now make my statement to you,
follows About eighteen months ago was attacked
with cough and it settled on my lungs; could
not retain anything ate and suffered with evening fe
and night sweats. very much reduced. The
whites of my eyes We're very yellow; likewise my skin;
my appetite all gone, and unable to digest what did
eat bowels swollen, Irregular and costVe. very
low spirited, and had such violent spells of coughing
when laid down atnght and when arose in the morn
ing that they would last one or two hours.
] then would be nearly exhausted, and entirely
unable to lie my left side. cannot describe my
wreched suffering as would wish to do. Every organ
in my body was diseased or deranged. Such was my
situation at this time and was confined to my bed from
the last of February 1862 to june 1862 not able to sit
up had the best of medical attendance the whole of
the time. My cough very bad that it racked me
very much / at this time raised large quantity of
thick yellow, offensive MATTER sometimes with blood
and it generally accompanied by and afurred
and thick coated tongue. At the time of coughing so
badly would have sharp shooting pains in my left
side and heart night sweats and all through
my whole chest; had much inward fever, pain in my
back and under shoulder blades and in the small of
my back and at times so severe that would throw me
into spasms. Now my physician gave me up to die
Others had, and the best of them but they could do
nothing for me- and at that time nothing but skin
and bones then was in the western part of Missouri
In June last left there for the East, in August
last we came to New York, and was reduced that
could only walk little with my husbands help
After had been here short time the salt water breeze
made me feel much better for time, and then had
again to call phys for aid. We had four of the
best physicians in New York on the diseases of the
lungs and doctors of all kinds, but of avail They
said past cure and that my lungs too far gone
for any one to me. But at this time my
feet about the house. not able to do much of anything
In November last grew worse, and the consumption
darrhea set in and lasted about eight weeks We had
tried all and everything hatI could grasp at like dy
ing person for my diseases-consumption and liver
complaint-but of no avail
In January, 1868, 1 was brought down again on my
bed, and was not expected to live the night out. My
husband stayed at my side and other friends and they
all give me up to die. At this time every who saw
did not think would ever leave my bed living
man The first night was attacked with spasms, and
deranged most of the time. A FRIEND Mrs Harris
came to the last of the week and brought the
Sunday Mercury. In it was account of great cure
performed by Dr. Schenck She read to me- and
much like my disease that asked my husband to go
and see him for me. At this time had given up all
hopes of ever getting well again. and made my peace
with God, to be ready whenever he called for me.
On the 9th of January, 1868, my husband called
DR.. Schenck 80 Bond Street, New York. and stated te
him my case, with request for him to call and see me
which he did, and examined me with the resprometer
When he about to go asked him if he could cure
me? His reply was : cannot tell both lungs are di
seased, and the bronchial tubes affected botl
Sides And yet he seemed to think there lungs
enough left to effect if the darhea could be stop
ped He said in order to do this, he would have to give
Mandrake Pills in small doses at first, to carry of
the morbid matter and them with astringents he hoped
to check it, which he did, but the constant coughing
night sweats and diarrhea had Frustrated that hi
was afraid my vital powers too much FRUSTRATED
to rally and yet he seemed to think if could live
to get enough Pumonic Syrup through my system tt
expectoraton there lungs enough left for
to recover He wished to try the Pulmonic Syrul
and Seaweed Tonic at once, saying it would do
harm, if it did me no good The first week it seemed
to give strength that Sunday after sat up in
bed and ate hearty for sick woman but the next week
lost all hope and wished my husband not to give
any medicine. But the doctor had warned him O.
