TIE HISTORY OF DR.. soHENCK's OwN
CASE, AND HOW RE WAS CURED
OF CONSUMPTION.
Many years ago, while residing IN Ph}sde.-
phil, had progrts sed gradually into the last
stage Of Pulmonary Consumption. All hopes OF
my recovery being 6issipattd, was advised by
my physician, DR.. Parrish, 10 remove into the
country, Moorestown, New Jersey, being ny
native place, was removed thither. My father
and al hi family had nvel and died there, and
died OF Pulmonary Consumption. On my arri-
val was put 10 bed, where ! lay for many
weeks in what was deemed hopeless condition
DR.. Thornton, who had been my fathers family
ply stefan, and had ATTENDED him in his last i'll
ness, was called to SEE me, He thought my case
entirely beyond the reach Of medicine, and d.
cided that must die, and gave one week 20

hopeless condition, ] heard Of the comedies

me. the cough ceased 20 harrsss me. and the ex-

healed cicatrix in the middle lobe OF the right
lung and the lower lobe hepatized with complete
adhesion Of the ploura. The lief. lung is sound,
and the upper lobe of - right one is in tole-
rably healthy condition.
Consumption at that time was thought TO be
an incurable disease by every one, physicians as
yell as those who were unlearned in medicine
especially such cases as redu ed TO the con-
dition I was in. This induced many people to be-
leve my recovery only temporary. l now pre-
pared and gave the medicines to consumptlves
for some time, and made many wonderful cures
and the demand increased so rapidly that / de-
termined TO offer them to the Iublic, and devote
my undivided attention to lung diseases. In

send for me far al d near, TO ascertain whether
their cases were like mine.

cipal Office in Philadelphia, have been making
regular professional visits to New York, Boston,
Baltimore and Pitsburg.
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 to give
each patient the true condition of his disease,

night-sweats hectic fever, and by so doing they

able medicines known. 1t is nutrient, powerful.
