Sc1,cnck.s Seaweed Tonic,

This medicine, invented by Doctor J. II. Schenck,
of Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve the food
and make it into CHIME, the first process of diges
ton By cleansing the stomach with Schenck's
Mandrake Pills. the Tonic soon restores the appe-
tite and food that could not be eaten before using
it will be easily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schcnck's Pull
monte Syrup unless the stomach and liver is made
healthy and the appetite restored, hence the Tonic
and Pills are required in nearly every case of
sumption half dozen bottles of the SEAWEED
TONIC and three or four boxes of the MAN
DRAKE PILLS will cure any ordinary case Of
dyspepsia.
DR.. scHRNcK makes professional visits in New
York, Boston, and at his principal oficein Phil
adelpha every week. See daily papers of each
place, or his pamphlet on consumption for his
days for visitation.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
licensees of the Doctor, when in the last
stage of Consumption, and the other as he now
is in perfect health arc on the Government stamp.
Sold by all Druggists and Dealers, price l.5O
per bottle, or $3.50 the haf-dozen. All letters for
advice should be addressed to DR.. Sehenck's Prin-
