To cure Consumption, the system must be pre-

this, the liver and stomach must first be cleansed

ing up the constitution. ScHENcK's MANDRAKE
Pills cleanse the stomach Of all bilious or muce-
GUS accumulations and, by using the Sea w eed
Tonic in-connection, the appetite is restored.
ScHENcK's PuLMoNIo SYRUP snutricious az well

all impurities are expelled from the system, and
good, wholesome blood made, which will repel all

Take the pills frequently to cleanse the liver and
