a GREAT CURE or CONSUMPTION
AND BLEEDING or THE LUNGS.
BY soHENCK's pUIMoNlo sYRUp.

Dear Sir-As you have cured my wife of
well-marked consumption, when she was, as
1t were, in the very jaws of death. justice to
yourself as well as duty to my fdllow-man,
impels me to address you this letter, and de-
tail the condition of my wife, and the very re-
markable effects Of your medicines in her case.
More than three years ago she was taken with
a copious bleeding from the lungs, attended
with very bad cough loss of appetite, pain
between her shoulders, headache, cold feet
and gradual decline of her physical powers.
i called in our family physician, who
is regarded as one OF the ablest prac-
titioners in this city. He continued to
attend her for long time, and during that
time she had several attacks of h@morrhage
from the lungs, which made her very weak
and brought her nigh the grave. 1t was when
felt that her chances for life were very bad,
that Mrs. Edward French, of Moorestown New
Jersey, who had been cured of consumption
and bleeding of the lungs and who knew DR..
Schenck when he had consumption and came
near dying, and knew he was cured with his
celebrated medicines, sent word to her by all
means to apply to DR.. Schenck, as he would
be sure to cure her. At this time my wife
was very bad. She was much reduced in flesh
and strength, had no appetite, a very bad
cough, which was SO distressing as nearly to
deprive her of sleep. She had pain and dis
tress in her lungs and it was evident to us
all that she was far gone with consumption;
in the afternoon she would have fever
and creeping chills, and at night
free sweats. After DR.. Schenck had
given her an examination with his
Respirometer, he pointed out to my wife the
part of her lungs that was badly diseased
She had little confidence at this time in any
remedies, as she had used nearly everything
in medicine without the least benefit, while
her disease was progressing to the destruction
of her vitals, and would, doubtless, soon ter
inmate in death. She commenced using the
PulmOnic Syrup, Mandrake Pills, and Seaweed
Tonic, and continued to use them about a
month, seeing DR.. Schenck once week, when
she experienced a marked improvement.
There was this difference in the effect of these
medicines from all others. Instead of drying
up the secretions and matter, as the other
medicines had done, they seemed to ripen the
matter and expel it in the form of expectora-
tion, which was very copious; at the same
time, the secretions were restored to their
natural and healthy condition, and the blood
began again to circulate naturally.
The medicines were continued long time,
as the disease was well seated and obstinately
resisted the action of the medicines. At
length the matter began to ripen, and the
cough became loose, and free discharge of
matter occurred right from the spot where my
wife felt that her lungs were diseased. Her
appetite and digestion improved, and she en-
ioyed what she had long been stranger to,
sweet and refreshing sleep. The medicines
continued to act upon her blood and purified
it, and after four or five months she had re-
gained her strength, and felt that her system
was purified from all disease. She is now well
and hearty, and able to attend to the duties of
her family, and cannot speak in terms of too
great praise of the virtues of your medicines.
She is desirous that everybody shall know
what they have done for her, and will be glad
to direct any one to the remedies that will
cure that fell destroyer of the human race,
and Mrs. Lanning or myself will be very
happy to have any one call on us, at our resi-
dence, and hear for themselves of the great
virtues of your very valuable medicines.
Yours, truly,
G. W. LANNNG.
