Puimcnic syrup, Seawted Tonic and Mandrake

The emaciAtion st;enca ant under pre-existing
eircuMstances Is because OF the impoverished
condition Of the blood. The stomach ceased its
natural function. and the vital fluid was watery
and unsustsining. Even with an appetite toler-
ably good, 1t is impossible fer organs so seri-
ousiy impaired TO give the requisite vitality 10

The philosophy Of the ~varioAs schools OF med

ministered by the adherants of the so-called
schools OF medicine, 10 stop the chills, the
night sweats, aud the coughing that are the pre-
cursors OF pulmonary consumption, are too vio-
lent. The patient must inevitably sink and die.
