READ THE EVIDENCE.

Facts are stubborn things" and it is
TO facts alone that IL is desired to direct
the attention of the readers OF this article.
Many years of severe and thorough prac-
tfcal trial nave demonstrated beyond the

medicines prepared by me and known as

have proved extraOr0in ariIy successful IN
gans, or what Is usually termed Consump-
ton.
We are told almost daily that Consungp-
ton, the scourge of the American people,
Is ineurable; that a man, whose lungs are
diseased, must be given over to die: that
he must abandon hope, and that the ar
rangement of his temporal as well as spir-
itual affairs should claim his earliest at
tenttOn. If there were not facts as unde-
niable as that the sun Will shine in a clear
heaven at midday to cOntrovert these ram
dom and, not unffequently, harmful aS5er-
tions, should fsel unwilling to take up the
gage of battle against them, but, fortified
with results facts which neither theory
nor mere assertion can OVerturn, propose
to prove that CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED,
and that the medicines / prepare-THE

An ounce of solid fact is worth a pound
of theory. Let me. therefore, present the
facts connected with my own individual
experience. Many years ago was con-
of other unfoItupates, was given up to die.
Eminent physicians pronounced my case
a hopeless one, and told me that II had
solemn event, that I had better make
them speedily. / believed this just as con-
fidently as did the persons who thus affec-
tionately informe ed me that my days were
numbered, and that recovery was impos-
sibie. Still, the desire to live fingered in
my bosom. was young, and chung to life
with the same tenacity that young men,
and old men, too, ordinarily do. did not
feel willing to abandon hope as long as a
single vestige OF 1t remained. L had tull
faith in the sad information conveyed to
me by my physicians but still there was q
lingering belief that something could be
done, though knew not in what direc-
ton to seek for the much desired relief.
Now. be 1t remembered, all these won
the medicines l prepare-Mandrake Pills,
Seaweed Tonic and Pulmonic Syrup. A
cure seemingly SO miraculous, naturally
those who knew me. I was literally be-
sieged on all sides. l had visitors daily
who besought me to give them the reme-
dies which had wrought the wonderful
restoration and had wreste me from tn 9
very jaws of death. Letters were received
by scores, impOrtuning me TO 1mpart the
secret and inform the writers where the
specifics for Consumption could be OBJ
tanned. Others, who were too weak TO
travel, not satisfied with writing sent for
and consulted me in regard to their cases.
To all these applications responded as
was able.
Full directions accompany each of
the medicines, so that it is not absolutely
necessary that patients should see me per-
soHally, unless they desire to have their
lungs examined. For this purpose I am
personally at my Principal Office, No. Is

thorough examination with the Respt-
rometer the price is five dollars.
