Consumption Can be Cued



Facts are stubborn things and it isto facts alone
that iis desired to direetthe attention of theread
ers of this article.
Many years Of severe and thorough practical trial
have demonstrated beyond the peradventure of q
doubt, the fact that the medicines prepared by me
and known as SCHENCK's AIANDRAKE Pills, SEA-
WEED Tonic, and Sehenek's PULMoSIo SYRUP, have
proved extraordinarily successful in the cure Of
diseases Of the Pulmonary organs or what is usual
ly termed Consumption.
am fully aware that there are many persons
whose prejudices rule them so completely that
proofs strong as Holy Writ would fail to convince
them OF the efficacy OF my remedies; and that there
are others who, under no circumstances could be
prevailed upon to admit their merits, simply be-
cause such an admission would prove detrimental
TO their particular personal interests.
We are told almost daily that CoNsUNPr1oS the
seourge OF the American people, is neurable; that
man, whose lunge are diseased must be given ov-
er TO die: that he must abandon hope and that the
arrangement OF his temporal and spiritual affairs
should claim his earnest attention. Ii there were
not facts as undeniable as that the sun viii shine
IN clear heaven, at midday, TO cOntrovert these
random, and not unfrequentIy harmless assertions
should teel unwilling to take up the gage of bat
tie against them, but, fortified with resuts-faets
which neither theory nor mere assertion can over
turn, propose to prove that Consumption can be
cured, and that the medicines prepare-the Man

Let me, therefore, present the facts Connected with
my own Individual experience. Many years ago. 1
