UNRIvALLED SUCCESS

In the treatment of Pulmonary Consumption
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid mater
in the lungs, nature throws it off by an easy
eIpectoration, for when the phlegm or matter
is ripe, slight cough will throw it of, and the
patient has rest, and the lungs begin TO heal.
To do this, the seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup aud TODD
will MAKE good blood.

THE GREAT REASON

Why physicians do net cure Consum ption is,
they try to do too much; they give melcines to
stop the cough, to stop chills, TO stop night
sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they
derange the whole digestive powers, locking up
the secretions, and eventually the patient sinks
and dies.
DR.. SCHENCK, in his treatment, does not try
to stop cough, night sweats, ehills, or fever.
Remove the cause, and they will all stop OF their
own accord. No one can be cured OF Consump-
tiop, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Can.
ker liberated Throat, unless the liver and
stomach are made healthy.
If a person has consumption, OF course the
lungs are in some way diseased, either tuber-
Cles, assesses, bronchial irritation, plueral
adhesion, or the lungs are mass of inha nma-
tion and fast decaying In such cases what
must be done? 1t is not only the lungs that
are wasting, but it is the whole body. The
stomach and liver have lost their power to
make blood ont of food. Now the only chance
is to take DR.. SCHENCK'S three medicines,
which will bring up tone to the stomach,
the patient win want food, 1t will digest easily
and make good blood; then the patient begins
to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body begins
10 gIow the lungs commence to heal up, and
the patient gets fieshy and well. Tais is the
only way to cure Consumption.
WHEN THERE Is NO LUNG DISEASE,
And only Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia,
Schenck's Seaveed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills are sufficient, without the Pn-
