uelphia. and indeed of the country ia DR.. J. H.
eonenck, who by strict integrity and indomit-
aoie energy and perseverance,, has built up for
himself name Of which his children and his
tellow-cltizens may equally feel proud. He has
spent thirty years in the manufacture OF his
renowned medicines--tae Seaweed Tonic, Pul
monic Syrup, aud Mandrake Pills; and deeply
sensible of their value as valuable specifics, he
spared no expense in introducing them
into the worlds market. After deyoting
twenty years of his life in this labor,
ha- commenced to reap the reward,
and has con- nue. until now he is in possession
OF magnificent fortune, aud an honored mem
Der of large circle of friends aud aoquaint-
ances. In order 10 accumulate wealth he must
have secured the confidence of the community,
and In order 10 do this ne must have had good
article, aud IL must have been according to his
representations, for it is we'll known that
people once deceived will never give the same
individual another chance to violate their con.

The medicines compounded by nr. Schenck

himself was the party operated on. When quite
young man he became aware that he was q
prey to the most insdious of diseases, con-
sumption, and he was treated by eminent ply
sciaus, both in this and other countries. Finally
he began treating himself and in q short time
he gained in flesh and strength, and has con
tinued in good health This favorable, happy,
vet unexpocicdi result of his own specifics upon
himself not only convinced him Of the
real value of his consumption medi-
cines," but also induced like
belief in the minds of the general public.
He saved himself from the rayages sure to
result, If unchecked, in death-of chat destroyer,
and then gave the benefit OF bis discoveries
first to his own country, then to the world at
large. The fact that he, although far gone in
health, almost beyond the hope of recovery
was saved, yields The most hatterlng assurance
to those in the incpient stages of the disease,
that they can, by the use of the
medicines which succeeded IN his case,
recover health and vigor. But then it must
be borne in mind that his case may have been
peculiar one-one to which his specifics were
exactly adapted. They may be, to be sure,
equally as well adapted to other cases as far
advanced in danger as his, but the sooner their
curative properties are applied the more rapid
must be their happy effect, and the more
quickly will the person who takes them be
restored to health. These are facts, and carry
their own argument. Do not wait until your
lungs have disappeared in expectorated blood,
and your frame has wasted away into shadowy
emaciation, before you fly to measures of relief
and prospective cure. Dr.. Schenck himself,
Notwithstanding his faith in the applicability of
his medicines evensto desperate cases, advises
all threatened with consumption not to delay,
but to at once obviate any further advance of
the disease by destroying its first symptoms.
The experience OF thousands testifes that for
ha 0f fha Orit in1i Of q tho
approach of the disease DR.. Schencks medi-
cines have prevailed; and surely in the light of
the recoveries they have effected, they are
worthy of trial. As standard specifics they
can De procured anywhere. We copy the fol-

satisfaction of feeling that his present immense
