The Three Remedies. 'schenek's Ppluo,;.
Syrup" for the cure of Coughs, Colds, Brouohi,;.
and every form Of Consumption. The pecub.,
action Of this medicine ripens the ulcers in ,he
lungs, promotes the discharge Of the corrupt
matter By expectoration, purihes the blood. and
thus cures Consumption, when every other rem
edy fails.
"echenck's sesweed Tonic" for the cure of
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, and all diseases aris-
ing from debility. This tonic invigorates the
digestive organs, supplies the place of the gas
trio juice when that 10 deficient, and then enables
the patient to digest the most nutritious food IL
is n sovereign remedy for all cases of indiges-
ton.
"Sehenckis Mandrake Pills" one Of the most
valuable medicines ever discovered. being a veg
etable substitute for ealomel, and having all the
useful properties ascribed 20 that mineral, with
out producing any of it's injuriou. effects.
To these three medicines DIR. J. ii. Schenek,
Philadelphia, owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of Pulmonic Consumption. The Pul
monte Syrup ripens the morbid matter, dis
charges il, and puri6es the blood. The Mandrake
Pills act upon the liver, remove all obstructions
therefrom, give the organ . healthy tone, and
cure Liver Complaint which is one of the most
prominent causes of Consumption.
The Sea Weed Tonic invigorates the powers of
the stomseh, and by Strengthening the digestion
and bringing il TO a normal and healthy eondi-
ton improves the quality Of the blood, by which
means the formation Of ulcers or tubercles in the
.Sngs becomes imp ssible. The combined action
OF these medicines, a. thus explained, will cure
every case Of Consumption, if the remedies are
used IN time and the use OF them Is per,eyer.d
in sufhciently to bring the case to a favorable
termination.

To Suffering Mothers,

The agony that some young mothers undergo
from the Gazing of milk in the breasts, ulcers
ton Of the nipple and other painful affections OF
the namillary organs, is extreme. And yet a
lew APP lioations of the Ointment would remove
the difficulty and enable the sufferers TO resume
the maternal function and continue TO exercise 1;
without interruption or pain. As the life Of the
child IS well ss the health of the mother may
depend on her ability to nurse it, this fact. which
ia verified by ample testimony, should be treas
