DIR. SCHENCK advises COMsumptiyes 20
go to Florida i'm Winter.

Having for the last thirty five years devoted my
whole time and attention to the study of lung diseases
and consumption, feel that understand fully the
that ought to be pursued to restore toerubly
bad case OF diseased lungs TO healthy soundnesS. The
first and important step is for the pa avoid
taking cold and the best OF all places this continent
for this purpose in winter is Florida, well down in the
State, where the temperature is regular and not sub
ject to such variations IN more Northern ATTITUDES.

jacksonville, lIbernia Green Cove and many other
sumpves in winter. My saying so are that
places in Florida be safely recommended to con-
patients less liable TO take cold there than whore
there less even temperature, and it rs not necessary
to that where consumptive person exposes himself
to frequent colds he is certain to die shortly Therefore
my advice is go well down into the State, OF the
reach OF prevailing east winds and fogs. Jacksonville,
almost any other of the localities have named will
benefit those who troubled with torpid liver dis
ordered stomach deranged bowels throat cough
but for those whose lungs diseased southern
point is earnestly recommended.
For 10 years prior to 1869 was professionally in New
York, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia every week
where saw and examined on average 500 patients

BILE phase OF lung disease, has enabled understand
the disease fully and hence my caution in regard
taking cold person may take vast quantities OF
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Man
drake Pills and yet die he does not avoid taking cold
III Florida nearly everybody is using Schencks
Mandrake Pills, for the climate is more
likely to produce bilious habits than more north
ern latitudcs. 1t is n well established fact that
natives of Florida rarely die of consumption especially
those of the southern part On the other hand in New
England one-thrd at least of the population die of this
terrible disease In the Middle States it does not prevail
SO largely Still there are many thousands of cases
there. What vast per centage of life would be saved
ifconsunptiyes were as easily alarmed in regard to ia
king fresh cold as they abont scarlet small poX,
&c But they not. They take what they term lit
tic cold which they credulous enough to beless will
off in few days. They pay attention to it and
hence lays the foundation for another and other STILL
until the lungs diseased beyond all hope for cure
My advice to persons whose lungs are affected even
slightly is to lay in stock of Schencks Pumonc Syrup
Schencks Seaweed Tonic and Schoncks Mandrake Pills
and go to Florida. recommend these particular med
cnes because am thoroughly acquainted with their
action. know that where they used in strict
cordance with my directions they will do the work that
is required This accomplished nature will do the rest
The physician who prescribes for cold, cough night
sweas and then advises the patient to walk ride
every day, will be to have corpse his hands be-
fore long.
My plan is to give my medicines in accordance with
the printed directions except in where
use of the Mandrake Pills is necessary My object
to give tone to the stomachto get up good appetite

Now there are many consumplyes who have not the
means to to Florida The question may be asked is
there hope for such? Certainly there is My advice
to such is, ans ever has been to stay in
during the winter with temperature of about seventy
degrees which should be kept regularly at that point
by means OF % Thermometer. let such patient take
his exercise within the limits of the by walking

if it is taken in time the proper kind of treat

that Schencks Pulmonc Syrue Mandrake Pills, and
seaweed Tonic have cured many of what seemed
be hopeless of consumption. Go where you will,
you will be almost certain to find poor consump-
tive who has been rescued from the very jaws of death
by their use.
So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned every.
