Having for the last thirty fvey wears devoted

/ diseases and consumption, / feel that under
stand fully the course that ought to be pursued
TO restore d tolerablv bad ease of diseased Iunrs

and the best OF all places on this con tnent for

State, where the tenn perature il regular; and not

My advice to persons whose lungs affected

| Now there are many Consumptives who have
not the means to go to Florida. The question
may be asked, is there no hope for such? Ger

with temperature Of ABOUT seventy degrees,
which should be kept regular al point, By

| ofwhat seemed to be hopeless cases OF consump-
| ton. Go where you will, you will be almost
certain to find some poor consumptiTe who has
been cured from the very jaws OF death oy their

So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned,
everybody should keep supply OF them on
