is not necessary to say that whero consump-
tive person exposes himself to frequent colds,
he is certain to die shortly. Therefore, my
advice is, go well down into tho State. out of
the reach of prevailing East winds and fogs.

calities have named, will benefit those who
are troubled with torpid liver, disordcrcd
stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat or

My advice to persons whose lungs are

Tho physician who prcscribcs for cold, cough

NOW there are many consumptiyes who have

may be asked, is there no hope for such?
Certainly, there is. My advice to such il. and

seventy degrees, which should bo Kept
