IDR. SCHENCK ADVISES CON.
IL SUMPTIVES TO GO 70 FLORIDA IN
WINTER. 4.
Having for the last thirty.ave years devoted
my whole time and attention 10 the study Of lung
diseases and consumption, feel that under
stand fully the course that ought TO he pursued to
restore u iOlerAbly bad case OF diseased lungs to
healthy sCundness. The first and most import
ant step Ii for the patient TO avoid taking cold,
aud the best Of all places on this continent for
this purpose In winter, Is Florida, well down IN
the state, where the temperature Is regular, and
not subject To such variations as In more North
ern attitudes. PalatkR is point can recon-
mend A good hotel Is kept there by Peterman.
Last winter saw several persons thore whose
llntrs had been badly diseased, but who, under
the healing influence Of the climate and my med
icines, were getting well.
Ono hundred miles further down the river Is a
point which would prefer to PRlAtRR, rs the
temperature Is more even and the air dry and
bracipE, MellOnVillo aud Enterprise arc located
there. should give q decided preference to
MellOuvillG. II Ii two miles from river or lake:
and 1t seems almost impossible 10 take cold
there. Tho tables In Florida might be better,
and patients complain ut times, but that 10 good
Sign, Us It indicates return of appetite, and
when this is the case they generally increase In
flesh, aud then the lungs must heal.
Jacksonville, HibCrniA, Green Cove, and many
other places In various parts OF Florida, can b.
safely recommended to cOnsumptivcs In winter.
NV reasons fur saying so are that patients are
less liable to take cold there than where there IL
less even temperature, and It IL not necessary
TO say that where COnsumptiVe pGrEon exposes
himself to frequent colds he Is certain to die
shortly. Therefore my advice is, so well down
Into the State out Of the reach Of prevailing east
winds and fOgs. Jacksonville, or almost any
other OF the localities have named, will benefit
those who nrC troubled with torpid liver, q dis.
ordered stomach, derangCd bowels, sore throat
or cough, hut for those whose lungs arc diseased
more southern point is earnestly recon-
mendGd.
For fftCeu years prior to 1869, was PROBES.
sOnaly in New York, Boston, baltimore and
Philadelphia, every week, where saw and OK
amined on an average 1--WE hundred patients
week. A practice so extensive, embracing every
possible phase OF lung disease, has enabled me
10 understand the disease fully, and hence, my
caution In regard 10 taking cold. a person may
take vast quantities Of "SChcncks Pnlm0ntc
Syrup, SeAweGd Tonic and Mandrake Pills, g." and
vet do II he does not avoid taking cold.
In Florida, nearly everybody Is using SChenCk's
Mandrake Pills, for the climate is more likely to
produce bilious habits than moro northern lAti.
Iudes 1t IL 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.third, at least II tho p0pu-
lation, die OF this terrible disease. In the Md:
die States 1t does not prevail so largely, still
there arc many thousands OF cases there. What
a vast per ccntag0 OF life would be saved II con-
sumptfvcs were US easily alarmed in regard to
taking fresh cold US they arc about scarlet fever,
smOlI pox, &c. Bat they. arc not. They take
what they term little cold. which they arc cred'
ulous enough to believe will wear of in few
days. They pay no attention to It, and hence II
lAys the foundation for another and another still,
until the lungc ara diseased beyond all hope for

recommend these particular medicines because
am thoroughly acquainted with their action. |
SNOW that where they are used In strict accord
ancG with my directions they will do the work
that Is required. This accomplished, nature will
do the rest. The physician who prGscribGs for
cold, cough or nIghtswcats and then advises the
patient 10 walk or ride out every day. will be sure
10 have a corpse on his hands before long.
My plan Is to give my three medicines, In az
COrdalce with the printed directions, except In
some cases where u lrcer use OF the. Mandrake
Pills Is necessary. My object is to give tone to
the stOmaCh-tO get up good appetite. II Is
always u good sign when patient begins 10
grow hungry. ! have hopes OT such. Win II
relish for food and the qualification Of that relish
comes good blood and with 1t more flesh, which
Is closely followed BY healing OF the lungs.
Then the cough lOOsCls and abatcs, the creeping
Chills and ClAmmy night.Swcats no longer pros
trate aud annoy, and the patient gets well, pro-
vided he avoids taking cold.
Now there lre many cOnsumptlvCS who have
not the means 70 go TO Florida. The question
may be asked, Is there no hope for such !! Ger.
tninlY there Ii. My advice to such is, and ever
has been. to stay in a warm room during the win.
ter with temperature OF about seventy degrees,
which should be kept regularly at that point, by
means Of a thermometer. Let such patient
take his exercise within tho limits OF tho room by
walking up and down as much as his strength

lie as easily cured as any other disease II 1t Is
taken In time, and the proper kind Of treatment
Is pursued. The fact stands undisputcd on re-.
