SPECIAL NOTICES.
CONSUMPTION,


The Three Remedies. "SCHEECH's Pun
BdoNIC SYRUP," for the cure of Coughs,
Colds, Bronchitis, and every form of Con-
sumption. The peculiar action of this med.
icine ripens the ulcers in the lungs, pro-
notes the discharge of the corrupt matter
by expectoration. Purides the blood. and
thus cures Consumption, when every other
remedy falls.
"Schenck's sea-Weed Tonic" for the
cure OF Dyspepsia Or Indigestion, and ali
diseases arising from debility. This tonic
invigorates the digestive organs, supplies
the place Of the gastric juice when that Is
deficient, and then enables the patient TO
digest the most nutricious food. II Is a
sovereign remedy TOR all cases of indiges-
ton.
"Schenck's Mandrake Pills." one OF the
most valuable medicines ever discovered,
being a vegetable substitute for caIomeI,
and having all the useful properties as
crtbed to that mineral, without producing
any of its injurious effects.
To these three medicines DR.. j. 81
Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his un-
rivaled success in the Treatment of Pull
monte Consumption. The Pulmonic syrup
ripens the morbid matter, discharges It,
and purifies the blood. The Mandrake
Pills act upon the liver, remove ali OBJ
struetIons therefrom, give the organ =
healthy tone, and cure Liver Complaint.
which Is one of the most prominent causes
of Consumption.
The Sea- Weed Tonic InvigoTaLes the
