ITS CURE AND IT'S PREVENTIVE
BY DIR. J. II. SCHENCK, NJ. ID.

- THE CAUSE AND CURE OF con.
SUMPTlON.-Thc primary cause Of Consump-
tion is arrangement Of the digestive organs. This
arrangement produces deficient nutrition and as-
similatiOI. By assimilation. n 1aa that process
by which the nutrimeut Of the food j. converted
into blood, and thence into tho solids Of the body
Persons with digestion thus impaired, having tho
slightest prcdisposition TO pulmonary disease, or
If they take cold, will be very liable 10 have Con.
sumption Of the Lungs in some Of It's forms and
hold that It will be impossible to curc any case
OF Consumption without first restoring a good
digestion and healthy assimilation. The very first
thing TO be done l. TO cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all diseased mucus anl slime which
are cloggRg these organs 80 that they cannot per.
form their functions, and then rouse up and re-
store the liver to a healthy action. For this pur.
pose, the surest and best remedy Il Schcncks
Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the stomach
and bowels Of all the dead and morbid slime that
s. causing disease and decay in the whole system.
They will clear ont the liver Of al diseased bile
that has accumulated there, and arouse 1t up to
and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile Is secrctcd.

Schcnck's Seawccd Tonic proves 10 be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t is alkaline
and its use will ncutrazc all excess Of acid, max.
ing the stomach sweet and fresh; it will give
permanent tone 20 this important organ, and cre-
ate a good, hearty appetite, and prepare the sys-
TEN for the flrst process Of good digestion, and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood. AZ
ter this preparatory treatment, what remains to
cure most cases OF Consumption IL tho free and
pcrseyering use of Schencks Pumonic Syrup.
The Pulmouic Syrup nourishcs the system, puri-
fcs the blood. and Is readily absorbed into tho
circulation. and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There il ripens all morbid matters, whcth-
or in the form of Assesses or tubcrces, and then
assists Nature 10 expcl all the diseased matter In
the form Of free expectoration, when once 1t ri.

ing properties Of schencG's Pulmonic Syrup.
that all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound
and my patient is cured.
The essential thing TO be done in curing Con-
sumption is TO get up good appetite and good
digestion, so that the body will grow in flesh and
get strong Ifa person has diseased lungs, a cav
ity or abscess there, the cavity cannot heal tho
matter cannot ripcn, 70 long as the system il be-

will ripcn and be thrown oI Ia large quantities,
and the person regain health and strength. This
is the true and only plan 10 cure Consumption,
and If person IL very bad, ir the lungs are not
entirely destroyed, or even II one lung IL entirely
gone, il there Is enough vitality lc!' in the other
to heal up. there is hope
have seen many persons cured, with only one
sound lung, live aud enjoy life TO good old age.
This is what schcuck's Medicines Will do to cure
Consumption. They will clean ont the stomach,
sweeten and strengthen il, got up good diges-
tion, and give Nature the assistance She needs to
clear the system of all the disease that is in the
lungs, whatever the form WGy be,
II Is important that, while using Schenck's
Medicines, care should lie exercised not to take
cold keep indoors in cool and damp weather;
avoid nightair, and take outdoor exercise only

liable to q relapse than one who has been entirely
cured, and 1t Is precisely the came in regard to
Consumption. so long rs the lungs are not per.

that SO strcnnously caution pulmonary patients
against exposing themselves 10 an atmosphere
that is not genial and pleasant. Confirmed Con.
