there Is enough vitality len IN the other 20 heal up,
there is hope.

/ This Is what Scheuk's medicines VIII 10 10 cure

and give nature The assistance she needs 10 clear
the syGtem OF all the disease that is in the lungs,

IL is important that, while using Sehenk's mc,li-
cnes, care shOnld be exercised not 10 take COLI

genial and warm sunshine.

and II Is precisely the same IN regard 10 conSump-

return Of the disease. Hence u - that 81 siren
ucusly caution pulmonary patients against expos.

medicines consists IN NV ability 10 subdue nham-
