1.-THE CAUSEAND CURE OF CONSUMPTION.
The primary cause Of Consumption is derange-
ment of the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. BY
assimilation mean that process by which the nu-
tr1ment OF the food is converted into blood and
thence into the solids of the body. Persons with
digestion thus impaired having the slightest pre-
disposition to pulmonary disease, or If they take
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption OF
the Lungs in some of its forms; and hold that it
VIII be impossible to cure any case Of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation The very first thing to be done Is to
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, which is cloggng these organs so
that they cannot perform their functions, and then
rouse up and restore the liver to q healthy action
For this purpose the surest and best remedy is
Schenck's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels OF all the dead and morbid
slime that Is causing disease and decay in the whole
system. They will clear out the liver of all diseased
bile that has accumulated there and rouse it up to
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile is secreted. .-e ~
The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus cleansed
by the use Of Schencks Mandrake Pills; but there
remains in the stomach an excess of acid, the
organ is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow
els the lacteals are weak, and requiring strength
ana support It is in a condition like this that
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t is alkaline,
and Its use will neutralize all excess of acid max
manent tone to this important organ, and create
a gooo, nearly appetite, and prepare the system
Tor the hrst process of good digestion, and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood.
After this preparatory treatment, what remains
to cure most cases of Consumption is the free
and persevering use of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system, puri-
fies the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
circulation, and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There it ripens all morbid matters, whether
In the form OF assesses or tubercleS, and then
assists Nature to expe all the diseased matter, in
The form of free expectoraton, when once IL rpens.
1t is then, by the great healing and purifying
properties of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, that all
ulcers and cavities are healed up sound, and my
patient is cured.
