THE ,-4CsP AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION
The primary cause OF Consumption Is derange-
u1ent OF the digestive organs This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilaIICn By
assimilation mean that process by which the nu-
triment 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 II they take
cold will be very liable TO have Consumption of
the Lungs In some OF its forms and hold that 1t
will be impossible to cure any case of Consunpti
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very nrst thing 70 be done Is 70
cleanse The stomach and bowels rom all diseased
mucous and slime, which Is cogging these organs so
that they perform their functions and then
rouse up and restore the liver to a healthy action.
For this purpose the surest and best remedy Is
SchencIzs 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 the liver Of all diseased
bile that has accumulated there, and rouse II up to
a new and healthy action. BY which natural and
healthy bile Is secreted.
The stomach, bowels and liver are thus cleansed
by the use of Schenck's 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
and support tt IL in condition like this that
valuable remedy ever discovered. It is alkaline
and its will neulraIize all excess of acid max
ing the stomach sweet and fresh; it will give per-
msnent tone to this important organ, and create
a good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process of a good digestion, and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood.
Amer this preparatory treatment, what remains
to cure most cases of Consumption is the free
and persevering use of Schencks Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system, puri-
fes the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
circulation and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There it rpens all morbid matters. whether
in the form of Assesses or tuhercies. and then
the form Of free expectorntiDn, when il Tipens

This is what schenck's Medicines viii do to cure
consumption. They will clean ont the stomach,
and give Nature the assistance she needs to clear
the system Of all the disease that is in the lungs,
1t is important that while using Schenck's Medi-

cold, while using Medicines, do for special

ana II Is precisely the same in regard to ConSump
tion so long aS the lungs not perfectly healed,
Just so long IL there imminent danger of full re-
turn OF the disease Hence it IS that so strenu-
rlsly caution pulmonary patients against exposing
themselves to an atmosphere that is not genial and
pleasant. Confirmed ConsumptiveS' lungs are a
mass of sores, which the least change of atmos-
phere will infiame The grand secret of my
cess with my Medicines consists in my ability to
subdue Inflammation instead of provoking it,
many of the faculty do. An nfamed lung cannot,
with safety to the patient, be exposed to the biting
blasts of Winter or the chilling winds of Spring
or Autumn. 1t should be carefully shielded from
all irritating Influences. The utmost canton
should be observed in this particular, without II
cure under almost any circumstances is impos-
sibility.
The person should be kept on a wholesome and
nutritious diet, and all the Medicines continued
of flesh and strength.

kind of Consumption, and have lived get fat and

Full directions accompany all my Remedies, so
that a person in any part of the world can be
readily cured by strict observance of the same.
