and syailed themselves of his wonderful, eaaca-
cious medicines they would not have fallen.
Dr. Senenck has In MS own case proved that
wherever SUFFICIENT vitality remains, that vitality
by his medicines and his directions for their use
is quickened into heahhful vigor.
In this statement there is nothing presumptu-
Gus. To the faith Of the invalid Is made no rep
resentation that Is not thousand times substan.
tisted by living and visible work. The theory Of
the cure by DR.. Schencks medicines ia as simple
as II is unfaiing. Its philosophy requires no ar
The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
nrst two weapons with which the citadel of the
mAady Is assailed. Two thirds OF the cases of
t consumption orieinate in dyspepsia and func-
bronchial tubes sym athize" with the stomach.
They respond to the morbihc action of the Liver,
Here then comes the eliminating result and the

CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one of Ma
lures noblest gifts-the Podophillum Peltatum.
They possess all the blood searching, Alternative
properties Of calonel, but unlike calomel, they

The work of cure is now beginning. The vita

alimentary canal are elected. The liver, Ike a

The stomach acts responsibility, and the patient

The Seaweed Tonic, in c-njunction with the

vious fortunes. Digestion becomes painless and
the cure is seen to be at hand There Is no more

Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever vet
given BY an tndulgent fsther TO suffering man.

It's functions and TO hasten Snd complete the cure,

GIVEN UP As LOST.
The second thing is the patients must stay
in a warm room until they get well; it is a.
most impossible to prevent taking cold when
the lungs are diseased, but it must be pre-
vented or cure cannot be effected. Fresh air
and riding out, especially in this section OF the
wrong. Physicians who recommend that
course lose their patients, if their lungs are
badly diseased, and yet, because they are in
the house they must not sit down auiet: thew
must walk about the room as mul.n and as fast
as the strength will bear, to get UP a good cir
culation of blood. The patients must keep in
good spirits-be determined to get well This
has great deal to do with the appetite, and is
the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence Of its
poSslDllty IN the worst cases, and moral Ger
tainty In all others, is sinful. DIR. Schenck's
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
cure was in these modest words:
Many years ago was in the last stages of
consumption; confined to my bed, and at one
time my physicians thought that l could not
live a week; then, like drowning man catch
ing at straws, 1 heard OF anu obtained the
preparations which now odeI 10 the public,
and they made perfect cure OF me. 1t seemed
to me that l could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter
in my lungs, and would spit up more than a
pint OF offensive yellow matter every morning
for a long time.
"As soon as that began to subside nv cough,
fever, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that it
was with difficulty that l could keep from eat
ing too much. / soon gained my strength and
have grown in flesh ever since
81 was weighed shortly after my recovery"
added the Doctor, then looking like a mere
skeleton; my weight was only ninety seven
pounds; my present weight is two hundred
and twenty-fy (225) pounds, and for years /
have enjoyed uninterrupted health"
DIR Schenck has discontinued his profession
al visits to New York and Boston. He or his
son, Dr. j. II. Schenck, Jr., still continue to
see patients at their Office, No. IS North Sixth
street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from A.
N. to P. n. Those who wish a thorough ex-
animation with the Respirometer will be
charged IS. The RespirOmeter declares the
exact condition of the lungs, and patients can
readily learn whether they are durable or not
The directions for taking the medicines are
adapted to the intelligence even of a child
Follow these directions, and kind Nature will
do the rest, excepting that in some cases the
Mandrake Pills are 70 be taken in increased
doses; the three medicines need no other ac-
compartments than the ample instructions
that accompany them: First, create appetite.
Of returning health hunger is the most well
come symptom. When it comes, as it will
come, let the despairing at once be of good
cheer. Good blood at once follows, the cough
loOsens, the night sweat is abatcd. In a short
time both Of these morbid symptoms are gone
forever.
DR.. Schenck's medicines are constantly kept
in tens of thousands of families As a laxative
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are standard
preparation; while the PulmOnic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as
prophylaeteric against consumption in any
OF its forms.
