,AUsE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION.

THE CAUSE AND 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 10y which tho 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, or if they take
cold, will be very liable To have Com umption OF
The Lungs in some Of its forms and hold that it
will 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 an bowels from all diseased
mucgs and slime, which is elogging these organs
that they cannot perform their functions and
then rouse up and restore the liver to a healthy
ton. Fog this purpose the sureSt and best remedy
is Schcnck'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 dis
eased bile that has accumulated there, and rouse
it up to and healthy action, By which natural
and healthy bile is secreted.
The stomach bowels, and liver are thus eesnsed
by the of Seheneks Mandrake Pills but there
remains in the stomach an excess Of acid, the or
gan is torpid and the appetite poor. IN the bowels
tho lactcals are weak, and requiring strength and
support. It'll in condition like this that SchenCk's
Seaweed Tonic proves TO be the most valuable
remedy ever discovered. Ii is alkaline. and its
use viii ncutralize all excess of acid, making the
stomach sweet and fresh it will give permanent
tone to this important organ, and create good,
hearty appetite. and prepare tie system for the
make good, healthy, living Llccd. After this pre-
paTsiOry treatment, what remains TO cure most
cases Of Consumption is the free and Pc rsevsring
use of Schenek's Pulmonic Syrup. The Pulmonie
Syrup nouTishes the system, puTifes the blood,
aud 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 tubeTclss aud then assists Nature
to expo all the diseased matter in the form Of free
expectOTati.n, when once it Tipens II Is then, by
the great healing and purifying properties Of
Sehenck Pulmonic Syrup. that all ulcers and eaVi-
ties arc 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 a good
digestion, so that the body viii grow Ia flesh and
get strong. II person has diseased lungs-a caVi-
ty abscess there,-tho cavity cannot heal, the
matter cannot Tipen, so long As the system is below
par. What is necessary to cure is new order Of
things good appetite, good nutrition, the body
to grow in flesh and get fat then Nature is helped,
the cavities will heal, the matter will TPen and be
thrown on in large quantities, and the person
ainhealth and strength. This is the {. ne and
ly plsuto cure Consumption, and il person is
very bad If tho lungs arc not entirely dcstroye ed,
or even II one lung is entirely gone, II there is
enoUgh vitality left in the other to heal up there
Is hope,
| have seen many persons cured with only ono
sound lung, live and enjoy life to good old age.
This is what Sehenck's Medicines will do to cure
Consumption. They will clean out the stomach,
sweeten and strengthen IT, get up good digestion,
and give Mature the assistance she needs to cfsar
the system OF all the disease that is in the lungs,
whatever the form may be.
u is important that while using Schf nck's Nedi-
cines care should be exercised not to take cold
keep indoors in cold and damp weather, avoid
night air, and take outdoor exoecise only in
genial and warm sunshine.
/ wish II distinctly understood That when i
recommend patient TO be careful in regard TO ia
king cold, while using my Medicines, do so for a
special reason. 4 man who has but partially re-
covered from the efFosts Of bad cold is far more
liable TO 4 relapse than who has been entirely
cured and /: is precisely the same in regard to
Consumption. SO long as the lungs arO not perfect
ly healed just so long Is there imminent danger Of
full return Of the disease. Hence II j. said that
so strenuouSiy caution pulmonary patients against
exposing themselves to atmosphere that II IS not
genial and pleasant. Confirmed Consumptiyes'
lungs a Eass Of sores, which the least change
OF aimos phere will inhaTne. The grand secret Of
my success with my Medicines consists in my abil-
lily to bduc Inflammation instead OF proTeking II,
as many Of the faculty do An inhamed lung car
not with safety to the patient, be exposed to the
biting blasts Of Winter the chilling winds Of

tion should be observed IN this particular, a. with

imPo-sibility.
