THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION
The primary cause of Consumption is derange-
nnent OF the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. By
assimilation mean that process by which the np
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-
80 fdspostion to pulmonary disease or II they taKe
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption Oh
3" the Lungsin some of It's forms; ard hold that II
will be impossible any case of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion ard healthy
assimilation. The very first thing 70 be done is TO
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
fnueus and sllme which is cloGgng these organs SO
that they cannot perform their functions, and then
rouse up and restore the liver to healthy action.
For this purpose the Surest and best remedy is
Schenek'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 up to
new and healthy action, by which natural ana
. healthy bile is secreted.
The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus cleansed
by the use of Schenck's Mandrake Pils; but there
remains In the stomach an excess OF acid the
organ is torpid and the appetite poor IN the DOW
els the lacteals are weak, and requiring strength
and support. It is in condition like this that
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic proves 10 be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t IS alkaline,
and its use will neutraliZe all excess Of acid, max
ing the stomach sweet and fresh; it will give per-
rnanent tone to this important organ, and create
good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process OF q good digestion, ana
ultimately make good, healthy, living o4ood.
After this preparatory treatment, what remains
70 cure most cases of Consumption is the free
and perseverng use of Schenck's Pulmonic syrup.
The Pulnonic Syrup nourishes the system, puri-
hes the blood and is readily absorbed into the
circulation and thence distributed 10 the diseased
lungs. There it rpens all morbid matters, whether
