CONSUMPTION.
IT'S CURE AND IT'S PREVENTIVE
BY DIR. j. ii. SCHENCK, NJ. ID.

s9c THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON.
SUMPTlON.--Thc primary cause Of Consump-
tion IL deranrpment Of tho digestive organs. This
arrangement produces deficient nutrition and as.
simiiation. by assimilation. Imean that process
by which the nutriment OF the food IL converted
into blood and thence into the solids Of the body
Persons with digestion thus impaired, having the
slightest prcdisposition to pulmonary disease, or
II they take cold, will be very liable to have Con-
sumption Of the Lungs in some Of its forms and
l hold that 1t will be impossible to cure any case
Of Consumption without first restoring o good
digestion and healthy assimilation. The very fret
thing to be done Is to cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all diseased mucus and slime which
clogging these organs 30 that they cannot per.
form their functions, and then rouse up and re-
store the liver to n healthy action. For this pur.
pose, the surest and best remedy 10 Schenck's
Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the stomach
and bowels Of all the dead and morbid slime that
iscausing disease and decay in the whole system.
They will clear out the liver Of all diseased bile
that has accumulated there, and arouse 1t up to
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile Is secretcd.
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 or.
gan is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow
els, the lacteas are weak, and requiring strength
and support. 1t is in a condition like this that
Schcnck's seaweed Tonic proves to be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t is alkaline,
and its use will neutraze all excess Of acid max.
ing the stomach sweet and fresh; II will give
permanent tone to this important organ, and ere.
ate good, hearty appetite, and prepare tho sys-
TEN for the first process of good digestion, ana
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood. AZ
ter this preparatory treatment, what remains to
cure most cases Of Consumption Is the free and
perscvering use Of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup hourishes the system, puri-
fes the blood, and is readily absorbed into tho
circulation and thence distributed TO the diseased
lungs. There it ripens all morbid matters, wheth-
In the form of assesses or tubercles, and then
ASSETS Nature to cxpc all the diseased matter In
the form Of free expectoraton, when once 1t RI.
pens 1t is then, by tho great healing and purify.
ing properties Of schenck's Pulmonic Syrup,
that all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound,
and my patient Is cured.
The essential thing to be done in curing Con-
sumption Il TO get up good appetite and good
digestion, 80 that the body viii grow in flesh and
ity or abscess there, the cavity cannst heal the
matter cannot rpen, so long as the system is be-
der Of things, good appetite, good nutrition,
the body TO grow in flesh and get fat; then Ma.
ture is helped; the cavities will heal, tho matter
will ripen and be thrown off in large quantities.
and the person regain health aud strength. This
Is the true aud only plan TO cure Consumption,
and II person Is very bad, u the lungs are not
entirely destroyed, or even II one lung is entirely
gone II there IL enough vitality left in the other
to heal up, there Is hope.
have seen many persons cured, with only one
sound lung, live and enjoy life 10 good old age.
This is what Schenck's Medicines will do TO euro
Consumption. They will clean ont the stomach,
sweeien and strengthen II, get up good diges-
tion, and give Nature the assistance she needs to
clear the system Of all the disease that is In tho
lungs, whatever the form may be.
IL is important that, while using sehenek's
cold keep indoors In cool and damp weather;
avoid night-air, and take outdoor exercise only
In a genial and warm sunshine.
wish II distinctly understood that when re-
commend patient TO be careful In regard to tax.
Ing cold while using my medicines, do 70 fora
covered from the effects OF bad cold 10 far more
liable TO a relapse than one whe has been entirely
cured, and It Is precisely the same in regard to
fectly healed, just SO long 10 there Imminent dan
ger Of full return OF the disease. Hence II IL
that 90 strenuonsly caution pulmonary patients
that is not genial aud pleasant. Confirmed Con.
sumptiyes' lungs are a mass Of eores, which the
least change oi atmosphere viii inname;, Ths
consists In my ability to subdue Inflammation in.
stead OF provoking It, as many OF the faculty do.
An innamed lung cannot with safety TO the pa
tient be exposed to the biting blasts Of winter OF
the chilling winds Of spring OF, autumn. It
should be refly shielded from all irritating In
huences. The utmost caution should be observed
In thls particular, az without IL cure under al
most any circ nm stances Is an imposribillty.
The person should be kept on wholesome aud
nutritious diet, and oil the medicines continued
until tie body has. restored 10 II the natural
quantity Of hesh and strength.
I was myself cured by this treatment OF the
worst kind OF Consumption, and have lived 10
get fat and hearty these many year,, with one
lung mostly gone. have cnred thousands sInce
and very many have been cured by this treatment
whom have never seen.
