can be safely recommended to consumptives
in winter. My reasons for saS ing so arc that
patients arc less liable to take cold there than
where there is n less even temperature, and it
is not necessary to say that where consump-
tive person exposes himself to frequent colds,
lie is certain to dio shortly. TIL, refore, my
advice is, so we'll down into the State. tut OF

blcd me to understand tho disease fully and
hence my caution in regard TO taking cold. A
person may take vast quantities IF "Schencl's

drake Pills." and yet die if he does not avoid
taking cold.
In Florida. nearly everybody is using
Schcnck's Mandrake Pills, TOR the c innate is
moro likely TO produce bilious habits than
more Mort hcrn latitudes. 1t is n well est.,b-
lished fact that natives of Florida rarely die
of cons umption, especially those Of the South
ern part. On tho other hand. i'll sew Eng
land, 0ne-third, at least. OF the population
die of this terrible disease. In tho Middle
States it docs not prevail so largely. still
there arc many thousands Of cases there.
What vast per centage of life would be saved
if consumptivcs were as easily alarmed in re-
gard to taking fresh cold as they arc about

not. They take what they term little cold,

affected even slightly is. to lay in stock OF
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup, Schcnck's Scaweed
Tonic and Schenck's Mandrake Pills and go
to Florida: recommend thcse particular
medicines because am thoroughly acquaint-
ed with their action. ] know that whcl they
are used in strict accordance with my direc-
tions, they will do the work that is required.
This accomplished, nature will do the rest.
The physician who prescribcs for cold. cough
or night-sweats, and then advises the patient
TO walk or ride ont evcry day, will be sure to
have torpsc on his hands before long:
My plan is to give my three medicines, in
accordance with tho printed directions, cx-
cept in some cases where freer use OF the
Mandrake Pills is necessary. My object is to
appetite. 1t is always q good sign when a
patient begins to grow hungry. have hopes
OF such. With relish for food and the
qualification OF that relish comes good blood,
lowed by healing OF the lungs. Then the
cough looscns aud abatcs, the creeping chills

cd he avoids taking cold.
Now tnerc arc many conaumpivcs who have
not the means to go to Florida. The qu' atinn
may bo asked, is there no hope Tor sucl.!
Certainly there is. My advice TO such is. and
ever has been, to stay il q warm room during
| tho winter, with temperature of In"nt
seventy degrees, which should be Kept
regularly at that point, ny means oI L thcr-

ing up and down as much as his strength will
permit, in order to keep up healthy circnn-
tion OF tho bIuod. I have cured thousands
by this system, and can do so again. Con-
sumption ia as easily curoh as any other
disense, if taken III time, and the proper kind
OF treatment is pursued. The fact stands
nndispnted on record that Schenck's rulmo-
mic Syrup, Mandrake ills and Scnwccd onic
