Ths 0ause and Cure of Oonsump-
tion.


The primary cause Of Consumption 10 de-
rangsnsnt Of the digestive organs. This de-
range nent produces deficient nutrition and as
similAtion. By assimilation mean that process
by which the natrimsnt Of the food il converted
ihto blood, and thence into the solids of the
body. Persons with dieestiOn thus impaired,
having tho slightest prsdispositiOn to pulmonA-
~ disease, or if they take cold, will be very la
bic to have Consumption OF the Lungs in some
ofits forms; and hold that il will be impos-
sisle to cure any case Of COnsu npslen without
first restoring good digestion and healthy as
similstion. The very hrst thing te be done 10
to cleanse the stomach and bowels from all dis
CEASED mucus ana slime which 10 cloggiag these
organs so that they cannot perform their fune-
tons, and then rouse up and restore the liver
to healthy action. BOr this purpose the sur
est and best remedy Is sehensk's Mandrake
Pills. These Pills clean the stomach snd bow
els Of all the dead and morbid slime that Is eau
sing disease and decay in the whole system.-l
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 sseresed.
The sto mach, bowels and liver are thus clean
sed by the use ef Schsnck's MAndrAkn Pills,
but there remains in the stomach an excess of
acid, the organ is torpid and the appetite poor.
In the bowels the lacterals ere weak and requir
. ing strength and support. 1t is in a condition
: like this that schencks seaweed Tonic proves
to be the M st valuable remedy ever discovered.
II is alksliue, and its use will neutra'iEs all
q cess Of acid, making the stomach sweet and
= fresh it will give permanent tone to this i'm
portant organ, and create good, hearty apPe-
tite, and prepare the system for the first process
of a good digestion, and ultimately make good,
J. healthy, living blood. After this preparatory
treatment, what remains to cure most csses of
- Consump tion is the free and Pertevsring use Of
:. schenck's Puluonic Syrup. The PulmOnic
syrup nourishss the system, Purifss the blood.
and is readily absorbed into the circulation, and
thence distributed to the diseased lungs. There
1t ripsns all morbid matters, whether in the form
OF .bcevsss or tubercles, and then asp!sts Nature
~ to sxpel all the diseased matter in the form of
h torstiOn, when once it ripens. II is then

OF sohenek's Pulmonic Syrup, that all ulcers and

The essential thing to be done in curing Con-
sumption /. to get up a good appetite and =
good digestion, so that tho body will grow in
fosh and get strong. If person has diseased
~ lungs, &C Why absesss there, the cavity can
or heel the matter cannot ripen, SO long as the
~ syssem Is below par. What necessary to cure is
d. a new order of things, good appetite, good
- nutrition. the body to grow in desh and get fat
then Nature is helped, the cavities viii heal, the
is' matter will ripeu and he thrown of in large
"a quantities, and the person regain health and

sound lung, live and enjoy life TO good old age
This ia what ssheuck's Medicines will do to cure
I'D Consumption. They will oleAn out the stomach

In genial and warm sunshine
% wish it distinctly understood that when
y recommended patient to be careful in regard to
ly taking cold while using my medicines, do SC

TALLY recovered from the effects of bad cold il
far more liable to a relapse than one who hai
Nesn entirely cured, and It is precisely the same
in in regard TO consumption. So Icing as the lungs
are not perfectly hsalsd, just so long is there
u imminent danger ofA full r.turn Of the disease
Hence 1t 10 that SO strenuously caution pull
monsry patients against exposing themselves &c

The person shoul be kept on wholesom,
