It's Cure and It's Preventive.

| MANY human beiag has passed away, for.
| lYl whose death there was no other reason
than the neglect Of known and indisputably pro-.
ven means of cure. Those near and dear to fam

and availed themselves of his wonderful efica-
cious medicines they would not have fallen.
| DR.. Schenk has in his own proved that
whenever sufficient vitality remains, that vitality,
by his medicines and his directions for their uss,
is quickened into healthful vigor
| In this statement there is nothing presumptu-
GUS To the faith of the invalid is made no rep
resentation that is not thousand times substan-
tiated by living and visible works. The theory
| of the cure by DIR. Schencks medicines is as sim
pie as it is unfaling. Its philosophy requires no
argument. 1t is self assuring, self-convincing
The Sea-weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are
the first two weapons with which the citadel Of
the malady is assailed Two-thirds of the cases
of consumption originate in dyspepsia and
functonally disordered liver. With this condi-
ton the bronchial tubes ''sympathize" with the
stomach. They respond to the morbifc action of
the liver. Here then comes the eliminating re-
symptoms Of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one Of
| Natures noblest gifts-the Podophillum Peltatum.
| They possess all the understanding. Alternative
properties of calomel, but unlike calomel,

The work of cure is now beginning The Ii

the alimentary canal are cjected. The liver like

/ A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic in conjunction with the
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food.
Qualification is now progressing without its pre-
vious tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and
the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no more
l hatulence, no exacerbation of the stomach. An
appetite sets in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet
given by an indulgent Father to suffering man.
Schenck's Pulmonc Syrus comes in to perform
its functions and to hasten and complete the cures
4 1t enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot
be cheated It collects and ripens the impaired
and diseased portions of the lungs. In the form
Of gatherings it prepares them for e4pectoratlon,
! and 10 in very short time the malady is van
ouished the rotten throne it occupied, is removal
ted and made new, and the patient, in all the
entity of regained vigor steps firth to enjoy the
manhood or womanaend that was
GIVEN UP AS LOST
The second thing is, the patients must stay in
warm room until they get we'll it is almost i'm
possible to prevent taking cold when the lungs
= are diseased, but It must be prevented or q cure
cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding out
especially in this section of the country in the
fall and winter season. are all wrong. Physi-
clans who recommend that course lose their pa
tients, if their lungs badly diseased and yet,
because they are in the house they must not sit
down quiet; they must walk about the room as
much and as fast as the strength will bear to get
up a good circulation of blood. The patients
must keep in good spirits-be determined to get
well. This has great deal to do with the ap
petite and is great point to gain.
The despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral certain
ty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Schencks per
sonal statement to the Faculty of his own cure
, was in these modest words:
&c Many years ago l Was in the last stages of
consumption; confined in my bed, and at one
time my physician thought that could not live
a week; then, like drowning man catching at
straws, I heard of and obtained the preparations
, which I now offer to the public, and they made a
perfect cure of me- 1t seemed to me that could
feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon
ripened the matter in my lungs, and would spit
up more than q pint of the offensive yellow mat
ter every morning for long time
, ssAs soon as that began to suhside, my cough,
fever, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that it was
: with great difficulty that could keep from eat
ing too much. | soon gained my strength and
have grown in flesh ever since

added the Doctor, I" then looking like mere skel-
eton, my weight only ninety-ssven pounds
my present weight is two hundred and twenty
Eve (225) pounds, aud for years have enjoyed I'M

visits to New York and Boston. He or his son.

Respirometer declares the exact condition of the
lungs, and patients can readily learn whether
they are durable or not
The directions for taking the medicines ar,
adapted to the intelligence even of CHI l.. Fol-
low these directions and kind Nature will do the
rest, excepting that in some cases the Mandrake
Pills are to be taken in increased doses; the
three medicines need no other accompaniment
than the ample instructions that accompany them

DR. Schenck's medicines are constantly kept il
tens of thousands of families AS laxative o.

preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as
curer of coughs and colds. may be regarded as
prophylacteric against consumption in any of III
