The Cause and Cure Of CONSUMPTION.

The primary cause of Consumption is arrangement
OF the digestive organs. This arrangement produces
deficient nutrition and assimilation, BY assimilation
l mean that process by which the nutriment of the
food is converted into blood, and thence into the
solids of the body. Persons with digestion thus
impaired having the slightest predspositon to pull
mOnary disease, or if they take cold will be very
liable to have Consumption of the Lungs in some OF
its forms; and | hold that it will be impossible to
good digestion and healthy assimilation. The very
first thing to be done is to cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all diseased mucus and slime 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 andbest remedy is Schencks Mandrake Pills.
These Pills cleanse 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 arouse 1t up to and healthy action,
by which natural and healthy bile isssecreted.
The stomach bowels and liver are thus cleansed
by the use of schenck's Mandrake Pills; but there
remains in the stomach of acid, the organ
is torpid, and the appetite is poor. In the bowels,
the lacteas are weak, and requiring strength and
support It Is in condition like this that Schenck 5

edy ever discovered 1t is alkaline, and its will
neutralize all excess of acid, making the stomach
sweet and fresh; il will give permanent tone to this
important organ, and create good hearty appetite,
and prepare the system for the first process of good
DIGESTION and ultimately make good, healthy, living
blood. Alter this preparatory treatment, what re-
mains to cure most cases OF consumption is the free
and pcrsevering use of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup nourshes the system. purifes
the blood, and Is readily absorbed into the circula
ton and thence distributed to the deceased lungs.
There it ripens all morbid matters, whether in the
form OF Assesses or tuberces and then assists Ma
ure TO eNpe all the diseased matter in the form of
free eXpectoration, when il ripens. 1t Is then,
by the great healing and purifying properties OF
schencks Pulmonic Syrup, that all ulcers and cavi.
ties are healed up sound, and my patient is cured.
The essential thing to be done in curing Consump-
ton is to get up good appetite anda good digesti On

lhis is what Schencks medicines will do to cure
Consumption. They will clean out the stomach,
sweeten and strengthen it, get up good digestion
and give Nature the assistance She needs to clear the
system OF all the disease that is in the lungs, what
ever the form may be.
1t is important that, while using Schenck's medi.
cines, care should be exercised not to take cold
