NY reasons for saying so are tnat patients are

less even temperature, ana 1t is not necessary
TO say that where aconsumptivo person exposes
himself to frequent colds he is certain to die
shortly. Therefore my advice is, 20 well down

In Floridn nearly every body is using 5ehenck's

produce bilious habits than more northern lati-

Ny plan is to give my three medicines, in ac-

tainly there is. My advice to such is, anu ever

Consumption is as easily cured as any other dis

OF treatment is pursued. The fact stands undis-
