OF THE DISCOVERY AND WONDERFUL KFFEcTs OF DR.
scHENCKs GREAT rUtNoEic REMEDIES.
II man were asked why he insured his life, the
question would be regarded as very simple one
and scarcely requiring an answer, for the reason
that the advantages Vf life insurance univer
sally admitted that TO doubt its utility would be to
fly IN the very face OF reason and common sense.
Now, while we md so many persons not only willing,
but anxious, to make provision for the family or
friends who 70 be left behind, how many thou
sands there are who are culpably neglected. OF their
own health, and who, in some instances, for the
sake Of saving the outlay OF few dollars, and in
others from positive Indifference, permit their lives
to be prematurely destroyed
II consumption were not disease as insidious as
It is fatal and IL it were, as is asserted by the medi
cal faculty generally, INCURABLE, there would be an
apology for consumptives wis, day after day and
year after year. refuse heed the warning given by
a hacking cough, hectic cheek, cold and cammy
night-sweats, and other distressing symptoms
which are the almos. certain forerunners OF deep
seated pulmonary disease, and which, when tho
roughly ingratted into the system, can be removed
only by the use OF special remedies and the observ-
OF precautions the very opposite OF those
ally given by physicians.
Many years ago these thoughts suggested them
selves to the mind OF Dr. JOSEPH II. SCHENcK now
OF Philadelphia, but at the time OF VIII ch we speak
a resident OF New Jersey. Hin self confirmed
consumptive, and with little or hope of recovery,
but with sufficient love of life t. prompt him to
make effort to live, he patiently houghtfully
applied himself to the scientific study OF the disease
which was silently, but nevertheless surely, bearing
him to the grave.

continued its fast hold upon him, aud he was sent

alleviate the sutIerngs OF his fellow, creatures AS
would be natural, his principal attention directed
to the subject OF Pulmonary Diseases. The most
eminent physicians In the country had assured him
that
CONSUMPTION COULD NOT CURED,
and that he, being consumptive, must die /! But
there he was, living, breathing refutaton OF the
assertions Of these learned men. He that given

preparation OF his great remedies. After years of
experiment he succeeded In perfecting his

that patients take it regularly for long period with
out becoming nauseated by IL. Hearing OF his re-
marRable cure, hundreds and thousands of patients
focked to him for advice and medicine. These were
supplied, and to-day there are many healthy men
and women living who owe their health and strength
wholly to
DIR. sCHENCKs MEDICINES.
