so Popular.

never be eradicated from the system. As well
water to run up Hill OF It's own v%olition as
to cure consumption without q complete purif-
cation OF the blood. This is the peculiar pro-
perty of DIR. Sohenok's Pulmonic Syrup. But
it does more than this. It not only purIfes the
blood, but it allays irritation of the bronchial
tubes. 1t collects and ripSns the impure mat
tiers collected there, and enables the patient to
threw them of by painless erpectstien! This
grest syrup has another virtue. It possesses
qualities which give suGtenance, and,
consequently, strength to the invalid. Now
combine these three qualities, and you have an
answer to the inquiry
WHY is THE PULM0NIC SYRUP IN SUCH
DEMAND?
ThouEaHas nAse testified 1t with complete sat
isfactioni thousands have used It and been
cured thousands are using it and being cured.
But. DR.. schenck has other remedies. Thereare
other agencies to be employed in the cure Of
consumption, and he has provided them.
If it be asked why Sohenck's Mandrake Pills
are so popular, the question is answered as
readily as in the case of the Pulmonio Syrup.
soRENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS
have SlnOst universal application to human
diseases, and, though they have been mainly re-
commended in pulmonary cases, their virtues in
other mslsdies have been 80 completely aud sat
isfaetOrily demonstrated that the people Will
have them. Now, why are they so essential to
the cure of consumption Because the in gredi-
ents Of which they are composed act directly
upon the liver, causin that important organ to
throw off its torpidity, and make heaithful Sc
cretions. The Mandrake Pills
CONTAIN NO CALOMEL
to spread its poison through the patients sys-
TEN. Their operation is simple and efectual.
BY their use healthy bile is secured. As = CON
sequence. impaired digestion is restored, food is
properly assimilated, good, healthy blood is the
result, and, of course, strength is renewed, and
the great process of healing thoroughly inau-
gurated. Whole pages of newspapers could be
filed with testimonials from those who have
used the Mandrake Pills and been benefited by
them. A thousand boxes are sold to-day where
ten were sold four years ago, and the "ory is still
they come" The facilities for manufacturing
then have become teo limited, and as q conse-
qusnce, DR.. Sehenok has been compelled to erect
a greatly enlarged and very magnificent build
ing, to enable him to put up the requisite ma
ehinory to supply the constantly increasing de-
msnd for his great medicine.
But GOOD HEALTHY BLOOD
is nOt the only requisite. The patient needs
strength. The entire system must be kept in
order. The weakened, sman cipstes pA.isntnust
have flesh put upon and strength into his limbs.
To accomplish these great objects is the speeia
province Of
sCHENCE'S sEAWEED TONIC.
The aeidity Of the stomach, so distressing TO
patients, and SO detrimental to health, is efeetu-
ally removed. The alkaline constituents OF tBs
SeGwsed Tonic accom- piish this. In addition to
this it imparts tone and vigor to the system, and
enables the patient to take the necessary indoor
exercise without exhaustion. This is vitality i'm
pOrtsnt, though too frequently overlooked by
medical men. They Rdgise exercise w!thous
having the patient prepared fox il. They tell
MIN TO so out into the cool, rssping air when ne
should be exercising moderately where the tenn
p~etAture is suited TO his diseased condition, and
this too without giving hin those remedies which
are calculated to impArt strength while they
assist in healing up the liberated lungs and
bronchial tubes.
In this brieE recital, the public have an an
sxer to the question HAy 0re Or. Schemes 8
medicines so POPULAR The problem Is solved
SO clearly that none but those who are ~w!iiully
blind can tail to understand 1t. The wonderful
cures that have been effected by Dr. Schsnck's
remedies, are the living, bre&ting Snd moving

they furnish the evidence that STANDS uno0u-
troyerted and unooH tTovsrtlbIe. To them tke
pzbLc is referred, With the most Implicit conf
denee, and TO them Dr.. Schenck new triumph
autiy appeals as irrefutAbls proof OF the cor
~rectuess Of his oft-repested assertion that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
Doctor Sehenck's personol statement to the
Faculty of his own cure was ia these words:
MANY years ago I Was in the last stages Of
consumption, confined to my bed. and at one
time my physician thought l could Rot live q
week then like = drowning man catching at .
straw, l heard Of and obtained the preparations
which I now offer TO the public, and they made 8
perfect cure Of me, 1t seemed to me that l
could feel them penetrate Lay whole system
Tnsy soon rIpened the matter in my iungs, and
l would spit up more than 3 pint Of offensive
yellow matter every morning for q long time.
AS soOn as that began to subside. my oongh,
fever, pain and night sweats all began 10 leave
me, and my appetite became 30 great mat ia was
with difficulty thai / could keep fFom eating too
much. / soon gained my stTsngJh, and have
grown to flesh ever slnce.
81 was weighed shortly after my recovery
added the ooctor, then looking like a mere
sk %eieton my weight was but nipety-seven lbs.
my present weight is two hundred and twenty
five (22j) pounds, and for years / have enjoyed
uninterrupted health"
