TO GO TO

understand fully The course that ought t. be pur-
sued to restore 4 tolerably bad case OF diseased
lungs to he9ilhy soundness. The fr't AID
most important step is &c; the pa;len. 10 AVOID
taking cold, and the tes. Of dll places on this
continent for this purpose in winter, IS fIonta,
well down n the Slate, where the temperature
is regular, and not subject 10 such variations as
in m re Northern lau u!cs. P1ll'ka Is point
can recomeud. a good hotel Is Kept there by
Pelerman. Last winter >aw several persons
there whose lungs had teon badly diseased, but
who under The healing influence Of the climate
and my medicines, were getting well.
One hundred miles further down the rver is

temperature Is more even and the air dry and
bracing. MelIonvic and Enterprise are Ioca-
ted there. ! should give decided preference
TO Meonvlle. II is two miles from rveF or
lake, and il seems almost impossible TO take
cold there. The tables in Florida MIGHT be bet
ter, and patients complain al times but that Is
good sign, as 1t indicates return Of apPeute' and
when this is the case the eeucrao increase IN

jacksonville, Hlbernia, Green Cove, and many
other places 10 various parts of Florida, can be
safely recommended TO con,umPuves IN winter
Ny reasons for saying so are tha: patients
arc less liable 10 take cold there than
where there is a less even lomPera ure
and it is rot necessary TO say that con-
sumptive person exposes himself TO frequent
colds ho is certain TO die shortly. Therefore
my advice is, 90 we! down into the State out
Of the reach o. prevailing east winds and logs.
jacksonville, and almost any other OF the local
tiles thai have named, will benefit those who
are taoubied with n torpid liver, disordered
stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat or cough,
but for those whose lungs are diseased more

Philadelphia every we X, where saw and e1-

ry possible phase of lung disease, has enabled
me to understand the disease iul y, and hence
my caution in regard 10 taking COLI. person
msy take vast quantities "SchencE Pulmon-
IC syrup Scaw,ed Tonic and Mandrake PIs,'
and yet die # he does not avoid taking cold.
In Florida, nearly everybody IS uslnS
Schenck's Mandrake Fills, for the climate IS
more likely 10 produce bilious habits than more
northern latitude. 1t is well established !act
that natives Of Florida rarely die OF consumption
especially those OF the southern part On the
other hand in New England, one third, at least, ,
Of the population die OF This terrible disease. In
the Middle States il does not prevail so largely,
still there are many thousands OF cases there
" hat a vast percentage OF life would be saved II
consumptlves were easily alarmed IN regard
20 taking fresh cold as they are about scarlet
fever, small pOx, &c. But they are not. They
take what they term lulc cold, which they ere
credulous enough 10 believe will wear of II
few days. They pcy no attention 10 It, and
| hence 1t loys the foundation Tor another and
smother still until tie Lungs are ttcascd Beyond
all hope for cure.

My plan is 10 give my three medicines, in nc.
