THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION.
1.-The primary cause of Consumption is derange-
ment OF the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. BY
assimilation mean that process by which the nu-
triment Of the food Is converted into blood, and
thence into the solids of the body Persons with
digestion thus impaired, having the slightest pre-
disposition to pulmonary disease, or If they take
cold, viii be very liable to have Consumption of
the Lungs In some Of its forms; and hold that it
viii be impossible to cure any case of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very first thing to be done is to
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucous and slime, which is clogging these organs
That they cannot perform their functions, and then
rouse up and restore the liver to healthy action.
For this purpose the surest and best remedy is
Schenck's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels Of sill the dead and morbid
slime that Is causing disease and decay in the whole
system. They will clear out the liver ofa diseased
bile that has accumulated there, and rouse it up to
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile Is secreted
The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus cleansed
by the use Of Schenck's Mandrake Pills; but there
remains In the stomach an excess of acid, the
organ Is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow

Schencks eeaweod Tonic proves to be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered. It Is alkaline
and Its use will neutralize all excess Of acid max

After this preparatory treatment, what remains
TO cure most cases OF Consumption is the free
and persevering use Of Schenck's Pulnonc Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system, purf-
nes the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
circulation, and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There It ripens all morbid matters whether
