CONSUMPTION, ITS CURE & ITS PREyEN-
TIVE, BY DIR. J. II. SCHENCK. N. D.

whose death there was no other reason than the
neglect of known and indisputaby proven
means of cure. Those near and dear to family
and friends are sleeping the dresmless
slumber into which, had they calmly adop-
ted Dr. JOSEPH SCHENCKs simple treatment,
and awaited themselves of his wonderful efica-
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
DIR Schenek has in his own case proved that
whatever sufficient vitality remains, that vitality
by his medicines and his directions for their
use, is quickened into healthful vigOr.
In this statement there is nothing presumpt-
uous TO the faith of the invalid is made no
representation that is not thousand times sub
Stimulated by living and visable works. The
theory of the cuge by DIR. Schenck's medicines
is as simple as it is unfailing. Its philosophy
requires no argument. Ii is selfassurng, self
convincing.
The Sea-weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are
the first two weapons with which the citadel of
the maady is assaulted. TwothiIds of the cases
of Consumption originate in dyspepsia and
functionally disordered liver. With this CON
dition the bronchial tubes "sympathize" withthe
stomach. They respond to the morbiic action
of the liver Here then comes the eliminating
result, and the setting in, with all its Distress
ing syptoms, OF
CONSUMPTION,
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one of
Natures noblest gifts-the Podophilum Pelta-
tum. They possess all the blood searching,
alternative properties OF calomel, but unlike cal
omel, they leave

The work of cure is now beginning. The
vitiated and mucous deposits III the bowels and
in the alimentary canal are elected. The liver,
like a clock is wound up. 1t arouses from its
torpidity. The stomach acts responsibility, and

The Seal Weed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills. permeates and assimilates with the food
Qualification is now progressing without its
previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless
and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no
more fiatulence, no exacerbation OF the stomach.
An appetite sets in,
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever
yet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup comes in to
perform its functions and to hasten and COM
plete the cure. II enters at once upon its work.
Nature cannot be cheated. 1t collects and ripens
the impaired and diseased portions ofthe lungs.
In the form of gatherings, it prepares them for
expectoration, and 10 in a very short time the
malady is vanquished the rotten throne that it
occupied is renovated and made new and, the
patient in all the dignity of regained vgor steps
forth to enjoy the manhood or the womanhood
that was
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is. the patients must stay in
a warm room until they get well; it is almost
impossible to prevent taking cold when the lungs
are diseased, but it must be prevented or cure

especially in this section of the country in the
fall and winter season, are all wrong. Ply

patients, if their lungs are badly diseased, and
yet, because they arein the house they must
not sit down quiet; they must walk about the
room as much and as fast as the strength will
bear, TO get up agoOd circulation ofblood. The
patients must keep in good spirits-be deter
mined to get vol. This has a great deal to do
with the appetite, and is the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases. and moral certain
ty in all others, is sinful, DIR. Schencks per-
sonal statement 10 the Faculty ofhis own cure
was in these modest words: MANY yearsago |
| was in the last stage of consumption; confined |
to my bed. and at one time my physicians |
thought tha. could not live week; then like |
drowning man catching at straws l heard OF
and obtained the preparations which Inow of !
fer to the public, and they made perfect cure |
Of me- 1t seemed to me that / could feel them |
penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened |
the matter in my lungs and | would spit up
more than pint of yellow offensive matteI /
every morning for long time:
As soon as that began to subside, my cough, |
fever, pain and night sweats all began to leave |
me- and my appetite became so great thatit. was |
with difficulty that | could keep from eating |!
too much. / soon gained my strength and have |
grown in flesh ever since
II was weighed shortly after my recovery
added the Doctor, 'then looking like mere
skeleton my weight was only ninety -seven
pounds; my present weight is two hundred and
twenty five pounds, and for years have enjoy
ed uninterrupted health"
Dr. Schenck has discontinued his profession
al visits to New York and Boston. He or his
Son, DIR. j, H. Schenck, Jr., still continue to
see patients at their Office. No 10 North Sixth
street. Philadelphia, every Saturday from 8 A.
NJ. to P. NJ. Those who wish thorough ex-
animation with the Respirometer will be

exact condition of the lungs, and patients readi-
~ learn whether they are cureable or not.
The directions for taking the medicines are
adapted to the intelligence even of child Fol-
low these directions, and kind Nature will do
the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man
drake Pills are TO be taken in increased doses;
the three medicines need no Accomplishments
than the ample Instructions that accompany
them First create appetite. Of returning
health hunger is the most welcome symptom
When it co,ncE, as it will come let the de-
spairing at nc, be of good cheer. Good blood
at once follows the cough loosens, the night
sweat is abated, in a short time both of these
morbid symptoms are gone forever.
Dr. Schenck's medicines are constantly kept
in tens of thousands Of families As laxative
or purgatiye, the Mandrake Pills are stan
dard preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup as
a eurer of coughs and colds, may be regarded
as "a prOphylacterie against consumption in any
OF its forms.
