THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON-
SUMPTION.

0O MF L1ON.
The primary cause ofconsump is derange
ment ofthe digestive organs, This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation
BY assimilation mean that process by which
the nutriment ofthe Il cd is converted into blood
and thence into the solids of the body. Persons
with digestion thus impaired, having the slight
est pre.dispostion to pulmonary disease or if
they take cold, will be very liable to have Con-
sumption of the Lungs in some gifts forms; and
hold that it will be impossible to cure any case
of Consumption without first restoring a good
digestion and healthy assimilation. The very
first thing to be done is to cleanse the stomach
and bowels from all diseased mucus and slime,
which is clOgging these organs so 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
Sehenclx's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean
the stomach and bowels ofall the dead and NOR
bid slime that is causing disease and decay IL
the whole system. They will clear out the liver
of all diseased bile that has accumulated there,
and rouse it up to a new and healthy action,
by which natural and healthy bile is secreed.
The stomach, bowels and liver are thus clean
sed by the use of Schenci's Mandrake Pills but
there remains in the stomach an excess OF acid
the organ is torpid and the appetite poor. In
the bowels the lacteals are weak, and requiring
strength aud support. Its in condition like
this that SelIenck Seaweed Tonic proves TO be
the most valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t
is alkaline, and its use will neutralize all excess
OF acid making the stomach sweet and fresh il
will give permanent TONE to this Important Or
gan, and create hearty appetite and prepare
the system for the first process of good dges
ton and ultimately make good, healthy. living
blood. after this preparatory treatment, what
relnaius to cure most eases of Consumption is
the free and parsevefipg use Of Schenck's Pull |
monte Syrup The Pulmoaie Syrup nourishes |
the system, puriiies the bi0od, aud is readily |
absorbed into the circulation and thence dis |
tributed to the diseased lungs. There it ripens |
all morbid matters, whether in the form of alb |
scesses or tubcrcles, and then assists Nature to |
expel all the diseased matter, i'll the form oftree |
expectoration, when once it ripens. 1t is then |
by the great healing and purifying properties
OF Schenck' Pulmonic Syrup, that all ulcers
and cavities are healed up sound, and my pa
tent is cured.
The essential thing to be done in curing con-
sumption sto get up good appetite and good
digestion so that the body will grow in flesh |
a
"a cavity or abscess there-the cavity cannot
heal, the matter cannot ripen so long as the
system is below par. What is necessary TO cure |
is new order Of things good appetite,
good nutrition, the body to grow in flesh and |
get fat then Nature is helped the cavities will |
heal, the matter will ripen and be thrown off in |
large quantities, and the person regain health |
and strength This is the true and only plan to |
cure consumption, and if person is very bad, |
if the lungs are not entirely destroyed, or even
if one lung is entirely gone, if there is enough |
vitality left in the other to heal up there is
hope.
l have seen many persons cured with only one
sound lung live and enjoy life to a good old
age. This is what Schenck's Medicines will
do to cure Consumption. They will clean out
the stomach, sweeten and strengthen it, get up
a good digestion ald give Nature the assistance
she needs to clear the system Of all the disease
that is in the lungs, whatever the form may be.
1t is important that while using Schencks
Medicines, care must be exercised not to take
colo keep in doors in cold and damp weather;
avoid night air, and take outdoor exercise only
in genial and WaTme sunshine. r.
wish il distinctly understood that when |
recommend a patient to be careful in regard 10
taking cold while using my Medicines, do so
for a special reason, A man who has but partly
more liable to a relapse than one who has been
entirely cured and it is precisely the same in
regard to Consumption. So long as the lungs
are not perfectly healed, just so long is there
imminent danger Of full return Of the disease.
Hence it is that / so strenuously caution pulmo-
nary patients against exposing themselves TO an
that is not genial and pleasant. Con
firmed Consumptives' lungs are Il mass OF sores
which the least change of atmosphere will in
flame. The grand secret of my success with my
Medicines consists in my ability to subdue intia-
nation instead of provoking If, as many Of the
faculty do An inhamed lung cannot, with safe
ty to the patient, be exposed to the biting blasts
Of Winter or the chilling winds of Spring
or Autumn. 1t should be carefully shielded
from all irritating influences. The utmost eau
lion should be observed in this particular, as
without it a cure under almost any circumslan-
ces is an impossibility.
The person should be kept on a wholesome
and nutritious Diet and all the Medicines con
tinued till the body has restored toit the natural
quantity of flesh and strength. l was myself
cured by this treatment of tie wOrstkind Of con-
and have lived to get fat and hearty !
these many years, with one lung mostly gone. |
l have cured thousands since, and very many |
have been cured by this treatment whom l bave
never seem
About the first of October l expect TO take
possession of my new building, at the n Z. Cor
ner of Sixth and Arch Streets, where l shall be
pleased give advice TO all who may require
it,
Full directions accompany all my Remedies,
80 that person in any part of the world can be
readily cured bya strict observance of the same.
