THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON.


The primary cause OF Consumption Is derange.
mont OF tho digestive organs. This derOngG
mGnt produces deficient nutrition and asslnila'
tion, by assimilation ! mean that process by
which the nutrimont Of the food Ia converted into
blood, and thence into tho solids OF the body.
Persons with digeAtion thus impaired, having
tho slightest prGdlspOsltl0n to pulmonary die
ease, or II they take cold, will be very liable IA
have Consumption OF the Lungs In some oil
Its forms; and / hold that II will DO impossible
to cure any case Of Consumption without Hrat
restoring good digestion and healthy aSSlmla'
ton. The very arst thing 10. DO done is to
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, which is clogeing these organs
so that they cannot perform their functions, and
then rouse up and restore the liver 10 healthy
action. For this purpose the surcst and bcel
remedy Is Schenck's Mandrake Pills. These
Pills clean the stomach and bowels Of all the
dead aud morbid slime that Ia causing dis
ease and decay In the whole system. They
will clear out the liver Of all diseased bile thai
has accumulated there, and rouse II up 10 a new
and healthy action, by which natural and healthy
bile ls BecTeted.
Tho stomach, bowels and \ yer are thus cleans
ed by the use Of SChenck's Mandrake Pills but
there remains In the stomach an oXcePs OF acid
the organ is torpid and the appetite poor. In
the bowels the lactOals arc weak, and requiring
strength and support. It is In a condition like
this that BChenCks seaweGd Tonic proves

covered. It Is alkaline, and Its use Will neutral
lee all excess Of acid, making tho stomach sweet
and fresh; II will give permanent tone to this I'm
p0rtant organ, and create good, hearty appetite
and prepare the system for the ilrst process OF q
good digestion, and ultimately make good
healthy, living blood. After this preparatory
treatment. what remains TO cure most cases Of
Consumption Is the free and perseyerlng use oil
Schonck's Pulmonic Syrup. The Pulmonlc syrup
nourlshes the system, pnriaes the blood, and IL
readily absorbed into tho circulation, and thence
distributed to the diseased lungs. There II
rlpcns all morbid matters, whether In the form
Of abc'eses or tubercles, and then aseists Nature
To expel all the diseased matter, In tho form OIL
free 0XpeCtOraAlOn, when once II rlpens II IA
then, BY the great healing and purifying proper
ties Of Schenck's PulmOnic Syrup, that all ulcers
and cavities are healed up sound, aud my patient
Is cured.
Tho essential thing to BIO done In curing Con.
sumption ID to get up good appetite and good
sound digestion, 30 that the body will grow In
flesh and get strong. II q person has diseased
lunRs.-aSCaVlty or Abcess thcre,-the cavity can
not heal, the matter cannot ripen, so long as the
10 q new order Of thlngs,-a good. appetite o
good nutrition, the body to grow IN llesh and yet
fat then Nature lie helped, tho cavities will heal
the matter will be thrown of In large quantities
and the person regain health and strength. This
10 the true and only plan TO cure Consumption
entirely destroyed, or even one lung ls entirely
gone, II there ls enough vitality left In tho other
10 heal up, there Is hope.
l have seen many persons cured with only one
sound lung, live and enjoy life to good old ago
Consumption. They will clean out the stomach
sweeten and strengthen IT, get up good dlgei
ton, and give nature the assistance she needs Ia
clear the system Of all the disease that Is In the
lungs, whatever the form may be.
It is important that while uplng SChcnck's
Medicines. care should be exercised not to take
cold; keep indoors in cold and damp weather;
avoid night air, and take door exercise only
In q genial and warm sunshine.
l with II distinctly understood that when re.
commend patient TO be careful In regard Ia
taking cold, while using my Medicines, do 80
for special reason. A man who has bat par.
TALLY recovered from the effects Of bad cold Ia
far more liable to o relapse than one who has
been entirely cured and 1t IL precisely tho same
In regard TO Consumption. So long az the lungs
are not perfectly healed Just no long Is there i'm.
minent danger OF full return Of the disease
Hence II is that | go etrenuously caution pull.
mon,ry patients against exposing themselves to
an atmosphere that 10 not genial and pleasant,
Confirmed ConBumptIvea lungs are mass oil
sores, which the least change OF atmosphere will
enhame. The grand secret OF my success with
my medicines consists In my ability to subdue
Inflammation instead Of provoking II, as many oil
the faculty do. An innained lung cannot, with
safety to the patient, be exposed 10 tho biting
blasts OF Winter or the chilling winds OF Spring
or Autumn. II should DO carefully shielded
from all irritating influences. The utmost eau.
ton should be observed In this particular, az
without It cure under almost any circumstances

The person should be kept on wholesome
and nutritious diet, and oil The medicines con.

was myself cured by this treatment Of the
worst kind Of consumption. and have lived to
get fat and hearty these many years, with one
lung mostly gone. have cured thousands
since, and very many have been cured by this
treatment whom have never seen.
About the first Of October l expect 10 take
possession Of my new building, at the northeast
corner Of Sixth and Arch streets where | shall
be pleased to give advice to all who may re.

Full directions accompany all my Remedies 30
that person In any part OF the world can be
readily cured by strict observance Of the same.
