Q w THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON
sUMPTIoN-The primary cause of Consump-
tion is arrangement of the digestive organs. This
arrangement produces deficient nutrition and as
similation. By assimilation, Imean that process
by which the nutriment of the food is converted
into blood, and thence into the solids of the body.
Persons with DIGESTION thus impaired, having the
slightest predisposition to pulmonary disease, or
if they take cold viii be very liable to have Con-
sumption of the Lungs in some of its 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
are cogging these organs so that they cannot per-
form their functions, and then rouse up and re-
store the liver to healthy action. For this pur-
pose, the surest and best remedy is Schenck's
Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the stomach
and bowels of all the dead and morbid slime that
is causing disease and decay in the whole system.
They will clear out the liver of all diseased bile
that has accumulated there, and arouse it up to a
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile is secreted. e
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 Or
gan is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow
els, the lacteals weak, and requiring strength
and support. 1t is in q condition like this that
Schenek's Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered 1t is alkaline,
and its use will neutralize all excess Of acid max
ing the stomach sweet and fresh; it will give
permanent tone to this important organ, and Gre
ate good, hearty appetite, and prepare the sys-
TEN for the first process of good digestion, and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood. AT
ter this preparatory treatment, what remains to
cure most cases Of Consumption is the free and
persevering use of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system, puri-
fes the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
circulation and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There itripens all morbid matters, wheth-
er in the form of assesses or tubercles and then
assists Nature to expel al the diseased matter in
the form of free expectoration, when once it ri
pens. It is then by the great healing and purify
ing properties of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup.
that all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound,
and my patient is cured. q
The essential thing to be done in curing Con-
sumption is to get up good appetite and good
digestion, 90 that the body will grow in flesh and
get strong. Ha person has diseased lungs, cav
ity or abscess there, the cavity cannot heal, the
matter cannot ripen, so long as the system is be-
der of things, good appetite, good nutrition,
the body to grow in flesh and get fat; then Ma
ture 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 il there is enough vitality left in the other
to heal up, there is hope.
have seen many persons cured, with only one
sound lung, i've and enjoy llle to 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 good diges-
tion, and give Nature the assistance she needs to
clear the system Of all the disease that is in the
lungs, whatever the form may be.
II is important that while using Schenck's
Medicines, care should be exercised not to take
cold; keep indoors in cool and damp weather.
avoid night-air, and take outdoor exercise only
in genial and warm sunshine.
wish it distinctly understood that when re-
commend patient to be careful in regard to tax
ing cold while using my medicines, do so for
special reason. A man who has but partially re.
covered from the effects of bad cold is far more
liable to relapse than one who has been entirely
cured, and il is precisely the same in regard to
Consumption. So long as the lungs are not per-
fectly healed, Just so long is there Imminent dan
ger Of full return of the disease. Hence it is
that I so strenuously caution pulmonary patients
against exposing themselves to an atmosphere
that is not genial and pleasant. Confirmed Con-
sumptives' lungs are mass of Sores which the
least change Of atmosphere viii infame. The
grand secret OF my success with my medicines
consists in my ability to subdue inflammation in
stead of provoking it. as many OF the faculty do.
An intamed lung cannot with safety TO the pa

the chilling winds of spring or autumn It

The person should be kept on a wholesome and
nutritious diet, and all the medicines continued
