nR. sCHENCK ADVISES CONsUMp-
IL TIYES TO eo.ro FLORIDA IN WINTER.
Having for the last thirty five wears devoted
my whole time and attention to the duty of lung
diseases and consumption, feel that L under.
stand fully the course that ought to be pursued
to restore tolerably bad case o diseased LUNGS
to healthy soundness. The first and most impor.
tant step is for the patient to avoid taxing cold.
and the best all places this con tinent for tls
purpose in winter, is Florida, well down in the
State, where the temperature is regular, and not
subject to such variations as in more Northern
ATTITUDES. Palatki is point can recommend
good hotel is kept there by Peterman Last
winter saw several persons there whose lunrs
had been badly diseased, but who, under the
healing influence of the climate and nv medi-
cines, were getting we'll.
One hundred miles further down the river is \
point which would prefer to Palatka as the
temperature is more even and the air dry and
bracing. Melonyie and Enterprise are located
there | should give decided preference II
Mellonville 1t is two miles from river or lake,
and it seems almost impossible to take cold there
The tables in Florida might be better, and M.
tients complain at times but that is a good sign.
as it indicates a return of appetite, and wien
this is the case they generally increase in flesh
and then the lungs must heal.
jacksonville, Hibernia, Green Cove, ard ma
ny other places in various parts of Florido
can be safely recommended to consumhtivns in
winter My reasons for saying are that patient Is
are less liable to take cold there than here there
is less even temperature, and is not necessarw
| to say that where a consumptiye person evnoscs
himself to frequent colds he is certain to die short
~ therefore my advice is, go well down into
the State out of reach OF prevailing east winds
and fogs Jacksonville or almost any Other ~
the Localities | have named, will benefit those
who are troubled with torpid river a disorderc
ed stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat or
cough, but for those whose lungs are disea sad a
more southern point is earnestly recomm eaded. :
FOR hiteen years PRIOR to 1869, was profess
sionaHy IN New York, Boston, Baltimore and
Philadelphia every week, where | saw and exi
amlned on van average five hundred patients q

possible phase OF lung disease, has enabled me ~
understand the disease fully, and hence NV cav,

Ii he does not avoid taking cold.
IN Florida, nearly everybody is using Scbonck
Medicines, especially Sehenck's Mandrake Pile
ior the climate Is more likely to produce billions
haojts than more northern ATTITUDES 1t is wei |
established TACT that natives of Florida raralv
die OF consumption, especially those.o the sontb

ouethild, at least, of the population die Of tb1S

prevail as largely, stIl there are MANY tbopsande

| My advice to persons whose lungs are affected
even slightly Is, to lay in Il stock of Scbanck,,
| Pulmonic Syrup, Schenks Seaweed Tonic and
| Schenk's Mandrake ? Ills and go to Florida /

ture will do the rest. The physician who nar-
scribes for cold, cough or nigh sweats and then.
ad rises the patient 10 walk Or ride out every
day, will be sure to have corpse on h,s hands
before long.
| Wy plan is to give my three medicines in ac=
| coldance with the printed directions, except in.
| some cases where a freer use Of the mapdrak,
| Pills is necessary My object is to give tone to

| well, provided he avoids taking cold
Now there are many Consunptives who havs
not the means to so to Florida. The question
| may be asked, is there no hope for such? Ger
family there is. My advice to such Is, and eve, =

with temperature Of ABOUT seventy degree,
which should be kept regular at a point,

In conclusion, will say that when persons
