CONSUMPTION.
ITS CURE AND ITS PREVENTIVE
BY DR.. j. II. SCHENCK, VI. d.

~ THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON.
sUMPTION-Thc primary cause Of Consump-
ton il arrangement Of the digestive organs. This
arrangement produces deficient nutrition and as
.imilg,ioA. By assimilation. lmcan that process
bywhicA the nutrimort Of the food l. converted
Into blood, and thence into the solids OF the body.
Persons with di csion thus Impaired, having the
slightest prcdisposi,ion TO pulmonary disease, or
II they take cold, will be very liable 10 have Con-
sumption Of the Lungs in some Of ts forms and
hold that 1t will be impossible tD cur1 aay case
Of Consumption without Grst restoring q good
digestion and healthy Assimilation. The very frst
thing to be done IL 20 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 a healthy action. For this pur.
pore, the surest AMI beet remedy Is schenck's
Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the stomach
and bowels Of al the dead and morbid slime tha.
Is causing disease and decay In the whole system.
They will clear ont the liver Of al diseased bile
that has accumulated there, and arouse Il mp to
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile is sccretcd.
The stomach, bowels and liver are thus clcansed
by the use OF schencl:'s Mandrake Pills; but there
remains In the stomach an excess Of acid, the Or
gan il torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow
ella, the lactcals are weak, and requiring strength
Schencli's Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most
valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t is alkaline,
and its use will ncutralizc all excess Of acid max
ing the stomach sweet and frcsh it will give
permanent tone TO this important organ, and cre-
ate good, hearty appetite, ani prepare the sys-
tenn for the fret process of good digestion, and
ultimately make good healthy, living blood. NJ
ter this preparatory treatment, what remains 10
cure most cases Of Consumption ia tho free and
rcrscycring use of SchcncEs pU.nouic syrup.
The Pulmonc Syrup nourshcs the system, pur-
fcs the blood. and Ia readily absorbed into tho
circulation and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs There tripcns all morbid matters, whcth-
er in the form of Assesses tubcrcles, and thea
assists Nature 10 expcl all the diseased matter In
the form of free cxpcctoration, when once 1t RI.

ing properties Of Scheuck's Pulmonic Syrup,
that all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound.
