THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION

THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION
The primary cause Of Consumption Is derange
mcnt OF the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. BY
-ssini!atIon mean that process by which the nu-
triment OF the food Is converted into blood, and
thence into the solids OF the body. Persons with
digestion thus impaired, having the slightest pre-
disposition to pulmonary disease or II they take
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption o:

will be impossible 10 cure any case Of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very first thing 10 be done Is TO
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucuS and slime. which Is ciogging these organs so
that they cannot perform their functions. ana then
rouse up and restore the liver TO healthy action.
For this purpose the surest and best remedy Is
Schrncks Mandrake Pills. These Pulls clean the
stomach and bowels OF all the dead and morbid
slimethat Is causing disease and decay in the whole
system. They will clear ont the liver OF all diseased
bile that has accumulated there. and rouse 1t up TO
4 new and healthy action. by which natural and
healthy bile Is secreted.
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
crgan is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow

and support. It Is In q condition ike this that

and Its use will neutralizc all excess OF acid max
Ing the stomach sweet and fresh; It will give per-
manent tone to this important organ, anc create
a good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process Of 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 persevertng use Of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup.

ies the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
