THE CAUSE and CURE OF CON.

u SUMPTION.--The primary cause of con
sumption Is arrangement Of the digestive
organs. This arrangement produces deficient
nutrition and assimilation. BY assimilatio
mean that process by which the nutri.
ment of the food is converted into blood
and thence into the solids of the body. Persons
with digestOns thus impaired, having the slight.

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 good d.
gestiOn and healthy sssimi alton. The very fret
! thing TO be done is to cleanse the stomach ard
! bowels from all diseased mucus and slime which
Is clogging these organs 30 that they cannot per-
form their functions. and then rouse up and
restore the liver 10 a healthy action. For this
purpose, the surest and best remedy is Schenck's
Mandrake Pills These Pills cleanse he stomach
and bowels OF all the dead and morbid slime thst
Is causing disease and decay in the whole system
They will clear out the liver of all diseased bic
that has accumulated there, and arouse il up 70
a new and healthy action, by when natural and
healthy bile is secreted.
The stomach, bowels and liver are thus cleansed
by Schenck's Mandrake Pills; but there remains
in the stomach an access OF acid, the organ IL
torpid, and the appetite is poor In the bowels
the lacteals are weak, and requiring strength and
support. 1t is in a condition ike this that
Schenaks 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 il will give pei
manent tone to this important organ aud create
good, hearty, appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process of a good digestion, and
make good, healthy, living blood. After this pre-
paratory treatment, what remains TO cure most
cases of consumption is the free and persevering
use OF Sehenek 3 Pulmonlc Syrup. The Pu mon
&c Syrup nourishes the system, purifes the blood
and Is readily absorbed into the circulation and
thence distributed to the diseased lungs There
1t upens all morbid matters, whether in the form
OF Assesses or tubeTces, and then assists nature
to expel ali the diseased matter in the form of
free expectOration, when once it ripens 1t il
then, by the great healing and purifying proper
ties OF Schenck's Pulmonlc Syrup, that all ulcers
and cavities are healed up sound, and my patient
is cured.
The essential thing to be done in curing Con
sumption Is to get up good appetite and a good
digestion, so that the body will grow in flesh and
get strong. If person has diseased lungs. A cav
ity or abScess there, the cavity cannot heal, the
matter cannot rIpsn SO long the system Is be-
low par: What Is necessary to cure is Il or

will ripen and be thrown off in large quantities
and the person regain health and strength. This
Is the true and only pan TO cure Consumption

have seen many persons cured with only one
sound lung, live and enjoy hf4 to a good old age
This is what Schenck's medicines will do to cure
Consum ption. They viii clean out the stomach
sweeten and strengthen it, get up q good diges-
ton, and give Nature the assistance she needs 20
clear the system Of all diseases that is in the
lungs, whatever the former may be.
Ii is importantthat while using Scherck's mod
icines, care should be exercised not to take cold
keep indoors in cool damp weather; avoid night
ar and take outdoor exercise only in a GENIAL
and warm sunshine,
wish it distinctly understood that uhsn r.
commend patient to be careful in regard to TAX
ing cold while using my medIcir es, 1 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 1t Is precisely the same in regard 10
Consumption. 30 long as the lungs are not per-
fectIy healed, just so long is there Imminent dan
ger OF full return of the disease. Hence IL l.
that so strenuously caution pulmonary patients
against exposing themselves TO an atmosphere
that IS not genial and pleasant. Confirmed con-
sumptlves' lungs are mass of sores which the
least change of atmosphere will inhame, The
grand secret OF my success with my medicines
