CONSUMPTION,
It's Cure and It's Preventive
BY ]. h, sCHENCK, N. D.,

MANY A HUMAN BEING has PASSED AWAY,
INl for whose death there was no other reason
Il an the neglect Of known and indisputably prov
en- means of cure Those near and dear to family
and friends are sleeping the dreamiess slumber
into which, had they calmly adopted
DIR. JOSEPH III. SOHENCK's SIM
PIE TREATMENT,
and avAiled themselves of his wonderful, eaica-
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
DR.. Sohenck has in his own csse proved that
wherever suf1cent vitality remains, that vitality,
by his medicines and his directions for their use,
is quickened into hesthfnl vigor.
In this statement there is nothing presumptu-
GUS. To the faith Of the invalid Is made no rep
resentation that is not thousand times substan.
tisted by living and visible work. The theory Of
the cure by DR.. Schencks medicines Is as simple
as IT is unfaiing Its philosophy requires no ar
gument. 1t is self-sssuring, self-convincing.
Abe Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
first two weapons with which the citadel Of the
malady is assailed Two thirds Of the cases Of
consumption originate in dyspepsia and func-
:ionalIy disordered liver. With this condition the
They respond - the morbihc acton of the liver.
Here then comes the eliminating result, and the
citing in, with all its distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one of Ma
lures noblest gifts-the Podoph llum Psltatum.
They possess all the blood searching, Alternative
properties Of calomei, but unlike calomel, they
"LEAVE NO STING BEHIND.n
The work of cure Is now beginning. The vita
ted and mucous depc sits in the bowels and In the
alimentary canal are elected. The liver, like q
clock, is wound up. 1t arouses from its torpidity.
The stomach acts responsiYely, and the patient
begins to feel that he is getting, at last,
ASUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food
Qualification is now progressing without its pre-
vious fortunes. Digestion becomes psinless, and
the cure Is seen to be at hand There il no more
hatulenee, no exacerbation Of the stomach. An
appetite sets in.
now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet
given by an indulgent father to suffering man.
6chencks Pulmonic Syrup comes in to perform
Its functions and to hasten and complete the cure.
1t enters st once upon its work. nature cannot
be cheated. 1t collect and ripens the impaired
and diseased portions of the lungs. In the form
Of gatherings, it prepares them for expectorsten,
and 10! in a very short time the malady Is van
pushed, the rotten throne that it occupied Is
ovated and made new, and the patient In all the
dignity Of regsned vigor steps forth to enjoy the
manhood or the womanhood that was.
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients mast stay
in warm room until they get well; it is a
most impossible to prevent taking cold when
the lungs are diseased, but it must be pre-
vented or cure cannot be effected. Fresh air
and riding out, especially in this section of the
country in the fall and winter season, are all
wrong. Physicians who recommend that
course lose their patients, if their lungs are
badly diseased, and yet because they are in
the house they must not sit down quiet; they
must walk about the room as much and as fast
as the strength will bear, to get up good Cir
culatiOn of blood. The patients must keep in
good spirits-be determined TO get well. This
has great deal to do with the appetite, and is
the great point to gain.
Tc despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral Ger
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. schenck's
q Ct ont m fha lEry of
cure was in these modest words:
MANY years ago was in the last stages of
consumption; confined to my bed, and at one
time my physicians thought that 1 could not
live a week then, like drowning man catch
ing at straws, heard of and obtained the
preparations which 1 now offer to the public,
and they made perfect cure of me. 1t seemed
to me that could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter
in my lungs, and would spit up more than a
pint of offensive yellow matter every morning
for long time.
"As soon as that began to subside my cough,
fever, pain and night sweats all began 10 leave
me, and my appetite became SO great that it
was with difficulty that could keep from eat
ing too much. / soon gained my strength, and
have grown in flesh ever since
81 was weighed shortly after my recovery"
added the Doctor, then looking like q mere
skeleton; my weight was only ninety
pounds; my present weight is two hundred
and twenty-five (225l pounds, and for years
have enjoyed uninterrupted health"
DR. Schenck has discontinued his profession
al visits to New York and Bottom. He or his
son, DR. j III. ScheDck, Jr., still continue to
see patients at their Office No. IS North Sixth
street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from A.
NJ. to P. NJ. Those who wish a thorough ex-
animation with the Respirometer will be
charged IS. The RespirOmeter declares the
exact condition fthe lungs, and patients can
readily learn whether they are durable or not
The directions for taking the medicines are
adapted to the intelligence even of q child
Follow these directions, and kind Nature will
do the rest, excepting that in some cases the
Mandrake Pills are TO be taken in increased
doses; the three medicines need no other ac-
compartments than the ample instructions
that accompany them: First create appetite.
OF returning health hunger is the most well
come symptom. When 1t comes, as it will
come, let the despaiTing at once be of good
cheer. Good blood at once follows, the cough
lOOsens, the night sweat is abated. In a short
time both of these morbid symptoms are gone
forever.
DR.. Schenck's medicines are constantly kept
in tens of thousands of families. As laxative
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are 9 standard
preparation; while the PulmODic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as
prophylacteric against consumption in any
OF its forms.
