BY DIR. j. II. SCHENCK, MD.

tV THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON.
SUMPTION.-Thc primary cause of Consump-
tlon 10 arrangement Of the digestive organs This
arrangement produces deficient nutrition and as.
similation. by assimilation, I mean that process,
by which the nutrimcnt OF the food is converted
into blood, and thence into the solids Of the body
Persons with digestion thus impaired, having the
slightest predisposition to pulmonary disease, or
II they take cold, will be very liable to have Con.
sumption Of the Lungs in some Of its forms /; and
hold that 1t will be impossible to cure any case
OF Consumption without frat restoring a good
digestion and healthy assimilation. The very arst
thing to be done is to cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all diseased mucus and slime which
arc clogging these organs that they cannot per.
form their functions, and then rouse up and re-
store the liver to healthy action. For this pur.
pose, tho surest and best remedy 10 Schenck's
Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the stomach
and bowels Of all the dead and morbid slime that
