THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION.
1.-The primary cause of Consumption is derange-
ment Of the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. By
assimilation 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 If they take
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption Of
the Lungs in some OF it's forms; and hold that it
will be impossible to cure any case of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very first thing to be done is to
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, which is clogging these organs
that they cannot perform their functions, and then
rouse up and restore the liver to healthy action.
For this purpose the surest and best remedy is
Schenck's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels OF all the dead and morbid
slime that's causing disease and decay in the whole
system. They viii clear the liver of all diseased
bile that has accumulated there and rouse it up to
a new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile is secreted.
The stomach. bowels, and liver are thus cleansed
by the use Of Schencks Mandrake Pills but there
remains in the stomach excess of acid, the
organ torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow
els the lacteals are weak and requiring strength
and support. 1t Is In condition like this that
Schenck's 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; it will give per-
manent tone to this important organ, and create
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 persevering use of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup
The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system puri
ies the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
circulation, and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There it ripens all morbid matters whether

cess with my Medicines consists in my ability TO
subdue Inflammation instead of provoking it. as
many of the faculty do. An infamed lung cannot,
with safety to the patient be exposed to the biting
blasts OF Winter or the chilling winds of Spring
or Autumn. It should be carefully shielded from
all irritating influences. The utmost caution
