By ]. r. SCHENCK, N. ..
Many q human being has passed away for whose
death there was no other reason than the neglect Of
known and indisput2bly proven means Of cure.
Those near and dear to family and friends are
sleeping the dTesmless slumber into which, had
they calmly adopted
DIR. JOSEPH r. SCHENCK'S SIMPLE
TREATMENT,
and availed themselves OF his wonderfully efica-
cions medicines, they would not have fallen.
DIR. Schenck has in his own case proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vitality.

quickened into heaIthftil vigor.
In this statement there Is nothing presumptuous.
To the faith of the invalid is made representation

and visible works. The theory of the cure by DR.
Schencks medicines is as simple 1t is unfailing
Its philosophy requires no argument 1t is selfas-
The Sea-weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
first two weapons with which the citadel Of the
malady is assaed. TwO-thirds of the cases Of CON
sumption originate in dyspepsia and ftlnctionally
disOTdered liver. With this condition the bronchial
tubes "sympathizen with the stomach. They re-
spond to the morbiic action of the liver Herethen

The second thing is, the patients must stay In a
warm room until they get well; it is almost impOs-
esed, but it must be prevented or cure can not be
effected. Fresh air and riding out especially in this
section Of the country, in the fall and winter sea-

badly diseased and yet, because they are In the
house they must not sit down quiet; they must walk
about the room much and as fast as the strength
patients must keep In good spirits-be determined
10 get well. This has "A great deal TO do with the
appetite, and is the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its pos
elollity IN the worst cases. and moral certainty In
all others is sinful. DR. Schenck's personal state
ment to the Faculty Of his own cure was in these
modest words:
MANY years ago was In the last stages of con-
sumptioni confined TO my bed, and ct one time my
physicians thoughtthat could not liveaWeek. then
Ike drowning man catching at straws 1 heard Of
and obtained the preparations which now offer TO
the pshl1c 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 pint of often
sive yellow matter every morning for long time.
"As soon as that began 70 subside, my cough
fever, pains and nghtsweats all began to leave me
and my appetite became so great that Il was with
difhculty that could keep from eating too much.
l soon gained my strength, and have grown In flesh
ever since.
Il was weighed shortly after my recovery, added
the Doctor. " then looking like mere skeleton; my
weight was only ninety-seven pounds; my present
weight is two hundred and twenty-five (225) pounds

The directions for taking the medicines are adapt-
ed 10 the intelligence even of child. Follow these
directions, and Kind Nature will do the rest. exCept
ing that in the Mandrake Pills are to be
taken in increased dOses the three medicines need
no other Accomplishments than the ample instruc-
tons that accompany them: First create appetite.
OF returning health, hunger is the most welcome
symptom. When IL comes as it will come let the
