The Cause and Cure of Consumption.

The Cause ana tufC oil tOnsuuipttOn.
The primary cause of Consumption is derange-
mcnt OF the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation by
assimilation | mean that process by which the nu-
trimcnt 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 its FORMS and | hold that
it will be impossible to any ease Of COnsump-
ton without first restoring good digestion and
healthy assimilation. The very first thing to be
done is to cleanse tho stomach aud bowels from
all diseased mucus and slime which il clogging
these organs so that they cannot perform their
| functions, and then rouse up and restore the lv-
or to healthy action. For this purpose the sur
est and best remedy is Schcnck's Mandrake Pills
| These Pills cleanse the stomach and bowels of all
| the dead and morbid slime that is causing disease
and decay in the whole system. They will clear
the liver OF all diseased bile that has accumu
lated there, and arouse it up to new and healthy
action, by which natural and healthy bile Is Sc
GREETED.
The stomach, bowels, and liver thus cleans
cd by the use of Schcnck's Mandrake Pills; but
there remains in the stomach OF acid,
the organ is forbid, and tina appetite is poor. In
the bowels, the lacteals a weak, and requil ng
strength and support. 1T is in II condition liAo
this tuat schencks Seaweed Tonic proves to be
the most valuable remedy ever discovered. 1t is
alkaline, aud its will neutralc all excess Of
acid making tho stomach sweet and fresh; 1t will
give permanent tone to this important organ, and
create good. hearty appetite, and prepare the
system for the first process of good diestiOn and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood AT
ter this preparatory treatment, what remains to
cure most of consumption is the free and per-
severng use of 5chenck's Pulmonic syrup The

blood and is readily absorbed into the circulation,

expul all tho diseased matter in tho form Of free

The essential thing to be done in curing Con.

digestion, 80 that the body will grow in flesh and

matter cannot rpen, 50 long us the system is be
