The Cause and Cure Of Consump-
fiOn.

Tho primary cause Of Consumption Is de-
rangsmsnt of the digestive organs This de-
range nent produces deficient nutrition and as
similation. By assimilation mean that process ,
by which the nutriment of the food is converted
Into blood, aud thence into the solids of the
body. Persons with d. estion thus impaired,
having tho slightest prsdisposition to pulmons-
ry disease, or if they take cold, win be very iA
bic to have Consumption OF the Lungs in some
ofits forms; and IhOld that it will be impos-
sible to cure any case OF Consu npt.On without
first restoring good digestion and healthy as
similstion. The very hrst thing te be done is
to cleanse the stomach and bowels from all dis
CEASED mueus ana slime which 10 clog gin these
organs so that they cannot perform their fun G.
tions, and then rouse up and restore the liver
to healthy action. For this purposo the sur
est and best remedy is Schenok's Mandrake
Pills. These Pill, clean the stomach md bow
els Of all the dead and morbid slime that is cat
sing disease and deosy in the whole system
They will clear out the liver of all diseased bile
that has accumulated there, and arouse It up to
new aud healthy aston, by which natural and
healthy bile is seoretsd.
The sto mach, bowels and liver are thus clean
sed by the use eff Sehsneks Msndrakn Pills;
but there remains in the stomach An excess of
acid, tho organ is torpid aud the appetite poor.
In the bowels the lActerals are weak, and requir
ing 9Th and support. 1t is in condition
like this that sehenck's seawsed Tonic proves
. 10 be the most valuable remedy even discovered.

treatment, what remains TO cure most csses Of
Consumption is Tia free and perssvsring use Of
