1 Having for the last thirty five years devoted
my whole time and attention to the duty of lung
diseases and consumption, / feel that under
stand fully the course that ought to be pursued
| to restore tolerably bad case of diseased lunes
to healthy soundness. The first and most impor-
tant step Is for the patient to avoid taxing cold,
and the best of all places this con tnent for ts
4 purncss in winter, is Florida, well down in the
\ State, where the mperature is regular and not
sub ect to sucn variations as in more North arn
/ attitudes. Palatki is point can recommend

had been badly diseased but who under the
healing influence Of the climate and my medi-.

Ny plan is to give my three medicines, in &C

some cases where freer use OF the mandrake
Pills is necessary. My object is to give tone to

is as easily cured any other disease Ii it is
taken in time and the proper kid OF treatment

So far the Mandrake Pills are concerned
