TIE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION
The primary cause OF Consumption Is derhnge-
ment OF the digestive organs. This derangemen1
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. by
assimilation mean that process by whlch the nu.
trment OF the food Is converted Into blood, ana
thence into the solids OF the body. Persons with
digestion thus impaired. having the slightest pre-
disposition to pulmonary disease or II they take
cold, will be very liable TO have Consumption O.
the Lungs In some of its forms; and hold that IL
will be impossible to cure any case of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation. The very flrst thing TO be done is 10
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, which Is cloggng these organs so
that they cannot perform their functions snu tncn

For this purpose the surcst and best remedy Is
Schenck's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels OF all the dead and moroio

After this preparatory treatment, what remains
to cure most cases Of Consumption Is the free
and ncrscverlng use OF Schcnck's Pulmonic Syrup.
The PulmonIc Syrup nourlshes the system, puri-
hes the blood, and is readily absorbed into the
circulation and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs There it ripens all morbid matters, whether
