the house they must not sit down quiet; tkey
must walk about the room as much and as fast
as the strength will bear, to get up good cir
culatioa Of blood. The patients must keep in
good spiritS-be determined to get we'll This
has great deal to do with the appetite, and is

To despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral Ger
tainty IN all others, IS sinful. DIR. Schenck's
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
cure was in these modest words:

consumption; confned to MY bed, and at one
time my physicians thought thar 1 could not
live week; then, like drowning man catch
ing at straws, heard Of and obtained the

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 offensive yellow matter every morniag
for long time.
'As soon as that began to subside my cough,
fever, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that il
was with difficulty that l could keep from eat
ing too much. | soon gained my strength, and
have grown il flesh ever since
81 was weighed shortly alter my recovery"
added the Doctor ''then looking like q mere
skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven
pounds; my present weight is two hundred
and twenty-five l225) pounds, and for years /
have enjoyed uninterrupted health'
