CONSUMPTION,
Its Cure and Its Preventive

MANY A HUMAN BEING HAS PASSED AWAY,

than the neglect of known and indisputably prov

and ayailed themselves of his wonderful, eHaca-
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
DR.. Schenck has IN his own case proved that
wherever SUFFICIENT vitality remains, that vitality,
BY his medicines and his directions for their use,
is quickened into heaIhful vigor.
in this statement there Is nothing presumptu-
GUS To the faith of the invalid is made no rep
rssentation thst is not a thousand times substan
tiated by living and visible work. The theory of
the cure by Dr. Schencks medicines is as simple
it is unfailing. Its philosophy requires no ar
gument. 1t is self-assuring, self-conyincing.
The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
first two weapons with which the citadel Of the
nalady is assaulted. Two thirds of the cases of
consumption originate in dyspepsia and func-
bronchial tubes ''sym 2athize" with the stomach.
They respond t. the morbific action of the liver.
Bere then co1dss the eliminating result, and the
citing in, with all its distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one Of Ma
lures noblest gifts-the Podophillum Peltstum.
They possess all the blood searching, Alternative

The work of cure Is now beginning. The Vita

The stomach acts responsiyely, and the patient
begins to feel that he is getting, at last,

The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the

given by an indulgent father to suffering man.
Eehenck's Pulmonic Syrup comes in to perform
its functions and to hasten and complete the cure.
1t enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot
be cheated. 1t collect and ripens the impair ed
and diseased portions Of the lungs. In the form
Of gatherings it prepares them for expectoratiou,

GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients must stay
in warm room until they get well; it is a
most impossible to prevent taking cold when
vented or a cure cannot be effected. Fresh air
and riding out, especially in this section of the
country in the fall and winter season, are all
wrong. Physicians who recommend that
course lose their patients, if their lungs are
badly diseased, and yet, because they are in
the house they must not sit down uuiet; they
must walk about the room as mIuh and as fast
as the strength will bear, to get up good cir
CulatiOn of blood. The patients must keep in
good spirits-be determined to get well. This
has a great deal to do with the appetite, and is
the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral GER
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Schenck's
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
cure was in these modest words:
MANY years ago l was in the last stages of
confined to my bed, and at one
time my physicians thought that could not
live week: then, like q drowning man catch
ing at straws, l heard OF ana obtained the
which L now Offer to the public
and they made perfect cure OF me. 1t seemed
to me that / could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter
in my lungs, and would spit up more than a
pint Of offensive yellow matter every morning
for long time.
GAS 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 it
was with difficulty that could keep from eat
ing too much. | soon gained my strength, and
have grown in flesh ever since

added the Doctor, "theR looking like a mere
skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven
pounds; my present weight is two hundred
and twenty-five (225) pounds, and for years l
have enjoyed uninterrupted health."

compartments than the ample instructions
that accompany them: First, create appetite.

come, let the despairing at once be of good
cheer. Good blood at once follows, the cough
