thing to be done is TO cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all diseased mucus and slime which
are clogging these organs 90 that they cannot per-
form their functions, and then rouse up and re-
store the liver to healthy action. For this pur-

They will clear ont tho liver Of all diseased bile

The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the system. puri-

lungs, There it ripens all morbid matters, whcth-
or in the form of assesses or tubercles and then
assists Nature to expci oil the diseased matter in
the form of free cxpectoration, when once it ri
pens It is then, by the great healing and purify
ing properties of schenck's Pulmonic Syrup,
that all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound,
and my patient is cured.
The essential thing to be done in curing Con-
sumption is e get Up good appetite and good
