cious medicines, they would not have fallen
DR.. S:henck has in his own case proved that
wherever sufficient Vitality remains, that vitality
by his medicines ana hts directions for their use,
is Quickened into heathful vigor.
IN this statement there is nothing presumptu-
Gus. To the faith Of the invalid is made no rep
resentatiOn that is not Thousand times substsn-
tisted by living and visible work. The theory of
the cure by DR.. Schencks medicines is as simple
as 1t Is unfaiing Its philosophy requires no ar
gument. 1t is self-assuring, self-cOnvincing.
The Seawsed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
first two weapons with which the citadel Of the
mslsdy is assai'ed Two thirds Of the cases of
consumption originate in dyspepsia and func-
uonally dlsordered liver. With this condition the
bronchial tubes "sym pathizeH with the ston ach.
They respond - the mOrbific action Of the liver.
Bere then comes the culminsting result, and the
citing in, with all its distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are composed Of one of Ma
tures nOblest gifts-the PodOphiluTn Paltatum.
They possess ali the blood searching, Alternative

A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, permeAtes and assimilates with the food

the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no more
fGtulence, no exacerbatiOn Of the stomach. An
appetite sets in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever vet

The second thing is, the patients must STAY

course lose their patients, if their lungs are
badly diseased, and yet, because they are in
the house they must not sit down quiet; they
must walk about the room a musn ard as fast
as the strength viii bear, to get up good cir

has a great zeal to do with the appetite, and is
the great point to gain.
To despair OF cure after such evidence of its
slOlllty 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 WOrJls:
"Many years ago was in the last stages of
consumption; conhnet 70 my BED, and at one
time my physicians though. that L could not

preparations which | now O0CT to the public

in my lungs, and would spit up more than
pint of offensive yellow matter every morning
for a long time.

do the rest, excepting that in some cases the
Mandrake Pills are to be taken in increased

compartments than the ample instructions
