The Cause and Cure of Communion.


The primary cause Of Consumption Is lcrango-
mcnt of the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. By
assimilation mean that process by which the nu-
triment OF the food Is converted into blood and
thence into the solids of the body. Persons with
digestion thus impaired, having the slightest prc-
disposition to pulmonary disease or il they take
cold, will be very liable to have CONSUMPTION of
the Lungs in some of its forms; and I hold that
1t will BIO impossible to cure any cnse of Consump.
ton without first restoring n good digestion md
healthy assimilation The very first thing ia he
done is to cleanse the stomach and bowels from
all diseased mucus and slime which Is clorpinp
these organs so that they cannot perform their
functions, and then rouse up and rnstorc the liy-
or to healthy action. For this purpose the sur.
est and best remedy is Schcncks Mandrake Pills.
These Pills cleanse the stomach and bowels of all
the dead and morbid slime that is causing disoasc
and decay in tho whole system. They will clear
out the liver of all diseased bile that has nccumu
lated there, and arouse it up to now md healthy
action, by which natural and healthy bile il So

Tho stomach, bowels, and liver are thus cleans
ed by the use Of Scbcncks Mandrake Pills: but
there remains in the stomach nm excess of acid,

this that Schcnck's Scawccd Tonic proves to be
tho most valuable remedy ever discovered IL is
alkaline, and its use will neutralze all excess of
acid, making the stomach sweet and fresh; it will
give permanent tone to this important organ, and
create good. hearty appetite, and prepare the
system for the first process of good digestion and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood AZ
ter this preparatory treatment what remains to
euro most cases Of consumption is the free and per-
sevcring use of Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup. The
Pumonic Syrup nourshes the system, purifcs tho
blood, and is readily absorbed into the circulation

ccsses and tubcrces, and then assists Nature to
eypel all the diseased matter in the form of free
cxpcctoraton, when once it ripcns. II is then,
by the great healing and purifying properties Of
Schencks 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 to get up good appetite and n good
digestion, 50 that the body will grow in flesh and
get strong. If person has diseased lungs n cav
ity or abscess there, the cavity cannot heal, the
mntter cannot rpen, so long rs the system IL be-
low par. What is necessary to cure is II new or
dor Of things, good appetite. good nutrition,
tho body to grow in flesh and get fat; then Ma
turo is helped, the cavities will heal, the matter
will ripcn and DO thrown of in largo quantities,
and the person regain health and strength. This
ia tho true and only plan to Consumption,
and if person is very bad, if tho lungs are not
entirely destroyed or even if one lung il entirely

| have seen many persons cured with only one
sound lung, live and enjoy life to good old age.
This is what Schcncks medicines will do to cure
Consumption. They will clean out the stomach,
sweeten and strengthen it, got up good diges-
ton, and give Nature the assistance sho needs to
clear the system of all the disease that is in the
lungs whatever the form may he.
| 1t is important that, while using Schcnck'.
medicines, care should be exercised not to take
cold; keep indoors in cool and damp weather
avoid night air, and take outdoor exercise only
in genial and warm sunshine
L wish it distinctly understood that when I rec
commend a patient to be careful in regard to
taking cold while using my medicines, | do so
for special reason. a man who has but partial
ly recovered from the effects of bad cold is far
more liable to relapse than who has been
entirely cured, and it is precisely the same in re-
gard to consumption. So long az the lungs are
not perfectly healed, just so long is there imm.
'nent danger of full return of the disease. Hence
it is that so strenuously caution pulmonary pa
tients against exposing themselves to nm atmos-
phere that is not genial and pleasant Confirmed
consumptives lungs are mass Of sores, which
the least change of atmosphere will inhame. The
grand secret of my success with my medicines con-
sists in my ability to subdue inflammation instead
of provoking it, as many of the faculty do An
inaamed lung cannot with safety to the patient
be exposed to the biting blasts of winter or the
chilling winds of spring autumn. 1t should
be carefully shielded from all irritating influences
The utmost caution should be observed in this
particular, as without it cure under almost any
circumstances is an impossibility.
The person should be kept a wholesome and
nutritious diet, and all the medicines continued
until the body has restored to it the natural
quantity of flesh and strength.

worst kind of Consumption, and have lived to get
