TTYES TO 60 TO FLORIDA ~
WINTER

HAVING for the last thirty-fvo years devoted my
whole time and attention to the study Of ing dis
fully the course that Oughs to be pursued TO restore
a tolerably bad case Of diseased lungs to healthy
soundness. The first and most Important step is,
for the patient to avoid taking cold; and the best
OF all places on this continent for this purpose In
winter, is Florida, well down in the State, where
the temperature is regular and not subject to such
variations as in more northern latitudes. Palatka
Is point can recommend. A good hotel lis kept
there by Peteman. Last winter saw several per-
nsthere whose lungs had been badly diseased but
who, under the healing inluence Of the climate and
my medicines, were getting we'll
One hundred miles farther down the river is q
point which would prefer to Palatka, the tenn
peratureis more even, and the air dry and bTacing
MellOnville and Enterprise arc located there l
should give decided preference TO Aieuonyfle: Il
is two miles from nver lake, and itseems almost
innpOssbletO take cold there. The tables in Florida
might be better, and patients complain at times /:
appetite; and when this Is the case, they generally
increase in aesh, and then the lungs must heal.
jacksonville, Hihernia, Green Cove, and many
other places in various parts Of Florida can be safe
" recommended to ccnsumptivcs in winter. My
reasons for saying 50 are that patients are less LA
Bile To take cold there than where there is q less
even temperature; and it is not necessary to say,
that, where a consump tive person exposes himself
to frequent colds, he Is certain to die shortly
therefore nv advice is 20 well down into the state
cut OF the reach Of prevailing east winds and fOgs
jacksonville or almost any other OF the localities
Ihave named, will benefit those who are troubled
with torpid liver, a disudered stomach, dersnged
bowels, sore throat or coughs but, for those whose
lungs are diseased, more southern point Is ear
nestly recommended.
For ffteen years prior to 1859, / was profession
ally in New York, Boston Baltimore, and T Philade-
phle every week, where raw and examined on an
average ATe hundred patients week. A practice
Boextensive embracing every possible phase oflung
disease, has enabled me to understand the disease
fAIly; and hence my caution In regard to taking
cold. A person may take vast Quantities Of
" "Schenek' s p PalmOnic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills, and yet die II he does not avoid
In FLORIDA, nearly everybody is using schencks
Mandrake Pills; for the climate Is more likely
to produce bilious habits than more northern lat-
tudes. 1t is well-established fact, that natives
Of Florida rarely die Of consumption, especially
New FneIand one-third at least Of the population
die Of this terrible disease In the Middle States,
It does not prevail SO largely; still there are many
of life would be saved If consumptives were as
easily alarmed in regard totaking eeh colds as they
ara about scarlet fever lPox, &c! but they are
not: they take what they term . little cold which
they are creduloua enough 70 believe viii wear OF
in q few days: Iney pay no attentlon 70 y, ana
other still, until the lungs are diseased beyond all
My advice to persons whose lungs are affected,
even slightly Is to lay in stock OF Schenck'B Pub
rnonic Syrup, Scheuck's Seaweed Tonic, and
Schenck's Mandrake Pills and go to Florida. re-
commend these neutrality-suspicious., because am
thoroughly acquainted with their action know,
that where they are used IN strict eeordanee with
my directions, they will do the work that y TO
Quired. This accomplished nature will DO tho rest,
The physician who prescribes for cold, cough, or
NIGHT sweats and then advises the patient to walk
or ride out every day, will be sure to have corpse
NV plan Is, to give my three medicines in accord-
aace with the printed directions, except IN aome
casea Were heer use Of the Mandrake Pills Is
necessary. Ny object ls, to give tone to the sson-
ach, TO get up good sppetite. As Is always

and with it more flesh, which Is closely Followed
by healing Of the lungs, then the cough ioOsens
and abates the creeping chills and clalyaY night

patient gets well, provided he avoids taking cold.
Now, there are many oOnsumptiYes who have
not the means TO go to Florida The question may
be asked, Is there no hope for sueh2 Certainly
there Is. My advice to such is, and ever has been
to stay in warm room during the winter, with
temperature Of about seventy degrees, which
should be kept regularly at that point BY means Of
thermometer. Let such patient take his exer-
else within the Euaits Cf the room by walking up
and down as much as nis strength viii permit, IN

cured very many. Of what seemed to be hopeless

So far Is the Mandrake Pills are eoncaned,
everybody should keep supply Of them on hand,
They act on the liver better than calomel, and
they are excellent in all cases where q purgative
medicine is req uired. If you have partaken too
freely of fruit and diarrh0a ensues, dose Of the
Mandrakes will cure you. II you are ubject to

eat Wstermel ons, pears apples, plums, peaehes or
corn without the risk Of being made sick by them.

wish a thorough examination with the Respirometer

declares the exact condition Of the lungs; and
patients can readily learn whether they are cur

that the value OF my medicines depends entirely
upon their being taken strictly according TO direc-
Hons.
In conclusion, viii say, that when persons
take my medicines, and their systems are brought
into Healthy condition thereby, they are not so
liable 70 take cold vet no one with diseased lungs

use them without consulting me, and can be
