Zhe Cause and Cure of Consump-
finn


The primary cause Of Consumption Is de-
rangsment of the digestive organs This de-
rangement prod uces deficient nutrition and as
similation. By assimilation M an tn at process
by which the nutriment Of the food is converted |
ihto blood, and thence into the solids of the
body. Persons with dis esti.n thus imp paired,
having the slightest prsdlspOsition to pulmona-
ry disease, or if they take cold, will be very liza
BILE to have Consumption of the Lungs in some
ofits forms; and Ihold that it will be impos-
sible to cure any case OF Consa npt without
first restoring good digestion and healthy as
sanitation. The very hrst thing tie be dsne is
to cleanse the stomach and bowels from all dis |
eaased mucus AM slime which Is ologgi ng these |
organs so that they cannot perform their fune
tions and then rouse up ami restore the liv,r
to n healthy action. For this purpose the sur
est and best remedy ia ScheneA's Mandrake
Pills. These Pills clean the stomach sud bow
els Of all the 1ead and morbid slime tuat is can-
sing disease and decay in the whole systen.--
They will clear the liver of slt diseased BIKE
that has accamu atsd there, aud arouse II up to
= new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bila is Secreted.
The sto mach, bowels and liver are thus clean
sed BIZ the use ef schsnek's Mandarin Pills;
but there remains in the stomach an excess Of
acid the organ is torpid and the appetite poor.
In the bowels the lScterals Are weak, aud requr
ing strength and support. 1t is in a condition
like this that sohenek's seaWeed Tonic proves
to be the IN ost valuable remedy evan discovered.
IL is alkaline, and its will nsutra,iLe all ex
cess of acid, making the stomach sweet and
| fresh it will give permanent tone to this i'm
portant organ, and create good hearty sppe-
title, and prepare the syste for the frat process
OF good digestion, snd ultimately make good,
healthy, living blood. After this preparatory
! treatment, what renlslns to cure most cBses Of
oonsump tion is tho free and persevering use Of
schenCk's Puluonic Syrup. The Pulmonic
syrnp nourishes the system, purifes the blood,
and is readily absorbed into the circulation, an
thence Distributed to the diseased langs. There
1t ripens all morbid matters, whether in the form
of AbceFses or tuoercies, and then ASSISTS Nature
to exPel all the diseased matter in the form of
exPeetorstion, when once it riPens. II ia then
by the great healing and purifying properties Of
cavities are healed III sound, and mg patton is
cured
The essential thing TO be doos in earirg Cen
sumption i. to get up good appetite and a
good digestion, 20 that the body will grow in
fesh And get strong. II person has diseased
lungs, &C witty or sbscess there, the cavity can
not heal, the matter cannot ripen, 60 long the
syssem is below par Wat necessary to cure is
s new order of things, good sppetlte, good
nutrition, the body to grow in assh and get fat;
then Nature is helped, the cavities viii heal, the
matter will ripeu and he thrown eff in large
quantities, and the person regain health and
strength This is the true and only plan to
! cure Cons ump.iou, aui if person Is very b I'd,
( II she uugs are not entirely destroyed, or even
if enc lung is entirely gone. if there IS enough
vitality ef in the other TO heal M, there is hope.
, I have seen many persons cured with only one
sound lung live and enjoy life 20 good o d age.
This is what ssheacks Medicines VIII do TO eurs
Cousum ption. They will clean out the stomach.
sEoe;en and strsug tnen it, get up good d gss-
tioo, aud give Nature the assistance she needs
, to clear the system Of all tbs disease thati in

Hence II Is that I so strenuou9)y caution pull
monary patients against e1 posing themselves to
a- atmosphere that IS not genje, and pleasant.
Confirmed eonsumPtives' lungs are mass Of
sores which the least change Of atmosphere will
infsme. The grand secret Of ny suceess with

biting blasts of winter or the calling wines Of

ed from al irritating influences, The utmost

WIS myself cured By this treatment Of the
I worse kind Of Consumption, and have lived to
get fat and hearty these mauy years, with ons

since, and very many have been cured by this
treatment whom have never seen.
