rhs Cause and Cure of 0onsump-
tion.

The Cause anu VuTo Ot SOusumP-
tion.
The primary cause of Consumption Is de-
rangsmsnt of the digestive organs This de-
ran go ment produces deficient nutrition and as
similation. By assimilation mean that prOcess
by which the nutriment of the food is converted
into blood, and thence into the solids of the
body. Persons with digestion thus impA aired,
having tho slightest precipitation to PulmOns-
ry disease, or il they take cold will be very liza
BILE to have Consumption OF the Lungs in some
ofits forms; and Ihold that i, will be impos-
sibls to cure any case OF COusu npt.On without
FIRST restoring good digestion and healthy as
similstiOn. The very hrst thing tie be done is
to cleanse the stomach and bowels from all dis
CEASED mucus AMI slime which is ologging these
organs so that they cannot perform their fune
lions, and then rouse up and restore the liver
to a healthy action. For this purpose the sur
est aud best remedy is ScheneA's Mandrake
Pills. These Pills clean the stomach snd bow
els Of all the dead aud morbid slime that is eau
sing Disease and decay in the whole system
They will clear out the liver of all diseased bite
that has accumulated there, and arouse It up to
. = new and healthy aston, by which natural and
healthy bile is seoreted.
Tho sto mach, bowels and liver are thus clean
e sed by the use eff Sehsnek'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, and requir
;. ing strength and support. 1t is in a condition
: like this that sohsnck's SeaWeed Tonic proves
s to be the ost valuable remedy even discovered.
Is II is alkaline, and its will neutraiEe all ex
g cess of acid, making the stomach sweet and
fresh it will give permanent tone to this i'm
pOrtsnt organ, and create good, hearty apPe-
tite, and prepare the syste for the frat process
q OF good digestion, snd ultimately make good,
F" healthy, living blood. After this preparatory
treatment, what remains to cure most csaes Of
- Consump tiOn lie tha free and Persevering use Of
schenck's Pulnonic Syrup. TIE PulmoniC
