The Cause and Cure Of Consumption.

The primary cause Of Consumption is arrangement
of the digestive organs. This arrangement produces
deficient nutrition and assimilation, BY assimilation
l mean that process by which the nutriment OF me
food is converted into blood, and thence into the
solids of the body. Persons with digestion thus
impaired having the slightest predisposion to pull
monary disease, if they take cold, will be very
liable to have Consumption of the Lungs in some OF
its forms; and hold that it will be impossible to
any case OF Consumption without first restoring
good digestion and healthy assimilation. The very
first thing to be done is to cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all diseased mucus and slime which Is
clogging these organs SO that they cannot perform
their functions, and then rouse up and restore the
liver to healthy action. For this purpose, the
surest aud best remedy is Schenck's Mandrake Fills.
These Pills cleanse the stomach and bowels OF all
the dead and morbid slime that is causing disease
and decay in the whole system. They will clear out
the liver OF all diseased bile that has accumulated
there, and arouse it up 10 new and healthy action,
by which natural and healthy bile is .secreted.
The stomach, bowels and liver are thus cleansed
by the use OF Schencks Mandrake Pills; but there
remains in the stomach an excess OF acid, the organ
is torpid, and the appetite is poor. In the bowels,
the lacteals weak, and requiring strength and
support. 1t is in condition like this that Schencks
Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most valuable rem
edy ever discovered. 1t is alkaline, and its will
neutralize 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 or me 1rst process OF @oou
digestion, and ultimately make good healthy, living
blood. After this preparatory treatment, what re-
mains to most cases OF consumption is the free
and persevering use OF Schcnck's Punonlc syrup.
The Puilnonc Syrup nourishes the system, purities
the blood, and is readily absorbed INTO the crcua-
ton and thence distributed to the deceased lungs.
There it rpens all morbid matters whether in the
form of Assesses tubercEes and then assists Ma
ure to eNpe Ill the diseased matter in the form OF
free cxpectoration, when it rlpcns. 1t is then,
by the great healing and purifying properties OF
Schencks Pu!monc Syrup that all ulcers and cavi-
tics are healed up sound, and my patient is cured.
