Jacksonville, Hibcrna, Green Cove, and
many other places in various parts Of Florida,
can bo safely recommended to consumptivcs
! in winter. My reasons for saying 30 are that
patients arc less liublc to take cold there than
whero there il less even temperature, and it

tive person exposes himsclf to frequent colds,
he is certain to die shortly. Therefore, my
| advice is, 20 we'll down into tho State, out Of
tho reach of prevailing East winds and fogs.
Jacksonville, or almost any other OF tho To-
calities have named, will benefit those who
are troubled with torpid liver, disordered
stomach, deranged bowels, sore throat or

mcnded.
For fifteen years prior TO 1869, was profes.
sionally in New York, Boston, Baltimore and
Philadelphia every week, where saw and e1.
amncd on an average five hundred patients
week. A practice SO extensive, embracing
every possible phase of lung disc ase, has cna-
blcd mo to understand tho disease fully, and
hence my caution in regard to taking cold. A
person may take vast quantities of ''Schencks
Pulmonc Syrup, Scawoed Tonic and Man
drake Pills" aud yet die if hc does not avoid
| taking cold.
In Florida, nearly everybody is using
Schencks Mandrake Pills. for the climate is
more likely to produce bilious habits than
lished fact that natives OF Florida rarely die
Of consumption, especially those Of the South
crn part On the other hand, in New Eng
! land, onc-third, at least, OF tho population
die Of this terrible disease. In the Middle
States it dooH not prevail 30 largely, still
there arc many thousands OF cases there.
What vast per centage Of life would bo saved
gard to taking fresh cold as they are about
scarlet fever, smallpox, &c. But they are
not. They take what they term little cold,
which they are crcdulous enough to believe
will wear off in few days. They pay no at
tention to it, and hence it lays the foundation
for another and another still, until the lungs
are, diseased beyond all hope for cure.
My advice to persons whose lungs are
affected even slightly is. to lay in stock OF
schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Schencks Mandrake Pills and go
medicines because am thoroughly acquaint-
ed with their action know that where they
are used in strict accordance with my direc-
tions, they will do the work that is required.

The physician who preacribes for cold, cough
or night-sweats, and then advises the patient
to walk or ride out every day. will be sure to
have oorDse on his hands before long.
My plan is to give my three medicines, in
accordance with the printed directions, ex-
cept in some cases where q freer nse OF the
Mandrake Pills is necessary. My object is to
give tone to tho stomach-to get up q, good
appetite. 1t is always a good sign when q
patient begins TO grow hungry. have hopes

sumption is as easily cured any other
disease, If taken in time, and the proper kind
OF treatment is pursued. Tho fact stands
undsputed on record that Schencks Pulmo-
mic Syrup, Mandrake Pills, and Scaweed Tonic
have cured very many of what seemed to bo
hopeless cases of consumption. Go where
you WILL you will bo almost certain to find
some poor consumptive who has been rescued
from the worry jaws OF death by their use.
