My plan is to give my three medicines, in ac-
cordance with the printed directions, except In
some cases where IA freer use OF the Mandrake
Pills Is necessary. My object is TO give tone TO

Now there are many consumptives who have
not the means to go to Florida. The question
may be asked, is there no hope for such? Ger
taiuly there is. My advice TO such is, and ever
has been, to stay IN warm room during the
winter, with temperature of about seventy de-

Consumption is as easily cured as any other dis.
ease If IL rs taken in time, and the proper kind
of treatment is pursued. The fact stands undis-
puted on record that Schenck's Pulmonic syrup,
Mandrake Pills, and Seaweed Tonic have cured
very many of what seemed to be hopeless cases
of consumption, Go where you will, you will be
almost certain to find some poor consumptive
who has been rescued from the vey jaws OF death
by their use.
SO far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned,
everybody should keep supply of them on
hand. They act on the liver better than caomel
and leave none of its hurtfu effects behind In
fact they are excellent in all cases where pur-
gative medicine is required. If you have par

subject to sick headache, take a dose OF the Man

one of the Mandrakes every night or every oiher
