THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION
The primary cause OF Consumption is derange
ment OF the digestive organs. This derangemen,
produces deficient nutrition ard assimilation By
assimilation 1 mean that process by which the nu-
trtment of the food il converted into blood and
thence into the solids of the body. Persons with
ugestion thus impaired, having the slightest pre-
disposition to pulmonary disease if they take
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption OF
the Lungs in some of it's forms: and hold that il
will be impossible to cure any cese of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion healthy
assimilation The very first thing be done is to
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime which is clorging these organs so
that they cannot perform their functions. and then
rouse up and restore the liver to a healthy action.
For this purpose the surest and best remedy is
Schenck's Mandrake Pills These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels OF all the dead and morbid
slime that is causing disease and decay in whole
system. They win clear the liver all diseased
bile that has lated there, and up to
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile is secreted.
The stomach. bowels. arr liver are thus clnansed
by the use of Schenck's Mandrake Pills; but there
remains in the stomach an excess of acid. the
organ is torpid and the appetite poor IN the bow
