THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CONSUMPTION.
The primary cause Of Consumption Is derange-
ment Of the digestive organs. This arrangement
produces deficient nutrition and assimilation. BY
assimilation mean that process by which the nr
triment Of the food is converted into blood, ana
thence into the solids of the body. Persons with
digestion thus impaired, having the slightest pre-
disposition TO pulmonary disease or II they take
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption OF
the Lungs in some of its forms; and hold that IL
will be impossible to cure any case Of Consumption
without first restoring good digestion and healthy
assimilation The very first thing to be done IL 10
cleanse the stomach and bowels from all diseased
mucus and slime, which Is clogging these organs so
that they cannot perform their functions ana then
rouse up and restore the liver to a healthy action
For this purpose the surest and best remedy IL
Schencks Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean the
stomach and bowels OF all the dead and morbid
slime that Is causing disease and decay In the wnoe
system They will clear out the liver OF all diseased
bile that has accumulated there and rouse 1t up &c
q new and healthy action, by which natural ana
healthy bile Is secreted.
The stomach, bowels, and liver are TINS cieanseo
by the use OF Schencks Mandroke Pills. but there
remains in the stomach an excess OF acd, the
organ is torpid and the appetite poor. In the DOW
els the lacteals are weak, and requiring strength
and support. II Is In condition like this that

Ing the stomach sweet and fresh 1t will give per-
manent tone to this important organ. and create
a good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process Of q good digestion, ana
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood.
After this preparatory treatment, what remains
to cure most cases of Consumption Is the ree
and persevering use of Schenck's Pulmonc Syrup
The Pumonic Syrup nourishes the system, purf-
fes the blood, and Is readily absorbed into the
circulation and thence distributed to the diseased
lungs. There It rpens all morbid matters, whether
