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 nu-
triment of the food is converted into blood, and
thence into the solids of the body. Persons with
digestion thus impaired, having the slightest pre-
disposition to pulmonary disease, or If they take
cold, will be very liable to have Consumption OF
the Lungs In some of its forms; and hold that 1t
VIII DC Impossible to cure 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
mucous and slime, which is cloggipg these organs
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
sclienck's Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean ths
stomach and bowels OF ali the dead and morbid
slime that is causing disease and decay in the
system They will clear out the liver of all diseased
bile tlst has accumulated there, and rouse 1t up
new and healthy action, by which natural and
healthy bile Is secreted.
The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus cleansed
by the use of SchencSs Mandrake Pills; but there
remains in the stomach m excess of acid tho
organ is torpid and the appetite poor. In the bow
els the lacteals are weak, and requiring strength
and support. 1t is in a condition like this that
schenck's Scaweed Tonic proves be the most
valuable remedy discovered. 1t is alkaline,
and Its use will ncutraze all of acid, maxi
ing the stomach sweet and fresh; it will give per-
manent tone TO this important organ, and create
good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process OF a good digestion and
ultimately make good, healthy, living blood
Alter this preparatory treatment, what remains
to cure most cases of Consumption is the free
and per'evering use of Scienck's Pulmonic Syrup.
The Pulmonc Syrup nourfsles the system, purt-
fies the blood. and is readily absorbed into the
circulation, and thence distributed tho diseased
