The great prevalence Of this disease and It's
fatal resulte, are well calculated 10 enlist our
best efforts for its cure. What is Consump-
tionS II Is disease OF the lungs produced
by an acrid and impure condition of the
blood, which, circulating through these most
delicate organs, poisops and irritates their
tissues and invites the scrofulous humors of
the blood, causing the deposition Of tuber.
cles and establishing local scrofula. An.
other prolific exciting cause OF the develop.
ment of scrofulous disease of the lungs, or
turbercular consumption, is Chronic Nasal
Catarrh, which, extending along the mucous
lining membr ane of the throat, trachea and
bronchial tubes, finally attacks the substance
OF the lungs, and here establishes such an
Irritation as to invite the blood to deposit It's
burden Of Impurities In these organs. Con-
sumption itself is not 30 often hereditary as
Is generally supposed. That condition of
low vitality may be transmitted from parents
to children is unquestionably true. II is this
deficiency Of vitality which is inherited
weakness which makes nutrition imperfect,
and leads to the deposit of tubercles. But
thousands OF persons who inherit feeble vital
ity would never suffer from consumption II
the functions of the system were kept correct
and the blood pure. When the liver becomes
torpid, and but very imperfectly pours off the
enete, poisonous materials of the blood, the
lungs, as has before been shown, become irri-
tated The general health becomes broken
down, and the cerson feels languid, weak,
faint, drowsy, and confused. Pain in the right
side, in the region OF the liver, and sympa.
thetic pain In the shoulders and spine, and
through the lungs, is generally complained of.
The patient has dry, hacking cough-that
liver Coughl Small, minute tubercles are de-
velored In the lungs, and perhaps exist for
months all unknown to their victim. Nothing
Is done to remove the tubefcles by the ordi-
nary treatment. Cough is only a symptom of
the disease, yet this Only is aimed at In the
usual treatment
There is no rational way to cure consump-
ton except to purify the blood. Those moi.
sonous materials in the blood which cause the
tubercles must be thrown off by exciting the
liver to action. Vitality must be supported,
the system nourished and built up, and the
development Of tubercles thus prevented. Re-
move the blood poison by restoring the action
OF the liver, and the cough, which Is only n
symptom of the real disease, ia relieved. You
thereby strike at TIE root of the incipient con-
sumption and cure The patient.
From the properties and remedial effects of
my Golden Medical Discovery the reader will
readily understand why it has been so success
full in curing this fatal malady.
With 1t | have arrested the hacking and
harassing cough, the night sweats and hectic
fever OF the consumptive invalid, snatched from
the jaws Of death and restored to health and
happiness many who, but for my Discovery,
must soon have fallen victims to that relent-
less foe. God, 1 believe, has instillcd into the
roots and plants from which this wonderful
medicine is extracted the healing properties
by the use Of which Consumption, the scsusge
of the human family, may in Its early stages
be promptly arrested and permanently cured. l
do not wish to delude, fatter, and then diaan-
point the afflicted by asserting that this can he
accomplished when the lungs are half con-
sumed, as many do who, being devoid of all
conscience, aim to humbug the afflicted that
they may sell their often worse than worth
less compounds.
But II my Golden Medical DISCOVERY is en-
ployed in the first or early stages of the dis
ease, know from ample observation and actual
tests In hundreds of cases that IL will positive
Iy arrest the disease and restore health and
strength. From its wonderful power over this
terrible disease thought strongly of calling
1t my Consumptive cure but from the fact
that it Is perfect specific for the sore throat
and hoarseness to which ministers and other
public speakers and singers are subject, and
also for Bronchitis and all setere couq6s, and Ia
an Invaluable remedy for diseases of the Liver,
and also as Blood Purifier, decided not to
apply TO 1t name which might mislead and
mi ifa In fIar Il
is so admirably adapted. wish to mention
most wonderful nutritive property which 1t
possesses and which so peculiarly adapts il to
the wants of the consumptive and the scrofu-
loHs. The nutritive properties possessed by
Cod Liver Oil are triAing when compared with
those possessed by my Discovery. It is aston
ishing to see how 1t builds up the solid mus
cles, and increases the flesh and weight of
those whose systems are reduced below the
usual standard of perfect health. The follow
ing testimonial fully confirms all that l claim
for my Golden Medical Discovery in the cure
of Consumption
