The great prevalence of this disease, and it's
fatal results, are well calculated to enlist our
best efforts for its cure. What is Consump-
tom 1t is disease of the lungs produced
by an acrid and impure condition of the blood,
which, circulating through these most delicate
organs, posons and initiates their tissues and
invites the scrofulous humors OF the blood,
causing the deposition of tubercles and estab-
fishing local scrofula Another prolific ex-
citing cause of the development OF scrofulous
disease OF the lungs, or tubercular consump-
ton, IL Chronic Nasal Catarih, which, extend
ing along the mucous lining membrane of the
throat, trachea and bronchial tubes, finally at
tacks the substance OF the lungs, and here es-
tablishes snch an irritation az to invite the
blood to deposit its burden of impurities in
these organs. Consumption itself is not 30

That condition of low vitality may
be transmitted from parents to chill
dren is unquestionably true. 1t is this
deficiency of vitality which is inherited
"a weakness which makes nutrition
imperfect, and leads to the deposit of tuber-
cles. But thousands OF persons who inherit
feeble vitality would never suffer from con-
sumption If the functions of the system were
kept correct and the blood pure. When the
liver becomes torpid and but very imperfectly
pours of tho effete poisonous materials of
the blood, the lungs, as has before been
shown, become irritated. The general health
becomes broken down. and the person feels
languid, weak, faint, drowsy and confused.
Pain in the right side, in the region of the
liver, and sympathetic pain in the shoulders
and spine. and though the lungs, is generally
complained Of. The patient has dry, hack
ing cough-that liver cough Small, minute
tubercles are developed in the lungs and per-
haps exist for months all unknown to their
victim. Nothing is done to remove the tuber-
Giles by the ordinary treatment. Cough is only
u symptom of the disease, yet this only il
aimed at i'll the usual treatment
There is no rational way to cure consump-
ton except topurify the blood. Those poison
ous materials i'll the blood which cause the tu-
bercles must be thrown off by exciting tho liver
to action. Vitality must be supported, the sys-
tenn nourshed and built up, and the develop
ment of tubercles thus prevented. Remove
the blood poison by restoring the action of
the liver, and the cough, which is only sym
tom of the real disease is relieved You
thereby strike at the root of incipiert consulnp-
ton 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 sue
cessful in curing this fatal malady.
With it / 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 relentless foe. God, believe, has in
stiled into the roots and plants from which
this wonderful medicine is extracted, the

afflicted by asserting that this can be accom-
plshed when the lungs are half consumed, az
many do who, being devoid of all conscience,
aim to humbug the afflicted, that they may sell
their often worse than worthless compounds.
But if my Golden Medical DiScOUtrV is en-
ployed in the first or early stages of the dr.
ease l know from ample observation and
actual tests in hundreds of cases, that it will
positively arrest the disease and restore health
and strength. From its wonderful power
over this terrible disease, thought strongly
of calling it my Consumptive cure but from
the fact that 1T 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 Sc
cete coughs and liz an invaluable remedy for
diseases of the LIVER, and also as Blood
Purifier, L decided not to apply to it name
which might mislead and pre- vent its use in
other diseases for which 1t is so admirably
adapted. l wish to mention most wonder
ful nutritive property which it possesses and
which so peculiarly adapts it to the wants of
the consumptive and the scrofulous. The
nutritive properties possessed by Cod Liver
Oh are triflng when compared with those
possessed by my Discovery. 1t is astonishing
to see how it builds up the solid muscle, and
increases the flesh and weight of those whose
systems are reduced below the usual stand
ard of perfect health. The following testi-
monial fully confirms all that claim for my
Golden Medical Discovery in the cure of
