The grea. prevalence Of this disease, and
| its fatal results, are well calculated to enlist
our best efforts fer its cure. What is con-
sumption? 1t is q disease Of the lungs pro-
duced by an acrid and impure condition Of
The blood, which. circulating through these
most delicate organs, poisons and ~irri.ates
their tissues and invites the scrofulous humors
Of the blood. causing the deposition Of tu-
bercles and establishing local s~crvfula. An
other prolific exciting cause Of the develop
ment OF scrofulous disease OF the luncs. or
turberculAr consumption, is Chronic Nasal
Catarrh, which. extending along the mucous
lining membrane OF the throat. trachea and
bronchial tubes, finally attacks the substance
Of the lungs. and here establishes such al
irritation as to invite the blood to deposit it's
burden Of impurities in these organs. Con
sumption itself is no. so often hereditary
a. is generally supposed. That a condition
OF low vitality may be transmitted from
parents to children is unquestionably true.
II is this deficiency of vitality which is in
herited-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 off the 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, weah, faint, drowsy and confused.
Pain IN the right side, in the region Of the
and spine, and through the lungs, is generally
complained of. The patient has q 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 lone to remove the tuber-
cles by the ordinary treatment. Cough is only
a symptom Of the disease, yet this only lie aimed
at in the usual treatment.
There is no Irrational way to cure consumption
except to purify the blood. Those poisonous
materials in the blood which cause the tuber-
cles must be thrown off by exciting the liver
to action. Vitality must be supported, the sys-
tenn nourished and bnilt up, and the develop
meht Of tubercles thus prevented. Remove
the blood poison by restoring the action of
the liver, and the cough, which is only a
symptom of the real disease, is relieved. You
thereby strike at tie root Of incipient consuo,p-
ton and cure DE patient.
From the properties and remedial effects Of
my Golden Medical Discovery. the reader will
readily understand why it has been 20 success
full i'll curing this fatal malady.
With it l have arrested the hacking and
harassing cough, the night swests and hectic
fever OF the cOnsumptive Invalid, snatched
from the jaws of death and restored to health
and happiness many who, but for my Discov-
cry, must soon have fallen victims to that re-
~lentless foe. God, l believe, has instiiled into
the roots and plants from which this wonder
full medicine is extracted, the healing proper
ties, by the use of which Consumption. the
scourge Of the human family, may in its early
stages be promptly arrested and permanently
cured. do not wish to delude, ~fiatter. and
then %disappoint the afflicted by asserting that
this can be accomplished when the lungs are
half consumed, as many do who, being devoid
of all conscience, aim to humbrg the afflicted,
that they may sell their often worse than
worthless compounds.
But If my Golden Medical Discovery is en-
ployed in tbs first or early stages of the dis
ease, / know from ample observation and ac-
tual tests in hundreds of cases, that it will
positively arrest the disease andrestore health
aud strength. From its wonderful power over
this terrible disease, l thought strongly of
calling it my Consumptive cure /; but from the
fact that 1t is a perfect specific for TIE sore
throat and hoarseness to which ministers and
other public speakers and singers are subject,
and also for Bronchitis, aud all sert1p coughs. |
and is an invaluable remedy for diseases of
the Liver, and also as a Blood Purifier, l de-
cided not to apply to it a name which might
ard prevent its Use in other diseases
for which it is SO admirably adapted. l wish
to mention a most wonderful nutritive prop
erty WHICH it possesses, and which so peculiar
ly adapts it to the wants of the consump.ive
and the scrofulous. The n~utri;ive properties
possessed by Cod Liver Oil are triiling when
compared with these possessed by my Dis
II is astonishing to see how it builds
up the solid muscle. and increases the flesh
