DIR. SoHENoK's PULMoEIo SYRUP. SEA WEED
Tonic, AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These medi-
cines have undoubtedly performed more cures
of Consumption than any other remedy known
to the American public. They are COM
pounded Of vegetable ingredients. and con-
tain nothing which can be injurious to the
human constitution. Other remedies adver-
tised as cures for Consumption, probably con-
tain opium, which is somewhat dangerous
drug in all cases. and If taken freely by cor
sumptive patients, it must do great injury;
for its tendency is to confne the morbid mat
ter in the system, which, of course. must
make cure impossible. Schenck's Pulmonic
Syrup is warranted not to contain particle
Of opium. 1t is composed Of powerful but
harmless herbs, which act on the lungs, liver,
stomach, and blood, and thus correct all NOR
bid secretions. and expel all the diseased mat
ter from the body. These are the only means
by which Consumption can be cured, and as
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic.
and Mandrake Pills are the only medicines
which operate in this way, it is obvious they
are the only genuine cure for. Pulmonary
Consumption. Each bottle of this invaluable
medicine is accompanied by full directions.

glancing at the waistband, which was
