The great prevalence of this disease, and its
fatal results are well calculated to enlist our
host efforts for its cure. What is Consump-
ton? /, is disease of the lungs produced
Inv an acrid and impure condition of the
blood which, circulating through these most
delicate organs, poisons and irritates their
tissues and invites the scrofulous hui
mors of the blood, causing the deposi-
tjon of tubercles and establishing local
scrofua. Another prolific exciting cause
of the development of scrofulous disease is
the lungs, or turhercular consumption, of
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 an irritation as to invite the blood to de-
post It's burden of impurities in these organs.
Consumption itself is not so often hereditary
as is generally supposed That condition of
low vitality may be transmitted from parents
to children is unquestonably true. 1t isths
deficiency of vitality which is Inherited
a weakness which makes nutrition i'm
perfect and leads to the deposit Of tubercles.
But thousands of persons who inherit feeble
vitality would never suffer from consumption
if the functions of the system were kept cor
rect and the blood pure. When the liver
becomes torpid, and but very imperfecty
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
Ianguid, 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 through the lungs, is generally
complained of. The patient has dry,
hacking cough-that liver Cough! Small,
minute tubercles are developed in the
.Ia,N
all unknown 10 their victim. Nothing
is done TO remove the tubercles by the or
binary treatment Cough is onlya symptom
of the disease, yet this only is aimed at in the
usual treatment.
There is no rational way to cure consump
ton except 10 purify the blood. Those poi
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 nourishcd and built up, and the
development OF tubercles thus prevented
Remove the blood poison by restoring the ac-
ton Of the liver, and the cough, which is only
a symptom of the real disease, is relieved. You
thereby strike at the root Of incipicnt cOHSanlp-
ton and care tie 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 it | have arrested the hacking and
harassng cough, the night sweats and hectic
fever of the consumpuve 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, believe, has instiled into the
roots and plants from which this wonderful
medicine is extracted, the healing properties
by the use of which Consumption, the scourge
OF the human family may In its early stages be
promptly arrested and permanently cured. |

point the afflicted by asserting that this can be
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 worthless
compounds.
But if my Golden Medical Discovery is en-
ploycd In the first or early stages of the dis
case, know from ample observation and actual
tests in hundreds of cases that it 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 Consumpiiye cure; but from the fact
that it is a perfect specific for the sore throat
and hoarseness to which ministers and other
public speakers and singers are subject, and
also for BronchatiS and all Se0ere coughs, and is
an invaluable remedy for diseases of the Liver,
and also as IA Blood Purifier, / decided not to
apply to it name which might mislead and
prevent its use in other diseases for which it

most wonderful nutritive property which it
possesses and which so peculiarly adapts it to
the wants of the consumptive and the scrofu-
lous. The nutrltive properties possessed by
Cod Liver Oh are triting when compared with
those possessed by my Discovery. 1t is aston
ishtng to see how it builds up the solid mus
Giles, and increases the flesh and weight of
those whose systems are reduced below the
usual standard of perfect health. The fol,
lowing testimonial fully confirms all that |
claim for my Golden Medical Discovery in the
