SCuENCK's SEA WEED ToNIC.-Iu the atmosphere
experienced here during the summer months, the
lethar-y produced by the heat takes away the de-
sire for wholesome food, and frequent preparations
reduce boCily energy, particularly those suffering
from the effects Of debiitating diseases In order
TO keep narural heulthfu activity of the system,
we must resort to artificial means. For this pur-
pose Schenck's Sea We,d Tonic is very efectual. A
few doses will create an appetite and give fresh
vigor to the enervated body. For dyspepsia, it Is
invaluable. Many eminent physicians have doubt
sd whether dyspepsia can be permanently cured by
the drugs which generally employed for that
purpose. The Sea Weed Tonic fn its nature is to-
tally different from such d:ugE. 1t contains no cor
rosive minerals acds in fact it assists the regu
lar operations of nature, and supplies her defcien
eies. The tonic in its nature so much resembles
the gastric juice that it is amos identical with tina
fluid The gastric juice is the natur solvent which
in healthy condition of the body, causes the fooC
to be dgested; and when this juice is not cxcrete(
in sufficient quantities, indigestion, with all 1T
distressing symptoms, follows. The Sea Weed
Tonic performs the duty of the gastric juice whel
| the latter is deficient. Schenck's Sea Weed Toni
