CONSERVATIVES TAKE NoTIoE,-Every moment
of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much
depends on the judicious choice of remedy. The
amount of testimony in favor of DR.. Schenck's
Pumonic Syrup, as a cure for consumption, far ex-
ceeds all that be brought to support the preten-
sions of any other medicines. See DIR. Schenck's
Almanac containing the certificates of many per-
sons !of the highest responsibility, who have been
restored to health, after being pronounced incurabe
by physicians OF acknowledged ability. schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many, as these
evidences will show; but the cure is often promoted
by the employment of two other remedies which DR..
Schenck provides for the purpose. Thes additional
remedies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Man.
drake Pills. By the timely use of these medicines,
according to directions DR.. Schenck certifies that
most any case of Consumption may be cured.
DR.. schenck is professionally at his principal Office,
Corner Sixth and Arch Streets Philadelphia, every
Monday, where all letters for advice must be ad-
dressed. feb1deod3p&wlmsn
