Every moment Of delay makes your cure more

choice of remedy. The amount Of testimony in

See Dr. Schonek's Almanac, contains the certil-
Gates of many persOns of the highest respcctabili

pronounced incurable by physicians Of acknowl.

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

age Of three years. at which time tie
size attained i half that which it Is 10

years the Succeeding increase is very
regulnr till the sixteenth year, being
Al the rate for the average man Of two
inches year. Beyond sixteen. the
growth is feeble, being, in the follow
