Every moment of delay makes your case more
homeless, and much depends on the judicious
choice OF remedy. The amount Of testimony IN
favor of DR.. Schenck's Pulmontc IS yrup, as a cure
for Consumption, far exceeds all that can be
brought to support the pretentions of any other
medicine. see DR.. schenck's Almanac, containing
the certificates of many persons of the highest
respectsbility, who have been restored to healtA
after being pronounced incurable by physicians OF
acknowledged ability. schenck's Fulmonic Syrup
alone has cured mary, as these evidences viii
show; but the cure is often promoted by the en-
ployment of two other remedies which Dr.schenei
provides for the purpose. These additional RENE
dies are schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills. BY the timely use of these medicines, &C
cording to directions, DR.. schenck certlfes tina
most any case OF Consumption may be cured.
