PHYSICIANS AS A RULE

are having but little success In CttrlnB what
are generally termed Mnlarial diseases, and
for this reason 1t Is quite frequently said that
they do not know what Malaria Is. Let US
see what tho principal difficulties are with
which they havo to contend. There Is an
old proverb whichsays, "You should always
tell your Doctor and Lawyer tho truth"
Did you do this when you first consulted
your physician in regard to those queer chills
followed by fushcs Of hcat--that numbness
and pain in all parts Of tho body which he
said was Malaria? Did you toll him that
you had often suffered during the previous
year with sour stomach, heartburn, nausea,
flatulence, constipation, and occasional grip
ing, and that your tongue had been coated
moro or less for u long time? Ifxsiot.. YOU
arc moro in fault than the~Doctor. You
probably told him tho tpntl, but not the
whole truth, and 1t isfrom this cause, this
neglect OF wlllt~are considered by many ~
-trilins ailments, that people arc compelled
to suffer long illnesses, which simple rcme-
dies will prevent If taken in time
Tho symptoms we havo mentioned are
those of a weak and bilious condition of tho
digestive organs and a diseased liver. They
arc borne by many with butlittlc complaint,
occupation, and scarcely mentioning his all
ments to his nearest friends. IIo sometimes
has an excellent appetite, eating heartily
and with great rolsll Az other times there
is positive disgust for all food. There is
with somo constant dull headache, with
dots before tho eyes, pain in tho right side,
sleepy, dull feeling after meals, u restless,
nervous condition at night, bad dreams, at
times great melancholy without apparent
cause, costivo condition Of tho bowels, II
coated tongue.
These symptoms, when not attended to,
arc sure to undermine tho system and pro-
duce tho most serious diseases. Typhoid
fever is caused by tho neglect Of these all
mcnts, Chills and fever aro always trace
able to an impaired condition Of the digest
i've organs. No ono was ever attacked with
Malaria whose digestion was good. Dys-
pppsia and Liver Complaint often lead to
Consumption. Tho digestive organization
is the basis OF health, and any deviation
from perfection is 4 'ngerous
How shall We keep the digestive organs III
such condition that the system will resist
disease?
Our answer to this is plain, and, we think,
reasonable. We must 90 the original cause
of the trouble. If the stomach has become
filled up with Shiny sccrctions, they must
DO removed, and this should be dono with
out irritation. The bowels must be purified
and cleanscd without weakening tho general
system. The liver must be reused to healthy
action and mado to sccrcto tho proper
amount of bile necessary to good digestion.
A few doses of DR.. SchcnclS's Mandrake
Pills will do all this.
They arc the great remedy of the ago
They have driven from use moro poisonous
drugs than any medicine ever brought be-
fore the public. Before their introduction,
mercury or calomel was Il remedy used daily
in tho practice of every physician. It is
now only used by the careless or ignorant.
1t is known as a violent mineral poison, and
would never be used by any ono if all knew
tho virtues of that great vegetable remedy,
Mandrake, as prepared by DR.. Schencle.
DR.. Schenck's Mandrake Pills arc sold by
druggists everywhere at 25 cents per box,
or sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt of

tiqp, Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, is
