AND HIS CLAIM THAT

Pulmonic Syrup,

AND
Mandrake Pills

plant, or are in Any Other
Way Threatened With
| Consumption.
The proprietor Of these medicines con
| scientiousy offers them to the public al
the only safe, reliable and certain remedje.
for pulmonary consumption. He recon-
mends them, with equal confidence, as al
most a specific for those morbid conditions
OF the body which, ii neglected, are apt tC
terminate in dangerous or fatal diseases o.
the lungs. Liver complaints and dyspep
sia are generally regarded as forerunners o.
consumption, and when these diseases
manifest themselves they require the most
+ prompt attention.
In order 10 understand how these med
| icines affect TIVE cures which are ascribed 10
their ag6r cy, it is necessary 10 have some
acquaintance with the Decuisrities of the
diorass. Pulmonary consum ption (Phthi'
sis Pulmonslis) is characterized by ema.
ciation debility, cough, hectic fever, and
purulent expectoration. This disease has
| always been the greatest scourge of the hu.
man race, aud ir has destroyed more lives
than famine sword and pesliience. An
| English writer, some years ago, computed
4 d
| Isle of Great Britain, 5000 annually die OF
consumption. The same fatality attends
| the disease in this climate. One principal
cause of the great mortality which attends
| pulmonary consumption is the lalse theory
| that it is incurable. This mischievous er-
ror causes many consumptive patients to
despair as soon as the nature of their ath ic-
| ton becomes manifest, and, when they are
| hopeless OF cure, they resign themselves
| to what they suppose to be their iDevite BILE
fate and die without making any effort to
prolong their lives. "Our doubts are trait-
| ors," says Shakespeare: coDsumptives are
often viciimiZed by the foregone conclusion
that thai cases are beyond tie reach OF
vfas3sEonary consumption is, in most
cases, complicated with disorders OF the
liver and stomach. Before the attack of
this disease (says French physiciaD) a
change takes place in the condition of the
blood, which becomes degraded in quality
and endowed with lower degree Of vital
ity." This change is caused by the imper-
feet action OF the liver, for one OF the Offices
of that organ is to strain and purify the
blood. Schenck's Mandrake Pills act on
the liver more promptly and effectually
than any other medicine. Hence they are
often prescribed by men In the first stages
of consumption, and In many other cases
when the torpid or diseased condition of

purgative. Concerning the use OF these
pills more will be said hereafter; in the
present connection it may be observed that
their operation correets that morbid con-
dition OF the blood which always precedes
an attack Of consumption, and Is therefore,
presumed 10 be one OF the principal causes
Of the attack.
writers as one OF the prominent causes OF
consumption, and they have good reasons
for this superstition, tor the absence Of nu-
triton In the blood leads to the formation
of tubercles. and dyspeptic diseases deprive
the blood OF its Dutritive properties. While
dyspepsia IS present II is almost, or quite
impossible for consumption 10 be cured.
For indigestion produces general debility
OF the system, ara this state OF debility Is
NEST unfs,orsbls to the re-estabIishment
Of a patients health; for how can ulcerous
cavities in the lungs be healed when the
stomach hs no power OF digestion, and
the sy stem Is too weak to prodsce that re-
action which is necessary for curel Nour-
ishing food after all 10 the material which
must brinf about this great change. Ny
medicines tnly Assist nature 10 overpower
the disease and TO produce healthy seore-
tons, insteif If the MORBID matter which
yitiates the blood. From these considers-
lions IL wit appear that tonic or strength
ening mediines are required in the treat
ment OF conumption, and especially such
medicines o. have an invigoratiDg effect on
the digestive organs. Schenck's Sea Weed
Tonic is compounded with particular refer
