CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.

DIR. J. FL. SCHENCK.
Dear Sir:-About sixteen wears ago while
living in Canada, my health became very
poor. My disease came ON gradually, begin
ming with loss of appetite and afterwards
great weakness, which brought on night
sweats and dry, hacking cough. My chest
and back were very weak, and so sore that
could not bear my weight against the back of
chair. At different times / raised consider
able blood, which my physician said came
from the lungs. l employed several doctors,
but they all told me the same thing-that NV
lungs were badly affected; and the last one
that 1 had also said that could live but a
short time, and that had better go to nv
mothers home in Winstead, CT, as soon as I
could, that with careful nursing might live
for some time. When | got to my mothers I
was very low indeed, so that my mother sent
for her doctor. He pronounced me beyond all
help. He, however, left me some medicine
which he said would relieve my worst symp-
toms. After this my mother employed an
other doctor, who said that one of my lungs
was nearly gone. 1 ate scarcely anything for
several months, and never expected to get
well. One day friend who lives in Collins
vile, Ct gave my father one of your PAM
phlets on Consumption. He brought it home
and told me to look it over and see if any of
the cases described in it were like mine. l
read the book through, and found so many
cases described there that seemed as bad as
mine, that were cured, that 1 began to hope
that too might recover by using the medi-
eines My father finding that they were not
| kept in Winstead, sent to New York and got
| a supply. In one week after began their
use my night-sweats ceased, and my appetite
| began to improve. In two weeks after this I
| was much better in every way. / commenced
| to use the medicines in March; in July felt
| quite strong; in two months more was well,
! and have had good health ever since. be-
| lieve that I would not be alive to-day but for

had said my disease was Consumption, and
