medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Scbenk has In his own case prosed that
wherever suffioient vitality remains, that vitality,
by bis medioinea and the directions ioi
their use, is quickened into healthful vigor.
la this statement there is nothing presumptuous.
To the faith of the invalid is made nc
representation that is not a thousand timet
substantiated by living and visible works'.
The theory of the core by Dr. Sehonck's medicines
is as simple at it is unfailing. Its philotophy
requires no argument. It is sell-assuring,
sell-convincing.
The Scawood Tonic and Mandrake Pills arc
the first two weapons with which the citadel
of tho malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the
cases of consumption originate in dyspepsia
and a functionally disordered liver. With thie
condition the bronchial tubes " sympathise "
with the stomach. They respond to the morbific
action of the liver, llcre then comes the
culminating result, and toe letting in, with ail
its distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
Tbo Mandrake Pills are compcscd of one ot
Nature's noblest gifts?the PjdopbiUium Pcltalum.
Tbcy possess all the blood-searching,
alterative properties of calomel, but unlike
calomel, they
-LEAVE NO STINO BEHIND."
The work of cure is now beginning. Th?
vitiated and mucous deposits in the bnwcli
and in the alimentary canal aro ejected. Th<
liver, like a clock, is wound up. It arousei
i from its torpidity. Tlje stomach acts rcspon
sively, and the patient begins to feel that he it
getting, at 'ast,
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seawood Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food
Chyliflcation is now progressing without iti
1 previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless
and the cure is seen to be at hand. There ii
no more flatulence, no exacerbation of the sto
mach. An appetite sets in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier evci
' yet given by an indulgent father to suffcrinf
man. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup comes in t<
perform its functions and to hasten and com
plate the cure. It enters at onoo upon iti
work. Nature cannot be cheated. It collect!
and ripens the impaired and diseased portioni
of the lungs. In the fortn of gatherings, il
prepares them for expectoration, and lo ! in s
vety short time the malady is vanquished, the
rotten throne that it occupied is renovated ami
made new, and the patient, in all the dignit)
of regained vigor, steps forth to enjoy the manhood
or the womanhood that was.
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients must stn)
in a warm room until they get well; it is uh
most impossible to prevent taking cold wher
f the lungs are diseased, but it must be prevented
or a cure cannot be effected. Fresh ail
and riding eut, especially in this section oi
1 the eouatry in the fall and winter season, art
all wrong. Physicians who recommend thai
eourse lose their patients, if their lungs arc
badly diseased, and yet, because tbey are it
the bouse tbey must not sit down quiet | the)
must walk about the room as much and as fas
, as the strength will bear, to get up a good cir
eulation of blood. The patients must koep ti
good spirits?be determined to get wtfll. i'bi
lias a great deal to do with the appetite, an<
is the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after sueh eviJenee of it
1 | possibility in the woist eases and moral eer
tninty in all other*, i* sinful. Dr. Sehenck'i
personal statement to the Faculty of his owi
cure wis in these modest word* :
" Many years ago I was in the last stages o
consumption ; confined to my bed, and at om
time my physician* thought that I could no
live a week ; then, like a drowning man catch
ing at straws, I heard of and obtained the pre
parations which I now offer to the public, anc
they made a perfect cure ot ine. It seemed b
me that I could feel them penetrate my wboli
system. They soon ripened the matter in mj
lungs, and I would spit up more than a pin
of offensive yellow matter every morning foi
a long time.
, As soot) as that began toeubeide, my cough
fever, pain and night sweats all begun t<
Isave me, and my appetite b tic a roe so grea
that it was with difficulty that I could ke?|
from eating too much. I Soon gained inj
strength, and bare growu in flesh aver since.'
" I was weighed shortl/ after my recovery,'
added the Doctor," then looking like a men
skeleton ; my weight was only ninety, sevei
pounds) my present weight is two bundret
1 and twenty-live [225] pounds, and fbr years 1
have enjoyed aninterrnptad health."
i Dr. Behenek baa disoontineed his profea
sionnl visits to New York and Boston. Ha o
bis son, Dr. J. H. Bcbenek, Jr., still continui
1 to sea patients at their offloe, No. 15 North Sistl

, A.M. to it P.M. Those who wish a thorougl
examination with tha Hespiroineter will U

I exact condition of the lungs, and patients cai

The directions for taking the medicines an
adapted to the intelligence even of a child
i Follow theae direction#, and kind Nature wil
i do the rest, excepting that In soma eases tb<
