Poster is a ship owner and builder, edoing at Port Camel!, Canada. Sold by PERRY DAVIS & SON, Montreal, Agents for MEM SPECIAL NOTICE SCRENCIVS PULIIONIC SYRUP Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con ' sutnption. Liver Complaint mai Dyspepsia, if taken according: to directions. They aro all three to be taken at same time. They cleanse the stomach. relax theliver, and put it to work; then the appetite becomes good; the food digests and makes good blood; the patient begins to grow in tlesh ; the dis eased matter ripens m the lungs, and the patient outgrows the disease and gets well. ThiS is the only way to cure consumption. To these three medicines Dr. .1. If. &Lenoir, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pub monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the tunes, nature throws it off by an easy expectoration, fat when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight cough will throw it off, and the patient has rest and the lungs begin to heal. . To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liter, so that the Pultnonio Syrup and the food wilt make good blood. Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re moving all obstructions. relax the duets of the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is SOW, relieved ; the stools will show what the Pills can do; nothing Inns ever been Invented except calomel (a deadly poison which is very thiAgerous ex cept Wire great care), that will unfock a gall-bladder and start file secretions of the liver like Schmuck's Mandrake Pills. Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent causes of Consumption. Sehenek's Seaweed Tonic Is rt gentle stimulant, and alterative, and the alkali in Ilse Sesweed, which this preser'ption is made of ; assists the stomach to throw out the gastric juice, to dissolve the food with the Pu!atonic Syrup, and it is made into good blood without fermentation or souring in the stomach. - The great reason why physicians do not cure con sumption is, they try to do too much : they give medicine to stop the cough, to step chills, to stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they de range die whole digestive powers, locking up the se cretions. and eventually the patient. sinks and dies. Dr. Schenck, its Ins treatment, does net try to, step a cough, night sweats, chills or - fever. Itemove, the cause, and they will all stop of their own accord. No one can be cured of Consumption, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Canker, Ulcerated Throat, un-: less the liver and stomach are made healthy. If a person nes consumption, of course the lungs are In some way diseased,either tubercles, abscesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast decaying la such cases what must be done? it is not only the, lungs that sire wasting:bat it is the whole body. The' :stomach and. liver have lost their power to make blood out offood..N'ow the only 'chance is to lake Schenck's three medicines, winch will bring up a tone to the stomach. the patient will begin to want food, it will digest nosily and make good blood ; then the patient begins to gam in flesh, and us soon as the body begins to grow,tlie lungs comtnence to heal up, and the patient gets - Meshy and well. This is the only way to cure consumption. - When there is no lung disease, and only Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck 's Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sullleient without tine PO manic Syrup. 'rake the Mandrake Pills freely in all biiions complaints, as they are perfectly, harmless.
