LIVER COMPLAINT. AND DYSPEPSIA, If tnk-pii according to the direction. They are all three to bo taken at tbe same time. They cleanse the stomach, nlax the liver, and put It to work; then tho appetite becomes cood; tbe food dlgebls and makes good blood; the naUcut begins to prow in flesh; the dispaBod matter ripens In tho lungs, and tho paiient outirrows tne disease ana gets well. This Is the only way to cure Consumption. To these three medicines Dr. J. II. SCUESCK of Philadelphia, owes his UNRIVALLED SUCCESS In the treatment of Puluionnry Consumption. The Pulmonic Sjmp ripens tho morbid tua'.tcr in tho lungs, nature throws It oil" by an easy cjpectorrttion, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight cough will throw H off, and the patient has rest, and the luns begin to heal. To do thip, the Scuweed Tonic and Maudrake Pills must be freely ucd to cleanse tho stout tch and liver, so that the Pulmonic Sjrup aud food will make good blood. SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILL3 Act u pen the liver, removing all obstructions; relax the ducts of the pall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved; the stools will show whut tho pills can d; nothing has cvtr been invented except calomel (a deadly poison, which is very dangeious to uje uiiIhss with gtcat care) that will unlock the null blad der and tart the st'crollou of the liver like Scbtnck'. Mandrake Pill-. Liver Complaint, is one or I lie most l'rouii miit Causes of CouMiiuntioii. SCHENCK'S SEAWEED TONIC la a pen tic stitnu.nnt ami alterative, and t tie alkali in the seaweed, which this preparation Is made of, iif-s-isis the ."toiuaeli to throy out the gastric juice to dissolve the food with the Pul monic Syrup, ntid it is made' info ood blood without krmcutation or somiu the stomach. THE GREAT REASON Why physicians do ust cure Consumption K they try to do too much; they ulve mellcine to stop tbe cough, to etop chills, to stop night sweats, luetic lover, and bv so doing tiie.y derange the whole digevtivc powers, locking up the etcreuons, and eventually tho patient sink and dies. Dr. fcCIIENCK, in his treatment, docs uot'try to stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or fever.. Remove the cnue, and they will all stop of their own accord. No one can be cured ot Conunip tlon, Liver Complain Dyspepsia, Catarrh, C tn- kcr, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and stomach are made healthy. If a person has consump'.loti, of course the lungs are in some way diseased, cither tuber cles, abscesses, bronchcal irrita.ion, plueral adhesion, or tbe lungs are a mass of inrli'nmu- tlon and fast decaying. Iu such cases what must be done? It is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it Is the wholo body. The stomach and liver have lost their power to make blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take Dr. BCHKNCK'S three medicines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the patient will want food, it will digest easily and make good blood; tneu the patient begins to gain In tleh, and as soon as the bady begins to giow, the lungs commeuco to ueai up, and the patient gets fleshy ttnd well. This Is the only way to cure Consumption. WHEN TI1EHE IS K0 LUXtt DISEASE, And only Lire' Complaint and Dyipepsia, Sihenclc's Seaweed some and Mandrake Pith are snj)ici:ntt without the Pul monic )rip. Take the Mail' drake Pills reel;) in all bilioin cases, as tlmy are PERFECTLY HARMLESS. Jir.
