HEAD THE EVIDENCE. "Facts arc stubborn things," and It Is to fact alouc tliat it Is desired to direct tbe attention of the readers of this article. Many years of severe and thorough practical trial have demonstrated beyond the pcradventure of a doubt the fact that the medicines prepared by me, and known as tho MANDRAKE PILLS, SEAWEED TONIC, and PULMONIC SYRUP, have proved extraordinarily successful lu tho cure of diseases of the Pulmonary onraus, or what Is usually termed CONSUMPTION. I am fully aware that there are many persons whose prejudices rule thcra so completely that 'proofs strong as Holy Writ" would fail to con vince them of the clllcacy of my remedies; and that there are others who, under no circum stances, could be prevailed upon to admit their merits, simply because such an admission would prove detrimental to their particular personal interests. Fortunately for the welfare of mankind, these doubting people form a comparatively small portion of the community at large. They are to be found here ami there, but, compared with the great mass of the world's population, their num bers aro so small that I dismiss them, and ad dress myself to those who are williusr to listen to the dictates of reason, and who arc disposed to admit the stron"; logic of well-established facts. We arc told almost daily that Consumption, the scourge of :ho American people, is incurable; that a man whose lungs are diseased must be given over to die; that he must abandon hope; and that the arrangement of his temporal as well as spiritual affairs should claim his earliest atten tion. If there were not facls as uudeuiable as that the sun will shine in a clear heaven at mid day to controvert these random and not unfre cmently harmful assertions, I should feel un willing to take up the gage of battle against tlicm; but, fortified with results fads -which neither theory nor mere assertion can overturn, I propose to prove that CONSUMPTION CAN UK CURED, and that the medicines I prepare THE MANDRAKE PILLS, SEAWEED TONIC, and PULMONIC SYRUP will, if used in strict accordance with the directions, in a majority of cases ctleet that which the faculty pronounced impossible then wi" cure Consumption. An ounce of solid fac t is worth a pound of theory. Let me, therefore, present the tacts connected with my own individual experience. Many years ago I was a confirmed consumptive, and, like thousands of other unfortunates, was given up Iq die. Eminent physicians pro nounced my case a hopeless one, and told mo that if I had any preparations to make for the liual solemn event, that I had better make them speedily. I believed this just as confidently as did the persons who thus allcctionately informed me that my days were numbered and that re covery was impossible. Still, the desire to live lingered in inv bosom. I was young, and clung to life with the same tenaciiy'ihal young meii, and old ineu too, ordinarily do. I-did not feel willing to abandon hope as "long is a single ves tige ot it remained. Iliad full faith in the sad information conveyed to me by my physicians, but still there was a lingering belief that some thing cotdd be done, though 1 kuew not in what direction to seek for the much-desired relief. It was at this gloomy and eventful period of my bintory that I first learned of tho roots and herbs limn which my remedies for this dreaded disease are now prepared. I procured and used them; and, to the utter amazement of all phy sicians, Liend, and neighbors began to im prove. My entii e system commenced to undergo a complete renovation. Expectoration, which formerly had been dillieult and painful, now be came comparatively easy. I threw oil daily large iiantities of offensive yellow matter. At the same time my long-lost appetite returned. l ate ireeiy oi sucu lood us was palatable to me, and which was at the same time nutritious and wholesome. Expectoration became less copious and less offensive; exhausting night sweats ceased ; the racking and harassing coiigh abated ; the fever broke; the pain departed; flesh planted itself on my sadly-wasted frame, and with Uesh came strength and lull health. From a mere skeleton I became a stout, stronir, robust man, and 1 have maintained both strength and llesh to this day. 1 weigh two hundred and thirty live pounds ; 1 am blest with an appetite vouch safed to but few men, while my digestive organs arc amply equal to all the requirements of a healthful condition of my system. Now, be It remembered, all these wonderful changes were wrought by the use of the medi cines I prepare MANDRAKE PILLS, SEA WEED TONIC, and PULMONIC SYRUP. A cure seemingly so miraculous uaturally created astonishment in the minds of those w'ho knew me. 1 was literally besieged on all 6ides. I had visitors daily who besought me to give them the remedies which had wrought the wonderful restoration and had wrested me from the very jaws of death. Letters were received bv scores importuuing me to impart the secret and inform the writers where tho specifies for consumption could be obtained. Others, who were too weak to travel, not satisfied with writing, sent for and consulted me in regard to their cases. To all these applications I responded as I was able. I had fully regained my health, and gratitude for the happy result prompted me to turn my attention to the science of medicine, with the hope of thereby being able to be of service to my suffering fellow-creatures. I devoted myself closely to my studies, and more especially to that branch of them relating to the terrible dis ease from which I had suffered so long and so much. I investigated it in all its fearful phases, in order to assure myself that my case was not an exceptional one. The closer my investiga tions the more satisfactory were my conclusions. I feJt convinced that teus of thousands of my fellow-creatures were dying annually from con sumption whose ca;s were not as desperate and apparently hopeless as mine had been, and I argued Irom this that remedies which had proven so effective with me would prove equally so with others. I prepared my medicines in a pleasant and attractive form, and auuouuced them to the world. The results are well known. Thou sands of suffering men, women, and children, who were on their way to the grave, have been cured, and are to-day living evidences of the fact that CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED; and I think I may say, without arrogating to myself anymore than is justly my due, that I have had as much experience in tho treatment of consumption as any other person in the coun try, and that my success has been wonderfully klLct" the reader remember that these aro not mere fancied statements. They are positive living facts of which I am the living evidence. There is an old adage which says, "What has been done may be done." I have been coin plately cured of consumption by the remedies I now offer to the public. Thousands of others have testified to similar happy results from their use, und thousands of others still might bo bene fitted as I have been could they but bo prevailed upon to try the virtue of The Mandrake nils, teaweed Tonic, and J'ulmouio Syrup. All that is necessary to convince tho most skeptical of their merits is a fair trial. Full directions accompany each of tho medi cines, so that it is not absolutely necessary that patients should see mo personally, uuless they desire to have their lungs examined. For thin purpose I am personally at my Principal Office, No. 15 N. SIXTH Street, corner of Commerce, eveiiy Sati kuay.
