HERITABLE INVALIDS Indigestion not only effects the physiaa health, but the dispositions and tempers otits , victims. The dyspeptic becomes, too, In a measure demoralized by his sufferings.

These are the mental phenomena of the disease, for which the inva lid cannot be justly held responsible, but they occasion mach househeld discomfort. It is to the interest of the home circle; It is essential to family harmony as well as to the rescue of the principal sufferer from a state not far removed from incipient insanity, that these symptoms of mental disturbance be promptly removed. This can only be done by removing their physi cal cause, a derangement of the functions of the stomach and Its allied viscera, the liver and the ocnvels. Upon these three important organs Itostet ter's Stomach Bitters act simultaneously; TT a thorough and salutary change In their - condition.

What the Doctors Say: AMOS WOOLLEY. M. D., of Koschtska Coun ty, Indiana, says: "for three years past I have used ALLEN'S Luce 13A.LSAY. extensively in my practice, and I am satisiled there is NO bet ter medicine for lung diseases in use." ISAAC A. DORA'S, Id. D., of Logan County, Ohio, says : "ALLEN'S LUNG BaLsam not only sells rapidly but gives perfect satisfaction in every case within my knowledge. Having con ildence in it and knowing that it possesses val uable medicinal properties, I freely use it in my daily practice, and with unbounded success. As an expectorant it is most certainly far ahead of any preparation t have ever yet known." NATHANIEL HARRIS, M. D., of Middle bury, Vermont, says: 'I have no doubt it will soon become a classical remedial agent for the cure of all diseases of the Throat, Bronchial Tubes, and the Lungs. Physicians do not recommend a medicine which bas no merits, what they say about ALLEN'S LUNG BALSAM, Can be taken as a fact. Sold by all Medleino Dealers. SPECIAL NOTICE. SCIIENCR"S PULdIONIC SYRUP Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake PiIIS, will Cure Con sumption, Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken according to directions. They aro all three to be token at the same time. They cleanse the stomach, relax the liver, and put it to work; then the appetite becomes good; the food digests and makes good blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the dis eased matter ripens; in the lungs, and the patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This is the only way to cure consumption. To these three medicines Dr. J. ff. Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul monte Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the lanes, nature throws it off by tin easy expectoration, for 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 most be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver. so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the food will make good blood. Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re moving all obstructions. relax the ducts of the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved , the stools will show what the Pills can do; nothing has over been Invented except calomel (a deadly . poison which is very dangerous to use ex cept wait great care), that will unlock a gall-bladder and start the secretions of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake ' Liver - Complaint is one orthe most - prominent causes of Consumption. Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and alterative, and the alkali In the Seaweed, which this preseeption is made of, assists the stomach to throw out the gastric Juice, to al ics,n ve the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made into good blood - without fermonuition 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 stop chills, to stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing they de range the whole digestive powers, locking up the se cretions. and eventually the patient sinks and dies. Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, does not try to stop 1 a cough, night sweats, chills or fever. Remove 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 nas consumption, of courso the lungs are in some way diseasecbelther tubercles, abscesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lungs are a mass of Inflammation and fast decaying. In such cases what must be donel It is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost their power to make blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take Schenck's three medicines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the patient will begin to want food, it will digesteasily and make good blood; then the patient begins to gain In flesh, and as soon as the body begins to grow,the lungs commence to heal up, and the patient gets fleshy and well. This is the only way to cure consumption. When there is no lung disease and and only Liver Complaint and .Dyspepsia,Sahenek's Seavvesd Tonic and Mandrake Pills are stiflictent without the Pul monic Syrup. Tako the ldandrakePills freely in all bilious complaints, as they are perfectly harmless. Dr. Schenck:, who has enjoyed uninterrupted health for many years past, and row neighs 225 pounds, ,was wasted.away to a mere skeleton, in the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption, his physicians having pronounced his case hopeless and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery many thousands similarly aillicted have used Dr. Schenok's prepare tions with this same' remarkable success. Full di rections accompanying each. make it not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr. Schenck, unless the patients wish their lungs examined, and for this purpose he is professionally at his principal Wilco, Philadelphia, every Saturday, where all Letters for advice must 100 addressed.
