Hereditary Consumption Cured. D*. Sohknok: Iteir W 1B ths antwian es 0771 had a smro eoMh. with terrible pain In my sides and between my sbonldere. I had vesg little appetite, and what little I could eat only dlrtressedme. I consulted physiciana, who said my eondltion was a very bad one, and gave me five different cough syrups and tonics, from which I received no beneflt. but eeemed to grow woroe, and kept losing floeh and strength. I had night sweats, and sweat most of the dnrtng tha day. I coughed and raised blood and a salt, foamy phlegm; my throat waa filled with uloon, I could hardly swallow; sometimes I could not speak * loud word for weeks; my lungs grow more painful svurp day with difficult breathing, while pleurisy pains would alpwst stop my breath. I had colic pains, sour stomach and vomiting up everything I ate. My whole body waa filled with pain. J could not lie down, but had to reclino in a sitting posture to breathe. I gave up and did not think of ever getting up again, as it was hard movhik myself: my feet and ankles began te swell badly, and mg hips had given out long before. In thia sinking condition I thought I would try year romedy for consumption; it might do ms some good; it eould do me no harm, for I was certain I could not live a month longer the way I w«At that time—May, 1878—1 procured your Pulmonis Syrup. Seaweed Tonic and Pills, and took them as directed. In a week I waa better, and began to throw off from the lungs a greenish-yellow matter streaked with blood. I could cat a little without throwing it up, the pains in my sides were not so severe, I could e’eep an hour very soundly, and that was wbst I had not dons for three ■ton ths. I took your medicines steadily six months, my cough got bettor, I did not sweat so bad at nights, kept gaining alowly.and tn a year after I began your medicines I could say I felt well. I began to gain flesh, and last Septamber weighed one hundred and thirty-fire pounds, fifteen pounds more than I over weighed before in my life. Your medicines, I know, saved mylifs; and I would say, from my own experience, to all consumptives, taka Dr. Schenck’s medicines, for they will certainly cure you. I bad Onsumptlon; it is hereditary in our family, my father and two brothers having died of it. I have had better health the past winter than for ten rears previous. Yours respectfully, MRS. SARAH A. CARTBR. Carlisle, Mass., April sth, 1830. From Mr. Peter Christopher, of Pawnee, 111. Dr. J. H. Schenck 4 Son, Philadelphia: Gentlemen—ls you will excuse tbs liberty, I would like to state to you how your medicines have cured me of what seemed a fat il case of Consumption. Three years ago I was taken sick, and waa told by my physicians—who were many and from all parts—that I could not live three months. I took, besides a I their prescriptiona, at least seventy-five bottles of Oed-Liver Oil. At last, after everyihing else had proven fruitless, I wrote to you to send ms ton bottles of your msdiolns; to which you replied, advising me, for the sake of economy, to get it of the nearest druggist, which I did ; and, ■after having taken two bojtlM, my cough, which had been very violent, became easier; my ft lands, who bad been dea|>ondent, became encouraged, as I was, and I continued taking the medicine. I had coughed up immense quantities of blood and was very much reduced, weighing loss than one hundred pounds To-day I am well and hearty: my weight has increased to one hundred and eighty pounds. It is, without doubt, to your medicines that I owe my 11 e. I have no hesitation in declarina that they possess all the qualities you claim for them, and more too. lam still using them in my family as s preventive, for I have had no sickness for s lung time. Yours respectfully, PETER CHRIMTOPHER. PAWNKX, IIL, June 12,1875. DR. J. H. Schenck, Philadelohia, Pa.: Dear Sir—Seeing one of yonr sgenta distributing your books in this village a few days ago, has reminded ms of the past, and has made me feel that I ought to asknowledge with gntitude ths benefit I once received from your medicines. I was a soldier in the army from 1882 to 1865, and when mustered out was in a crippled state, having bad, during my service, scurvy and camp fever, which, with the malaria of the swamps in which much of our operations were carried on, left me diseased all over. I was soon attacked with chronic diarrhea and a constant, hacking cough. My whois nervous system waawompletely prostrated. I was apparently fast approaching tbs grave. In looking over the newspapers to find something advertised that would do me good, I found the advertisement of your medicines. Though I had but littls faith, I bought the Syrup and Tonic, and commenced their use. I soon found that what you said of your medicines waa true, for they worked an entire revolution in my system —my cough gradually grew less, until it disappeared altogether, as did also my diarrhea and other alarming symptoms, and I was entirely cured. I shall always hold in grateful remembrance two things—the “Cooper-Shop” Free-Refreshment Saloon for Soldiers, of Philadelphia, and Dr. Ehenok’s Medicines, of Philadelphia. I believe the roedicfnos saVed my life, as I have stated. Pardon the late acknowledgment of the great benefit I have received from you. Your obedient servant, JOBE 8. STEVENS, 16th Regiment Maine Volunteers, Auny of the Potomac. Present" Residence—Orange, Franklin Co., Mass. MAT 28th, 1881.

DR. SCHENCK’S MANDRAKE PILLS! Do not produce sickness at the stomach, nausea ee griping. <)n. the contrary, they are so mild and agree able in their action thaf a person suffering with a sick headache, sour stomach or pain in tho bowels to speedily relieved of these distressing symptoms. They act directly on the liver, the organ wftich, when in a healthy condition, purifies the blood for the whole body. They are a perfect preparation of that, great and wellknown remedy. Mandrake or Pedopbyllln, a remedy that has displaced the use of mercury, as well as many other polsonous drugs, in the practice of every intelligent physician. Prof. John King, of the College of Medicine, of Cincinnati, says: “In Constipation it acts upon tho bowels without disposing them to subsequent ooeUveneaa. In Chronic Liver Complaint there la not its equal in tho whole range of medicines, being vastly more useful than mercurial agents, arousing the liver to healthy action. Increasing the flow of bile, and keeping i«p these actions longer than any other agent with which we are acquainted.” (See American Dispensatory, page 7JU.) In all cases of Liver Complaint or Dyspepsia, when there is a great weakness or debility. Dr. Mchenck’e Seaweed Tonic should bo used In connection with those Pills. DR. SCHENCK’S MEDICINES: MANDRAKE PILLS, SEAWEED TONIC, < I PULMONIC SYRUP Are sold by all Druggists, and full directions for their use are printed on the wrappers of every package. The BesfFiefd yon.
