Celebrated Liver Medicine,
It is purely vegetable, and will adt upon the
Liver and Kidneys as promptly as Calomel and
Buchu, without any danger of salivation or de
struction of the lames.
Parties taking the medicine need not fear get
ting wet, or any other reasonable exposure.
Symptoms of Liver Disease:
Headache, Dull Feeling or the Blues, Sour Stom
ach, Sick or Nervous Headache, Heartburn, In
digestion or Dyspepsia, Bad or Bitter Taste in
the Mouth, the skin has a thick, rough feeling,
and is darker than usual, Costiveness, Melan
choly Feelings, Cramps, Cold Feet, Colic, Dys
entery, or Diarrhoea, Chills and Fever, and
Piles. In fact, where the Liver is out of order,
you are liable to every disease that is not conta
gious.
Prophitt’s Liver Medicine, if taken properly,
will prevent and cure tiny disease resulting from
a deranged liver.
It will regulate its functions and thus cure all
diseases caused by the failure of its healthy ac
tion.
It has been used fov a great number of years,
and has given universal satisfaction.
There is no brother or son claiming to have
the origioual recipe. It is put up in both Pow
der amt Fluid form.
Fairburn, Ga., Sept. 4, 18(58.
DR. O. S. PROPIIITT:
Sir: My wife lias been an invalid for fifteen
years. Doctors all agreed she had “Liver Dis
ease.” In connection with their practice she
used various and noted remedies, none of which
seemed to do any good. Sometime ago I procu
red a bottle of your “Liver Medicine,” of your
agent here, C. A. llarvey, which being given ac
cording to directions, has affected a comnlete
cure. Respectfully, &c., GEO. L. THOMAS.
CIIARLOTTE, N. C., Sent. 24, 1868.
I have used I)r. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi
cine as a tonic, and found it to lie powerful and
efficacious. It is excellent for functional de
rangement of the Liver or constipation of the
bowels; in most cases superceding the necessity
of a regular course of medicine.

Dear Sir: I write you this to inform you that
1 have been troubled a great deal with indiges

Medicine, l find great relief. I cheerfully re
commend it as a good Family Medicine, anil feel
confident that it is good for anything for which
it claims to be an antidote. Verv respectfully,

Pain Kill It.
This is the celebrated medicine that run Perry
Davis’ Pain Killer out of the market, wherever
it was sold. Davis made Pronhitt change the
name from Pain Killer to PAIN KILT, IT.
For Rheumatism, Neuralgia, or pain of any
kl id it has no equal.
For Cuts, Bruises, Burns, or old Sores, it is the
best thing-you can use as a dressing.
For Snake Bites or Stings of Poisonous Insects,
it is a perfect ANTIDOTE.
I t is good for Colic, Colds, Coughs, or Bowel
Complaints. Its name indicates its nature fully.
It is truly DEATH to pain.

This is to certify that I was confined to the

fering the greatest agony imaginable with Rheu
matism, for live mouths, and after trying every
available remedy, with no relief, I‘was cured
with two bottles of Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Anodyne
Pain Kill It; each costing fifty cents only. It
relieved me almost instantly. I therefore re
commend it in the highest degree to others suf
fering from similar disease. I can say that it is
one of the finest Family Medicines now out, cer
tain. Yours, truly, ‘ W. A. FOREHAND.

DR. O. S. PROPJHITT:
I have, during the last eigcteen months, used
your Pain Kill It, and I consider it unequal ed by
anything for pain in the head, breast, back or

quick as your Anodyne Pain Kill.
It is doing much good in the community in o

OO^KtIVIPTIOIN,
Its Ciia’e and Sts Preventive
BY J. H. SOHENOK, M. D.
MANY a human being has passed away,
for whose death there was no other reason
than the neglect of known and indisputably
proven means of (jure. Those near And dear to
family ami friends are sleeping the dreamless
slujnlser into which, had they calmly adopted
DP. JOSEi’II U. SCHENCK’S SIMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious medicines, they would not li.kVo fallen.
Dr. Sehenck basin his own case proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vita -
ity, by his medicines and his directions for
their use, i.< quickened into healthful vigor.
11l thjs statement there is nothing presump-.
tuo’us. To the faith of the invalid is made no
representation that ; is not a thousand times
substantiated by living ana visible works. The
theory of the euro by Dr. Se-hcuck’*, medicin -s
is as simple as it is ui failing. Its philosophy
requires no argument. lt,is self-assuring, self
convincing.
The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pill? arc
the first two weapons with which the citadel
of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of t m
cases of consumption originate in d'spep'sia
and a functionally disordered Uvea. With tl is
condition the bronchial tubes “ sympatnlze*
\vitli the stomach. They respond to the morbi tic
action of the liver. Here then comes tlie cr i
minating result, and the setting in, withnll ts;
distressing symptoms, of
CON'StMI’TION.
Tlie Mamlpnke Pißs are cruyposed of one of
Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podophillum. Pclta
tmn. They possess all Hie blood-seaichirg,
alterative properties of calomel.
But unlike calomel, they
"LEAVE NO STING BEHIND,”
The work of cure is now beginning. The
vitiated and mucous deposits in she bowels a id
in tlie alimentary canal are ejected. The liver,
like a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its
torpidity. The stomach acts responsively, and
the patient begins to feel that he is getting, at
last,
A SIITLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
'lTie Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the.
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food.
Chylirieation is now progressing without its
previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless,
and the cure is seen to lie at hand. There is no
more flatulence, no exacerbation of tlie stomach
Aii appetite sets in.
Now conics the greatest Blood Purifier ever
yet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. fSehenck’s Pulmonic Syrup comes Into
perform, its functions and to hasten and con
plete the cure. It enters at once upon its work.
Nature cannot Ire cheated. It collects and
ripens the impaired portions of the lungs. In
the form of gatherings, jt prepares them for
expectoration, and Jo ! in a very short time the
malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that
it occupied is renovated and made new, and the
patient, in ad the dignity of regained vigor,
steps forth to enjoy tlie manhood or the woman
hood that was - r
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients must “Stay in
a waym room until tljey get well ; it is almost
impossible to prevent taking cold when tlie
lungs are diseasqd, but it must be prevented or
a cure cannot ho effected. Fresh air and riding
out, especially in this section of the country in
the winter season, tire all wrong. Physicians
who recommend that course lose patients, if
their lungs are badly diseased, and yet because
they are in the house they must not sit down
quiet ; they must walk about the room as mu di
and as fast, as the strength A ill bear, to get up a
good circulation of blood. The patients must
keep in good spirits—be determined to get well.
This has a great deal to do with the appeti :e,
and is the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, artd moral cer
tainty in all otjiers, is sinful. Dr. Schenck’s
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
cure was in those modest ivords :
Many years ago J was in the last stages of
consumption J confined to my lipd, and *t one
time my physjcians thought that I could rot
live a week; then, like a drowning man catch
ing at straws, I heard of and obtained the pre-
Darations which I now offer to the public, and
they npide a'perfect cure of me. It "deemed (o
me that I could feel them penetrate my whole
system. They soon ripened the matter in my
lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of
offensive yellovy matter every morning for a
long time.’ j ’ --v ;,. ■ . .
As soon as that began to subside*my cough,
ferei, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that it
was witL. difficulty that .I could keep from
eating,too much. I soon gained my strength,
and have grown, in ffesh ever since.”
“I was weighed shortly after my recovery,”
added the Doctor, “then looking like a mere
skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven
pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and
twenty-live pounds, and fox - years 1 tyave
enjoyed unintemipted health.”
Dr, Schenck has discontinued his professional
visit to New York and "Boston. He or his son.
Dr. J 11. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see
patients at their office, No, 15 XotthSixth street.
Philadelphia,, every Saturday from 9 a. in., to 3
p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination
with the Respirometer will be charged live
dollars. The Respirtmieter declares the exact
condition of the lungs, and patients can readily
leftrn whether they, are curable or artt.
The directions for taking the medicine arc
adapted to the intelligence even of a cl Hd
Follow these direetons, and kind nature will do
the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man
drake Pills are to’be taken in increased doses ;
the three medicines neod no other accompani
ments than the ample instructions that do
accompany them. First create appetite. Os
returning health hunger is the most welcome
symptom. When it comes, as it \ylll come, let
the despairing be of good cheer, . Good blocd at
onoe follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat
is abated. In a short time both of these morbid
symptoms are gone forever.
Dr. Schunok’s medicines arc constantly kept
in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard
preparation; while the Pulmonic dyrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may he regarded as a
prophylacterk: against consumption in any of
its forms.
Price of the Pulmonie Syrup and Seaweed
Tonic, $1,50 a bottle, or $7,50 a half dozen. Man
drake Pills, 26 cents a box* For sale by all

Inauguration
OF THE
New Town of Ayer.
At length the medicine man"
waa introduced by President Prescott
with high encomiums based 011 his
personal and life long acquaintance.
After thanking the audience for the
cordiality of their greeting, Dr. Ayer
spoke as follows ;
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On the western coast of Scotland
where it slopes into the Irish Sea, a
river, rising on the mountains of the
inner land, winds dowu among the
hills and empties into the Frith of
(31yde. From remote time it has been
called Ayr from an old Scotch word
*‘Ayry,” meaning an eagle’s nest—the
river of the eagle’s nest. Near its
mouth and a contiguous harbor, long
stood a hamlet which became a royal
burg or town named from the river,
and now about one-third as large as
Lowell—the city of Ayr. For more
than a thousand years it has been
noted in the history of Scotland. And
during the wars of Hubert Bruce it
was one of his resorts, was especially
favored by him because he w’as there
cured of leprosy. Oliver Cromwell
made iu one of the depots and head
quarters of his urtuy in, his atta. k upon
Scotland, and one of his old forts is
now the citadel of Ayr.
But above ail its distinctions, Ayr
was the birth-place of the poet Burns.
And what a poet! What a voice lias
he given to all the endearments of
home! How has he hallowed the
cottage and all it covers —weans and
wife, patches and poverty, beans, bur
-Iy, ait - , hardship and the poor man’s
toil, liow he wraps with tenderness
whatever he nanus, even his bleak
leagues of pasture, the Stubble field,
ice, snow, sleet, and rain, brooks,birds,
mice, thistles and heather. His Bonny
Doon, Joiin Anderson, my Jo John,
AulU Lang Syne, and Highland Alary
roll louud the world in ever ringing
symphony with what is purest and
best in human nature His songs woo
and melt ihe hearts of youth and
inaidens* bring solace to the sorrowing
and courage to the overburdened by
their lot. His inspiration has set the
affections to music in strains that are
immortal.
No other one man ever made a
language classic, but he has rendered'
that lowland Scotch a Doric dialect oi
fame. The name of his home and his
beloved river A3 r was lifted on the
wings of his pathos, and now the
approaching traveller yearns to reach
the spot his genius hab sanctified.
Along the borders of the sea in a
onrallelogram and surrounding the
town is a county of the same name—
Ayrshire.
It would weary your patience to
hear the history of my ancestors from
one ancient John of Ayr, then John
Ayr, down through the centuries to
this Ayer, now before you ; through
their vicissitudes of poverty and
ulelity —of fortune ana misfortune ;
how they have intermarried with Eng
land, Ireland and Scotland, and later
with the Americans, who are an excel
lent mixture of them all.
Mi/ friends, —you have chosen the
name I inherited for your town with
an extraordinary unanimity, and have
thereby conferred an honor upon me,
the proper acknowledgment of which i
do not feel fully able to express. But
I beg you to be assured that it is
appreciated and that it will be greatly
remembered with a living interest in
your prosperity while life remains to
me, and, 1 trust, be%onu that by my
children after me.
If this name has become noted
among the many that are worthier
around you, that is greatly due to its
publicity. May I Le permitted to
state whence that came ? Until within
a few centuries all the civilized nations
of the globe were pent up on the
Eastern continent. Two or three
hundred years ago they leaked ove*
into this; few and fearfully at first,
then more and more but always in
their settlements timidly hugging the
Atlantic coast. Within the last two or
three generations, they have burst out,
as it. were, and over run these vast
continents of the West. Now they
are scattered here and there and pos
sess these measureless stretches ot
mountains and valleys, lulls, plains,
forests and prairies with the boundless
pampas and mountain ranges of bouth
America. .Former generations lived in
villages and towns, thickly settled
together where physicians were plenty
and near at hami. Now, the people
are widely scattered, in many sections
of these many countries, lor great
numbers the timely treatment of
physicians cauuot be hud; over large
tracts of country good or competent
physicians cannot be had at all. They
cannot visit patients enough many
miles apart to live by their profession,
nor can they carry medicines enough
with them on horseback for their
Hence has arisen in
these modern times, a necessity for*
remedies ready at hand, with direction
for their us«-a present recourse for
relief in the exigencies of sickness,
when no other aid is near. It is anew
necessity consequent upon the changed
conditions of human life -a want I
have spent my years in supplying, and
I will tell you something ot its extent;.
Our laboratory makes every day some
CUU.UUO portions or doses of our pre
parations. These are all taken by
somebody. Here is a number equal to
the population of fifteen cities as large
as iioweli, taking them every day (for
j sickness keeps no S; bbaths) nor for
j once ouly, but again and again, year
j after year, through nearly one third of
i a century. We all join in the jokes
about medicines as wo do about tho
doctor’s missiou to kill, the clergyman’s
insincerity and the lawyer’s cheating.
Yet each of these labors among tho
most serious realities of life. Sickness
and its attendant suffering are uo joke,
neither is the treatment of them. This
system of transportable relief, to be
made available to the people, must
keep its remedies ever fresh in their
memories. This is done by advertising.
Mark its extent. An advertisement,
taking the run of the newspapers with
which we contract (1900 annually) is
struck off in such numbers, that w hen
piied upon each other flatwise, like the
leaves of a book, the thickness through
them is sixteen miles. In addition, it
takes some seven millions of pamphlets
and twelve millions of circulars to meet
the public demand for this kind of
information. Our annual issue 0/
phamplets uloue, laid solid upon each
other, make a pile eight and a quarter
mdes high. The circulars measured
eudwise reach 1894 miles, and these
assertions are matters of mathematical
certainty, Whatever the estimation
in which these publications may be
held here, they reach the firesides of
millions upou millions of men who do.
treasure and regard them, and who iu
their trials do heod the counsel they !
bring.
Not only over these great western j
continents but throughout that other i
land so little known to you, under our -
feet, the Australian continent, there
are few villages as large as this which |
are not familiar with the name you
have clioson, and employing tho reme- j
dies that bear it.
Thus, gentlemen, have I striven in 1
my humble sphere to render some j
service to my feilow-meu, and to j
deserve among the uflLoted and iiufov- j
tun ate some regard for the name
which your kind partiality hangs on
these walls around me. We may' look
foiward with confident hope to th»
renown you will gather under it, and
the prosperity, which there is reason to
trust tho future hits iu for, you.
Situated us you are here on bfie. oi Ihe
main arteries between the west rind
east, between the great industries of
the plougkunnd tho spindle you must
aid m their exchanges and thrive with
them. Soon these channels will b«
opened wide and pouring through
your precincts streams of men and
merchandise that will need your
furtherance and must contribute to
your growth.
Located here in the center of New
England to what dearer spot crin you
turn that men inhabit? Beginning
life rich wit Li the honor of your mother
town whose influence through her
schools and her scholars is of itself an
inheritance, with such examples as
Lawrence, Boutwell, Hoar, what may
you 110 L hope for cf usefulness in the
councils of the state and nation ?
Uoutrast our condition with that of
the European nations, ahernately torn
and impoverished with wars, credit i.
as you may to the better education of
tile people, and you will realize the
value of tlie example old mother Groton
has set you, so worthy to your ambi
tion to follow. Build schools for vour
children and find talent to teach them,
then intelligence and integrity in pros
perous and happy homes will be your
sure reward.
Associated as you have made me
with your weal and wo, I w ish I might
be allowed to contribute from my
means such as they are, something
toward this first foundation of the
public good.
Gentlemen, I have detained you too
long. Oppressed with the fear, that I
do not deserve the distinction yoti bo
s.ovv, I pray G&d to make me worthier
and to smile upon you with his great
blessings.

WHAT A MEMBER OF CONGRESS FOUND IN
WASHINGTON —THE HISTORY OF A MAID.
From the New York header.]
Now and tueii, in this suffrage-seek
ing age, one encounters an instance' of
the metamorphosis of sex—going as
far us an exchange of the distinctive
Habiliments. This used to be a very
favorable device with the novelists 01
the happy dead and burnd days ol
nigh and dry literature.
Even the immortal William himself
now and then ventured to attire one of
his heroines in a doublet and trunk, to
carry out some pet love project em
bodied in bis plot. .
But it is not often that in these
prosaic days of ours a young and very
pretty girl ventures to imitate Viola in
exchanging her skirts for the less
decorous garb of the sterner sex.
Yet such a case has turned up with
in the last day or two. And its
turning-up has exeiied tremeudous
scandal in the limited circle which at
present comprehends auu enjoys its
detail. In lbdC, a gay and festive
lawyer was elected hom an Illinois
district to the house of representatives.
While there he became distinguished
rather for his social qualities, his
downright- wickedness, and his stylish
dress than for any marked attention to
his duties. So loud became gossip
that a cousin of his wife who resided
in Washington, wrote down to her
quiet relative, severely unconscious in
the country, of her husband’s escapades
in Washington. The latter recounted
the deeds and the evil reputation of
her spouse, , Os course the wife stood
not upon the order of her going, and
S. IT. Smith S' ('<)., Proprietors.
I readied the capital just in time to
c it .k her husband recovering from the
I combined tffecis of a drinking bout
and a gambling spree. She slung
I some verbal pebbles at his aching
j skull, and he retorted with missiles of
the same kind. But this was no
! novelty.
At tho end of the session our festive
Congressman concluded to resign his
si at mid to transfer the light of his
presence to New Now. where he now
! practises his hum or profession, lie
| dispatched his wife to wind up matters
in Illinois, while he prepared for her
! reception in New York.
When the wife returned she found
him domiciled in state on Warmly
j place near Broadway, with a handsome
. youth about eighteen ymrs of age,
sniooth-i-h ived, curly-headed, bright
i eyed, and of a decidedly girlish ap
pearance, This interesting youhg
sUi.nget'our Congressman introduced
, to 1 is wife as an ex-page of the House
! of Representatives, whose bright face
and keen wit had attracted his fancy
aud j relection. Madame, on her part,
at once took a l.Jciig io the boy,
whose manners and language were
j singularly giactful and police. And,
tuVidnme, hiiur a while, fell desperately
m love with tiie pretty iellow, ana
pest red him in u most v icked and
unwisely way with little endearments
and attentions.
By some means this reached the
benevolent Congressman's ears, aud he
found lodging* for his protege else
where, and sternly upbraided lus wife
for her demonstrations of undue inter
est in the boy. Madam’s ire was now
provoked, and she hated the youth as
much us she had affected him. Three
days ago an anonymous note from
“ A T'liend ’ cautioned her against the
pseudo page charging her husband
with foisting a lady protege upon her iu'
this ingenious manner.
The wife, full of fury, charged her
husound with tnis, but he indignantly
protested the truth of the story, and
tffered to produce a corroborative
evidence.”
• The next day tlie '"page” Imd turned
in u hew direction, and was nowhere
to be found. But madam is now in
Illinois, aud monsieur can be seen any
line morning in the lobby of the United
States building in Chambers street.
Negro Impudence.— The Savannah
News relates that on Wednesday last
the conductor on the Central Railroad
train,, on taking charge at Miller., dis
covered a negro woman and her two
children in the Indies’ car. He imme
diately informed her that she could
not ride, where she was, but must take
u seat in a first class car especially
provided for colored people. She re
plied that she had ridden from Wash
ington (D. C.) in the ladies’ ear, and
that she held a hist class ticket and
would ride where she was. Though
politely informed that it was contrary
ko the rules of the company, she still
refused to move, and the conductor
called his train hands and had her re
moved to another car. She afterward
attempted to return to the car, and
the conductor, opp wing her, she slap
ded him in the face. * She was requir
ed; however, to ride in her proper
place to Savannah. Nothiug shows
more clearly negroes’ want of self-re
spect than their desire to force them
selves in places where they are not
wanted. Southern railroads are own
ed by white men, and they intend to
control them.
SfcyMvcty Tor Sni.ut-Pbcaiit! s#ar
let Fever.
The correspondent of a California
newspaper contributes the following,
which, if trfie, is of great value: ‘t
herewith append a recipe which has
’bvien used to my knowledge in hun
dreds of cases. It will prevent or cure
the smnllqiox though the pittings are
trifling. Vv hen Jenuer discovered cow
pox in England, the world of science
hurled an avalanche upon his head,
but when the most scientific school of
medicine iu the world—that of Paris
—fmblished this recipe as a panacea
for small-pox, it p ssed unheeded. It
is unfailing as fate, and conquers in
’every instance. It is harmless when
taken by a well person. It will also
cure scarlet fever. Here is a recipe as
I have used it, and cured my children
of scarlet fever; here it is as I have
used it to cure small-pox; when learn
ed physicians said toe patient must
die, it cured: Sulphate of zinc, one
grain; fox glove (digitalis,) one grain;
half a teuspi oiifuf of sugar; mix With
two teaspoonfuls of water. When
thoroughly mixed, add four ounces of
Water. Take a spoonful every hour.
Either disease will disappear iu twelve
hours. For a child, smaller doses, ac
cording to age. If countries would
compel their physicians to use this,
there would be no need for pest hous
es. If you value advice and experi
ence, line this for tlmt terriblejjiseuse.”
The Secrel of Youth.
There are women, who without any
special effjrt, remain always young
and always attractive. Their number
is smaller than it should be, but there
is a sufficient nuiiikr to mark the
wide difference between this class and
the other. The secret of this perpetual
youth lies not iu beauty, for some
women possess it who are all
handsome; nor iu dress, for tii-ey aie
frequently careless in that respect,
The cliarm, we imagine, lies in the
sunny temper— neither more nor less—
the biessed gift of always looking on
the bright, side of life.
