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.

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.

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 druggists and dealers. JOHN F.

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.

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.
