cure. Respectfully, ftc., GEO. L. THOMAS.
Charlotte, N. C., Sent. 24,1868.
I have used Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi

officacious. It is excellent for functional de

bowels; in most cases superceding the necessity
of a regular course of medicine.

CONSUMPTION,
Its Cure and Its Preventive
BY J. H. SCHENCK, M. D.
lITANY a human being has passed away. !
Jv J for whose death there was no other reason
than the neglect of known and indisputably
proven means of cure. Those near and dear to
familv and friends are sleeping the dreamless
slumber into which, had they calmly'adopted
UK. JOSEPH H. SCIIKN'CK'S SIMri.E
TREATMENT.
ami availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schenck has in his own case proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vital
ity, by his medicines and his directions lor
tlieir use, is quickened into healthful vigor.
In tiiis statement there is nothing presump
tuous. To the faith of tho invalid is made no
representation that is not a thousand times
substantiated by living and visible works. The
theory of the cure by I)r. Sohenck’s medicines
is as "simple as it is 111 failing. Its philosophy
requires no argument. It is self-assuring, self
convincing.
The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are
the first two weapons with which the citadel
of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the
cases of consumption originate in dyspepsia
and a function all y disordered livci. With this
condition the bronchial tubes. “ ~y ”:p_-»iize”
with the stomach. They reaper co the morbific
action of the liver. Here then comes the cul
minating result, and the setting in, with all its
distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are esm posed of one of
Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podophillum Pelta
tum. They possess all the blood-searching,
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 the bowels and
in the alimentary canal are ejected. The liver,
like a dock, 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 SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
PillSj permeates ami assimilates with the food.
Chylification is now progressing without its
previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless,
and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no
more flatulence, flo exacerbation of the stomach
An appetite sets in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever
yet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup comes in to
perform its functions and to hasten and com
plete the cure. It enters at once upon its work.
Nature cannot be cheated. It collects and
ripens the impaired portions of the lungs. In
the form of gatherings, it prepares them for
expectoration, and lo ! in a very short time the
malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that
it occupied is renovated and made new, and the
patient, in all the dignity of regained vigor,
steps forth to enjoy the manhood or the woman
hood that was
GIVEN UP AS LOST.
The second thing is, the patients must stay in
a warm room until they get well ; it is almost
impossible to prevent taking cold when the
lungs are diseased, but it must be prevented or
a cure cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding
out, especially in this section of the country in
the winter season, are all wrong. Physicians
who recommend tliat 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 much
and as fast as the strength will bear, to get up a
food circulation of blood. The patients must
eep in good spirits—be determined to get well.
This has a great deal to do with the appetite,
and is the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral cer
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Schenck’s
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
cure was in these modest words ;
Many years ago 1 was in the last stages of
consumption ; confined to my bed, and at one
time my physicians thought that I could not
live a week; then, like a drowning man catch
ing at straws, I heard of and obtained the pre
parations which I now offer to the public, and
they made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to
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 yellow matter every morning for a
long time.
As soon as that began to subside my cough,
fevei, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, ami my appetite became so great that it
was with difficulty that I could keep from
eating too much, i soon gained my strength,
and have grown in flesh 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
twentv-five pounds, and for vears I have
“ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.”
Dr. Schenck has discontinued lus professional
visit to New York and Boston. He or his sou.
Dr. J H. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see
patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street.
Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. m., to 3
p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination
with the Respirometer will be charged five
dollars. The Itespirometer declares the exact
condition of the lungs, and patients can readily
learn whether they are curable or not.
The directions for taking the medicine are
adapted to the intelligence even of a child
Follow these directons, 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 need no other accompani
ments than the ample instructions that do
accompany them. First create appetite. Os
returning"health hunger is the most welcome
svmptoni. When it comes, as it ivill come, let
the despairing be of good cheer. Good blood at
once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat
is abated. In a short time both of these morbid
symptoms are gone forever.
Dr. Schenck’s medicines are constantly kept
in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills arc a standard
preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as a
prophylacteric against consumption in any of
its forms.
Price of the Pulmonic Syrup and Seaweed
Tonic, $1,50 a bottle, or $7.50 a half dozen. Man
drake Pills, 25 cents a box. For sale hy all

We've been a gatherin’ this for years, a lit
tle at a time.
There was a stock of temper wo both had,
for a start;
Although we ne’er suspected ’twouldtake us
two apart;
I had various failings, bred in the flesh and
bone.
And Betsey, like all good women, had a tem
per of her own.
The Jflrst thing I remembered whereon we
disagreed
Was somethin’ concernin’ heaven—a differ
ence in our creed.
We arg’ed the thing at breakfast—we ar’ged
the t hin«- at tea—
And the more we arg’cd the question, the
more wc didn’t agree.
And the next that I remember was when
we lost a cow ;
She had kicked the bucket, for certain—the
question was only—How ?
I held my own opinion, aud Betsey another
had;
And when we were done a talkin’, we both
of us was mad.
And the next that I remember, it started in
a joke;
But full for a week it lasted, and neither of
us spoke.
And the next was when I scolded because
she broke a bowl; *
And she said I was mean and stingy, and
had’et any soul.
And so that bowl kept pourin' dissensions
in our cup;
And so that blamed cow-critter was always
a cornin’ up ;
And so that heaven we arg’ed no nearer to
us got,
But it gives us a taste of somethin’ a thou
sand times as hot.
And so the thing kept workin’, and all the
self-same way.
Always somethin’ to arg’e, and somethin
sharp to say.
Aud down on us come the neighbors, a coup
le dozen strong,
And lent their kindest service for to help
tho thing along.
And there has been days together—and
many a weary week—
We was both of us eross and spunky, and both
too proud to speak.
And I have been thinkin’ and thinkin’, the
whole of the winter and fall,
If I can’t live kind with a woman, why,
then 1 won’t at all.
And so I have talked with Betsey, and Bet
sey ha 9 talked with me ;
And we have agreed together that wo c&n’t
never agree ;
And what is hers shall be hers, and what is
mine shall be mine;
And I’ll put it in the agreement, and take it
to her to sign.
Write on the paper, lawyer—the very first
paragraph—
Os all the farm aud live-stock, that she
shall have her half.
For she has helped to earn it through many
a weary day,
And it’s nothing moro than justice that
Betsey has her pay.
Give her the house and homestead ; a man
can thrive and roam,
But women are skeory critters, unless they
have a home,
And I have always determined, and never
failed to say,
That Betsey never should want a home, if I
was taken away.
There is a little hard money that’s drawing
tolerable pay;
A couple of hundred dollars laid by for a
rainy day;
Safe in the hands of honest men, and easy
to get at ;
Put in another clause, there, and give her
half of that.
Yes, I see you smile, sir, at my givin’ her so
much ;
Yes, divorce is cheap, sir, but I take ne
stock in such.
True and fair I married her, when she was
blithe and young ;
And Bet9ey was always good to tae, except
with her tongue.
Once, when I was young as you, and not so
smart, perhaps,
For me she mittened a lawyer, and several
other chaps ;
And all of them were flustered and fairly
tak?n down.
And I for a time was counted the luckiest
man in town.
Once, when I had a fever—l won’t forget
it soon —
I was hot as a basted turkey and crazy as a
loon
Never an hour went by me when she was
out of sight;
She nursed me true and tender, and stuck
to me day and night.
And if ever a house was tidy, and ever a
kitchen clean,
liar house and kitchen was tidy as any I
ever seen,
And I don't complain of Betsey or ft ij of
her acts,
Excepting when we have quarreled and told
each other facts.
80 draw up the paper, lawyer; and I’ll go
home to-night,
And read the agreement to her, and see if
its all right;
And then in the morning I'li sell to a
trading man I know—
And kiss the child that was left to ub aud
out in the world I’ll go.
And one thing put in the paper, which first
to me did not occur ;
That when I am dofd at last she’ll bring me
back to her,
And lay me under the maples I planted
years ago,
VThcn she and I was happy before we
quarreled so.
And when she dies I wish that she would be
laid by me;
And lying together in silence, perhaps wo
will agree;
And if ever we meet in heaven, I wouldn’t
think it queer
If we loved oaefi* other the better because
we have quarreled here.
Ills First I£!ss.
The Rov. John Brown cotirted a
lady upward of six years, and was so
singularly modest and bashful that he
never ventured to kiss her. One day
it occurred to him that it would not
be a bad thing to do. So, it is recorded,
he said : “ Mary, my woman, we have
been acquainted now for six years, an’
—an —l’ve never got a kiss vet. D’ye
think I may take one, my bonnie lass?'
The reply was wonderfully character
istic of the Scottish maiden. “Just as
you like, John,” said she, “only be
becomiu’ and proper \vi’ it.” Surely,
Mary,” said Johrr r “we’ll ask a blessin.”
Tho blessing was asked, and the kiss
exchanged. “ O woman,” said the
enraptured minister, “ O woman” it
was gude. We’ll noo re.urn thanks.”
And they did.— Religious Telegraph.

“Those Editors.” —A Californian is
puzzled to know how he can get # ahead
of those editors. He says that an ef
fort to deny them information is cer
tain to result in wholesale publication
of what ought not to be known.—
Whenever they are sued for libel the
plaintiff in the case gets whipped.—
Whenever a fellow goes for them with
a horsewhip he knows how it is himself
—that is, how the horsewhip is. If
they are attacked through their papers,
they invariably get the last lick; and if
they are remoustrated with the affair
is reported at length as owe of those
interviews. But he flatters himself
that, ufter all he knows how to fix them.
“We shall,” says he, “paste a slip of
paper inscribed with the ten command
ments over the sally-port of a hornet’s
nest, and leave the concern on the ed
itor’s desk. The villian can’t stand
the decalogue; he can’t see it without
dropping everything and methodically
violating each separate injunction; he
is as certain to punch his fist through
that paper as was Ulysses to unseal his
sack of storms.” If this man wants
to die, he had better try the thing on,
that’s all.
The Oddest Funeral on Record.
.The New Orleans Times tells the fol
lowing story;
A few days ago it became the pain
ful duty of a well known sexton to
commit to its last resting place the
mortal remains of one who hud died
far away from home and kindred.—
The unfortunate, in obedience to an
earnest solicitation made prior to his
demise, had been disinterred, and
brought from Texas, to be placed by
the side of thosd of his faith and race.
The sext_n being a conscientious mull,
complied with his duty strictly, and
the ceremonies art described as having
been most impressive. About the same
time a well known dry goods mer
chant received a letter from his broth
er, residing in ludisnola, informing
him of the shipment of a case of dress
patterns which he desired to have sold
for his account. The articles did not
arrive, but in due time the freight hill
was presented and payment was de
clined. The agent insisted that he
could show a receipt, and produced
one, which, however, was sigued by the
sexton alluded to. The gentleman was
called upon, but, while ho admitted
the signature to the receipt bore a
remarkable resemblance to his own,
he hud no knowledge whatever of the
goods. Mentioning casually that at
about the same he had received a
corps, an investigation was determin
ed on. Iu company with the sexton the
geuteinen visited, the cemetery, and
discovered that the dress patterns had
been buried with fuueral honors. The
goods are of course ruined latterly, and
the corps has not yet airivect. But
the joke is considered worth twice the
value cf the invoice.

The nose nets like a custom house offi
cer to the system. It is highly sensitive
to the odor of the most poisonous sub
stances. It readily detec s hemlock,
henbane, monkshood, and the plants
containing prussic acid; it recognizes
the fetid smoll the poiuted air. The
nose is so sensitive that it distinguish
es air containing the 20Q,000th part of
grain of the otto of the rose, or the 15,-
000,000 th part of a grain of musk. It
tells in the morning that the bed-rooma
are impure, and catches the fragrance
of the morning air, conveys to us the
invitation of the flowers to go forth
into the fields and inhale their sweet
breath. To be led by the nose has
hitherto been used as a phrase of re
proach; but to a good nose, and to fol
low its guidauce, is ono of the safest
and shortest ways to the enjoyment of
health.— Good Health.
Awful Disclosuues.— The New York
Star is dealing in hard hints concern
ing'tho goings of the women who went
to Washington awhile ago, to pursuade
Congress to go for Female SufFerage.
We quote:
The prominence of notoriously lewd
people in this work; the fact that more
than one of the acknowledged leiders
openly disregard the marriage tie and
live a life of unblushing sham®, ara
turning all good people against the
whole scheme. The conduct of some
of the workers who for six weeks past
have been infesting the capitol is a li
bel upon deceucy. It is doubtless a
very convenient thing for members of
Congress to obtaiu illicit favors at so
cheap a price; but it is time that the
husbands of some of those advocates
and the wives of the members them
selves should be opened to the state of
thiDgs which now actually exists in
Washington. They ought to know
just what kind of influence is brought
to bear upon some of the “virtuous”
representatives who can thus easily
give their support to woman sufFerage
without committing themselves finally,
or to the country, to its adoption.—
This folly is not to be witnessed by
this generation, we trust. At all events
it will not make headway until it rids
itself of the notoriously unvirtuous
women who are now its acknowledged
leaders.
The capitol of Tennessee can boast
a Ruskin as well as beautiful women
and eloquent lawyers. In the pro
ceedings of the County Court w® read:
Squire Ruskin..introduced the follow
ing resolution: Resolved, That the
portrait now placed over the chair of
the Judge of this Court, and purport
ing to be a likeness of th® father of
our country, General Georg® Wash
ington, but which looks more like the
jack of clubs, be removed from this
hall, and the Court House Committee
be authorized to have a true likeness
of the pure patriot, George Washing
ton, put it iu its place. The resolution
was adopted.
Things to Come.— We cannot exact
ly understand how. a. woman in
trance can prophecy, yet one is report- -
to have made the following-predictions
while under the spell, in Lonisvill®,
Ky., last week. She predicted a wet
Spring, a hot, dry summer, and a
dreadful epidemic of some new and fa
tal sickuess, which will inevitably car
ry off all attacted, and cause the peo
ple to fall like autumn leaves before its
dreadful walk. All attacted will die
inevitably, and in a few hours. There
is to b® ftnoth®r European war in
1872, to which the recent couflict® will
be a mere circumstance. Nothing *o
dreadful as this war has ever boon
known on earth.
A clever repartee is attributed to the*
member from Mormondo in the new
Congress. A brother member asked
him how many wives he had. ‘Enough
to keep me from running after other
peoples,’ he promptly replied. Com
ing upon the heels of the Bowen scan
dal, that was rather neat.
A Paris letter says; “The ac
counts given me of the effects of the
bombardment are very curious. A la
day who residei in the centre of Paris,
not far from the i'uilleries, tells me
that for 60 hours, night and day, the
whole air wus full of thunder, and
clouds of smoke and the lightning of
cannon were all around the horizon.—
Every window was ratling; every vase,
cup, dacing on the tables. The roar
was perpetual, They could reckon the
distance of artillery by timing flash
and report; shells came screaming
through the air, bursting near with
dull explosions, and the w hole din and
tremor so affected the nervous system.*
that when it ceased at last her whole
body felt like a limb “asleep.” She
eoakl scarcely feel herself to exists

Qo.lL . Indications.— We have seen
some beautiful samples of Shale, from
Walker county six miles East of La
Fayette. The vein is seven feet thick,
and the indications are that there is
ooal in abundance near. This bed is
near the lino o? the contemplated rail
road from Borne to Chattanooga. The
samples were exhibited by Mr. David
Smith, who is now testing the bed.—
It is on the laud of Hugh McClure.
