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 druggists and dealers. JOHN F.

Betsey and I are Out. 4 FARM BALLAD. Draw up the papers, lawyer, and make am good and stout; For things at home are erossways aud Bal sey and I are out. We who haYe woraod together SO long as man and wife Must pull in single harness the rc3t of our nat’ral life. “What is the matter?” say you ? I swan it’s hard to tell; Most of the years behind us we've passed by very well; I have no other womaa—she has no other man, Only we’ve lived together as long ae we ever can. So I have talked with Betsey, and Betsey has talked with me ; So we have agree together that we can’t never agree; Not that we've catched each other in any terrible crime; 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. S. 11. Smith <]' Cos., Proprietors. Be Led toy the Xo»e. 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 seemed to walk on air, and was in*, daubtt whether she was any longer iu.. her body. 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. [Courier.
