CONSUMI’TION,
Its Cure asid Its Preventive
BY J. H, SCHENCK, M. D,
MANY' a human being has passed away,
for whose death there was no other reason
than tlie neglect of known and indisputable'
proven means of cure. Those near and dear to
family and friends are sleeping the dreamless
slumber ijito which, had they calmly adopted
Dlt. JOSEPH 11. SCHEN'tK’S SIMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schenck has in hi- own case proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that Vital
ity, by his medicines aud his directions for
tlieir itse, is quickened into healthful vigor.
In this statement there is nothing presump
tuous. To the faith of the invalid is made no
representation that is not a thousand times
substantiated by living and visible works. The
theory of the cure by Dr. Schenck’s medicines
is as simple as it is’ ui failing. Its philosophy
requircs no.argument. It is self-assuring, sclt
convinbing.
The Seaweed Tonic and 3fandrake 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 functionally disordered livei. With this
cond’tion the bronchial tubes ‘sympathize”
with the stomach. They respond to the morbific
action of the liver. IlcrC then comes the cul
minating result, and the setting in, with all its
distressing symptoms, of
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Bills arc composed of one of
Nature’s noblest gifts—the BodophiUum Belta
tum. They possess all the blood-scarching,
alterative properties of calKtaael..
But unlike calomel, they
“LEAVE NO STING BEHIND,”
The work of cure is nqw beginning. The
vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels and
in tlie alimentary canal are ejected. Tlie liver,
like a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its
torpidity. The stomach acts responsively, and
the patient begins to feel that tie is getting, at
last,
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Bills, permeates and assimilates with the food.
Chvlilication is now progressing without its
previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless,
and tlie cure is seen to be at hand. There is no
more flatulence, no exacerbation of the stomach
An appetite sets in.
Now conies the greatest Blood Purifier ever
yet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup comes nto
perform its functions and to hasten and com
plcte the cure. It enters at once upon its work.
Nature cannyt he cheated. It collects and
ripens the impaired portions of the lungs. In
the form of gatherings, it prepares them for
expectoration, and lo T 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, hut it must he prevented or
a cure cannot he effected. Fresh air and riding
out, especially in this section of the country in
the winter season, are all wrong. Physic ass
who recommend that course lose patients, if
their lungs are badly diseased, and yet because
they are in the honse 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 . roust
eep in good'sfririt-s—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 - eases, and moral cer
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Schenek’s
personal Statement !.■ the Faculty of hjj own
cure was iu these modest words :
3fany years ago T was in the last stages of
consumption ; confined to pry I ltd, and at one
time my physicians thought that I could not
live a week; then, like a drowning man catch
ing nt straws, 1 heard of and obtained the pre
oarations which I now offer to the public, and
they made a perfect cure of me. It seciaeii to
nie that 1 could feel them penetrate my vvhojo
system. They soon ripened the matter in mv
lungs, and I would spit up more than k pi It of
offensive yellow matter every morning for a
longtime. >-
As soon as that began to subside my cough,
fevei, pain and night sweats all began to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that it
was with difficulty that I could keep from
eating too much, l soon gtihied my strength,
and have grown in flesh ever since.*'
“I was weighed shortly after ray recovery,”
added the Doctor, “then looking like a mere
skeleton; my weight was onjy nioety-serc..
pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and
tweutv-five pounds, and for year.- 1 have
“ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.”
Dr. Schenck has di.icontinnctl. his profess! .not

Dr. A 11. Schenck. Jr., still continue to see
patients at their office, No. 15 North Sixth street,

p. m. Those who w ish a thorough examination
with the ltespiremoter will be charged five
dollars. The- Respirometer declares the exact
condition of the lungs, ard petleatr can reiklny

The directions for taking the meuiciae arc
adapted to the intelligence even pf a child
Follow these divecton.-, and kind nat-me'Hvill do
tin; re-U. excepting that in some cases the Man
drake Pills are to be taken in inereaseAdoses ;
the Jhree medicines need no other accompani
ment* than the ample instmfctions that do
accompany them. First create appetite. Os
returning health hunger is tlie most welcome
symptom. "When it ooines, as it will come, let
the despairing he 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. * t
Dr. Schenck’s medicines are constantly kept
in tens of tlioiisands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Ylamlrakc Bills arc a standard
preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and folds, may lie regarded as a
prophvlaeteric agaiust 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

BY THE LATE SIR JAMES SIMPSON.
When I was a boj at school I saw a
j sight I never can forget—a man tied
| to a cart, and dragged, before the peo
ples eyes, throHgh the streets of ruy nn
tive town, his back tonrn and bleeding
from the lash. It was a shameful pun
ishment For many offences? No, for
one offence. Did any one of the towns
men offer to divide the lashes wit-14
him? No; he who commit ted the of
fence bore the penalty all alone. It
was the penalty of changing human
law, for it was the last instance of its
infliction.
When I was a student at the Univer
sity I saw another sight I can never
forget—a man brought out to die. His
arms were pinioned, his face was al
ready pale as'death— thousands of ea
ger eyes were on him as he came up
from the jail. Did any man ask to
die in his room ? Did any friend come
to loose the rope and say, “Put it
around my neck, I die instead ? No; he
underwent the sentence of the law.—
For many offences ? No; for oDe of
fence. He had stolen n money parcel
fiom a stage-coach He broke the
law at one point, and died for it. It
was the penalty of a changing human
law in fpis ease also; it was the last
instance of capital punishment being
inflicted for that offencu.
I saw anothe s’ght—it matters not
when—myself ajiinner standing cn the
’brink of ruin; deserving naught but
hell. For one sin? No; for in any,’
many sins commit!ed against the un
changing laws of God. But again I
looked, and saw Jesus, my substitute,
scourged in my stead, and dying on the
cro -s for me. I looked, and cried, and
was forgiven. Aud it seemed to me to
bu my duly to come here to tell you of
that Saviour, to s*ee if you will not alio
Look And Live.
“Bound upon tii" accursed tree,
Faint and bleeding, who is He?
By the eyes so pale and dim,
streaming blood and writhing limb,
By the flesh with scourges torn,
By the crown of twisted thorn,
By the side so deeply pierced,
By the b’nftled burning thirst,
By tlie drooping deatb-dew’d brow,
Son of Man ! ’tis Thou! ’tis Thou !
“Bound upon, tli’ accursed tree,
Dread and awful, who is He?
By the sun at noonday pale,
Shivering rocks nd rending veil,
By earth that trembles at his doom,
By yonder saints who bnrst their tomb;
By Eden, promised, ere lie died,
To 4hc felon at bis side,
Lord! our supplaint knees we bow;
Son of God ! ’tis Thou ! ’tis Th:u !”
And how simple it all becomes, when
God opens the eye! A friend who late
ly came from Paris told me of an Eng
lish groom there, a very careless old
man, who. during a severe ilness, had
been madp to feel that he was a sin
ner. He dared nbt die as he was.—
The clergyman for whom he sent got
tired of visiting him, having told him
nil he himself then knew of the way of
salvation. But on Sunday afternoon
the grooms daughter waited in the
vestry after Church, saying, ‘You must
come once more, sir; I cannot see my
father again without you ’ “I can
teil him nothing new,”,said the pre-sell
er; “but I may take tlie sermon I have
been preaching, and read it to him*”
The dying man lay a3 before, in an
guish,. Ibiul.ing of his sins, and whith
er they must carry him. “My friend, I
have come to read you the sermon I
have just preached: First I shall tell
you the text — *He was icounded for our
Iraujtfxe.moep Now I shall read.”—
“Hold!” sail the dying man; “Ihave
j. ' Need no more. He was wounded
forhiy transgressions.” Soon after he
died, rejoicing in Christ’s righteous
ness; . y# p

The following conversation between
J a well-known official and his friend
took pktCD le.iently in front of the
Custom House :
“Where have you been
“To Washington to see the President
for the purpose ot securing an ap
pointment to office.”
“Did you get the appointment? - ’
“I did.”
“Well, since you are an official, I
advise you to go and get anew stove
pipe hat, if you and your friends can’t
afford the expense, I will lend you fifty
cents to have the coruscations ironed
out of the shabby one you now sport.
It looks as though a Briton, a Hill, or
Horace Greeley had fallen oil it.”
“ No, I will not smooth away a
wrinkle ; I will wear it as it is, and
bequeath it to uiy heirs as a rich
legacy. It was the cause of my ap
pointment.”
“The cause of your appointment!
How so?”
“ Well, you see, when the President
saw me with his hat on, he mistook
me for a. relation, and immediately
gave me the position I ask for.”
“He thought you his relative on
account of your hat! How ?”
“Yes; he saw the “dent” in it.— Si. \

Fancies of a Starving Itlnn.
A Mr. Evurts, who got lost amid the
mountain.! of California, v. andera.i
about for many days, and was anally
discovered when nearly perishing from
want of food, had strange fancies
come over him towards the last of his
Wanderings, which are thus described:
He does not udmit that he was
deprived of bis soupd mind, but at the
same time fancied that ne had plenty
oi company; thought his right leg was
one man, his left another, his arms two j
others, and his stomach a fifth; thought j
they were good fellows, and wa - sorry
he could not give them all tiiey wanted
to eat. He was surprised that when
thistles were to be dug, fires made,
wood brought and moals cooked, that
they would not help L-im. Everything
he ale tasted good, except grass
hoppers. His stomach had not been
educated up to that point. He fre
quently ate raw fish, aud esteemed
them delicious; caught one snow bird
and had a rare meal; chained a toad for
two days, but without success. Iu his
dreams he used to cook some of the
most delicious meals he ever ate iu his
life.
A Talmudic Lcgcnd-l’hc Crea
tion of Woman.
A Prince once said to Itabbi
Gamaliel: “ Your God is a thief; he
surprised Adam in his sleep and stole
a rib from him.”
The Rabbi's daughter overheard the
speech and whispered a word or two in
her father’s ear, asking his permission
to answer this singular opinion herself.
He gave his consent.
The girl stepped forward, and
feigning terror and dismay, threw her
arms aloft in supplication and cried
out, “My liege, my liege! justice!
revenge!
“What happened ?” asked the Prince
“A wicked theft has taken place,”
she replied. “A robber has crept into
our house, carried away a silver goblet
and left a gold one in its stead.”
“What am upright thief !” exclaimed
the prince. “Would that such robberies
were of more frequent occurrence !”
“Behold, then, sir, the kind of thief
that our Creatof was; he stole a rib
from Adam, and gave a beautiful wife
instead.”
“Well said!”avowed the Prince.

A Competent Witness.
“William! Look! Tell us William,
who made you?” William, who was
considered a fool, screwed up his face,
and looked thoughtful and somewhat
bewildered. “Moses, I s’pose!”
“That will do,” said Counsellor Gray,
addressing the court, “the witness says
he supposes Moses made him; that is
an intelligent answer, it shows that he
has some faint idea of Scripture. 1
submit that it is not sufficient to enti
tle him to be sworn as a witness capa
ble; of giving evidence.”
“Miv Judge.” said the fool, “may I
ax the lawyer a question ?”
“Certainly, ’ said the Judge.
“Well, then, Mr. Lawyer, who d’ye
s’pose made you ?”
“Aaron, I s’pose,” said Counsellor
Gray, imitating the witness.
After the mirth had somewhat sub
sided,, tbo witness drawled out, “Wall,
ne-ow, we do read in the book that
Aaron once made a calf, but who’d a
thought the darned critter had got in
here!’’
The Judge ordered the man to be
sworn.

Old Age" without
Alas ! for him who grows old with

glory world sets not open her gates
when he is excluded by the present.
The Lord deals so graciously with us
iu the decline of life that it is a shame
to turn a deaf ear to the lessons which
he gives. The eye becomes dim,« the
ear dull, the tougue falters, the feet
totter, all the senses refuse to do their
office, and from every side resounds
the call, “ Set thine house in order, for
the term of thy pilgramage is at baud.’

laborers of manhood, die away and

Curious Things to Know’. —Bes’des
the ice 1 slighter than water,
there is ii curious thing about it which
l ersor s do not know, perhaps, name
ly, its purity, A lump of ice melted
will always become pure distilled
water. When the early navigators of
the Arctic seas got out of tho water
they melted fragments of those vast
mountains of ice called icebergs, and
were astonished to find that they yield
ed only fresh water. They thought
that they were frozen salt water, not
knowing that they were formed on tho
land, and in some way launched into
the sea. But if they had been right
the result would have been all the
same. The fact is, the wator, in freez
ing, turns out of it all that is not wa-*
ter, salt, air, coloring matter, and all
impurities. Frozen sea water makes
fresh water ice. If you freeae a basin
of indigo water it will make it as pure
as that made of pure rain watfer.—
When the cold is very sudden these
foreign matters have no time to es
cape, either by rising or sinkiug, and
are thus entangled with the ice, but do
not form any part of it.
