their sufferings may not only be relieved, but
that they may be restored to health & strength.

Pain Kill It.
This is the celebrated medicine that run Terry
Davis’ Pain Killer out of the market, wherever
it was sold. Davis made Prophitt change the
name from Pain Killer to PAIN KILL IT.
For Rheumatism, Neuralgia, or pain of any
kind it has no equal.
For Cuts, Bruises, Burns, or old Sores, it is the
best thing yon can use as a dressing.
For Snake Bites or Stings of Poisonous Insects,
it is a perfect ANTIDOTE.
It is good for Colic, Colds, Coughs, or Bowel
Complaints. Its name indicates its nature fully.
It is truly DEATH, to pain.

CONSUMPTION,
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 the neglect of know* and indisputably
proven means of cure. Those near and dear to
family and friends are sleeping the dreamless
slumber into which, had they calmly adopted
DR, JOSEPH H. SCHENCK’S SEMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schenck has m his own case proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vital
ity, by his medicines and his directions for
their use, is quickened into healthful vigor.
In this statement there is noth
tuons. 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
requires no argument. It is self-assuring, self
convincing.
The Seaweed Tonic and 31andrake 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
condition the bronchial tubes “ sympathize”
with the stomach. They respond to the morbific
action of the liver. Here then comes the cul
minating result, and the setting in, with all its
distressing symptoms, of
CONSU3IPTION.
The 3landrake Tills are esmposed 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 iu tho bowels and
in the alimentary canal ai - e 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
1 as t,
A SUBTLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food.
is now progressing without its
previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless,
and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no
more flatulence, no exacerbation of the stomach
An appetite sets iu.
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.
Nafure 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, hut it must he prevented OV
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 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 much
aud as fast as the strength will hear, to get up a
good circulation of blood. The patients must
keep in good spirits—he 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 I 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 feci 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 mutter 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. I soon gained my strength,
and have grown in fiesh 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 for vears I have
“ ENJOYED GOOD* HEALTH.”
Dr. Schenck has discontinued his professional
visit to New York and Boston. He or his son,
Dr. J H. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see
patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street,
Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. in., to 8
p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination
with the Respirometer will he charged five
dollars. The llespirometer declares the exact
condition of the lungs, aud 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 directors, and kind nature will do
the rest, excepting that in some case's the Man
drake Pills are to he taken in in< reused, 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
symptom. When it comes, as it will 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 arc constantly kept
in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard
preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as {>
pronhylacteric 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. M an

Dishing up the War Sffiorrors,
Herr Von V ickede, the pleasant
Teuton chronicler of the doings of his
countrymen, narrates horrors piled up
on ghastly horrors on the road from
Belfort to Pontarlier, and among them
seeing a “bevy of famished women
throw themselves upon a dead horse
like a pack of wolves, and, tearing it
with all sorts of instruments, swaliow
morsels quite raw.” He also mentions
canibalism, but not vouch for
that. But ho concludes as follow; “This
is the eighth campaign I Lave been
through, but neither in Algeria, nor in
Italy, nor in Bohemia, nor even Schles
wig, have I seen sights so horrible.”—
The war correspondents of the London
papers have all come homo, and they
are ail hard at work preparing books
in which they mean to recoup them
selves for the long reticence which was
forced upon them by their late Prus
sian hosts. One of them, an officer iu
her majesty’s service, says that the hor
rors he saw and wrote of had all dis
appeared from his letters when pub
lished in the paper sent to. He vouch
es for haviug seen thirty-live Franc-ti
reurs stripped naked by their Prussian
captors and laid upon their faces in the
snow. Sentries were placed over
them, with orders to shoot them if they
stirred. This went on for a whole
night, and in the morning they w T ero
all turned over, when threo were found
to show signs of life. This terrible
drama was then finished by the Prus
sian sentinels deliberately passing
their bayonets through the bodies.
Ben and tlic Bug;gi»t§.
The rage of Wade is fearful to be
hold. He has turned himself into a
volcano of profanity. He asserts that
Grant has sent him down here with a
pack of damned fools, who, now that
their work is done, want to sport around
the West India Islands, and scoop up
all the snakes and hazards. He swears
and sweats, and sweats and swears in
the hot sun until one could almost im
agine that his great sole was just rea
dy to jump out of his body. The fact
is, Ben wants to go home. His work
is done, and he don’t want to loaf
around any longer. He objects to be
ing the figure-head of a gang of crazy
buggists, who are incessantly talking
about scarabeei, umbelliferous and le
guminous orders, aracuidse, copropha
gi, anthropomorphic, phytelephasiha
crocarpa, lucertina, thorictes, and oth
er “damned nonsense,” as Ben calls it.
The other day one of the buggists came
on board with a fat spider strung to a
stick.
‘What in the name of heaven is that?’
asked Ben, as the kicking spider was
passing him.
‘That, Mr. Wade,’ said the happy
buggist, holding up the spider, ‘is a
beautiful specimen of the tarantulated
lycosa tarantulae. It’s the finest speci
men I ever saw.’
The Old War Horse gazed at it one
moment, and then growled out, ‘The
hell it is. Take it away.’
Soon afterward another buggist came
on board with a three-tailed fish, and
told Ben that it was the most complete
specimen of the homocersal and hete
rocersal platessa fleuses that he had
ever found. A more disgusted man
than Mr. Wade was when he received
his information has rarely been seen.
I am told that Ben has said that he ex
pects next to meet a buggist with a
six-toed negro, or a Carib with a doub
le row of ears all round Lis head,

Upon the venire of jurors for service
in this court are several quite respect
ablo colored men, and the business usu
ally goes on as it did before the war.
This morning, when a case was about
to be put on trial, a tall, slender Cau
casian rose and said:
“Judge—l won’t serve as a juror.”
Judgo Ludlow— “What. did you
say?”
Caucasian—“l won’t serve on the
jury.”
Judge Ludlow*—“Sir, I fine you S2OO,
aud order you into custody until the
fine is paid.”
Caucasian—“Very good:' get your
money if you can."
Judge Ludlow'—“l direct an officer
to take this man.”
Caucasian—“ All right; let me rot in
jTrison.”
Judge Ludlow—“ See here, sir; what
does this moan ? You appear to be a
respectable man, and I am loth to pun
ish a juror, but you must collect your
senses, behave yourself like a man, aud
know that you are in a court of justice,
where such indignity cannot be toler
ated. Explain your conduct.”
Caucasian —“Well, the truth of the
matter, Judge, is that I will not sit
upon a jury with a negro.”
Judge Ludlow —“That will not do,
sir. No matter what men’s piivate
opinions upon the subject may be, it is
now a part of the law of the land that
colored citizens shall also serve as ju
rors, and as a magistrate of the law I
am determined to enforce it, without
consulting my own or any other per
son’s individual sentiment respecting
it. The presence of colored jurors is
no legal ground for your exemption,
and I shall have to require you to
serve.”
Caucasian—“l won’t do it.”
Judge Ludlow—“i hen, sir, you must
pay the fine of $200; and remain in
custody until it is paid; ; and every time
you refuse to serve on such a ground
us this one I will impose a like fine of
$200.”
The Caucasian remained resolute,
and was escorted off by an officer.

If there are white men enough in

This was originally a white man’s gov
ernment. Had mixed juries been pro
posed at the time of the adoption of
the Constitution, the proposition would
have been spurned by nine-tenths, ii

Dr. Boynton says:
“If we bury a thermometer fifty fi>et
below the surface of the earth, the mer
' cury will remain at the same point the
1 year round, in winter and in summer,
showing that the influence of the fair,

er I lie mercury will rise one degree,
and will rise in the same ratio for eve
ry fifty feet we go down. It can be ea
sily calculated at what depth all known
substances will molt. This would not
exceed fifty miles. It will thus be seen
that the crust—or solid part —of the
earth is exceedingly thin, in propor-
tion to the diameter; not so thick ns
an egg-shell, in proportion to the size
of the egg. With a crust, so thin, con
et antly cooling, and producing a pres
sure upon the internal masses, it,is pot
strange that the bed of oceans should
be elevated in a single day, and whole
cities have been sunk iu the same space
of time. The sides of a volcanic moun
tain once broke away, and the livid
masses flowed out, forming a rWcr
twelve miles wide, which, in its course,
melted do.wo six hills GOO feet deep,
aud spreading over a siufaco of 1,100
