Cartersville, Jan. 20th, ’7l-ly. “Onward and UmoardP CON HU 31 P I ION , ll* Uiircttnd Its Preventive BY J. H. SOHMCK, M. D. MANY a human l*eing has passed away. for whose death there was no other reason than the neglect of known and indisputably proven means of cure. Those near and dear to family and friends are sleeping the dreamless -lumber into which, had they calmly adopted I»It. JOSEPH H. HCHKNCU. fi SIMPLE TREATMENT. and availed themselves of his wonderful effica cious medicines, they would not; have fallen. Dr. Sdsenek has in 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 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 in failing. Its philosophv requires no argument. It is self-assuring, self convincing. The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the first itwo weapons with which the citadel of the malady Is assailed. Two-thirds of the eases of consumption originate in dvsimpsia and a functionally disdrdefed livei. XVith this condition the bronchial tubes “sympathize” with the stomach. Thcv respond to the morbific actiou of the liver, ifere then comes the cul minating result, and the settiug in, with all its distressing symptoms, of CONSUMPTION. The Mandrake Pills are csiiroosed of one of Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podoiihillnm Pelta tnm. They possess all the blood-sen reiving, alterative properties of calomel. But unlike calomel, they “LKAVK 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 clock, is wound up. It arouses from its torpidity. The stomach acts responsivelv, and the patient begins to feel that lie is getting, at last, A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. The seaweed Tonic, In conjunction with the Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food. <'hylitlcation is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to he at hand. There is no more flatulence, no exacerbation of the stomach An appetite sets in. Novy 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 tli** manhood or th« woman hood that was GIVEN UP AS LOST. Tlic second tiling is. the patients must stay in a warm room until they get well; it is almost impossible to prevent taking cold when the lungs arc diseased, hut it must he prevented or a'cure cannot he effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this section of the ceuntry in the winter season, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that course lose patients, if their lnngs 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 good circulation of blood. The patients must keep in good spirits—be determined to get well. This has a great deal to do w ith the appetite, and is the freat point to gain. To despair of cure alter 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 oarations which I now offer to the public, and mo that I could feel them penetrate iny' VvTiofe 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, 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 fle-li ever since.”" ”1 was weighed shortly after my recovery,” added the Doctor, “then looking !ike a mere skeleton; mV weight was only ninety-seven pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and twentv-flve pounds, and for rears I have “ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.” Dr. Schenek has discontinued his professional visit to New York and Boston. He or his son, Dr. .J 11. Sehenck. Jr., still continue to see patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street, l’hiludelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. m., to 3 p. ni. Those who wish a thorough examination with the Respirometer will he charged five dollars. The Respirometer declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readily learn whether they are curable or not. Ths* directions for taking the medicine are adapted to the intelligence even of a child Follow these dirccfcnns, and kind nature will do the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man drake l’ilis are to he 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 symptom.. XX’hen it comes, as it will come, let the despair ing 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 Fills are a standard preparation; while the Fulmonic Syrup, as a eurer of roughs and colds, may be regarded as a praphyliicteric against consumption in any of Its forms. Price of the Pulmonic Syrup and Seaweed Tonir, $1.50 a bottle, or $7.50 a half dozen. Man drake Pills, 25 cents a box. For sale by all druggists and dealer*. JOHN F.

CARTERSVII LE, GA. feb. 7, 1871.w1y VniHi Came of 31} Jcaloih)- It whb a misty, yet sweet, Keptem- Ix r nigh*. I can see the sky as it i hung over onr cottage home, starry bine with hejte and there a patch of white, tloatiiig gossamer; and the har vest-moon coming np and fl«>oding all the world with golden splendor. I re member how the triirson roses hung apove the door-way, heavy with their own sweetness; and what suggestive odors floated from the flower beds in the dim, old garden. I can even re member the dr-ws I wore—pure white, ■because that was the dress in which my husband loved me Ixist. Del he love me at all ? Or was it my yellow gold that won him ? Immediately after our marriage we went to Europe, where we rambled about for a year or two, wintering in Rome and spending our summers among the Alps. Then wo returned home. But the nomadic spirit was upon us, and we took wbat our own country afforded in the way of gipsy life. In the midst of this wandering, in a little country town amid the lakes, my first trouble came. On the second day of our sojourn at this place, to which we had come in accordance with mv husbands wish, I missed him. He was fishing for trout, one of onr party suggested, and in the afternoon we strolled down towards the stream. — Passing a small cottage we heard voi ces, and something familiar made me glance that way. There they stood, side by side, mv husband and a wo man—a young lady, with glossy raven hair! I passed on in silence; but that nierht, when my husband returned and sought, me, T was reserved end cold. I refused to dance, and would not ring for him. He followed me from place to place, his eyes full of grave solicitude. The instant we were in our own room be caught my hand in his. ‘My darling,’ he said, ‘what troubles you ?’ ‘For my life I cannot tell him. I was afraid to let him know that I doubted his integrity. ‘Horace,’ I questioned, timidly, ‘do you love me ?’ His fine eyes opened wide with as tonishment. But be answered passion ately. ‘Love you?’ Ay, better than you will ever know, Violet.’ ‘Did you—have you ever loved any one else ?’ I faltered. ‘Never. Violet, on my honor.’ I was happy, yet not entirely satis fied. I was a woman. Eve ate the for fruit, with Paradise all around her. ‘Then who was it;’ I faltered, ‘that woman I saw you with this afternoon ?’ He started, and flushed very red for a moment, then he laughed. ‘Oh!’ he said, ‘jealous, are you ? Then lam sure you love me. But, se riously, dear, I ought to have appolo gized for my long abscence. That wo man was a friendj* and old friend of mine—she’s in distress, and I had to help her. Are you satisfied ?’ I nodded ray head in assent, yet my heart was not quite at rest. After that we went down to our little sea home, and set; led into sober, married life; and for months our bliss was per fect; and then that dreadful night came! Horace had been gone all day. He did not come home to dinner, as was his custom; so, after having ordered tea, I dressed myself, and sat down on the rose-shaded porch to await him.— Sunset, dusk, evening; the moon soar ing up above the sen. Still he did not come. Dinner and supper had both spoiled; the flowers in my hair were fading, and I was sick and weary with waiting and susj>ense. Horace had never remained away so long since onr marriage. What could detain him so? Very slowly the night went by. Twelve o’clock came, the moon dropped out of sight, leaving me in darkness. An owl hooted from the top of the old wil low, surf beat with a weary, sobbing sound. I worked myself up into a perfect tremor of alarm and nervous excite ment, and, by degrees, the old doubt, or fear, or whatever it was, stole back to my mind. My husband was cruel to keep me in such suspense. He did love me! It never occurred to me that he might be detained against his will. When, at last, the clock was on the stroke of three, I caught the quick tramp of his herse’sdeeL But it did not greatly relieve me. I felt angry, and instead of running down to meet him, as a woman's n. til re prompted me, I yielded to my petted, wayward will, and kept my seat. He did not stop to take down the bars, but cleared them with a leap. When he reached the porch, he sprung down, flushed and eager. ‘Violet,’ he cried, the moment he caught sight of me, ‘are you up yet ? I am sorry.’ He approached, both bands exten ded. But I turned from him, and walked to the other end of tire porch. He stood for a moment in silent as tonishment, then followed, and took my hand, though I kept my face per sistently averted. ‘Violet,’ he said, what is it ? Are you ill, tired ? I wiis so sorry to keep you waiting, but circumstancs—' ‘Never mind the circumstances now !’ I exclaimed, pettishly. ‘I am very tired, and now that I know T that you are safe, I will go to bed.’ He loosened his hold on my hand, but looked after me, as I left him. with a glance I shall never forget. I can see him now, ns he stood in the moonlight, so handsome and noble; i and I loved him so well! I wonder | whv I turned from him that night.— ! G«*l knows how it pa ; ned me. But !

Then you understand how it. was that I left ray husband standing there, wenrv and snpperles 8 - ‘Violet, dear,’ he softly, «« I paused iuvolnntnrly ft t the head of the stairs, ‘comeback an'! Irt me explain;! yon know I have not kept you waiting willingly.’ But I went ou wi'bont a word, not to our chandler, but to a little dress ing room exclusively my own. and clos- j ed and locked the door. I !im Bm *e 1 the evil one must have had control of j me that night. In a little "’bile lit came up stairs and tried the °f my door; then he called my na llle soft ly; but I did not answer, aud he went away. A dozen times that night I lifted my throbbing head from my tear-wet pil low to go to him and implore his for giveness, but. pride kept me back.— Thus I lay sleepless till morning- It was a wild morning, too, with drifting rain and sobbing winds, and the **«* thundered on the strand. My husband was in the breakfast room when I went dowu. He turned, and said kindlv: “Good morning, dear. Are you quite well ?” “Quite well, thank you,” I respond ed, crossing to a window on the oppo site side of the room. He arose, and I then hoped he was coming to my side, but he only looked at his watch, and said: “Be kind enough to let m° have my breakfast at once, Violet, if you can. I am in a burry for I have important matters to look after.” I rang the bell at once, and placed myself at the head of the table. When the cheerless repast was over, and my husband rose to go, I felt hot tears blinding me. I could not let him leave me in anger. I made a step to ward him, when he spoke, and his words roused all my old anger and dis content. “Viole t,” said he, ‘*l may not be here to dinner. Don’t wait forme; it is im possible ” “Make no excuses, sir,” I replied, “none nre needed.” Ah! those sad, reproachful eyes!— But his lips uttered no retort He on ly said. “Good-bye, dear,” and then went out. I watched him from the window, hidden behind a curtain, as he rode away through the driving rain. The memory of that day comes back to me like a terrible dream! To ward even id g mv ng°ny became unen durable; and as the raiu poured in tor rents, I determined to drive over to mv husband’s office in the neighboring village. About half way, we met a covered carriage, c6ntaining a lady and gentleman. “Why, that’s Mr. Reade !” said my driver ns the vehicle passed by us. One glance confirmed his words. It was mv husband, and by his side was the same woman that I had seen with him, once before. My resolution was taken on the instant. I ordered mv servant to drive back to Swan s Nest. I would not wait mv husbands return, I said to myself. I could not even charge him with infidelity. 1 would go away at once, and never let him see my face again. In a short time I was ready for my departure. I wrote a note to Horace, telling him that, our marriage was an nnwise one, and that I should be hap pier with my own friends. I begged him not to hunt me down as a fugu tive. but to leave me to the bent of my inclination. I put the note upon his table, and then went out from the 'home where my life had been so hap py. In less than a week, nay father and I were on onr way to Europe. At the expiration of t.wo wretched years we returned; and I learned from onr lawyer that my hnsband had sail ed for China, first making ovox to me. in fee simple, alt’his real estate. He never, so the lawyer said, expected to return I went back to Swan’s Nest. Everything was unchanged The rooias were jnst ns I had left them. — My husband would not let them be touched, the housekeeper said. “Had she ever heard from him?” I asked.— “On!v once,” she replied, “and then the letter contained another; it was in my dressing fcr.ble.”' I went for it myself, and rend it, sitting there in our old room. “Violet,” it began, "yo« matt par don this intrusion. It will be the last; for, in all human probability, the dis ease that now consumes me will soon give me a grave in a foreign land.— But there are a-few things I wish to say before I die. I was wrong not to explain all to you from the first. But I desired to snare you what yon might consider a disgrace. I thonght you could and woukirtvHst me. It was my sister you saw. She was vain and frrvolws, and eloped with a profligate. The marriage was illegal, and Ethel was disgraced. She on me to me for help. I could not refn e her. I was taking her.to a safe asylum that night when I was absent* You under tand it all now. Don’t be troubled, dear: but forget me and be happy. Mv sis ter is dead now, and I have not, I fear long to live. God bless yon, dear!— In heaven all these wrongs will fce righted.” S. If. Smith S' Co s., Proprietor ,v. For wvo years I lited nlone nf Swan’s Nest—two years of inexpressible ago ny; then the news cm me ! A steamer, homeward bound from Calcutta, was lost, and Horace Reade was one of the passengers. That was the death of hope! Another year dragged by. One sweet May evening I strolled down to the seashore. The sun was setting in waves of gold and purple, and q full moon came up, flooding the great se*', and the long stretch of glittering sand with misty splendor. The tide rolled in with a low, musical murmur. I sat down on a rock. 1 ar qnt upon (he bar, a stately ves sel swung at anchor, and a little boat from it was coining in. I watched the tiny craft, with a kind of fascination. Presently it grated ou the sand, aud a man sprang ashore. A wild, nameless hope took shape in my heart. I arose and tottered for ward, blind and half-unconscious. The instant after a strong arm clasped me. I looked np into the face above m°. It was wan and worn, and changed by suffering, but I knew it on the instant. “Oh, Horace !my husband ! For give me.” I crir-d. Then I felt his tears npon my cheek, and his kisses on mv lips. The happy world, drowned in the splendor ol the spring sunset, faded out, and I sunk into his arms insensible. It is all over—the remorse the lone liness, the aching pain! Wo live at Swan’s Nest—mv dear, forgiving hus band and myself. [ From Peienorin Magazine. The Influence of Pretty Women. Life becomes more harmonious, it beats with a keener pulse of enjoyment, in the presence of pretty women. Af ter all, a chivrming little figure, a piq uet little face, is the best remedy for half the ills in existence, its worries, its vexations, its dullness, its disap pointments. And even in the larger and more placid types of beauty, in the beauty of a Lucy Dumbello, it there is a tinge of stupidity, there is, at any rate, an atmosphere of repose, a genial influence moulding our social converse and habits into gentler shapes. It is aronsing to see how the pretti ness of wom-'n tells on her dress, bow the order and propriety of her dress tells od the home. The pursuit of beauty, the habit of prettiness, give an ideal dignity to the very arrangement of her bonnet strings. In every move ment, in thevery sweep of her ample folds, in the pose of her languor, in the gay start of her excitement, on a feels the softening, harmonizing influ ence of her last look in the glass. Slie may be gay or sorrowful, quiet or en ergetic, but she must be pretty.— Beauty exercises an imperceptible compulsion over her, which moulds her whole life into graceful and har monious forms. Her dress rises out of the mere clothing of man into the regions of science, of poetry, of art A thousand considerations of taste, harmonies to color, contrasts, corres pondencies, delicate adjustments of light and shade, dictate the choice of a shawl or the tint of a glove. And as prettiness tells on dress, it tells on the home., Flowerg, pictures,, the gay notes of n sonata, the cosiest ccmehes. gorgeous hues of Indian tap estry, glass-work of Murano, ft hun dred exquisite somethings and noth ings, are the natural setting of pretty women. The art of the baudoir tells on all but the chaos of the husband’s s*udy. Around tbajfc last refuge of batbaiism floats an atmosphere of taste and refinement in which the pretty wife lives and moves and has her being. And from this tone of the home grows the tone of society, the social laws of good humor, or proprie ty, of self-restraint, of consideration for others, of vivacity.— The very hush of the rough tones that have thundered over Peloponeso as Pericles bends over Aspasia, the littls turns an delicacies of phrase, the joyous serfdoms and idleness of the manliest and most energetic of men, tells of the triumph of pretty women. Narrow Guage. The American Railway Times syys A civil engineer in Texas advocates the construction of narrow-gunge rail ways with as adapted to thinly populated districts in Toxas, where traffic is light and it is utterly impossible to get money to construct ordinary roads. Charters have been obtained for two such roads, and they are likely to be built soon. A railroad thirty inches wide and eleven miles long, is to be built in Green county, Tenn., at a cost of $20,000. The rails are of wood, and nre to be shipped with iron. This is getting the cost of railways down to a pretty low figure. As the construction of these narrow gunge lines has got to be accepted as a “ fixed fact” in all the States, it would be well for the different Leg is in hires to pass laws desigi ajng the width, so that the narrow-gunge svs em shall be identical throughout.. The Railway Committee of the Massachu setts Legislature has recommended a guage of three feet, and .doubt this will receive the legislative sanction. It is to bo hojied that other States conform with this movement, ihe best engineering authorities in this country and in Europe are in fa%or of three feet for the narrow guage rail way system.
