THOMAS. Charlotte, N. C.. Sept. 24.1808. I have used Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi cine as a tonic, and found it to be powerful and efficacious.

SCHENCK, M, D, Yf AXY a human beitig has passed array aVll for whose death there was u,> other rea-ion than the neglect known and indi-pntablv proven means of cure. Those near and dear tit family and friends are sleeping the dreamless slumber into which, had they calmly adopted DR. JOSEPH H. SGIENCK’S SIMPLE TREATM EXT. and availed themselves of his wonderful effica cious medicines, they would nut have fallen. ' Dr. Sehenek basin liis <»wn ease proved that wheruver sufficient vitidiry remains, that vital ity, by bis medicines and his directions for their use, is quickened into healthful vigor In this statement there is nothing pres 1 inp 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. Sehenek's medicines is as simple as it is m failing. fts philosophy requires no argument It is self-assuring setf convineing. 0 Tbc (Seaweed Tonic aij(j Mandrake Pills are the first two weapons with wliieli the citadel ot the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the cases of consumption originate in dvspcpci-i and a functionally disordered livei. With this condition the bronchial tubes “sympathize” with the stomach. They respond to the morbific action ot the liver. Here then conies the cul minating result, and the setting in, with a l its distressing symptoms, of CONSUMPTION. The Mandrake Pills are esmposed of one of Nature s noblest gifts—the Podophillum Pella tuni. They possess all the hlocHl-searchinir alterative properties of calomel. But unlike calomel, they “LEAVE NO STIXG BEHIND,” The work of core 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 responsively, and last patlUUt I,csins to feel that he is getting, at A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. r»T,* ie Tonic, in conjunction with the I ills, ucrnieates and assimilates with the food. Lliylideation is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is no more flatulence, 110 exacerbation of the stomach An appetite sets in. No\y comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet given hv an indulgent father to suffering man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup comes in to perform its functions aud to hasten and ram plete the cure. It enters at once upon its \\ ork. 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 rotteu throne that it occupied is renovated and made uew, and tho patient, in all the dignity of regained vigor, steps forth to enjoy thewmanhood or the woman hood that was GIVEN UP AS LOST. The 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 are diseased, but it must be prevented or a cure cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this section of the ceuntrv iu 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 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 lias 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 uiiVYWVRK mirations 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 niv whole system. They soon ripened the matter in my lungs, and 1 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, fevci, pain and night sweats all began to leave 111 c, and my appetite became so great that it was with difficulty that I could keep from eating too much. I soon gained mv strength, and have grown in flesh ever since.”' “I was weighed shortly after mv recovery ,” added the Doctor, “theii lookiug'likc a mere skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and twenty-live pounds, and for vears r have “ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.” Dr. Sehenek has discontinued his professional visit to New York and Boston. He or his son, Dr. J 11. Sehenek, .Jr., still continue to see patients at their office, No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. ni., to 3 p. 111. Those who yvisli a thorough examination yy-ith the Respirometer will be charged live dollars. The Kespiromcter declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readily learn whether they are curable or not. Tho directions for taking the medicine are adapted to the intelligence even of a child Follow these dircctons, and kind nature will do the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man drake Pills 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. When it comes, as it will come, let the despairing ho 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 Rills are a standard preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a curcr of Coughs and colds, may he regarded 113 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 by all druggists and dealers. JOHN F.

The world with its alluring charms, Off lead our minds astray, Front thoughts that soon our human forms, Must sink beneath the pelting storms, And pass from earth away. We lay our plans, but ah ! how vain ; We are not sure to-day, That 'ere to-morrow's sun may set, The King of Terrors we had met, Aud thus had gone away. Though we have all the world can give To mnke a grand display, "Twill not suffice to hold us here, However much we shrink with fear, For we must pass away. Though loved ones clasp us in their arms, And fain would bid 11s stay, We cannot heed their bitter cries, Nor dry the tears from oft' their eyes, When called to pass away. And yet how strange the human mind, Will turn in sad dismay, From thoughts that we poor morals must Return our bodies to the dust, And pass from earth away. Oh ! then, whatever God designs, For us while here we stay, Let us in all things be resigned, 80 that our souls in Heaven may find, A home when called away. * NINE \ EARS OLI). I’m uiue years old to-day, Almost grown up, you see; And I know enough to tell That nine is three times three. And what are three times seven ? ~ If you cau’t tell I can; It meaus six feet and freedom, Aud every inch a man. I think I know my trrbles Very perfect, for a boy; But learning them, be certain, Was not a special joy. However, that’s all over, And I’m just three times three; Nearly as tall as mother— Almost grown up you see. This morning father said That years don’t make the man— That nothing but the heart and mind Makes , f"' oypv o.iii mo three times seven, And I will risk the rest; Though mother says that of one’s life The boyhood is the best. I’m nine years old to-day— Almost grown up, you see; And, whatever may be lacking, There’s no baby about me, I mean to study hard, And learn everything I can; To that when I’m three times seven I’ll be every inch a man.

A baby is a spriug day in winter, and, if it is heal thy aud good uatured, and yo re sure it’s yours, it is a bushel of sunshine, no matter how cold the weather. A man c mnot be hopeless as long us he loves babies one at a time. We love babies, no matter how dirty they are. Babies are Dorn to be dirty. We love babies because tiiey are ba bies, aud because their mothers were lovable and lovely women. Our lo\o lor bab.t s is only bounded by the mau ler of babies m the world. We al ways look for babies; we do. We al ways Lave sorrowful feelings for moth eis that have no babies and don’t ex pect any. Women always look down-hearted who have 110 babies, and men who have no babies always gamble, and drink whisky, and slay out at night trying to get music iu their sculs; but they cau’i come it. Babies are babies, uuu nothing can take their places.— Pianos play out aud good uving plays out, and beauty plays out, uuiess there’s a baby iu the house. We’ve tried it; we kuow aud we say there’s nothing like a b .by. Babies are a prolific sub ject, aud we intend to talk more about the babies in the future. [Chicago Tribune. Great Tfiis!alee*. It is a great mistake to set up our own standard of right an wrong, and judge people accordingly. It is a great mistake to measure the enjoyments of others by our own; to expect uniform ity of opinion in this world; to look for judgement and experience in youth; to endeavor to mould all dispositions alike; not to yield iu material trifles; to look for perfection iu our own ac tions; to worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied; not to alleviate ail that needs alleviation, as far as lies in our power; to consider everything impossible which we cannot perform; to believe only what our fi nite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to understand everything. The greatest of all mistakes is to live only for a time, when any uiduient may L no info eternity. Thoughts.— ruo h«,o wonderful power over man. lienee it is that all that is great aud sublime iu his eyes is clothed in mystery. It is the instinctive feeling of this that leads the great to surround them selves with all the circumstances of pomp and splendor, to withdraw iuto the inner recesses of imposing aud pal atial residences, into a hidden sanctu ary. Take from them all mystery and they are no longer great. Never was man great in the eyes of his valet de chainbre. If each one knew, says Pasc 1, exact ly what his friends thinks of him, there would nut be four friends iu the world. In a word, in the present condition of man, the mysterious is necessary iu order to elicit aud sustain his love aud awe for an object. This explains why a religion without in) stenes would beau absurdity.” A Beautiful IhiiugM, A man without some sort of religion is at best a poor reprobate, the loot ball of destiny, with no tie linking him to infinity, and to the wondrous eter nity that is begun, but with a woman, it is even worse— a flame without heat, a rainbow without color, a flow er without perfume. A man may iu sojne sort tie his frail hopes and honors to this weak, shifting ground tackle, to his business, or the world, but a woman, without that anchor called faith, is adrift aud a wretch 1 A man may clumsily continue a sort of mor tal resposibility, out of relations to mankind; but a woman, in her com paratively isolated sphere, where affec tion and not purpose is the controlling motive, can tind no basis in any other system of light .action but that of spiritual faith. A man may bring his thoughts aud his brain in quietness, in such poor harborage as fame and rep utation may stretch before him; but a woman —where can she put her hopes iu storms if uot in Heaven ? And that sweet truthfulness—that abiding love—the enduring hope, mel lowing every page aud scene of life— lighting them with pleasant radiance; wheu the world s storms break like an army with smoking cannon—what can bestow it all but a holy tie to what is stronger than an army with smoking cannon? Who has enjoyed the love of a Christian mother, but will echo the thought with energy, and hallow it, with a tear ? A wealthy gentleman, who owus a country seat, nearly lost his wife, who fell into a river which flows through his tstate. He announced the narrow efccapj to his friends, ex pecting their congratulations. One of them, an old bachelor wrote us fol lows: “I always told you that river was too-shallow ” What ia that which, when brought to the tabL is cut, but never eaten ? A pack of cards. BOU Why is the letter “and” like the marriage service ? Because it makes “we” into “wed.” S. If. Smith A Ca ., Pro])riciurs. Tltius;* which Should he Heeded. Keep good company. Pay thv dues wilingly. Cast not off an old friend. Live merrily as thou canst. j Form is good, but not formality. Great events give scope for great virtue*. Caution is the lower story of pru dence. If thou come a guest stay not too long. Great receipts render us liable to great accounts. Good iuteutions never justify evil deeds. That civility is the best which ex cludes all superfluous formality. Bo meek, merciful, patient, and thankful. Greatnoss of mind is always com passionate. Great designs require great consid erations. Guilt is ever suspicious and always in fear. Prove all things; hold fast to that which is good.— Paul. Alger says: “God hands gifts to some, whispers them to others.” Let your lessons in the past be your lessons in the future. Dr. Johnson says: He who w r aits to do a great deal of good at once will never do nothing.” Rutherford says: “The chariot of God’s Providence ruuueth not upon broken wheels.” Alger says: “Those who have not suffered know not what thoy have to gain.” Socrates says; He is not only idle who does nothing,.but he is idle who might be better employed. Many a man dreads throwing away his life at once, who shrinks not from throwing it away by piece-meal. The mind has more room in it than most people think, if they would only, furnish the apartments. A thoroughly honest man will not lie, even to his dog, or any way betray the brute’s confidence. Dr.. Johnson says.*- “The chains of habit a» e generally too small to be felt till they are too strong to be broken.” Lavater says: He who lias not for given an enemy, has never tasted one most sublime eniovments of Luther said: I am more afraid of my own heart than of the Pope and all his cardinals. I have with me the great Pope, self. True faith makes the sinner humble, active and self-denying; false faith leaves men proud, indolent and selfish. Truth is not always won by long, hard toil. A moment’s insight is sometimes worth a life's experience. Every period of life has its peculiar prejudices. Whoever saw old age that did not applaud the past, and con demn the present times ? Rowland Hill was a shrewd observ er. He says: “I would give nothing for that man’s religion whose very dog aud cat are not the better for it. He who esteems trifles for them selves is a trifler; he who esteems them for conclusions to be drawn from them, of the advantages to which they can be put, is a philosopher. Grammar is learned from the lan guage more easily than language from grammar* criticisms from works of art more easily thau works of art from criticism. Wisdom cousisteth not in knowing many things, nor even in knowing them thoroughly; but iu choosing and in following what conduces most to our lasting happiness and true glory. Women are like horses—the gayer the harness they have ou the better they feel. An inclined plane —An ugly woman with the Grecian bend. An ass—he who assents to every thing. How to distinguish a wealthy man —Croesus in his face. It is a theological error to suppose that Adam lost anything by exchang ing tho Garden of Eden for the whole wide world. He “gained ground” by the operation. A French barber’s signboard reads thus: “To-morrow the public will be shaved gratuitously.” Os course it is always to-morrow. “Tom, why did you not marry Lucy r “Oli, she had a sort of hesitation in her speech, and I left her.” “A hesitation in her speech, Tom I I never heard that before.
