Sir: My wife has been an invalid for fifteen
years. Doctors all agreed she had “Liver Dis

used various and noted remedies, none of which
seemed to do any good. Sometime ago 1 nrocu

cure. Respectfully, Ac., GEO. L. THOMAS.
Charlotte, N. C., Sept. 24.1568.
I have useil Dr. O. S. Prophitt’s Liver Medi

efficacious. It is excellent for functional de

bowels; in most cases superceding the necessity
of a regular course of medicine.

CONSUMPTION,
Its Cure and Its Preventive
BY J. H. SOHENCK, M. D.
MANY a human being has passed a wav,
for whose death there was no other i-eason
! than the neglect of known and indisputably
I proven means of cure. Those near and dear to
family and friends are sleeping the dreamless
slumber into which, had they calmly adopted
Dlt. JOSEPH n. SCHENCK’S SIMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious medicines, they would not have fallen.
Dr. Schenck has in bis own ease proved that
wherever sufficient vitwlßy remains, that vital
ity, l»y his medicines and his diree.tio-s 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 m failing, its pbilosopbv
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
eases of consumption originate in dvspepsia
and a functionally disordered livei. XX’itli 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
CONSUMPTION.
The Mandrake Pills are esmposed of one of
Nature’s noblest gilts—the PodophiPum Pelta
tum. They possess all the blood-scarching,
alterative properties of calomel.
But unlike calomel, they
“LEAVE NO STING BEHIND,”
.The work of euro 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
patient begins to feel that lie is getting, at
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, peTmeates and assimilates with the food.
Chy!ideation 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 in.
Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever
yet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Svrup comes into
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. Phvsiclans
who recommend that course Lose patients if
their lungs are badly diseased, and vet 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 n
good circulation of blood. The patients must
keep 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 alter such evidence of its
possibility in the worst cases, and moral cer
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Sclionck’s
personal statement to the Faculty of his oxvn
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 lot
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. 1 ml
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 nv
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 mv cough,
fevei, pain and night sweats all began to leax T e
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 flesh <A er since.”
“I whs weighed sliortlv after mv recovers, ”
added the Doctor, “then looking'like a mere
skeleton; my xvcight was only ninety-seven
pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and
twenty-five pounds, and for vears I hive
“ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.”
Dr. Schenck has discontinued his professional
visit to New York and Boston. He or his son,
Dr. J 11. Schenck. Jr., still continue to see
patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street
Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. m., t > 3
p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination
with tiro Respiromjßtcr xvill be charged five
dollars. The Respirometer declares the exact
condition ot tlie lungs, and patients can read lv
learn xvhether they are curable or not.
Tha directions for taking the medicine are
adapted to the intelligence ex - en of a child
Follow these directons, and kind nature will lo
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
symptom. XX hen it conies, as it xvill come, let
the despairing be of good cheer. Good blood at
once folloxx's, 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 keof
in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard
preparation; xvhile the Pulmonic Syrup, as a
curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as a
prophylacterio 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 bv all

1 Mountains, just after yon cross the
| great American desert and enter upon
i the narrow belt of fertile land which
lines the foot of the mountains. We
encamped as early as txx'o o’clock in
the day, iu order to let our animals rest
and feed, for xve had been traveling
hard all the xveek, and this was Satur
day, and xve intended remaining here
until Monday. The spot was wild,
picturesque and beautiful, and was upon
a small tributary of the South Fork of
Platte river. We pitched our tents in
a bunch of stunted cedars, that served
to keep ofT the burning rays of a June
sun. Having eaten mv dinner of dried
buffalo meat., smoked my pipe, and filled
rny knapsack xvith tobacco, matches,
and some other necessaries that I al
ways carried, so as to be provided for
in case of emergency, I threw my bul
let pouch over my shoulder, buckled
on my belt contaiug my trusty knife,
and taking a rifle in my hund, saun
tered away alone, up the litttle stream,
leaving my companions lounging and
smoking under tne trees. I walked
perhaps more than three miles, when
a beautiful herd of fine antelopes
sprang up from under a bank, wheie
they had been drinking, and bounded
away over the prairie towards the
bluffs. I watched them until they dis
appeared behind a small rise, and then
followed. A walk of nearly two miles
brought mo lo the top of the ridge;
and crawling upon my hands and
kne.'s, I discovered thorn quietly feed
ing in the valley at the edge of the
woods, a distance of a mile away,
ing behind a huge rock which here pro
truded itself I drew forth a piece of red
flannel from my knapsack, and fasten
ed it to my ramrod, and waved it over
my head. The timid little animals
were not long in discovering it; and
after gazing a few moments they start
ed with the fleet ness of the wind
directly towards me. Sticking the
ramrod in the ground, I cocked my
gun and quietly awaited their ap
proach. They boldly advanced, the
leader coining up within sixty yards,
and turning half around to see if his
companions were following, thus ex
posing his side to me. I fired, and
had the satisfaction of seeing the ani
mal fa 1, while the other companions
darted away and disappeared in the
woods. The sun was already sinking
below the mountains, whose shadows
threw a gloom over the prairie, and it
must soon be dark. I was five miles
from camp, weary and hungry from
my long tramp; and, besides, I wished
to go up the valley a little further in
the morning. So I decided to remain
where I was. I threw the deer across
my shoulders, and walked to the foot
of the hill, where a little stream trick
led along the grass, and some brush
and clump of trees afforded wood.—
Here I resolved to make my lire. By
the time I had finished my supper of
delicious steak, and drank my fill from
the little brook, and seated myself for
a smoke, it was fully dark; and the
howling of the wolves in the distance,
the gloomy shadows of the dark for
ests beyond the stream, the sighing of
the wood, all conspired to ini.ke me
feci gloomy and lonely. The howling
of the wolves began to grow more fre
quent and more distinct; and I began
to feel a little uneasy as I smoked my
meerschaum, and gazed into the fire,
when I thought of the fresh meat that,
was near, knowing that it would draw
them hither. I xxas uneasy, although
I had slept many times upon the prair
ie when they were prowiing around,
and felt unconcerned; yet I had never
seen such an immense number gather
in so short a time, und I was fearful
lest their hunger might tempt them to
attack me. It is true I was in no im
mediate danger, and there was a
clump of trees a short distance off,
and by climbing one of these I could
easily get out of their reach; but I dis
dained to climb a tree for them, and 1
knew if I did, that they would gather
around and keep me up the tree ali
night at least. Meanwhile the hungry
beasts began to approach the camp
fire, snuffing, howling, and sometimes
fighting and trotting around in a cir
cle just ouside the light. I grew more
uneasy, and rose to ray feet and grasp
ed my rifle, as one more bold than the
rest advanced within the firelight to
wards the dead antelope, snapping his
teeth, his eyes gleaming like balls of
fire. He retreated instantly in the
gloom, but did not remain long before
he returned; and this time I fired at
him, more to frighten them than any
thing else; but I crippled him so se
verely that he could only drag himself
out of the firelight, where he was
pounced upon by his hungry comrades
and devoured. I had little fear of
them as long as my fire kept blight;
but soon it began to go down, and it
was impossible for me to go after any
more wood, as I knew well enough
they would attack me as soon sis I
stepped outside the light. I began
to feel now that my situation was no
. enviable one, and so wished that I had
availed myself of the opportunity to
gM into the trees while the wolves
were yet on tlie hill. But now it
would be almost certain (lest: action
j for me to attempt to reach the trees
unless I could frighten the savage
brutes away, which I did not see much
prospect of doing, for they seem, and to
grow bolder, and the sound of my ri
fie would only scatter them far a mo
ment, and theu they would return and
snap, and snort, and howl, and fight,
and tiot arouud me in a circle, their
eves gluing n]xm mo as if they could
hardly restrain their appetite for my
blood. I had never seen them iu such
numbers, never so bold as they were
’ that night; and as my fire burned to
a bed of coals, and the circle gradual
i lv grew smaller, I felt that sooner or
I lat* r I must be devoured unless some
unforeseen Providence intervened. I
had just emptied my rifle amongst
them and was reloading my rifle as
rapidly as possible, when anew actor
appeared upon the scene. The wolves
suddenly turned up their noses, and
then, as xvith common consent, all 1
darted away inte the gloom, some of
them passing very close to me in theii
attempt to escape; nud a full grown
panther sprang into the firelight; and,
landing within ten feet of where I
stood, he paused for a moment to
gather himself for a spring upon me.
I had no time for thought or action.
My gun was but half loaded; and I
instinctively grasped my knife and
drexv it from the sheath, as v ith a loxv,
vengeful, horrid growl, the monster
sprang upon me. I darted quickly to
one side, throwing up my left arm as
I did so, holding my knife iu my right;
and as he came down his left paxv
struck my shoulder, his claws sinking
deep into the flesh, whilst he seized
mv arm between his teeth, almost
crushing it. My right arm being free,
my ki ii’e instantly sank to the hilt in
his side. We rolled together on the
ground, and a desperate struggle for
life ensued. I managed to keep my
right arm free, aud gave sever.fi telling
plunges xvith my knife; xvhile the
Hioaster still retained his hold on my
left arm, while his claws tore and rent
my clothes and flesh in the most hor
rid manner. I felt my strength fast
leaving me, while I struggled xvith the
desperate energy of a man who feels
that his life depends upon his own ex
ertions. As my oxvn strength failed,
however, I had she satisfaction of
knowing that my antagonist was also
failing. We had rolled over and over
in our struggle until the bed of the
stream received us, and hero xve wal
loxved in mud and xvater, the latter
not being deep enough for drowning.
Suddenly I felt his hold upon my arm
beginning to relax, and rising with
one superhuman effort, I plunged my
knife to the hilt in his heart. He
sprang to his feet xvith a savage growl,
letting me go entirely, but the next
moment he fell and quivered in the
agonies of death. This was the last I
knew; I s;.nk senseless in the bed of
the stream. When I awoke all was
inky darkness, and the rain was pour
ing down in torrents. For a moment
I was bewildered, and did not know
where I was or what had happened;
but when I attempted to move, the
acute pain in my arm aud lacerated
flesh brought to mind the late terrible
struggle. I was lying in the stream,
and my clothes were completely sat
urated xvith xvater; and this, with the
rain pouring down iu my face, had re
vived me to a state of consciousness.
I attempted to rise but fell back weak
and faint from the loss of blood and
the pain it gave me to move.
The wolves were once more howl
ing around; and I could already hear
them tearing the flesh from the bones
of the dead antelope. The blood was
still flowing from my arm, and I had
no means of preventing it. I felt mv
time had indeed come, and I mentally
raised a prayer lo Heaven that it
might come before I should be devour
ed alive by those horrid xvolves. The
rain ceased, and the daylight was ap
proaching, as I could just begin to see
the dim outlines of the wolves as they
fought over the carcass of the dead
antelope, and I saw beside me, dimly
iu the faint light, the form of the life
less panther. Soon they finished their
repast, leaving nothing but bones ; and
began to approach the spot xvhere I
lay. There was but a few of them,
however, and these, having feasted up
on the antelope, were not ferocious
enough, I knexv, to devour me instant
ly. I endeavored to raise myself once
more as they came very near: and see
ing signs of life, they drexv back a lit
tle and seemed to hesitate. I manag
ed—though rot without the most
acute pain—to crawl a few feet back
and place my back, against the bank
of the stream where it was four or five
feet in perpendicular height, and
grasping my knife in my right hand, I
thus awaited their approach, deter
mined to sell my life as dearly as pos
sible. They began encircling me, oc
casionally sitting upon their haunches
to watch me as a cat xvould a wounded
mouse, walking along on the bank di-
over me, and looking down aud
snapping their teeth within a fexv
inches of my head, and I expected ev
ery moment they would leap upon me.
The sun had fully risen, when one
more bold than the rest sprang upon
the dead panther and commenced
tearing out the llesh. I felt my blood
curdle in my veins as I saw bis horrid
teeth cutting iuto the dead animal,
not knowing how soon I was to un
dergo the same operation. The time
had eouie ! One of the largest and
most ferocious-looking of the pack
could stand it no longer; and growl
ing and showing his chattering teeth
in a horrid grin, he squatted xvith the
intention of jumping on roe. I made
an atturup to raise my knife to defend
myself, but was too weak, it fell power
hss at my side, aud I closed my exes

ritle rang out upon the morning «jy
aud the savage brute rolled over in
the agonies of death, while the rest
took to their heels. I was saved ! It

\egro an«l White Social Hquiill
ly In the Common SchooU of
Ohio, to t>e Enforced.
Fij'ltj one out of fifty-seven Republi
can members of the Ohio Legislature
voted to have white and negro chil
dren attend the common schools, in
which they declared should l>e no dis
tinction ou account of color. That
question will now enter largely into the
legislative canvass this coming elec
tion. On the first vote the proposi
tion received fifty votes. In order to
give an oportunity to pass an amend
ed school law, which should not con
tain the obnoxious white and black
mixture clause, Mr. Parr, a Democrat,
moved to reconsider the vote by which
the bill was lost; but ou the second
trial one more vote was added to the
Republican strength, making fifty-one
in favor of having whites and blacks
in the same school. That shows a
persistence of determination to enforce
the social equality of whites aud blacks
by legislutiv© enact meuf. So the
question must enter Largely into the
next canvass in Ohio.

in his letter of the 22d insk, speaking
of the late District of Columbia Terri
torial election, and the effort that may
be made to enforce mixed schools, as
the Ohio Republicans are determined
to urge, say3:
“It would be a great outrage, and
probably result in the destruction of
the common school system. Whit.)
parents will not consent to have their
children seut to the mixed schools, and
in this they are perfectly right. The
student of Blackstono or the student
of any sort has been taught that there
are certain crimes considered crimes in
themselves, made so by the law of
God aud the law of nature; there are
other trim a against that law, made
such by the municipal ordinances, or
more positively still by long custom,
wh’cli comes to be a second nature.
To this last belongs the attempted
social equality to be brought about
through the mixod education of the
two races. No man can send his child
to one of these schools without a sense
of degradation, and the evil which
comes of this violation of our social
laws is as positive and as well defined
as that which comes from the commis
sion of a crime against the law of God.
The parent who sends the child into
the society of negroes receives iu his or
her moral nature as much punishment
as if the same child had beou seut
among immoral characters.
That is strongly put, but not too
much so. The attempt to compel this
social equality of blacks and whites in
the common schools is an outrage
which no right-minded or right-feeling
pareut should for a moment counten
ance. The Republican party intend
to have such laws passed everywhere,
aud in addition thereto another of
compulsory education, which will com
pel trie children of the poor to associ
ate with the negroes. That is the
next step in the Republican program
me. It is the last step, we are told,
iu the path of progress: ‘emancipation.’
‘enfranchisement,’ ‘social equality.’

Asa gentleman was taking a glass
of wine at the St Louis, corner of
Freeman and Hopkins st,. Cincinnati,
about tLree weeks ag >, he ebeerved at
another tabic, seated with several oth
ers, a German, who seemed uneasy
and anxious, as if there might have
been a Franco Prussian disagreement
between his beer and himself. Pres
ently in ran a little girl, her face radiant
with smiles, exclaiming;
‘Oh, father, we’ve got a little poy at
home!’
‘JDat is goot„ said the Dutchman as
the anxiety disappeared from his coun
tenance: till up de glasses.’
Not many minutes elapsed before in
rushed the little gill again with the
announcement:
‘O, father, we’ve got two little poys
at Lome!’
The Dutchman looked a good deal
astonished and not at all gratified at
this little family redundancy, but ris
ing at length to the magnitude of the
occasion, he said:
‘‘Veil, den, dat is also goot. Fill up
dor glasses.”
In a few minutes again appeared
the radiant messenger, with the as.
tounding proclamation:
‘O, father we’ve got three litte poys
at home!’
This was too much even for Teuton

call for glasses,
