CONSUMPTION,
Its Cure and Its Preventive
BY J. H, SOHENCK, M. D
MANY’ a human being has passed awav,
for whosejleath there was no other reason
than the neglect of known and indisputably*
proven means of cure. Those near and dear to
family ami friends are sleeping the dreamless
slumber Into which, had they calmly adopted
Dlt. JOSEPH H. SCHENCK’S SIMPLE
TREATMENT.
and availed themselves of his wonderful effica
cious medicines, they would not h ave fallen.
IJr, Schenck lias in his own case proved that
wherever sufficient vittslity remains, that vital
ity, I)3* his metliemeg and bis directions for
their use, is quickened into healthful vigor.
In this statement- there is nothing presump
tuous. To the faith ?>f 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. Schcpek’s. medicines
is as simple as it is unfailing. Its philosophy
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
cases of consumption originate in dyspepsia
and a functionally disordered livei. YVith this
condition the bronchial tubes “sympathize”
with the stomach. They respond to the morbific
action of the liver. Here t hen 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 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 imicous deposits in the bowels and
in the alimentary oatral-arc 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
last,
A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD.
The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the
Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food.
Chylillcation 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 conics the greatest Blood Purifier ever
yet given by an indulgent father to suffering
man. Schcnck’s Pulmonic Svrup comes in to
perform its functions and to hasten and com
plete the cure. It enters at once upon its work.
Nature cannot _he 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 he prevented or
a cure cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding
out, especially in this section of the country in
the winter geasop, 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 spirlts*-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 cases, and moral cer
tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr, Schcnck’s
personal statement to the Faculty of his own
cure was in these modest) words:
Many years ago 1 was in tire 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
narations which I now offer to the public, and
they made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to
me that I could feci thorn penetrate my whole
system. They soon ripened'the matter in mv
lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint of
offensive yellow matter every morning for a
long time.
As soon as that begun to subside mv cough,
fevei, pain and night sweats all began ‘to leave
me, and my appetite became so great that it
was with difficulty that 1 could keep from
eating too much. 1 soon gained my strength,
and have grown in flesh 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-five pounds, and for years I have
“ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.”
Dr. Schenck has discontinued his professional
visit to New York and Boston. He or Mis son,
Dr. .T 11. Schoae.k, still continue to see
patients at their office., No. 15 North Sixth street,
Philadelphia, efory Saturday from 9 a. m.. to 8
p. m. Those who Wish a thorough examination
with the Respirera#ter will lie charged five
dollars. The itespirttaieter declares tiro exact
condition of the lungs, and patients can readily
learn whether they fire onrablc or not.
The directions for taking the medicine are
adapted to the intelligence even ol’ a child
Follow-these directous, 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 he pf good cheer. Good blood at
once follows, the coitglf loosens, the night dweat
is abated, In a short time both of these morbid
symptoms are gone forever. *
*Dr. Schonck’s medicines are .constantly kept
ip tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative,
or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard
preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as A
carer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as a
prophylaeteric against consumption in any of
its forms. . '
Price of the Pulmonic. Syrup and Seaweed
Tonic, $1,50 a bottle, or fIAO a half dozen. Man
drake Pills, 25 cents a box. For sale by all
druggists-and dealers.

What faded leaves are strewn along
The path of ycdt'rday:
The pretty flowers we prized the most,
Lie withered dn the war.
We see onr blighted hopes and wpopt
Then hauteout* tears to stay,
For there are otlwn- blooming buds
Upon the bush 'to&fajf.
And hope, forgetful of the past,
Anticipates the flower
That bright will bloom upon the stem,
When falls to-marrant shower,
A Serfs Love.
Some years ago, a Russian' nobleman
was traveling on special business in
the interior of .Russia. It was the be
ginning of winter, but tho frost had
set in early. His carriage rolled up to
an inn, find he demanded a relay of
horses to carry him on to tho next sta
tion, where he Intended t 6 spend the
night. The inn-keeper entreated him
no to proceed: for lie said there was
danger in traveling so late—the wolves
were out. But the nobleman thought
that the igan wanted to keep him as a
guest; he said it was too early and or
dered the horses to be put to. He
then drove off, jvith his wife and only
daughter inside the .carriage with him.
On the box of tho carriage was a serf,
who had been raise* on the nobleman’s
estate, to whom ho was much attach
ed, and who loved his master as he
loved his own life. They rolled over
the hardened snow, and there seemed
no sign of danger. Tho moon shed
her pale light, and brought into bur
nished silver the road on which they
were going. At length the little girl
said to her father:
“What was that strange howling
sound that I just heard ?”
“Oh, nothing but the wind sighing
through the forest trees,” replied the
father.
The child shut her eyes and was qui
et. But soon she said again;
“Listen, father; it is not like the
wind I think.”
The father listened; and far, far
away, through the clear, cold, frosty
air, he heard a noise which he knew too
well the meaning of. ge then put
down the window, and spoke to the
servant: “The wolves, I fear., are after
us; make haste. Tell the man to drive
faster, and get onr pistol ready.” The
postilion drove faster. But the same
mournful sound w T hich the child had
heard approached nearer and nearer.
It was quite clear that a pack of
wolves had seoDtcd them out. The
nobleman tried to calm tho anxious
fears of his wife and child. At last the
baying of the pack was distinctly heard.
So he said to his servant:
“When they come up with us, do
you single out one, and fire, and I will
single out another; and while the rest
are devouring them, we shall get on.”
As soon as he had put down the
window, he saw the pack in full cry be
hind, the large dog wolf at their head.
Two shots were fired, and two of the
wolves fell. The others immediately
set upon them, and devoured them;
and meanwhile the carriago gained
ground. But tho taste of blood only
made them more furious, and they were
soon up with the carriage again. Agaiu
two shots wore fired, and two fell and
were dovoured. But the carriage was
speedily overtaken, and the post-house
was yet far distant. The nobleman
then ordered the postillion to loose one
of his leaders, that they might gain a
a little time. Tins was done, and the
poor horse plunged frantically into the
forest, and the wolves after him, and
was torn to pieces. Then another
horse was sent off to share the same
fato. The carriage labored on as fast
as it could with tho remaining horses;
but tlio post-house was still distant.—
At length the servant said to his mas
ter, ‘I have served you ever since I was
a child; I love you as well as my own
self. Nothing now can save you but
one thing. Let me save you. I ask
you only to look after my wife and lit
tle ones.’ The nobleman remonstrated
but in vain. When the wolves next
camo up, he threw himself against
them. The panting horses galloped
on with tho carriage, and the gates of
the post-house just closed in upon it,
as the fearful pack were on the point
of making the last fatal attack. But
the travelers were safe! • Tho next
morning they went out, and saw the
place where the faithful servant had
been pulled down by the wolves. His
bones only were there. And on the
spot tho nobleman erected a wooden
pillar, on which is this, “Greater love
hath no man than this, that a man
lay down his life for his friend.” ‘But
God commcndeth his love for us, in
that-while we were yet sinners Christ
died for us.’
Horace Grcely on Carpet-Bag
gers
While giving his experience at tlio
South in a public address in New
York, some evenings since, Hofnce
Greely paid Iris compliments to the
carpet-baggers in manner and form as
follows:
Well, gentlemen, the thieving carpet
baggers are a mournful fact; they do
exist there, and I have seen them
, [Laughter.] They are fellows who
cnwled and wa South in the track of our
armies, generally a very safe distance
in the rear; some of them on sutlers
wagons; some bearing cotton permits;
some of them lot king sharply to see
wU*t hi ay turn up; and they remain
there. They at once ingratiated them
selves with the blr.dk-s, Simple, credu
lous, ignorant men, scry"glad to wel
come and to k>huw any whites who
professed U» be tho champions their
rights. Sonic of these got elected Sen
ators. others Representatives, some
Sheriffs, some Judge*', and so on. And
there they stand, right m flic public
eye, stealing and plundering, many of
them with both arms around negroes,
and tlieir hands in their redr pockets,
seeing if they cannot pick a paltry dol
lar out of them; and the public looks
at them, does not regard the honest
Northern men, but calls every “carpet
bagger” a thief, which is not the truth
by a good deni. But those fellow’s—
many of them long-faced, and with
eyes rolled up, are greatly concerned
for the education of the blacks, and for
the salvation of their souls. [Great
laughter.] “Let us pray,” they say.—
But they spell pray with an “o,” and
thus spelled, they obey tho apostolic
injunction to f ‘pray without ceasing.”
Fellow citizens, the time has been
and still is, when it was perilous to be
known as a Republican or an Aboli
tionist in the South, but it never called
the blush of shame to any man’s cheek
to be so called, until these thieving car
pet-baggers went there—never! [Ap
plauso. j They got into the Legisla
ture; they went to issuing State bonds;
they pretended to use them in aid of
railroads and other improvements.—
But the improvements were not mado,
and tho bonds stuck in the issuers’
pockets. [Laughter.] That is the pity
of it.
“WeH,” some say, “you have just
thieves at tho North.” Yes, we do—
too many of them ! [Applause.] But
the South was already impoverished — 1
was Bankrupt—without money, with
out thrift, almost without food; and
these fellows went there robbing and
swindling when there was very little
to steal, and taking the last ten cent
shinplaster off of the dead men’s eyes.
They were recognized by tho late* aris
tocracy not merely as thieves but as
enemies. Bays Byron’s Greek min
strel,
“A tyrant—but our masters then
Were still at least our countrymen.”
Thus we record the men who annu
ally rob us at Albany, at Trenton, and
at Harrisburg. They do not cany’
their plunder out of the State when
they getr any. These fellows do! The
South was not merely beaten in the
late contest, she was profoundly aston
ished by the result. Her people have
not fairly got over their amazement at
their defeat; and what they see of us
are these thieves, who represent the
North to their jaundiced vision, and,
representing it, they disgrace it. They
are the greatest obstacle to tho tri
umph and permanent ascendancy of
Republican principles at the South,
and as such I denounce them. [Ap
plause.]
Abusing Jefferson Dot is.
The True Georgian of yesterday cop
ies a long rigmarole of strictures from
the Richmond Enquirer, all of which
it endorses, and specially commends
“the teachings of the article to Mr.
Davis himself, with the hopo that ho
may act upon them in the future.”—
This might have corno very well from
some sources, but coming from the
Irite Georgian, the editor of which
claims the questionable honor of hav
ing been the first to nominate Grant
for the Presidency, it grates rather
roughly upon Southern footings. The
editor of the True Georgian was in full
co-operation with the Radical party
in its efforts to get possession of the
State of Georgia. He was with it
while tho hungry comorants which
composed it wero fattening upon the
substance of the people. Ho labored
with his whole might to elect the first
negro Legislature. He labored hard
to carry the State for Grant and pre
viously for Governor Dullock. No
man assailed Democrats more bitterly
and more harshly than ho did. This
he will not deny, and if ho lias any
modesty at all, it would teach him to
be cautious in censuring others whose
record he may suppose to be vuluera
able, or language objectionable or im
prudent.
Whether Mr. Davis lias been pru
dent or imprudent—whether he is a'
representative of thp feelings of the
Southern people or not,’ it is quite un
becoming in the editor of the True
Georgian to become his volunteer
champion assailant.
MV. Davis is now honored by thou
sands who differed very decidedly
with the policy of his administration,
and who, then and now, cast not a lit-:
Uo of the blame of the Southern fail-,
ure upon him; because ho was the
chosen head and representative of a
cause which Was dear to every South
ern heart; and though the Southern
people may have honestly abandoned
all attempt to separate themselves
from tlio Union by secession, vet it is
not- according to human nature for
them while life lasts to hate tho cause
yhich they so earnestly and heartily
espoused; and he who expects South
ern people, now to hate and disown
the representatives of that cause, how
ever lost it may be forever, is simply
foolish and knows nothing of the man
ly instincts which actuate the masses
erf our people.
Tnis is the meaning of the honors
which are given to Jefferson Davis,
and in this way ho is honored by all

Curing Cancer with Bed Clover
Tea.
Tlio Newark Courier prints the fol
lowing.
Some remarkable cures, effected by
the use of a decoction of the common
clover, drank as a tea and used ns a
wash, have lately called the public at
tention to the medical properties of
this pktnti This, however, cannot be
said to be anew remedy; it has l>eeu
employed for some years past, ami
there are some apparently well attest
ed cases of its efficacy, even after tho
disease had become distrossingly pain
ful arid all hope was given up. The
following report of one of these cases
has been written for us by a corre
spondent:
“Mr. Joel Rood,-sor. in-law of Mr.
Truman Woodford, has a cousin resid
ing in Great BarriDgton, Mass., tho
wire of a hotel keepor, who had a can
cer in the breast, which became so se
rious that the whole gland was remov
ed by a surgeon and the wound hoal
ed. About a year after the cancerous
humor broke out again and was begin
ning to be serious. i\ Ir. Rood, seiug the
good effects of the clover tea and wash
on his father-in-law, Mr. Truman
Woodford, wrote to his cousin, inform
ing her of the fact, and urging lior to
try the remedy. She adopted it at
once, and in a few months was entire
ly healed, and at tho time of receiving
this information, which was a year or
more afterwards, no reappearance of
the humor had occurred.
The following appears in the “Amer
ican Dispensary,” by Dr. John King, of
Cincinnati:
“The extract of red clover spread on
lineu or soft, thin leather is said to be
an excellent remedy for cancerous ul
cers. It is highly recommonded in ill
conditioned ulcers of every kind, and
deep, ragged edged, and otherwise bad
ly-conditioned burns. It posses a pe
culiar soothing property, and proves
an efficacious detorgont, and promotes
a healthful granulation.”

The use of poultices is to promote
warmth and moisture; hence those
which keep warm'and moist the long
est are the best. Cold light wheat
bread, souked in sweet milk, makes
good ones. A beet fresh from the gar
den, and pounded fine, makes an ex
cellent poultice
