CONSUMPTION. *s»<*! mu Its Cure and Its Prevtntlve BY J. H. SCHENCK, M. Sdl ■■ | MANY’ a human being has passed away, for whose death there jvas 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■dreamles.s slumber into which, had tltcy oplialy adopted bit. JOSISPII 11. SCKENCK’S SIMPLE TREATMENT. and availed themselves of his wonderful effica cious medicines, they would not have fallen- Dr. Sclienck basin his own case proved that wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vital ity, by his medicines and bis directions for their use, i* 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 amfVisible works. The theory of the cure by Dr. Sclienck’s medicines is as simple as it is m failing. 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 tlie cases of consumption originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered livci. With this condition the bronchial tubes “ svmpatliize” with tlie stomach. They respond to tlie morbific action of the liver. Here then comes the cul minating result, and tlie setting in, with all its distressing symptoms, of CONSUMPTION. The Mandrake Pills are esmposed of one of Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podooliillum 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 in the bowels and in the alimentary canal are ejected. The liver, like a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its torpiditv. Tlie stomach acts responsively, and tlie patient begins to feel that be is getting, at last, A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food. Chylification is now progressing without nt# previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at lmnd. There is no more flatulence, no exacerbation of the stomach An appetite sets in. Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever vet given by an indulgent father to suffering man. Scliem-k’s Pulmonic Syrup conies in to perform its functions and to hasten and com plete tlie cure. Tt 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 whim the, lungs are diseased, but it must be prevented or a cure cannot be effected. Fresh nil- and riding out, especially in this section of tlie 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 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 with tlie 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. ftchenck’# personal statement to the Faculty of liis own cure was in these modest words : Many years ago I was in the lasi stages of consumption; confined to inv lied, 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 tlie public, and they made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened tlie matter in mv lungs, and I would spit up more than aziutof offensive yellow matter every liouiin# for a long time. As soon as that began to subside my cough, fevei, pain anti night sweats all began to leave me. and my appetite became «o great that ft was with difficulty that £ could keep from eating too much. I soon gained my strength, and have grown in flesh ever slnoe.’* - “I was weighed shortly after mv recovery,” added the Doctor, “then looking like a mere skeleton; my weight was uolv uiivetv-ooshio pounds ; my present weight i« two hundred aftilT twentv-flve pounds, and for years I have “ ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.” Dr. Sehenek lias discontinue*! his pmfc«ffiMi*l visit to New York and Boston. He or his son. Dr. J H. Sehenek. Jr., still continue to see patients at their offica, No. 15 North SixUi sljaact. Philadelphia, every Saturday from 0 a rfi,VV>'3 p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination with the Respirometcr wfl! fie charged five dollars. The Res|ammeter declares the.«*aet condition of the lungs, and patients eftri reaairv learn whether they are curable or lot. Tho directions for taking the medicine am adapted to the intelligence even of a Fltflift Follow these directoiis, and kind nature will dp the rest, excepting that in soaie cases ttuf jlfaii drake Pills are to lie Liken in increased doses ; the three medicines heed no other accompani ments than the ample ins(ructioat tlmt <lo accompany thorn. First create appetite. ’Of returning’ health hunger is the most welcome symptom. When it comes, as it wilj come, let the despairing lie of good cheer. Grind blood at once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short time both of these uiorbm symptoms are gone forever. Dr. Schenck’s medicines are constantly kept in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative, or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup*, as m enrol* of coughs and colds, may he regarded as 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 sate jfil druggists and dealers- •JOHN E.

Gatheij the sacre dust Os warriors tried ana true, Who bore the Flag of our Nation’s trust, Amd fell in the cause, though Lost, still Just, And died forme and you. Gather them otie affd all! From the Private to the (Jhief, Come they from hovel or princely hall, They fell for us, and for them should fall, The tears of a Nation's grief. Gather the corpses strewn o’cr mauy a battle plain; From many a grave that lies so lone, Without a name and without a stone, Gather the Southern slain. We care riot whence they came, Dear is their lifeless clay ! Whether unknown, or known, to fame. Their cause and country still the same— They died—and wore the Gray. WhereveFthc brave have died, They should not rest apart; Living they struggled side by side—. Why should the hand of Death divide A single heart from heart ? Gather their scattered clay, Wherever it may rest; Just as they marched to the bloody fray ; Just as they fell on the battle-day; Bury them breast to hreabt. The foemen need not dread This gathering of the brave ; Whithout sword or ling, and with sonudless tread, Wc muster, once more, our deuthlcrsdead— Out of each louely grave. The focman need not frown ; They arc all powerless now— We gather them here and wc lay them down. And tears and prayers are the only crown We bring, to wreathe each brow, And the dead thus meet the dead, While the living o’er them weep; And the men whom Lee and Stonewall led; And the hearts that once together bled; Together still shall sleep. [From the Farmer A Gardener. A South Ciirolimi friend hands us the following* poetical gem which, at a recent religions revival in that State, was sung by the colored folks and re ceived by them with unbounded en t husiasm; “We’s be nearer to de Lord Den de white folks, and dey knows it; See de glory gate unbarred— Walk in, darkeys, past de guard! Bet yer a dollar He won’t close it! "Walk in, cTarkets, troo de gate, Hark, de kullered angels holler; Go away, white folks, you’re too late! We’s de wiunin’ kuller! Wait ’Till de’trumpet blow to foiter 1 “Halleloojah! tanks to praise! Long euutf we’ve borne our crosses; Now we’s de sooperior race, And, wid Gorramighfcy’s grace, V e s gwine to hebben afore de bosses/ Matiumqsk and Fkiendshtp.-—The na ture of matrimony is one thiDg, and the nature of friendship is another, A tail man likis a short wife; a great talker likes a silent wife, for bjth can t talk at once. A gay man likes a do mestic girl, for he can leave her at home to nurse the children and make pap, while he is enjoying himself at parties. A man that hasn’t any mus ic in him, likes it in his spouse—and so on. It chunes beautiful, for they aint in each other’s way. Now, friendship is the other way; you must like the same things in or der to like each other and be friends. They must be congenial in their tast es. Matrimony likes contrasts, and fritflttdship seeks its own counter parts. * - When a Chicago girl quarrels with her lover she communicates the fact to her friends in the remark that she is’ut on squeezing terms with the fraud no wore,’ i «•» r ‘You’d better look out for your hoss’s feet above here, mister, said a ragged boy to a traveler. Why ? ask ed the gentleman, nervously pulling up. ‘Cause, there’s a fork in the road there, sir,’ was the candid reply. ‘‘What's whisky bringing ?” inqnir ed a dealer in that article. “Bring ing noon to the gallows, and Women and children to want,” was the reply. A bashful young man was escorting baashful young lady when she said, entreatingly: ‘Jabez, don’t tell any body you beaned me home’—Don’t be afraid,’relied he, ‘I am as much ashamed of it as you are. That Set tled it. Sun Spots.— A large portion of the sun’s snrfnce is again covered by spots, which probably accounts for our late spell of cdbl went her. The Male Kimd Ittwntigratten. There is someth mg about this so called investigation ot tlie State Road Swindle that we do uot precisely tin- 1 derstaud. iVe l oud long columns tA evidence in the Atlanta papers that amount to nothing—weary cross ex amiimtions that * licit nothing. It per plexes us. Another thing that is not the least puzzling part of the affair is, that no sooner does the investigation set in, than that the eminent patriot, Foster Blodgett, rushes to the fore, and wildly proffers bis aid. He writes j gusbiug letters to liis next-door neigh bors, and then exult ingly prances to the printing offices and has them pub lished. ‘‘Show me these S’ate Rond thieves,*’ says this honest rnau, “*nd Til fix ’em. I’ll drag ’em forth. I* 1 show ’em what it is to cheat and .* wiu dle the people of the £ ea- and good State of Georgia.” Posnbly. Bur the truth of the busine-is is, we look u}>on the investigation as about the dreariest hoax that has ever been j r ictited up on the public. There is i o bing in it, and nothing will come of it. It ia manipulated by Blodgett & Cos., and is not in the interest of the people. It is a farce. The arrest and trial of out side parties cannot throw any light up ou the swindle, and will uot satisfy the public. The people of Georgia want to know what became of the earnings of the State Road under Foster Blodgett’s admiuiatratioo. Thtd ia what they want investigated. The other swin dles on the road—overcharges for sup plies, and that sort of thing—are a mere matter of mootishine. The thing to be investigated is whether JJlodgett and his clan stole the money, or wheth er they allowed other people to steal it, and that investigation is bound to come. The busy B’s inuy dodge it for a time; they may even evade the law by packing their carpet-bugs and emi grating lo other climbs; but the inves tigation will be made. The inv« stigatiou now going on in Atlanta is a very funny affair. It ap pears to us to be a movement to drive the minnows into shallow water, where their flutter will attract attention, while the slnuks draw off out of sight. But we promise the honest Blodgett and the amiable Bullock that their time is coming.

Home can never be made happy without it. It is like the flowers that spriDg up in our pathway, reviving and cheering us. Let a man go home at night wearied by the toils of the day, and how soothing is a word dictated by a good disposition. It is sunshine falling on his heart. He is happy and the cares of life are all forgotton. A sweet temper h_s a soothing influence on the minds of a whole family. Where it is found in the wife nud mother, vou observe kindness and love predominating over the natural feelings of a bad heart, smiles, kind words and looks ebarac ize the children, and peace and love have their dwelling there. A sweet temper is more valuable than gold ; it captivates more than beauty and to the close of life it retains all freshness and power. —Neinian Herald. ’*• i—-t—— 2z£F An Atlanta boy ate thirte u ap ple dumplings for desert one day last wn k The boy arid the dumplings were buried hi out* grave.

An old Scotch minister on boing asked to preach a sermon in favor of equality, at a time of great excitement on that subject, said at the close of a sermon, in as follows: You asked me to preach a sormon on equality. Since that time I have ranged in vision through the vegeta ble world; I saw flowers of equal lus tre and perfume, trees of equal height and value, but there is no equality there. I passed to the animal kingdom, and saw the trained horses and the fierce beasts of prey, the linnet and the hawk, the sparrow and the eagle, the sheep and the horse, each occupy ing a rv lative sphere. In the sea where the molluse and the whalq, the dolphin and theshaik, the timid and the fierce, each proper ly organized and doing its proper la bor, but I saw no equality. Lastly, I entered the gate of Heav en, and on a great throne sat tho Judge of the Universe; .cherubim and I seraphim fell before him, angels of lesser degree did his bidding. I fouud seven heavens rising above each other, but no equality there. I gazed on the stars, and found “one star different from onother star in glory;” but there was no equality. So you see that there is no equality in ail God’s vast kingdom. Eighty thousand dollars have been subscribed in Columbus to the new bank, not a dollai of which was by the merchants.
