DIR. j. SCHENCK'S
PULMONIC SYRUP,
For the cure of Consumption.

The proprietor of this medicine was himself
many years ago, reduced so low as TO be given up
by his physcians and friends, in the last stage Of
Cons sumpton. When all hopes of ever getting well
had fled he was strongly recommended to use
Syrup made from old Indian receipt, which sue
cccdrd in cticctually cureing him. The family
physicians and u large number of respectable gem
lemen certified to the facts of this case and soon
the pulmouic Sytup obtained II reputation never
equaled in that section of the country. Creating.
as this case did. sensation second to that only Of
II miracle. DR.. Schenck was waited upon by many
similarly afflicted to whom he administered the
syrup with the same beneficial results. In fact,
such was the notoriety of this medicine that em-
inent practicing physlctns had their attention
drawn toward the rising reputation of it, from hav-
ing witnessed its curative powers, and freely ex
tended the hand of friendship and encouragement
to DR.. Schcnck and introduced the medicine to the
publ jc. and used ii in their daily practice.
No other medicine operates upon the system in
the manner that the Pulmonic Syrup does. 1t pro-
duccs healthy action upon the morbid parts. by
purifying them from diseases it promotes the
pcctOrations, aays the cough ripens the matter in
the lungs. and when il is discharged. it heals the
opening that the breaking Of the tubcrclcs or alb
scess produces, and the lungs become sound and re-
sumo the performance of their natural functions
it also soothes the itated portion Of the lungs and
other organs and thus restores these parts to health
4 superior property that the medicine possesses
over all others is. that it contains opium, calo
mel. or any other deletrious medicine.
In 1871 DR.. Schenck removed from Pennington,
New Jersey. to Philadcphin. and commenced the
practice of his profession. where he soon acquired
reputation eXccllcd hy none in curing disease
that had heretofore been deemed incurablc and he
has since then daily prcscntad to the world incon-
tcstiblc evidence of his success.
Both Of his parents died with Consumption, which
appears to have been an hereditary disease with his
fathers family All his brcthers and sisters. except
one. died early of this disease, of them, but
the one brother, reaching the age twenty.

GETTING EN- MIxEp.-Wa once
heard an old fellow, famous all over the
country for his toug yarns, tell the fol.
lowing: He was telling what heavy
wheat he had seen in the State of New
York.
MY father said he, 'once had a
field of wheat the heads of which were
so close together, that the wild turkeys,
when they came to eat it, could walk
around on top of it anywhere
We suggested that the turkeys might
have been small ones.
No, sir continued he, they we're
large ones. shot one of them one day,
and when took hold of his legs to car
ry him, his head dragged in the snow

The First Kiss.

"Nay, ask me not-how could I bring
My lips to rest on manhood's brow,
A maiden may not lightly fling
Her timid nature oif-and thou,
Carcssed as thou art wont to be,
What were kiss of mine to thee?
And thou wouldst think that had pressed
Another cheek as soon as thine,
Should allow my lips to rest
Gwen lightly as on hallowed shrine
The trembling lips Of dcvotee)
On thine, as pledge of love to thee"
But then some words of gentle sound
Were whispered to the maiden's heart
She could not bear his love to wound
The hour had come when they must part
And she was young, and fond, and true
What could the gentle maiden do?
The spell is boken--she has laid
Her trembling lips against his check;
On hers there is a deeper shade
OF crimson, but she does not speak;
Her voice is hushed-her voice is still
Tis given, half without her will!

THE A" COUNTRY SAFE. in olden
times, when the very best of men were
apt to indulge in convivialites, without
fear of very greatly shocking the then
moral sense OF the community, two old
cod gers, whom We shall designate by
the uncommon names Of Smith and
Jones, spent an evening abroad in a
very happy manner Jones became
very much " elevated" " by the excess
Of indulgence--so much SO that he was
incapable Of self-volition. Smith, tho
himself somewhat excited, undertook
the grateful task of conducting his part
ner in joy to his residence. This, with
much difficulty, from the crOokedness of
the streets, and the up-and- -downness Of
the sidewalks, he accomplished. Jones
grasped the handle of his own door, and
oscillating to and fro, with look Of
comical gravity, hiccoughed out -
" We'll, Mr., Smith, guess yOu can
go alone non; y0u 'front.' need auy more
Of my assistance"
Supplementary to the above, we would
add another, which We have either heard
or read. Another dcvotee of Bacchus
being absent from home rather later in
the day than suited the sovereign will
and pleasure of his "spare-rib," she dc.
volved the task OF announcing the arri
val OF the delinquent spouse, upon he
eldest boy. Very soon the little urchil
ran into the house, exclaiming -
" Marin, here comes daddy, leadin
