Schenck,s Seaweed Tonic.

This medicine, invented by DIR. j. II. ScHRScK
of Philadelphia, is intended to dissolve the foo,
and make it into chyme, the first process of di'
gestion. BY cleansing the stomach with
Schenck's Mandrake Pills, the Tonic soon re-
stores the appetite. and food that could not DO
eaten before using il will be easily digested
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck s
Pulmonic Syrup unless the stomach and liver is
made healthy and the appetite restored, hence the
Tonic and Pills are required in nearly every case
Of consumption. A half dozen bottles OF the
SEAWEED TONIC and three or four boxes of
the MANDRAKE PILLS will cure any ordinary
case of dyspepsia.
DIR. SCIiENcK makes professional visits in New
York, Boston, and at his principal Office in
Philadelphia every week. See daily papers of
each place, or his pamphlet on consumption, for
his days OF visitation.

stage of Consumption, and the other as he now
is, in perfect health-are on the Government

Who has not paused and wondered at
the weird monotone of the telegraph

life, sob and culver, when the operators

Sometimes, if You place your ear in con-
tact with the dead post, you find it per-
vaded by a sympathetic tremor which
seems to quicken every fibre, and fill
every cell of the lifeless wood. We have
never observed these phenomena with
out sensation of awe, born of the con-
seriousness that we were i'll the presence
of agencies, sublime and marvellous, as
we'll in what is manifest, rs in that
which is unrevealed. Who knows that
this god of electricity, whose omnipo-
tence rends the gnarled and knotted oak
into fragments, and whose omnipresence
the mountain heights and ocean depths
and intervening continents every mo-

sages of his own, which no expert in
sounds and hieroglyphs is wise enough
to interpret.
One of the most perpleXing incidents
of this brief life is the separation which
death seems to make, of human con-
seriousness, from the wonders Of which
almost every day augments in numbers.
Why are we not permitted to witness
the full revelation of mysteries which
the human intellect is daily dragging
from recesses wherein they have been
locked up since the world beganl We
often think of the aspiration of that
wise old man, whose wish it was to re-
turn to earth, after an interval of hun
bred years, to see the development of
human progress. All if he could only
know what has been achieved by the
shark which he brought from the clouds
with his kite-string and key. And who
is wise enough to assert that he does
