~ DIR. SCHENCK'S MEDICINES,
! To cure Consumption, the system must be pre-
pared SO that the lungs will heal. To accomplish
this, the liver and stomach must first be cleansed
and an appetite created for good wholesome food,
which, by these medicines will be digested prop
erly, and good healthy blood made thus build
ing uu the constitution. ScHENcK's MANDRAKE
Pitts cleanse the stomach Of all bilious or muce-
Gus accumulations and, by using the Sea weed
Tonic in connection, the appetite is restored.
ScHENcK' PULMoNIc SYRUP is nutricious as well
as medicinal, and, by using the three remedies,
all impurities are expelled from the system, ana
good, wholesome blood made, which will repel all
disease. If patients will take these medicines ac-
cording to directions, Consumption very frequent
ly in its last stage yields readily to their action
Take the pills frequently to cleanse the liver ana
stomach 1t does notfollow that because the bow
els are not costive they notrequred, for some
times in diarrhna they are necessary. The stom-
ach must be kept healthy, and an appetite created
to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act on the res
pratory organs properly and allay any irritation.
Then all that is required to perform permanent
cure is, to prevent taking cold. Exercise about
the rooms as much possible, eat all the richest
food-fatmeat, game, and, in fact, anything the
appetite Graves; but be particular and masticate

For restoring hair upon bald heads (from what

will force the beard to grow upon the smoothest

ING that will force or hasten the growth of the

are we to distinguish the genuine from the spuri-

YOUNG LADY returning to her coun

4 YOUNG LADY returning to her coun-
n try home, after sojourn of few months
in the City, was hardly recognized by herfricnds.
In place ola coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had
soft ruby complexion of almost marble smooth
ness, and instead Of twenty-three she really ap-
peared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the
cause Of SO great change, she plainly told them
that she used the Circassian Balm and con-
sdered it an invaluable acquisition to any Lady S
toilet. By its use any Lady or Gentleman can
improve their personal appearance an hundred
fold. 1t is simple in its combination, as Nature
herselfis simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in
drawing impurities from, also healing, cleansing
and identifying the skin and complexion By its
direct action on the cuticle it draws from it all
its impurities, kindly healing the same, and leav
ing the surface as Nature intended it should be,

no THE FARMERS OF THE


e The undersigned, appeals in behalf of the
starving peopleof South Carolina--his native
State-to the farmers and all other persons hav-
ing corn for sale in the Valley and the adjacent
country, to sell and deliver to him their surplus
corn at the earliest practicable moment. 1t is i'm
peratively necessary that corn should be gotten
to these people at once in order that they may be
saved from actual starvation, as they failed al
most entirely in corn crop themselves and
supplies from other sources are cut off by the al
most unprecedented condition of the country
roads and the interruption of Railroad commu-
nication by the washing away Of bridges, &c.
The appeal is not for contributions; propose
to pay the market pric, in cash upon the deliv-
cry of the corn, and will hope that a humane
people will not horde up the necessaries of life
from their furnishing countrymen. Much good
may be done by the immediate delivery, Of SO
bushels by each farmer, if he cannot deliver
more.
