CONSUMPTION.


The Three Remedies. "Scbenck's Pulm onic
Syrup" for the cure of Coughs Colds, Bronchitis,
and every form Of Consumption. The peculiar
action of this medicine ripens the ulcers in the
lungs, promotes the discharge of the corrupt
matter By expeotoration, purifies the blood and
thus cures Consumption, when every other rem
edy fails.
..schenok's seaweed Tonic" for the cure of
Dyspepsia Indg estion, and all diseases aris
ing from debility. This tonic invigorates the
digestive organs, supplies the place of the gas
trio juice hen that is deficient, and then enable,
the patient to digest the most nutritious food 1t
is sovereign remedy for all cases of indiges
ton.
"Schenck's Mandrake Pills" one of the most
valuable medicines ever discovered, being a veg
stable substitute for calomel, and having all the
useful properties ascribed to that mineral, with
out producing any Of its injurious effects.
To these three medicines DIR. j. II. Schenck,
Philadelphia, owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of Pulmonic Consumption. The Pull
monio Syrup ripens the morbid matter dis
charges it, and purifes the blood. The Mandrake
PILE act upon the liver, remove all distinctions
therefrom, give the organ healthy tone, and
cure Liver Complaint, which is one of the most
prominent causes of Consumption.
The Sea Weed Tonic invigorates the powers of
the stomach, and by Strengthening the digestion
and bringing il to a normal and healthy condi-
ton improves the quality of the blood, by which
means the formation of ulcers tubercles in the
lGngs becomes impossible. The combined action
of these medicines, as thus explained, will cure
every case of Consumption, if the remedies are
used in time and the use of them is persevered
in sufficiently to bring the case to a favorable
termination.

One of the minor points involved in the
reconstruction of South Carolina was al
attempt to cut the State up into townships,
after the fashion of New England. This has
been abandoned as practicable, the differ
ence between the section rendering highly
inapplicable in South Carolina o system
which works well in Massachusetts. Anoth.
subsidiary point of reconstruction was the
abolition OF wha. was once known as the
State Guard, an armed force about one
company kept on foot in Richmond to pro.
tect the public buildings and guard the
penitentisry. Among the frat measures of
the Virginia Legislature we note o bill to
restore this force, its absence indisputably
proving the necessity for its existence
These two incidents are small things to be
sure-mere strsws-but they furnish preg
nant proofs, were any needed, of how thor
oughly ignorant the reconstructed govern
ments of the South are of the real condition
or needs of the communities where they are
established. Even where they mean wei
and can be given the credit of honestl,
seeking improvement, they are so utterl
out Of accord with their surroundings tina
they hlunder and do harm.

ROSADALIy


"Lifs Of the flesh Is IN the Blood"
The blood circulates throughout the system
depositing new flesh, tissue aud muscle, as tn.
ord becomes effete and disappears. If the ne
material be eoraupt and unsound, it is evident
that the system will not perform its duties well
some part or another will be like ill-ftting ma
chinery, that works unevenly, and cresks and
wears out of shape. In this way the body be
comes tho seat of suffering and disease. A.
these are but the effects of impure blood, 1t II
evident that t. the blood the mode of mas
he directed 1t is hare that the "Rosadalis" has
its value and reputation. t purifes the blood

robust constitution, even where hope Of relief ha
