DR.. SCHENCK'S STANDARD REMEDIES.

The standard remedies for all diseases of the lungs
are SCHENCk'S PULMoNIC SYRUP, SCHENCK's SEA
WEED Tonic, and SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS,
and if taken before the lungs destroyed, speedy
cure is effected.
To these three medicines DIR. j. II. Schenck of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivaed in the treat
ment of pulmonary diseases
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in
the lungs nature throws it off by easy eXpectora
ton, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight
cough will throw it Off, the patient has rest and the
lungs begin to heal.
10 allow the Pulmonc Syrup to do this, Schenck's
Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic must
be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver
schencks Mandrake Pills act on the liver removing
all distinctions, relax the gall bladder the bile
starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved
Schencks SeaWeed Tonic is Il gentle stimulant
and Alternative; the alkali of which it is composed
mixes with the food and prevents souring. it as
sists the digestion, by tOning up the stomach to IL
healthy condition. SO that the food and liulmonic,
Syrup will make good blood; then the lungs heals
and the patient will surely get well if care is taken
to prevent fresh cold.
Dr. Schenck can be consulted at the Quincy House,
Boston, on Wednesday, Mar. 25th, Apr 9th and 22d,
May 18th and 9th
Advice will be given free, but for a thorough eN-
animation with the Respiromeer, the charge is
$500.

throughout the country.

says There is no objection, so far as
We are aware, to such a treaty. provided
II IS really a treaty that gives equivalent
advantages to both parties. In spite Of
the opinion 50 confidently expressed, we
do not think the treaty OF 1854 was of mu-
tual advantage to the United States and
the colonies, and we are unable to see
what we could gain in the way Of u mar
ket by reyiving it. There were fifty two
articles and classes of articles which were
made recip.ocally free of duty by the
treaty of 1894. OF these Canada now adj
mits thirty-six articles and classes free,
without a treaty. What are the remain
ing articles ? The following is list :
Animals, butter, cheese, lard, meats,
poultry, tallow, fruits, plants, seeds,
shrubs, trees, vegetables. products of fish,
fish oil. These, with the exception of fruits
and vegetables, we are not in the way of
selling to Canada, as she has in general
more to sell than she needs to buy Fish
and fish products of all kinds, we may add
are made reciprocally free by the treaty
OF Washington, SO that there is no occa-
SION for us to make treaty on account of
! that trade. Let Canada propose to put
| cotton, wooden and iron goods into reel

herself to articles of which she produces

Transportation Convention at Rock Island,
March oath. 1874

The question of cheap transportation is
agltatrng the whole country more or less.
Great efforts are being made for govern
ment and at the east and at the south
The Northwest has very great interest
in this question.
Now is our time to move, and to do so
effectually we must meet and counsel to-
gether, and then devise measures for con-
centratlng our strength upon some speci-
tied plan for relief from high rates of
freight from the Mississippi to the Allan
tic seaboard.
The undersigned recently attended a
Cheap Transportation Convention at
W ashlngton, as delegate from the State
OF Illinois, by appointment of the State
Farmers Association, and concluded that
there is little hope of Congress, at this
session, undertaking any important meas
ures Tor relieving the people of the Mis-
slsslppi Valley from the burden of high
rates OF treights. Prominent among 9th
er reasons, tor this conclusion, is the fact
that there are so many schemes for govern
ment aid in building canals and improving
lakes and rivers, as we'll as railways, invol-
wing such an enormous expenditure of
money in their construction as to deter our
representatives from the undertaking.
There must be concentration and combi-
nation of large numbers upon some few
leading channels of commerce if we ever
expect to accomplish anything of import
ance in making cheap rates for freights
from the Mississippi to the seaboard.
1t this cannot be done, we may as well
abandon all idea of having cheap transpor-
tation, and seek such other relief as may
be possible.
Believing that such combination can be
and will be effectual. the undersigned has,
since the convention at W ashington in Jan
uary last, had intercourse and correspon-
dence with many prominent friends of
cheap transportation in various localities,
who advise the holding of convention for
the Northwestern States at Rock Island, to
devise ways and means for securing cheap
transportation from the Mississippi to the
Atlantic seaboard.
In accordance with their request such a
