DR.. SCHENCK'S
Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic,
and Mandrake Pills.

These medicines have undoubtedly performed more
cures of Consumption than any other remedy known
to the American public. They compounded OF
vegetable ingredients, and contain nothing which
can be injurious to the human constitution
Other remedies advertised as cures for COnsump-
ton, probably contain opium which is a somewhat
dangerous drug IN all cases, and if taken freely by
consumptiye patients, it must do great injury; for
its tendency is to contine the morbid matter in the
system, which, of course must make cure impo5-
sibe.
schencks Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not to con-
tain particle OF opium 1t is composed Of powerful
but harmless herbs, which act on the lungs, liver,
stomach and blood, and thus correct all morbid
cretions, and expel all the diseased matter from the
body These are the only means by which consump
ton can be cured, ana as Schencks PuImonic syrup

medicines Which operate i'll this way, it is obvious

A number Of citizens held meeting
last night in the Harmony Rooms, to

growing evil in our city, which consists in
the manufacture of common cigars in tene-
ment-houses, in the most populated sections
Of the city. These houses are rented by
manufacturers, and then the single dwell

to carry ont the trade in these houses, in
stead in factories as heretofore, which
were adapted for the purpose The new
system Is adopted with the purpose, to
reduce the price for labor, in some in
to fifty percentum. This robbery on
ly could be executed in this manner, because
it was shrewdly calculated that the poor
victims would, and must willingly increase
their time Of toll to about eighteen hours
a day, TO make good the shortcomings ii
their wages besides the assistance they
migi nress out Of the help Of wife and

A previously appointed committee re-
ported about the state Of health they found
these people in. According to the state
ment, the children mostly suffer from want
Of pure air, and the inhalIng Of the narcotic
odor of large quantities OF moist tobacco.
In several instances they found that small
box had found its way there, and the
I" Board Of Health had to interfere. In
all cases the houses were packed from eel.

filth predominating, because no time for
cleaning or washing can be gained, except
by a loss Of the few sleeping hours

IL the Editor Of the WoRKNGuASs ADVOCATE
The men in Shensngo Valley are at last
arousing themselves, and | think have ta-
ken a step or two IN the right direction.
On Thursday, Aug. 9th, there was a mass
meeting held at the Five Points, near Ne
shamrock, in this county. There were up
wards of five hundred men present. The
object OF the meeting was to take into
consideration some resolutions passed by
operators at a meeting III Philadelphia
The coal and iron operators were expected
to have met with the men, but owing to
some mistake 1t appears that the majority
OF them were not notified, so We al journed
to meet on Tuesday, Aug. IL and the
county secretary was instructed to notify
every operator in the valley to meet us ca
mdsse on that date, at 10A ". The meet
ing was opened BY Christopher Evans,
vice-president Of the county of the NJ MA.
This was one of the best meetings have
seen for some years. There must have been
between five and six hundred men, pres
ent. They were the intelligent part Of this
great mining region. There were tn rec
the leading operators present. Mr.. Wheeler
iron and coal operator, spoke at some length
and made several suggestions, whereby the
miners and the bosses would be more close
ly allied to each other. He said he would
be most happy to meet us to discuss those
matters for our mutual benefits. Mr.. Orms-
by, coal operator, said he had always been
down on unions, but since he had come
to the meeting he had changed his mind
The intelligence shown by various miners
who addressed the meeting. and after hear
ing some Of the principles Of the miners ma
tional association, he rather liked it, and
would use all his influence and ability to
try to get the miners and operators on
more amicable terms with each other. and
he was willing to do anything for the well
fare of both parties. Here are some Of
the resolutions passed
Resolved, That each lodge or bank elect
committee Of two to draw up basis Of prices
on the principle Of the sliding scale, to be
submitted to the operators for their consid-

Resoired, That each lodge or bank hne
team to take all members who are eligible to
become citizens of Mercer county, to take out
their papers.
Resolved, That we vote only for those Con
gressmen who will pledge themselves to urge
a protective tariff and free banking.
The operators present pledged their hon
or to use their influence with the rest of
the operators to have basis of wages
fixed similar to that in the anthracite re-
gions.
the fact Of the matter is the Miners Ma
tiOnal Association is beginning to make it.

The Schenectady Locomotive Works, at
Schenectady, have been closed until furth-
er notice.
The puddlers and helpers of the Altoona
and Holidaysburg rolling mills held ameet-
ing at the latter place few days ago. and
unanimously resolved not to accept any re-
duction of wages below Harrisburg prices
1t was proposed to reduce them from IS. rs
to b per ton, to take effect on the LIST Of
July.
The strike among the glass blowers Of
Pittsburg, Pa, which has been continued
about year, is now at an end, and the va
rious manufactures are resuming business
The strike was caused by proposed reduc-
ton Of wages, the Eastern establishments
being able to manufacture glass cheaper
than it could be done here. The men are
now willing to resume work at a reduction
Of about twenty per cent. below former
prices. In a short time all the manufac
tories will be in full operation.
The iron safe works at Canton, Ohio, en-
ploy 255 men, and are said to be the most
extensive safe and vault works in the coun-
try. They recently sent to Boston, SIX
large iron vaults weighing ten tons each,
which will protect the valuables of some of
our Boston merchants.
The Workingmdn, under date Of August
10, rays:
The question what shall be the basis for
1875 is becoming, and very properly, de-
batable one Thus far the opinion is
unanimously expressed that the figures now
paid are few enough, and that reduction
from them is not called for by the require
ments of the operator, and should not be
listened to by themen."
