SPECIAL NOTICE.

DIR. ScHENcK's PULMoNIo SYRUP. SEA WEED
Tonic, AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These medi-
cines have undoubtedly performed more cures
Of Consumption than any other remedy known
to the American public. They are COM
pounded OF vegetable ingredients. and con-
tain nothing which can be injurious to the
human constitution. Other remedies adyer-
tised as cures for Consumption. probably con-
tain opium, which is somewhat dangerous
drug in all cases. and If taken freely by con-
sumptive patients, it must do great injury;
for its tendency is to confine the morbid mat
ter in the system, which. of course; must
make cure impossible. Schenck's Pulmonlc
Syrup is warranted not to contain particle
Of opium. 1t is composed of powerful but
harmless herbs, which act on the lungs. liver,
stomach, and blood. and thus correct all NOR
bid secretions. and expel albthe diseased mat
ter from the body. These are the only means
by which Consumption can be cured; and as
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic.
and Mandrake Pills are the only medicines
which operate in this way, it is obvious they
are the only genuine cure for Pulmonary
Consumption. Each bottle Of this invaluable
medicine is accompanied by full directions:
DR.. Schenck is professionally at his principal
office, corner Sixth and Arch streets, Phila-
delphia, every Monday, where all letters for
advice must be addressed 7g-eod-l0l

what CONSTITUTES womanIlnes,

Are weakness of body and mind help.
lessness, shallowness of thought and
knowledge, frivoity of taste and pursuit,
absorption in the art of men pleasing
are these, indeed, the essential charac-
teristics of womanhood, and is she who
combines them the type of the
perfect woman, nobly planned;
To cheer, to comfort, to command?
We must look for the answer somewhat
deeper than the surface and conven-
tional rules of society, and, going to the
constitution of things, ask ourselves
what special functions woman has to
perform in this world as woman, apart
from the functions common to all human
beings in virtue of their humanity. That
function is motherhood. 1t is in her
motherliness that we find her womanli-
ness. She may not be, or ever become,
mother, but she cannot be a perfect
woman unless she possess all the attri
butes which belong to perfect motherhood
What, then, are these attributes. First on
the list stands tenderness; the mother
must, above all things, be tender and
pitiful, for her love is the highest type OF
human tenderness, the truest symbol oi
the divine. Next comes strength; the
mother must be strong and helpful, for
how else shall she protect and guide the
helpless lives clinging to her? She
must be pure, not only with the purity
which is ignorance, but with the purity
which, knowing evil, abhors it, for is she
not the representative to her children oI
divine purity2 She must be true, for il
her children find their trust in her de-
ceived, in whom else viii they have
faith2 She must be lover and pro
moter of order, for order in the family
is like law in the without it there
is only anarchy and confusion. She
must be Just, for children have a keen
sense of justice, and win pay respectful
and cheerful obedience only to the rule
they feel to be Just. She must be self
controlling and self-forgetting, for she
cannot rule her children unless she
can rule herself, and she cannot
have that perfect sympathy with
them that shares aud lives
in their life, unless she can forget her
self. She must have high ideal; for
how else shall she inspire her children
with the love and worship of q good
ness, justice and beauty transcending
that of earth2 And, finally, she must
be crowned with wisdom; for her love
must give light as well as warmth; she
must be able to guide as well as to cher.
ish. This is the type Of the perfect
mother, and therefore it is the type Of
the perfect woman. Here, then, VIC
have the standard We wanted, and may
lay down as the rule, whose application
