DR.. ScHENcK's PULMosIo 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 adver-
tised as cures for Consumption, probably con-
tain opium, which is somewhat dangerous
drug in all cases. and If taken freely by con-
sumptiye patients, il must do great injury;
for its tendency is to contine the morbid mat
ter in the system, which. Of course, must
make a cure impossible. Schenck' s Pulmonic
SyruP is warranted not 10 contain particle
OF opium. II is composed Of powerful but
harmless herbs, which act on the lungs, liver,
stomach, aud blood, and thus correct all NOR
bid secretions. and expel all the diseased mat
ter from the body. These are the only means
by which Consumption can be cured, and as
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea W eed Tonic,
and Mandrake Pills are the only medicines
which operate in this way, it is Obvious they
are the only genuine cure Tor pulmonary
Consumption. Each bottle Of this invaluable
medicine is accompanied by full directions.

sister of the countess. In the early
queenhood of Victoria the sister men
toned was maid of honor. Gay and
thoughtless, the young girl had a free.
dom of manner which gave the gossips
of the day an opportunity, all too well
abused, Of blackening her fame, which
had been tarnishe by no criminal act of
hers. The Queen hardened to the SLAM
der, and banished the beautiful but in
discreet girl from her household. The
falsity Of the scandal was shown, but not
until the poor, dishonored maid of honor
had died of broken heart The Coun-
tess of Loudon blamed the Queen for
her sisters untimely fate, and determ-
ined to revenge that sisters wrongs.
Never after did she appear at court, and
upon every royal fete day kept close i'm
INJURED. Her post mortem pursuit OF the
Queen is ghastly but impotent.

How Master nd servant Exchanged
Places.

Places.
When gambling was at its hight in
France during the speculative period of
Law 8 famous schemes, a roturier, sud-
denly enriched by speculation, is riding
in his carriage. The footman behind,
somewhat disturbed on account of the
non payment of his wages, putting his
head through the windows at the back OF
the coach, begs his master not to forget
to pay him his dues.
dHow much is it, La Fleur2" asks the
master.
Zone hundred and twenty-five livres,
may it please Monsieur"
"All right, here it is, and the master
spread the currency of the period on
the cushions of the carriage. Now, La
Fleur, have you a pack of cards with
your
Certainly" replied the obsequious
lackey, producing the cards at once.
Every good. Now, l will be banker,
and you shall play against me / shall
take the front seat, the back one will
serve for our table, you can look through
the back window, and we can have a
coy game" and so the card-playing
commenced.
Luck first turned for the master; little
by little the footman's hundred and
twenty-five livres went, until they were
reduced to FIVE; then capricious fortune
took the opposite course, and La Fleur
won all his masters money. Piqued at
his losses, the master now wagered a
horse, which the lackey won; then the
pair OF horses, next the harness, and
lastly the carriage. The footman won
everything.
Ny watch now, if you say SO, said
his master, against a horse in the
stable at home; or, if lose, you shall
take my place inside the carriage, apd l
will get up behind. Agreed2 The King
is for me-the queen for you l have
lost. Get in La Fleur. You shall ride,
and / will get up behind" and the ex-
change of places was made.

Lndv Loudon,s Undyinr Hate.

In the will Of the Countess of Loudon
who died in England recently, was found
a clause directing that her right hand be
cut of and buried in the park at Castle
bennington, at the bend of the hill to
the Trent, with a small cross over it,
bearing the motto, II hyde my tyne. !"
The explanation of this singular request
shows that the countess, who had been a
lifelong enemy of Queen Victoria, de-
sired to carry her implacable hatred Of
Victoria beyond the grave. The place
of burial mentioned overlooks one Of the
Queens country seats. The skeleton
with its threatening epitaph was meant
to point its slow unwavering finger at
the Queen, reminding her of the injus-
tice done long years ago to q younger

A FRENCH REPORTER.

The Paris Figaro makes the following
amusing story of Parisian reporter the
pretext for a new reference to the man
who swallowed fork:
1--WE might call by name the reporter
who, on account Of his profession, is found
everywhere where news is to be had,
names to be mentioned, a scandal to be
told, or festival to be described. Only
this reporter likes to pretend that he
goes to these places by reason OF Curl
osity or invitations and not for profess
sional reasons. In word, he is ashamed
of his business, and breads to betray it
by taking out of his pocket, as do his
brothers, the necessary notebook.
SO what does he dor He arms his
right hand with a microscopic pencil,
and, without seeming to do so, he writes
upon his left cuff the impressions which
are to serve as the canvas for his descrip-
tive arabesques. At first his washerwo-
man was surprised at the sight of this
cuff, covered with hieroglyphics. twas
