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, II taken before the lungs are destroyed o
speedy cure is effected.
To these three medicines DIR. J. SCHENCK, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of Pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
In the lungs; nature throws it off by an easy ex-
pectoration, for when the phlegm or matter is
ripe slight cough will throw 1t of, the patient
has rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this, Schen-
ck's Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
must be freely used to cleanse the stomach and
liver. Schenck's Mandrake Pills act on the liver,
removing all distractions, relax the gall bladder,
the bile starts freely and the liver is soon reiev
ed.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is gentle stimulant
and Alternative; the alkali of which it composed
mixes with the food and prevents souring, II
assists the digestion by toning up the stomach to
healthy condition, so that the food and the Pull
monic syrup will make good blood; then the lungs
heal and the patent will surely get well if care Is
taken to prevent fresh cold.

sonally or by letter, do at his principle Office

WHAT WAS THE ANCIENT AMERICAN
-: sE| e z INDTANr

The historic period of these nations
is extremely short, and in studying
them the first significant fact We en-
counter 10 the extreme gloom which
covers their existence before the white
man came to record their characteris-
tics. The almost entire absence of
tradition among most of them, and
the mythical character Of what tradi-
tions they do have, are proof Of their
low intellectual condition. Unlike
the myths Of ancient story, no long
lapse of time hallows their tales of
miracles and heroes, throwing
them back to times when the hui
man race was in. its infancy. The
wonderful occurrences to which some
tribes refer their origin are placed on
.lya little way back in point Of time
from the'present. Whether this springs
from the inability to carry enumeration
beyond the elementary numbers, or
whether it is due to condition OF
such low intellectual development
! that the existence Of heroes and oc-
currence of miracles is still thought
possible, the fact is equally signi6-
cant. Professor Owen contends that
the red man hunted over this CONT
nent when the Pharaohs were build
ing the Pyramids and if he can es-
> tablish that assertion, he will find in
the Indians extreme mental feeble
ness after 50 many ages of tribal ex-
istence sufficient proof of that painful
slowness in development for which he
argues. If the Indian, with his child's
understanding, is the product Of many
thousand years Of progress, we may
well trust the hypothesis that the
civilized races Of man are of a stock
which went through its development
out of barbarism seons before the his
toric period was reached.
Little remains to indicate what the
Indians status was before the white
man began to influence him 80 power
fully, but in the rather doubtful dis
coveries which the early travellers
were able to make in the face Of his
Jealous secrecy, there are some signi-
fcant points concerning his govern
ment, religion, and morals.-The
Galazy for January.
