Consmmption Can ne cured.

SCHENCK's PulmOnic Syrup, Schenck's Sea Weed
Tonic Schenck's Mandrake Pills, are the only
medicines that will cure Pulmonary Consumption.
Frequently medicines that will stop cough will
occasion the death of the patient they lock up the
liver stop the circulation of the blood, hemorrhage
follows and, in fact, they clog the action of the
very organs That caused the cough.
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes of
two-thirds of the cases of Consumption. Many
persons complain of dull pain in the SIDE consti-
PATTON coated tongue, pain in the shoulder blade,
feelings of drowsiness and restlessness, the food
lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied with
acidity and belching up of wind.
These symptoms usually originate from disor-
dered condition of the stomach or torpid liver.
Persons so affected if they take one or two heavy
colds and if the cough in these cases be suddenly
checked, will find the stomach and liver clogged,
remaining torpid and inactive, and, almost before
they are aware, the lungs a mass of sores and
liberated, the result of which is death.
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup is an expectorant
which does not contain opium or anything calcu-
lated IT, check cough suddenly.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dssolves the food,
mixes with the gastric juices of the stomach, aids
digestion and creates ravenous appetite.
Whenthe bowels are costive, skin sallow, or the
symptoms otherwise of bilious tendency,
Schenck's Mandrake Pills are required.
These medicines are prepared only by J. II.

masonry that incloses the spring. In the
two most southwestern corners of this
Enclosure, which is all octagon, are two
holes, each about three inches in circum-

shrew-mouse made its appearance in front
Of the hole nearest to me, seeming to be
earnestly in search of something. After
encircling its threshold for short time it
proceeded around the wall. Presently, to
my great surprise, heard scream, and
on looking up perceived that it had en-
countered large toad. At first the shrew
seemed unwilling to make an attack, and
returned short distance; but at this
time, as if its courage was renewed, it re-
traced its steps, and leaplng over the toad
seized it by one of its hind legs. The
toad made no show of fight, but, striving
to escape, put forth those pitiful screams
that would have moved the heart of any
one to its rescue but of one whose curl
osity was not yet satisfied. When the
shrew had wearied its prey the former
undertook to carry the latter into the near
est hole; bat this was impossible, as the
shrew had cut the cavity in the wall to
fit itself and not the toad, which was
larger round by two inches. When sew
eral unsuccessful attempts had been made
to carry the toad into this diningroom
the latter succeeded in getting free, but
was soon recaptured and taken back to
undergo the same treatment, the shrew
no doubt thinking that it had swollen it.
self to prevent being carried through the
threshold entrance; but unfortunately for
the shrew the toad's frame was too large.
Finding it impossible to accomplish its
purpose at this corner, the shrew dragged
its prey (Which by this time seemed to
have given up all hope of escape) to the
next hole, and laying it near the entrance
ran quickly to and fro several times, as if
seeking place to put it. The shrew now
commenced again the task to take toad
that measured five inches around into
hole that was only three inches in circum-
ference; but this being of no avail it
seemed as if to say: 10 take supper in
my dining-room this evening is impossi-
bic, so will enjoy it the best can out in
the cool porch" And so it did, for it
gnawed Off and devoured one of the hind
legs of the living toad, when set the lat
ter free to spend the remainder of its life
with only three legs. During the whole
of this scutfle, which lasted about half an
hour, the toad screamed most pitifully.-

The Flood i'm India.

Accounts of the recent flood in India
represent that in Allahabad and its neigh
borhood at least III lives were lost and
2,42S cattle drowned The number of
houses ruined amounts to 10,024, and up
ward of 4,200 tons of grain were sub
merged in subterranean storehouses and
rotted before the floods subsidized About
$4,000 acres of growing crops have been
destroyed. This loss is altogether due to
the OVERLOOKING of the rivers, and the flo
ures do not include the injury done by
the heavy rainfall, which prevented the re.
building of the huts and the sowing of the
bajra. The loss is estimated at e145, 900.
From other parts of Northern India, too,
there come tales of calamities little short
of those of Allahabad At Chuar about
one-third of the native town was swept
away and nearly all the houses of the poor
Europeans in the lower section were de-
stroyed. The railroads suffered severely.
In Benares, Ghazepoore, Mirzapore and
Azimghur, in the northwestern provinces,
villages and crops have been seriously in
iured. Nor have Bengal and Assam es.
capped. Large tracts have been submerged.
In Burmah there have been heavy floods
at Prone and Thaytemoo, but beyond
sweeping away roads they appear to have
done no great damage.
