CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
SCHENCK's PULMoNIC SYRUP,
SCHRNCK's SEA WEED Tonic.

SCHENCKs MANDRAKE PILLS
Are the only medicines that will cure Pulmonary
Consumption.
Frequently medicines that will stop a cOIgh will
ccasion the death of the patient; they lock up the
iverstop the circulation of the blood, hemOrrhage
follows and in fact,they clog the action of the very
Or-ans 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, con-
stpation, coated tongue, pain in the shoulderblade
feelings OF drow-iness and restlessness, the food,
lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied with
acidity and belching up Of wind.
These symptoms usually originated from disor-
dered condi ion of the stomach or torpid liver.
Persons affected, II they take one or two heavy
colds, and if the congh 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 are mass OF sores, and
liberated, the re ult of which is death.
Sehencks Pulmonic Syrup is an expectorant which
does not contain OPIUM or anything calculated TO
check q couIh suddenly.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dssOlves the food
mixes with the gastric juices of the stomach, aids
digestion and creates a raVenous appetite.
When the bowels are cOsttve skin sallow, or the
symptom otherwise of a bilious tendency ,SChenck
Mandrake Pills are required.
These medicines are prepared only by

"Wednesday night it was announced that tn
temperance camp-meeting had closed. but to-
day excursonlsts from Yarmouth and Cum
berland came and ''set up" one of the most in
teresting meetings of the season. 1--WE forgot to
mention that half dozen of the Alfred Shak-
ers participated in the exercises Wednesday
night About 1000 people were present. M.
&. Palmer, Esq, presided. Rev. Mr. Day of
Biddeford, offered prayer and made a short
address. He was followed by Hon S. P Ben
son OF Yarmouth, who made very interesting
address, which was interrupted by fierce dog
fight in the middle of the auditorium. Mr..
Benson was followed by Owen B. Chadbourn,
Esq, of Saco, who made spirited address,
Mrs. Darlington then came TO the front and
made one of her powerful actresses, arguing
for prohibition in very strong terms. She said
that it was no use for a man to talk temper
ance and then go and vote for rum If the
men believe in temperance why don't they
show it when they go to the polls
AT half past two the forenoon crowd was
considerably augmented by the arrival of an
excursion from Lowell, Mass. Mr. Palmer
presided again in the afternoon. After the open
ing hymn, Rev. Mr.. Strout of Elliot, offered
prayer and made very fine address.
Mrs. Darlington again addressed the multi
tude. She gave some good advice to the
women about their duty in this great work.
We have always thought Mrs. Darlington to be
a fine speaker but yesterday she fairly outdid
herself. The audience showed their appreciation
OF her rem arks by continued applause. Capt
II. IL. Burbank of Limerick, was the aext
speaker He wanted the women to vote very
much for he thought they could help in getting
law to stop the sale of intoxicating liquor,
including wine aud cider. He gave Mains
native wines hard rap Mr.. VIM Drew of
Washington, D @, spoke next. He gave an
interesting account of the work in his place.
He said they had reform club in that city OF
over 1900 members He was one of the fines f
speakers we have yet had the pleasure of listen
ing to, and his address was one of the best vet
delivered. Mr.. Palmer then opened the meet
ing for five.minute speeches, Messrs. o. B.
Chadbourn, Smith, Gerschaum and Hatch
filling the time very ably.
The Allen Mission had meeting at o'clock
in their tent, and the ladies had meeting at
the same hour in the Biddeford tent, presided
over by Mrs. Geddes of Adrian, Mich And so
mas closed this great temperance camp meeting
Although the regular meeting closed Wednesday
and yesterdays was an entirely imDromptu af-
ar, we. we cannot help saying that it was one
OF the peasantest meetings they have held

MANY who are suffering from the effects of the
warm weather and are debated are advised by ply
sicians to take moderate amounts of whskey two or
three times during the day. In little while those
who adopt this advice frequently increase the num-
Der of "drinks," and in time become confirmed in
ebrates. A beverage which will not create list
for intoxicating liquors, and which is intended espe-
cally for the bene OF debilitated persons whether
at home or abroad, is Dr.. Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic
Containing the juices OF many medicinal herbs this
preparation does not create an appetite for the in
toxicating cup. The nourishing and the life-sup-
porting properties of many valuable natural produc-
have the most strengthening influence. A single
bottle of the Tonic will demonstrate its valuable
qualities. For debility arising from sickness, over
exertion or from any cause whatever, wine gassful
Of Sea Weed Tonic taken after meals Will strengthen
the stomach and create an appetite for wholesome
food. To all who about leaving their homes, we
desire to say that the excellent effects of DIR,
Schencks seasonabe remedies, Sea Weed Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills. are particularly evident when taken
by those who are injurousy affected by change oil
water and diet No person should leave home with
out taking supply of these safeguards along. For
