DIR. ScHEyCK's PuLMoNIc SYRUP, SEA
WEED Tonic AND MANDRAKE Pn1s.-These med.
icipes have undoubtedly performed more cures OF
Consumption than any otner remedy known to the
American public. They are compounded of vcge-
table ingredients and contain nothing which can
be injurious to the human constitution. Other
remedies advertised as cures for Consumption
probably contain opium, which is a somewhat
dangerous drug In all csses, and, if taken freely
by consumptive patients, 1t must do great injury;
FOR its tendency Is to conne the morbid matter in
the system which, of course, must make cure
Impossible. Schenck's Pumonic Syrup is war
ranted not to contain a particle Of opium. 1t is
composed OF powerful but harmless herbs, which
act on the lungs, liver stomach and blood, and
thus correct all morbid secretions and expel all
the diseased matter from the body. These are the
only II cans 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. 1t is obvious they are
the only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consump-
ton. Each bottle of this invaluable medicine Is
accompanied by full directions. DR.. Schenck IL

-four paste. Except this is done the
mold will appear again, for there is
scarcely anything so difficult to eradicate
ii once it gets hold. If these precautions
were taken every time room is repa-
pered, our bedrooms would be much
more healthy than they now are. A great
improvement would be made in our bed
rooms if the walls behind the skirting-
boards were plastered or cemented down
to the flooring boards, instead of being un-
plastered, thus leaving cavity for the
accumulation Of dust and the harboring
Of mice and other vermin, and the conse-
quent conservation OF bad smells. A very
nice style of decoratinga bedroom is to
paper it with one OF those self-colored pa
pers-that is, paper that has been colored
in the pulp-of which there are many
tints made. II the room is done with one
of these, of suitable tint, and a neat
floral border run around the top and bot,
tom, the result will be pleasing and good
These papers have an advantage over any
other, inasmuch as they have no ground
color upon them. Thus we have less col
oring matter on the walls than by any
paper or other process. Bedroom walls
simply colored with an agreeable tint of
co or and bordered with paper border
are clean looking and healthy IN. y.

Centennial Trash.

ONE of the peculiar outcomes of the
Centennial period has been the passion il
has awakened for all sorts OF old trash.
First of all everybody wanted to get cop
les of old newspapers antedating the
Declaration of Independence so they con
tanned scrap of reference to the struggle
brewingor opened in America. Then the
passion arose for autographs of George
Washington, Thomas jefferson, Patrick
Henry, John Hancock, or anyone prom
ineut or otherwise in the Revolution.
Then came the mania for old chairs that
Washington sat upon. There are al least
10000 of these in existence, so that up 10
a few weeks back there was no difficulty
in meeting the patriotic demand. Then
came the mniverous craving tor anything
a century old that was in any way at
tached TO the Father of his Country-old
pots. old crooks, old hats, old boots.
Anything that was musty enough to look a
century old was fastened on by the pa
triots as relics of Washington.
All this patriotic fervor has led to
lamentable results. People who have al
WAYS had the reputation OF being truthful
and honorable citizens have fallen into
habits of lying shameful to contemplate.
Such one finds In the attic an old dust
covered cooked hat that had been used
years ago in amateur theatricals. He says

Regulate the Bodily Functions.

This advice should be especially needed
by those who suffer from an irregular habit
of body or disorders of the bladder or kid
neys. Inactivity Of the bowels, or of the
urinary organs, is speedily rectiied by that
wholesome apcrient and sterling invigora-
tive diurctic, Hostettcr's Stomach Bitters;
and, as all affections of the organs of dis.
charge have q strong tendency TO becc me
chronic, and that very rapidly, the use the
Bitters should not be delayed a moment
longer than is necessary. The action Of this
differs widely from that of a drastic purga
tive, since it is never violent or abrupt but
always gentle and natural, and its effects
upon the bladder and kidneys are strength
ening as well a mildly stimulative. The
healthful impetus which it gives to diges-
ton also renders it II most desirable general

Liver and Blood Diseases.
By X. Y. PIERCE. NJ. D.. Author of The People
Common Sense Medical Adviser

by Ii. V. FIERCE NJ. u. Author OF The PeOple's
Common Sense Medical Adviser"
A healthy liver secretes each day about
two and half pounds of bile, which con
tains great amount of waste material taken
from the blood. When the liver becomes
torpid or copgested, it fails to eliminate this
vast amount Of noXious substance, which,
therefore, remains to poison the blood, and
be conveyed to every part of the system.
What must be the condition of the blood when
it is receiving and retaining each day two
and half pounds of poison? Nature tries to
work OFT this poison through other channels
and organs-the kidneys, lungs, skim etc,
but these organs become over-taxed in per-
forming this labor in addition to their nat
ural functions, and cannot long withstand
the pressure, but become yariously diseased
The brain, which is the great electrical
center of all vitality, is unduly stimulated
by the unhealthy blood which passes to it
from the heart, and 1T fails to perform its
office healthily. Hence the symptoms Of
bile poisoning, which are dullness, headache,
incapacity to keep the mind on any subject,
impairment OF memory, dizzy, sleepy, or
and irritability of temper. The blood
itself being diseased as it forms
the sweat upon the surface Of the
skin, it is so irritating and poisonous that it
produces discolored brown spots, pimples,
blotches, and other eruptions, sores, boils,

stomach. bowels, and other organs, cannot
escape becoming affected sooner or later,
and we have, as the result costivcness, piles,
dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrhea. Other symp-
toms are common, as bitter or bad taste in
mouth, internal heat. palpitation, teas
ing cough, unsteady appetite, choking SEN
sation in throat, hl0ating of stomach, pain
In sides or about shoulders or back, GOODNESS
of eXtremities, etc, etc. Only few Of the
above symptoms are likely to be present in
any case at one time. The liver being the
great depurating or blood eleanslng organ
of the system. set this great housekeeper
Of our health" at work, and the foul eoirup-
tons which gender in the blood and rot out
