The Valley Of Discomfort.


Rasselas was not happy in his valley. The
philosophical Pantagruel had his hours of
objectless discomfort Fatima was uneasy
until she had looked into the closet-and then
she became uncasier. Pandora must needs
open the box. Even the seers, Mahomet, Swe-
denborg, and others, fastened back to earth
after taking cursory view Of. heaven. The
bearing of this platitudinous preface will
appear later.
A year or two since there appeared in these
columns under the plagialzed title 'Sleepy
Hollow" an account of little village in the
northwestern corner of York county, one of
those hamlets very scarce now, the roofs of
which that Asmodeus without the limp, the
Spirit of the Age, had left untouched. He
and Time had forgotten the place. 1t was

shire hills, shaded by great trees, rich in old
houses and those single ruins found in decay

a man might grow rich and mellow like win.
ter pear packed in bran, or altogether rust out,
according to his temperament and disposition.
The people were happy. doing their daily work,
sleeping at night the sleep of peace, watching
with passionless interest the turmoil and
strife of the outer world.
All this has changed. To them lately en-
tered, in the guise of daily mail, the Devil of
Unrest, and they have fallen from their high
estate. Their chief glory, the idyllic life, has
become to them a reproach. The exasper.
atng reflection has seized them that they
are no. as other people. The gospel of I'M
rest is making its way among them, and
every commercial runner is its apostle. The
cry OF old Athens is ever ringing in
their ears One day they puzzle themselves
over the Herzegovina; next day a batch of
Washington rumors sets them all agog; another
day some new horror in the ever-multiplying
nastiness of the criminal record affronts their
ears. Time was whea some great piece of

SCHENCK's PULMoNIC SYRUP, SEA WEED TONIC
brated and popular medicines have effected reyo-
luton in the healing art, and proved the faacy of
several naxims which have for many years obstruct-
ed the progress efmedical science The false suppo
sition that Consumption is ncurable" deferred ply
scians from attempting to find remedies for that dis
ease, and patients afflicted with it reconced them
selves to death without making an effort to escape
from doom which they supposed to be unavoidable.
1t IS now proved however, that Consumption can be
cured and that it has been cured in very great
number Of cases some of them apparently desperate
ones) by Schenck's Pumonic Syrup alone; and in
other cases by the same medicine IN connection with
Schencks Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, one
BOTH according to the requirements of the case.
DIR. Schenck himself. who enjoyed uninterrupted
good health for than forty years, was supposed,
at time be at the very gate of DEATH his ply
sicians having pronounced his case hopeless, and
abandoned him to his fate. He was cured by the
aforesaid medicines, and, since his recovery, many
thousands similarly affected have used DIR. Schencks
preparations with the same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, making it not alb
soutely necessary to personally see Dr. Schenck I'M
less patients wish their lungs examined and for this
purpose he is professionally at his principal office,
Corner Sixth and Arch Sts Philadelphia, every
Monday, where all letters for advice must be adj
dressed. Schenck's medicines are sold by all drug
gists.
