SCHENCK's PULMoNIC SYRUP, SEA WEED Tonic
AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These deservedly cele-
brated and popular medicines have effected a revo-
luton in the healing art, and proved the faacy of
several maxms which have for many years obstruct-
ed the progress of medical science. The false suppo
siion that Consumption is ncurabe" deferred ply
sicians from attempting to find remedies for that di
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 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 Pulmonic Syrup alone; and in
other cases by the same medicine in connection with
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, one
or both according to the requirements of the case.
DIR. Schenck himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted
good health for more than forty years. supposed
at one tme to be at the very gate of DEATH his ply
scians 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 Dr. Schencks
preparations with the same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, making it not alb
solutely 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.

The Problem, of Life,

City Hall was about two-thirds filled last
evening, on the occasion Of Theodore Tilton's
lec!ure on ''The Problem of Life" The speak
er appeared on the platform at a little pas.
eight o'clock, and was welcomed by applause.
Careless,y throwing aside his hat and overcoat
he advanced to the front of the stage and began
his lecture in an easy and graceful manner
Mr.. Tilton began by observing that the PROB
lem of life, of which he woull treat, was not
that which Huxley, with his theories of pro-
toplasm, vainly sought tc solve, but was that
one which was as old as the ages, unsettled as
the sea, and yet ever vital as human nature.
For he supposed that every man had the same
fair share of human experience; that is every
man who had gone far enough into life to feel
the burden and heat of the day. Every man
who stood at the altar of his marriage; and
looked into the cradles of his children, and laid
away his dead in hallowed graves-every such
man in the hurly-hurly of everyday life asked
himself what was the function, the mystery,
the problem of everyday life? Solomon, the
wise, expressed his opinion of it when he said:
Vanity OF van ities all is vanity" and job, the
which was born" He head men daily in
Weighing against the world. and yet he thought
as God, who made it, called it good, it was I'M
ucCouinR III iHeu, LOT whom LIE MADE IL, TO
pronounce it ILL., The problem of life was to
find out the duty of life and to fulfill it. 1t was
not the attainment of wealth nor power nor
fame nor learning, but was, in his judgment,
the development of human character. A mans
character was not only in his own keeping, but
it was in his own making. All! he said, he
meant character and not reputation. A mans
character was what he was; mans reputation
was what people imagined him to be. Char
acter was one thing, reputation another, and
tItf,nc fhnr g.
and west-differeht as day and night. The
wise man seeking to develop the problem of
life looks at all the forces which actuate men
and undertakes to deal BEAUTIFULLY with all, abb
normally with none. Pleasure is TO be both
sought and despsed, pain to be both Stunned
and endured. Mr.. Titon proceeded in strain
of mingled paradox and epigram. closing with
a brilliant outburst of rhetoric.
