SCHENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS.
Are the only medicines that will cure Pulmonary
Consumption.
Frequently medicines that will stop a cough will
occasion the death of the patient; they lock up the
iver,stop the circulation of the blood hemorrhage
follows and in they clog the action of the very
organs that caused the cough,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes
of twothirds Of the cases OF Consumption. Many
persons complain of dull pain in the side, con-
sipation coated tongue, pain in the shoulderblade
feelings of drowsiness and restlessness, the food
lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied with
acidity and belching up of wind
These symptoms usually originated from dsor-
dered condition of the stomach or torpid liver.
Persons so affected, II they take one two heavy
colds, and il 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 are mass of sores, and
liberated, the result OF which is death.
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup is an expectorant which
does not contain opium or anything calculated to
check o cough suddenly.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dissoves the food
mixes with the gastric juices OF the stomach aids
digestion and creates q ravenous appetite.

symptom otherwise of a bilious tendency Schenck

The question of Sunday opening is be

prospect of at least compromise and a
partial if not an entire opening Of the ex-
hibition on Sundays.
Much complaint is made of vandalism
among visitors, particularly in the art de-

of the art gallery has been closed until
railings can be put up, holes having been
punched in two valuable pictures by
umbrellas and canes used as pointers by
visitors. Several statues have been
defaced By parties anxious to know
whether marble or plaster is used in their
manufacture, and several exhibitors
threated to withdraw their goods entirely
unless some measures are taken to stop
these manifestations of barbarism,
