K The Power OF PERsoNALITY.-It Is idle
to ignore the part which strong personality
plays in the ministry Of the truth. !. Much Of
the current teaching finds acceptance more
from the weight Of authority which attaches
to the name Of the teacher than from the in
trinsic excellence of the word. There Is a
power going forth from large natures that has
been yelled beneath tho convenient term
personal magnetism But, call 1t what we
will, the power is there. Consciously Or I'M
consciously, we all pay tribute to it. 1t is not
the result Of an intense vitality, Or Of intellec-
tual gifts or Of an emotional nature. II is
the result of all. tits tho personality OF the
man. We cannot divorce the word that Is
said from tie 3oiSe that says il.

MARK TwAIN's TRAP. Tom Merry, in the

well-known humorist. One night 1t was snow
ing terribly as we walked up South G street.
when suddenly we heard Our name called.
Here was Mark Twain, wrapped in a big DYER
coat; sitting on an empty dry goods box and
covered with snow. I" It's woriin' bully"

Mr.. EDIToR:-Our citizens need not wholly
depend upon an appropriation from the city in
order.t to celebrate what to US ought to be a
great day,lif the same earnestness would work
that manifests itself politically. Having a
sense of appreciation for national independence
we naturallyilike to celebrate the day in fit
ting manner Celebrations as heretofore made
up have not been entirely satisfactory to all.
To do something that will please all ia not an
easy matter. The men of to-day were once
boys and delighted themselves in boyish sports
But hre crackers, guns and pistols only serve to
remind US that it is the Fourth of j uly, while
they are the fret of horses, the annoyance of
grown people, usually tho manning or death of
those handling them, and sometimes the de-
structon of property. Now while admitting
the good sense of an economical administra,
ton OF the city government at the present time
and the saving OF an extra expense for certain
programme displays, it seems that in order to
commemorate the day of our existence as an
independent nation, some suitable demonstra-
ton might be made by the citizens, and all
could volunteer to its accomplishment without
any great cost to any one individual. The old
time morning display of fantasies is freak of
yankee jollity, and assists in ushering in the
day with good jovial spirit. The whole city
might be enliveDed by the marching of every
organization we have, both military aud civic;
first each by itself with q band Of musicals
much fife, clarionet and drum as possible, in
different parts of the city, and finally all meet
ing at one point and uniting in one grand pro-
cession to go over short and well selected
route, thence to City Hail. have an grafton,
refreshments and rest The ladies' with their
usual ability and readiness, know how to feed
the hungry. The afternoon can be socially
and proftably spent in the city or at the Is
lands. The upshooting of rockets from an
hundred parts of the city would be fine sight.

DIR. ScHENoK's PULMoNIc SYRUP, SEA WEED,
TONIC AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These medicines
have undoubtedly performed more cures of Con-
sumption than any other remedy known to the
American public. They are compounded of vege-
table ingredients, and contain nothing which can be
injurious to the human constitution. Other reme-
dies advertised as cures for Consumption, probably
contain opium, which is somewhat dangerous
drug in all cases. and if taken freely by consumptive
PATIENTS it must do great injury; for its tendency is
to conflne the morbid matter in the system, which
of course, must make cure impossible. Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup is warranted 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 expe all the diseased matter from the
body. These are the only means by which Con-
sumption can be cured, and as Schenck's Pulmonic
Syrup Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
only medicines which operate in this way, it is
obvious they are the only genuine cure for
Pulmonary Consumption. Each bottle of this
invaluable medicines accompanied by full directions.
DR.. Schenck is professionally at his principal Office
corner Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every
Monday, where all letters for advice must be
addressed.
