principle which renders old ulcerous SO diff

their speedy cure. This Lniment from its pene-
tratng and strengthening qualities has been found

involving the muscular system. 1t has cured cases

DIR. scHENcKs PULMoNIc SYRUP

SEA WEED Tonic AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These
medicines have undoubtedly performed more cures
OF Consumption than any other remedy known TO
the American public. They are compounded of
vegetable ingredients, and contain nothing which
can be injurious to the human constitution. Other
remedies advertised as cures for Consumption
probably contain opium, which is q somewhat dan
gerous drug in all cases. and if taken freely by
sumptive patients it must do great injury; for its
tendency is to confne the morbid matter in the
system, which, OF course, must make cure impos-
sible Schenck's PulmOnic Syrup is warranted not
to contain particle OF opium; it is composed of
powerful but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungs liver, stomach and blood, and thus corrects
all morbid secretions, and expel ali the disensed
matter from the body Tn Sc are the only means
by which Consumption be cured, and as
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which ope-
rate in this way it is obvious that they are the only
genuine cure for Pulmonary Consumption Each
bottle of this invaluable medicine is accompanied
by full directions. DR.. Schenck is professionally
at his principal office, corner sixth and Arch Sts,

should be cleaned out, enough at least, TO

cannot sink through the stones.
A Little Blaze.
About o'clock this morning a fire was
discovered in the upper story of S. X,
Pershing's building on Main street, in a
suit OF rooms occupied by DR.. Bachmann
and family. None of the family were at
home, the doctor having gone to Lyons on
Monday and his wife, after supper last
evening, went to Rock Island, and the
little girl to friends in the lower part Of
town. No positive knowledge can be had
as TO what was the cause of the fire, but
appearances indicate that it originated in
the miodle room, where there was cooking
stove upon which Mrs, Baohmann cooked
supper last night, aud where she left a
lighted lamp upon a table when she
started for Rock Island. The fire de
partment was promptly on hand and did
| excellent service, extinguishing the fire IL
| very few moments, without allowing il
to be spread beyond the rooms where il
originated, The damage to the building is
