ScHENcK's PULMoNIc SYRUP, SEA WEED Tonic,
AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These deservedly celebra-
ted and popular medicines have effected revolu-
ton in the healing art, and proved the fallacy of
several maxims which have for many years OBJ
structed the progress of medical science. The
false supposition that Consumption is incurable'
deferred physicians from attempting to find reme-
dies for that disease, and patients afflicted with it
reconciled themselves 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 (some of them ap-
parenty desperate ones) by Schenck's Pulmonic
Syrup alone; and in other by the same med-
cine in connection with Schencks Sea Weed Tonic
and Mandrake Pills, one or both, according to the
requirements of the case.
Dr. Schenck himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted
good health for more than forty years, sup
posed, at time to be at the very gate of death,
his physicians having pronounced his case hope
less, and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured
by the aforesaid medicines, and. since his recovery,
many thousands similarly affected have used DR..
Schenck's preparations with the same remarkable
success.
Full directions accompany each, making it not
absolutely necessary to personally see Dr. Schenck
unless 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
addressed. Schencks medicines sold by all

PLEASURE TAKING. Pleasure taking
is not nearly as much provided for
among our earnest, intense, energetic,
American people as it should be. We
live altogether too much in the future,
too little in the present. We live poor
that we may die rich. We get all
ready to be happy, and when we are
quite ready, infirmity, or disease, or
death steps in, and the chance to take
comfort in this life is gone If we
could only be content 10 seize upon the
little pleasures that lie just outside, and
often within our daily pathway, they
would make large sum total at the end
of the three-score-and-t ten. Far too
many of us scorn pleasures that are
cheap and near, and within our grasp,
and complain because we cannot have
such as are costly and remote and mac
cessiblc.
