DR. scHcNcK's PU1MoN1c SYRUP

SEA WEED Tonic AND MANDRAKE PILLs.--1hese
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. O. her
remedses advertised as cures for ConsSnp ion
probably contain opium, which is somewhat dan
garous drug in all cases. and il taken freely by
consumptive patients, II must do great injury Tor
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; 1t is composed
of powerful but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungs liver. stomach, and blood, and thus correct
all morbid secretions and expel all the diseased
matter from the body. These are the o:ly means
| by which Consumption can be cured, and ms
schenck's Pulmonc Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and
| Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which op-
crate in this way it is obvious that they are the
| only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consumption
/ Each bottle of this invaluable medicine is accom-
panied by full directions. DR.. Schenck is profess
sionally at his principal office, corner Siqth and
| Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday, where
| all letters for advice must be addressed.

Beautiful Hair.

FROM J. A. TYNEs. A WELL KNOWN
CITIZEN OF WILSON, N. C.-My wife had
suffered for ten or twelve years with a

hair to fall out and get very thin and
turned grey, but after using London
Hair Color Restorer," the tetter was
cured and the grey hair restored to its
natural color, the hair stopped falling
out and is growing beautifully. By
telling of the effect it had on the head
of my wife L have induced number
to try it, and | want you to send me a
dozen bottles by express. l enclose
postoffice order for $S to pay for it.

Judge Harris has done most excellent
service at the head of the Election Com
mittee this session, fighting a combined
opposition without, and not a little defec-
ton within his committee and party. He
has pluck, sense, an admirable temper.
and vigor Of thought as well as of action,
and despite the almost inexplicable course
of a few Democrats brought Dean through
yesterday with flying colors. His closing
/ speech for the contestant on Wednesday
evening was not only unanswerable as an
argument, but one of those bugle calls
which inspire whole army to action. OF
course it will be claimed by the Republi-
cans that the seating of Dean was mere
exhibition Of partisan brute force, and
this too without reference to the fact that
Butler, the ablest Republican politician
and lawyer in either House, most vigor-
ously supported the Democratic side of the
question. Where so many have done well
it is perhaps invidious to mention names,
and yet 'sThe Post' feels that rousing
tribute is due to Judge Harris exhibition
of power as an organizer and party leader.
The Democracy everywhere should lift its
cap to him. Washington Post.
