sCHENCK's SEA WEED TONIC.

In the atmosphere experienced here during the
summer months, the lethaIgy produced by the heat
takes away the desire for wholesome food, and
frequent perspiratons reduce bodily energy, par
ticularly those suffering from the effects of debi
ting diseases. In order to keep natural health
full activity of the system w must resort to artlf-
cial means. For this purpose Schenck's Sea Weed
Tonic is very effectual. few doses will create an
appetite and give fresh vgor to the enervated body
For dyspepsia, it is invaluable. Many eminent
physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia can be
permanently cured by the drugs which are gener-
ally employed for that purpose. The Sea Weed
Tonic in its nature is totally different from such
drugs 1t contairs no corrosive minerals or acids
in fact it assists the regular operations of nature
and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in its na-
ture much resembles the gastric juice that it is
almost identical with that fluid. The gastric juice
is the natural solvent which, in healthy condition
CT the body causes the food to be digested; and
when this juice is not excreted in sufficient quanti-
ties Indigestion, with all its distressing symptoms
follow. The Sea Weed Tonic performs the duty
of the gastric juice when the latter is deficient
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic sold by all Druggists.

The Eastern Question.


LONDON, July lO.-A Berlin cores
pondent says the date for publication OF the
Anglo Turkish treaty is supposed to have
been selected with view to avoid Interior
complcatins. If the Berlin peace is
signed by Russia with knowledge OF the
existence of the Anglo Turkish treaty, the
latter treaty cannot hereafter be alleged by
Russia as reason for impugning the va
lidity of the Berlin instrument. whereas
should Russia now decline to adhere to the
Berlin treaty, unless modified to suit the
position which has supervened siuce the
publication of the Anglo-Turkish treaty,
she must prepare for the trouble she wished
to avoid when going to Berlin.
1t is understood the French government
are going to ask, or already have asked
Russia, whether she does not prefer
abandoning the idea OF Asiatic annexation
rather then see the Cyprus treaty carried
into effect, Should the question be mega
tived, France it is thought may adopt a
more active policy

SPECIAL N T1cEs.

The following is from the principal accountant
Messrs Noris Bro, of this city and presents ONE
OF THE MOST WONDERFUL CURES IN THE ANNALS Of
medical history:
OF grstefulness, l submit the following as an in
stance of the utility of your great medicine. My
child, three years old was suddenly attacked with
terrible disease, which in less than six hours pros
trated it to total helpessIees The limbs became
so rigid that not joint could be bent; the flesh
turned black and cold and entirely deprived of feel
ing; the eyes fixed, partially closed and altogether
bling, following this deafness to all sounds;
the spine became contracted and so curved that
when lying on its back the head and heels only
touched. Indeed, the child presented every ap-
pearapce of being dead. Immediately on the at
tack, the family physician called in, and for
three weeks he abOred to restore It to feeling but
all in vain, although 1t was blistered dozen times
and various rubefacient Liniments applied. con-
sultaton of physicians then held, but pur-
pose, the case then brought before the Medical
Society, but nothing could be suggested which had
not already been done and the doctor then told me
he could do nothing more. We then commenced
applying your Liniment freeley over the entire
length Of the spine, and you may imagine parents
joy when, after few application returning ami
nation apparent, and il rapidly recovered with
| the exception of the sight which did not become
perfect for near month. Tue child is now healthy
and robust as can be- Five other cases of the same
kind occurred previously in Iuy neighborhood, all
of which died, when there is doubt if your Lini
| ment had been used they would have recovered.
