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 perspirations reduce bodily energy, par
ticularly those suffering from the effects of debli-
ting diseases. In order to keep natural health
full activity of the system W. must resort to artf-
cia means. For this purpose Schenck's Sea Weed
Tonic is very effectual few doses will create an
appetite and give fresh vigor 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 nq-
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

SPECIAL N~TrcES.

The following is from the principal accountant
of the wealthy and highly respectable house OF
Messrs. VOris Bro of this city, and presents ONE
OF THE MOST WONDERFUL CURES THE ANNALS Of
medical history:
Mr.. II. G. Farrell-Dear Sir: Actuatcd by a sense
OF gratefulness, 1 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 helplessness. The limbs became
so rigid that not joint could be bent; the flesh
turned black and cold and entirely deprivedof feel
ing; the eyes fixed, partially closed and altogether
bling, following this was deafness to all sounds
the spine became contracted and so curved t1at
when lying 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 was called in, and tor
three weeks he abored to restore it to feeling, but
all in vain, although it bliatered dozen times
and various rubefacient Liniments applied. A con-
sultation 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 L2iment free!ey the entire
length Of the spine, and you may imagine parents
joy, when, after few applications, returning ami
nation was apparent, and it rapidly recovered with
| the exception of the sight, which did not become
perfect for near month. The child is now healthy
and robust as can be- Five other cases of the same
| kind occurred previously in my neighborhood all
of which died, when there is doubt if your Lini
ment had been used they would have recovered.
