"While in the country last winter my little
boy, three years old, was taken i'll with Group;
it seemed as if he would die from strangu-
lation. One of the family suggested the use
of AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL, bottle OF
which was always kept in the house. This
was tried in small and frequent doses, and
to our delight i'll less than half an hour the
little patient was breathing easily. The. doc

saved my darltug-s life. Can you wonder

The following Letters were published In
The Christian at Work, the leading religious
paper of New York, some months since.
That they attracted great attention is proved
by the following editorial notice which soon
after appeared in that paper:-
"The publisher of The Christian at Work
has been asked if the letters published in this
paper, by DR.. ]. H. SoEenek, of PhiIadeI-
phia, were genuine. In reply he says, that
his representative has seen the originals of
every letter at the Office of Dr.. Sehenck, in
Philadelphia"

MEssRs. J. II. SCHENcK & Son, Philadelphia.
Gentensen:- Il have concluded that it is
my duty to write you IN regard to the great
benefit L have received by the use of DR..
Schencks medicines. One and a-half years
ago L was very sick with what my friends
and myself believed to be Consumption of
the Lungs. The disease began with heavy
cold, its worst symptom being dry hacking
cough, which was almost continuous night
and day. Soon after this began raising
thick yellow matter. Being exposed to all
kinds of weather, by working at my trade,
CduSA1b ttuulbiOii6t1 COtu SISW MOISc, uuIl1
was obliged to give up all work. at this
time had terrible pains in my lungs, and was
soon attacked with severe night-sweats. I
tried all the cough remedies advertised, be-
lieve, before heard of your remedies. They
were first brought to my notice by reading
your book on Consumption and its Cure"
used all your medicines; that is, the Man
drake Pills, Seaweed Tonic and Pulmonic
| Syrup. 1 felt their beneficial effects from the
first. They gave me strength and they gave
| me appetite, and in a very short time my
cough was looser, and soon after disappeared
| altogether. I began to gain flesh, too and in
the course of two months from beginning
their use, l was very near well. I am now
entirely well, and, believe me, very thankful
| that found your medicines and took them
| in time to save my life. I shall be pleased to
have any one call on me in regard to my case.

more when the titled gentleman brought

the nobleman urged his retirement to

to wean him from q proflgate life; but
in lew years he became weary of the
quiet nonotony, Quarreled with his sec.

out OF the Franco Prussian war he sailed

The Detective Quality.

The story about an Indian who found a
white man lying dead in the woods, with q
bullet-h hole in his forehead, is one of the
best illustrations OF the habit of observation
which the detective must cultivate. The
Indian came into the white settlement and
told the settlers his story: Found white
man dead in woods. Had hole in bis head.
Short white man shot him with long gun:
ramrod OF gun three inches beyond muzzle
Of gun. Wore gray wooden coat. Had
little dog with short tail. Had waited long
while for dead man t. come along" "How
do you know all this?" was naturally
demanded OF the Indian. Oh yes! me saw;
now show you" The settlers visited the
scene OF murder, and the Indian showed
tuem the spot where the murderer had
waited for his victim. BE had set his gun
against the tree: It was long one, beca use
the bark was slightly grazed high up, and
about three inches above the mark left bv
the muzzle there was slighter mark made
by the ramrod, showing that it projected
three inches. The man wore q gray wooden
coat, because wkere he had leaned against
the tree little particles of gray threads had
been caught by the bark. There was the
place where the little dog sat on his
haunches-his stump tail left mark in the
yielding soil. The murderer was short. be.

The AesOphagus.

The gullet (aesophagus) is not mere
tube, down which food and drink fall
of their own weight. Its sides, when at
rest, are in full contact with each other.
Itconsists mainly of muscular flores, rich.
ly furnished with nerves, especially 0! the
"refex" order-the kind that are indie
pendent of the will. The simple contact
with food or fluids excites them to action.
Hence, one who is unconscious can
be made to swallow by merely plac-
ing the substance at its entrance.
Most of our swallowing is of this charac.
ter. Each successive muscular fibre il
called into action as food reaches it,
those before di ating, and those behind
contracting. In the case Of the horse in
drinking, the water is thus actually
carried upward against gravitation.
The whole digestive tract from the
mouth downwards, through the entire
length of the intestines, is lined with a
membrane, whose office It is to secrete
lubricating fluid (mucus). This keeps
the sides of the gullet moist and soft.
The highly nervous character of the
outlet renders it extremely sensitive.
especially to stimulants, indepent emit Of
the will. Sometimes hard substance,
dCCAuclt1ly oWdIlOWeu, keIS lOukeu III IL.
The muscles at once close 50 tightly
around it in state of spasm that it il
not easily dislodged even by the physic-
ian.
A child drinks ammonia, or other cor
rosive fluid used in the kitchen, and the
inflamed outlet becomes closed up sc
tightly and constantly by the spasmodit
action of the muscles, as to deceive one
into the belief that the sides have grown
together. Nothing could be worse for il
than surgical operation.
The difficulty can be overcome BY
careful and long-continued dilation, be-.
ginning with di!ators of the smallest
possible diameter and gradually incr Is.
ing their size. Mothers cannot be too
careful to put ammonia and all corrosive
mixtures beyond their children's reach.

Wounds of Generals i'm Action,


A curious article might be written on
the immunity from wounds in action Of
some generals, and the i'll fortune OF
others in becoming the billet for bullet.
No commander adds Mr.. A. Forbes in
the English illustrated Magazine) was
ever more forward in the fighting
line than Sheridan, yet he never got a
scratch. Skobeleff, who many time
went at it with his own good sword, and
in his white coat and on his white char
ger headed every charge with reckless
ness that men called madness, had az
complete an immunity as if he carried
the charmed life that his soldiers
ascribed, and was wounded only in the
quiet trenches by chance bullet fred
into the air mile away. Wellington
was but once hit; the bullet that carried
away his boot heel scarce gave him q
confusion. Grant vas never struck; no
more was Napoleon. OF Sir Neville
Chamberlain again, one of the most dis
tiDguished officers of our Indian army,
the saying goes that he never went into
action without receiving a wound, and
the gallant old man has been fighting
pretty steadily ever since the first AT:
CHAN var. Bazaine was a man to whom
fortune was not stingy in THE matter of
wounds. At Borny there came to him
the leaden reminder that he was NOR
tai, though this time it was into near
ly as great sham as itself.
