Tlie lives of many men who have risen to
fame or fortune are worthy of the careful study
of all, especially when the mainspring of this
prosperity consists in a' slmplo adherence to a
tingle purpose, or tho faithful, earnest, untiring
pursuit of a single grand objoct. In tho field of
medicine this is particularly tho caso. The
records of tho profession are filled with notable
instances where this singleness of purpose has
in the end borne the richest nnd rarest frnlt.
The case of William Harvey, the eminent Eng
lish physician of the seventeenth century, is
among the most remarkable of these. In the
year 1619, while engaged in the discharge of his
duties as lecturer on anatomy and surgery in the
College of Thysiclaus at London, ho made a
discovery which in time quite revolutionized the
entire fabric which bad been built up by the de
votees of the art of healing. At this early porlod,
lie became cousclous of having detected tho true
theory of tho circulation of the blood, but
it was not until 1628, nine years later,
that he gave to tho world the treatise
which set forth this theory in all its compli
cated details. The years intervening between
the actual discovery and its first public an
nouncement were devoted to the most careful
and anxious study and experimenting, in order
to enable him to place his wonderful discovery
upon a basis that would defy the assaults of the
learned and the ridicule of the Ignorant. When
at last hia opinions were given to the world,
they were so thoroughly fortified on all side that
to this day no material additional light has been
thrown upon this special subject. But the world
of the seventeenth century was as slow to recog
nize and'acccpt such a discovery us it has always
been found, both before and since, in cases of a
elmilar character. For many years tho dis
coverer of tho circulation of tho blood
fully experienced the effects of his inno
vations. No sooner was his theory an
nounced than his practice fell off perceptibly,
and it was a long time before he fully regained
the confidence which he had previously enjoyed.
Men, learned and unlearned in medicine, re
garded him as an empiric, a dispenser of nos
trums which carried death to those who partook
of them. It was not credible that all the learn
ing and experiments of centuries could have
been so imperfect and short-sighted as to pass
by anything so palpable as the circulation of the
blood, if such a thing were possible In the eco
nomy of nature. The older members of the
profession, especially those who had been
driving along in well-defiued ruts for years
could not and would not be made to comprehend
either the possibility or the actual existence of
a principle which had been in action
under their eyes during the whole of
their professional careers, ' and yet had
entirely escaped their tlosest observation and
ever-ready scrutiny. But the great discoverer
lived long enough to witness his own unquali
fied triumph, and before his labors closed en
joyed the satisfaction of seeing all of his assail
ants discomfited by the irresistible logic of facts.
The principle of tho virculatiou of blood la all
members of tho animal kingdom was accepted
fully by the world, and became thenceforth the
groundwork of the healing art. holding in obe
dience to it all tho appliances of treatment and
cure. Siugleness of purpose, devotion to the
truths of science, fearless advocacy of the incon
trovertible principles of nature, triumphed over
ignorance ond prejudice, and gained for Harvey
a place second to none in the annals of his chosen
profession.
Tho history of Edward Jcnner, the discoverer
of vaccination, is equally instructive. While
still an apprentice to a physician, his attention
had been called to the subject of tho prevention
of smallpox. A young country girl who had
applied to his master and instructor for medical
advice incidentally remarked, in his hearing,
that she could not take the smallpox because
6he had already had the cowpox. The old
fashioned surgeon paid no heed to this passing
observation. He had devoted a lifetime to the
Btudy of the science, and had found no au tho
rity for such a notion in the books or in his own
experience. Tho young student, however,
dwelt upon the fugitive words of the girl, and
was so impressed with the importance of
the subject that he at once entered
upon its Investigation. Diligent inquiry
among the laboring people of the country
showed him that persons engaged in the milking
of the cows were frequently atllicted with a mild
eruptive disease which, as they rightly supposed,
was communicated from the cattle. This was
not all, however. He found that there prevailed
a belief that a person who had thus taken this
mild form of the cowpox was proof against the
ravages of one of the most loathsome and fatal
scourges of the human race. Bending all his
energies upon these facts, he deduced from them
the following theory: Half a century previously
the system of inoculation for the smallpox had
been introduced, the disease when thus imparted
being much less virulent than when contracted
in the ordinary way. If the cowpox were to be
Introduced into the system by inoculation, it
would also prove less virulent than the casual
complaint, and yet would retain its protecting
and preventative power. Years of careful study
and experimenting were devoted to tho subject,
and at last ho was prepared to announce his
theories to the world as established facts. A
sturdy opposition, as was to have been antici
pated, was encountered by him, and some years
elapsed before tho profession and the world at
large would acknowledge the correctness ot his
views. But his final triumph was as complete
as had been that of his predecessor, and at dif
ferent times before his death he received about
150.000 by grant from the British Parliament,
In acknowledgment of his services to the world
and as compensation for his outlays and sacri
flees.
In our own city we arc, happily, able to cite
a, ease which presents the same instructive ieu
tures as these which we have already cited
Thirty years ago, Dr. J. II. Schenck, who had
been brought to the verge ol the grave ny me
consumption, was given up by his attending
physlclau as beyond tho reach ol eartuiy am.
In the desperation which besets a man when
thus forced face te face with death, he turned
all his skill and energy to his own case, and
discovered a compound, now known as the t al
monlc Syrup, which effected a marvellous, but
perfect cure. Then he began to test its efficacy
upon others, and slowly but surely forced upon
the world the conviction that consumption was
not utterly beyond the reach of human skill, and
that, if all other remedies were powerless to hold
It at bay, the Pulmonic Byrup was its unques.
tloned master. As adjuncts to this sovereign re
medr for every class of pulmonary complaints,
the Seaweed Tonic and the Mandrake Pills were
.compounded, and the three remedies placed
before the world. It was tho old etory over
again. The cry of quackery wu raised, and
whllo the enlightonmcnt of the age did not per
mit any positive persecution, as wonld have
been the case In tho days of Harvey, the world
for years steadily refused to accept tho proffered
life-giving and health-strengthening boon. But
perseverance and energy left no room for dis
coumgement, when they were supported by
and based upon a consciousness of absolute
knowledge derived from long and variod expe
rience. Tho eyes of the world were gradually
opened to the virtues of Dr. Schcnck's remedies,
they made their way here and there,
constant accessions were received to tho
ranks of those who had substantial
cause for relying upon nnd recommending them,
and finally a large and lucrative business grew
up upon the slender foundation, the Pulmonic
Syrup, Seaweed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills
being recognized universally as medicines of the
most powerful and efficacious character. Tho
fruits of this success have been an ample compe
tence, on which, we understand, the one who has
so well deserved it contemplates retiring at an
early date from the cares, anxieties, and labors
with which his active professional career has
been so long burdened.

his coming. His reputation as a druggist, perfumer, and

Innumerable families will go thither to purchase
cheap homes and reap rich harvests from the fertile
soil. Yet many will reap harvests of sore am lotion,
disease, and death If they fall to use the proper pre
caution to preserve health.
Medicnl science and the experience of mankind
have rendered nothing more certain than this, that
the Juices of herbs properly prepared are the natural
defenses against malarious diseases.
As a safeguard against epidemic and endemio
maladies generatod by miasma and sun-heated
waters, no medicine has yet been discovered that, fn
certainty to prevent diseases or efficacy in curing
when once contracted, can in any degree compare
with the GREAT, ZINQARINI plant, dlsoovered
years ago by Cheopsus, tho great Egyptian physician.
All the known remedies were familiar to Dr.
Cheopsus; he had used them In his practice in the
Valley of the River Nile, where, perhaps, more than
in any other part of. the world, fever autidotcs are
used ; in his researches among the flora of Northern
Africa, he found and tested the medicinal qualities
of many plants, but of all these the ZINOAKINI
HERB was the most valuable. The fame of this
medicine soon crossed tho Mediterranean into
Europe, and the Red Sea into Asia, and there
became almost the only remedy for malarious fevers.
A few yours ago this medicluo was Introduced to
the American public In the form of the ZINOARI
HITTERS, a pleasant and an agreeable liquid, but in
not the slightest degree un Intoxicating beverage,
it Is a gentle -stimulant, but not an intoxicant. No
one, therefore, need hesitate to Introduce this article
into his family for dally use during the seasons when
the danger Is greatest.
Its usefulness as a domestic specific cannot be
overestimated. In cases of the stomach, sudden
spasms, chollc, hysterics, lassitude, nervous he ad
min", and Innumerable other little ailments that
occur In every family, It Is a sovereign remedy.
This Hitters is especially adapted to soothe and
tone the stomach, and every one knows that as long
as the stomach is in a healthy condition no disease
can effect a lodgment iu the system. The digestive
organs, when vigorous and In a normal condition,
perfectly dissolve aud assimilate the food, so that
the strengthening and bulldlng-up elements can be
appropriated to all the tissues of the body. But If
food is not digested, there is no material supplied to
replace the natural waste of the system. The great
value of the ZINGARI BITTERS lies Just In this fact,
that it keeps the digestive organs In tone, or speedily
corrects them when deranged.
Chills aud fever are the pests of many communities:
whole districts of country have been depopulated by
this insidious malady, families have been reduced to
poverty simply because their working powers had
been destroyed by the slow and sure effects of this
disease; aud the skill of the entire medical faculty U
often bullied by its pertinacity, yet no one who has
tried this new remedy has long suffered from chills
nnd fever, nor has auv one been attacked by this
disease who used ZINOARI BITTERS as a pre
ventive. Whllo most men recogul.e aud ac
knowledge the necessity for stimulants, few
take the pains to obtain a proper one. It
olten happens therefore, the great evil Is done in the
attempt to cure. Many resort to the use of raw
alcoholic liquors, such as are sold in the public

by extensive and careful analysis made of those sold
in the saloons of New York, are often the vilest
compounds of water, fvttel nil,amyle, or tttlplmric acrid.
By the use of these, therefore, the system is thor
oughly impregnated with deadly poisons, which will
lead to fatal results. It Is unsure to trust to common
liquors. We must look elsewhere for a stimulant and
tonic. There Is one provided which may
be administered with perfect safety to
all who need lnvigorants. Its increas
ing popularity, Its extensive use. and
its superior Quulitles, determined bv the most varied
experience, are the strongest evidence of Its utility.
The most Teurftil consequences have frequently re
sulted from a mistake in the selection aud use of
stimulants, and it is therefore of the utmost import
ance to the public to know that, notwithstanding tha
vast amount of deception practised In the mixing of
liquors and the adulteration of drugs, there is yet a
preparation thoroughly reliable, warranted to be
free of all noxious elements, compounded of the
purest materials, and in every sense of the word a
medicine.
The ZINOARI BITTERS are given to the public
with entire confidence and upon a full knowledge of
their vn'"e.

emaciated, spiritless; in luct, a general wreck. We tried
quite a number of doctors, msny home and advertised re

to try your Illi'i KKH. and after using it but a short time,
the oatamenia were restored, and her general health haa
already wonderfully improved. We can never thank you

believe it to be the greatest family medicine out, and
would under no circumstances bo without it.
