    APRIL .
I listen for the Totca of song.
And hear a mora or in the trees
Of April in a fitful breeze.
Who says the (rowing wings are strong.
Bise! Burn thy winter robe to-day !
Thus did the poet Omar sing:
The Bird of Tune is on the wing.
He flatters bat a little way.
Behold the dawning of a rojoe !
Hold hard the sorrow of thy heart.
For mnsie keener makes the smart ;
The singer waits not on our choice.
In the new dawn I hear his note ;
He lingers while the roses blow.
Then goes oh, where ? I do not know
On what bright wares my darlings float.

Esperleaceef a Bill CMlecter.
"In mv younger days," paid Mr. Ma
guffin, "I was at one time a collector
a bill collector. At first I had a good
deal of trouble finding a place. There's
a prejudice against young collectors,
you know. The keen, experienced
debtor handles them very easily. A
glass of beer, a cigar, or cheaper and
better yet, a little judicious flattery,
and the young man goes back and re
port, Cant get anything out of him.'
.Middle-aged or prime old men do best
as collectors.
"But I managed to get work, and I
was very succetful. In fact, being a
young man, I could not afford to fail,
and 1 made it a point never to undertake
the colletion of a bill that did not pesent
a reasonable hope ; so that I collected
every bill 1 undertook with one excep
tion, and in that case the circumstances
were such that I never considered my
failure derogatory to my character as a
collector.
"He was a rich man, abundantly able
to pay, and I didn't doubt that I would
some day get the money. He had taken
offence at something said or done to him
in the store, and swore he would never
pay the bill. But I had heard men say
worse things than that, and pay after
all. So I went to work at him First
1 called about twenty-live times, at
regular intervals; that was enough to
show me tnat be was a man of endurance,
and that it would be a long chase, on
which I could not afford to waste time.
So I put him along with two or there
others on whom 1 called whenever 1
was in their neighborhood. If I was
down town, near his office, I dropped
in and asked him for the money; if I
was up town, near his house, I called
there ; if I happened to meet him in the
street 1 didn't let him pass without a
dun. One evening I saw him get out
of a capriage at the Academy, and 1
hailed him on the spot; but always he
said it was no use, lie never would pay.
"And so it went along for two years,
but I was not discouraged, for I had
recovered debts after waiting longer
than that. In this time we got very
well acquainted and he used to smile
and talk good-humoredly when I came,
and 1 must say that while he was a very
pig-headed and obstinate man, still he
had a cheerful courtesy about him that
materially lightened the monotony of
my visits,
"in the summer of '53 1 went on my
annual vacation and came back to town
Iresb and hearty and ready for business.
The first call i made was on my resolute,
good-natured friend, whose conquest I
had come now to regard as essential to
the preservation of my prestige as a col
lector, it was at night quite a dark
night as I remember it, and I had
skipped up the door steps and grabbed
the bell handle preparatory to an ener
getic yank when I felt something on
mv hand, soft, and at the same time
kind of crispy. I bent over to see what
it was, and by-gad the good natureu,
resolute man had beaten me at last.
The stuff on the bell knob was crape!"
Tne Beds at tier
i Betels.
I had supposed that the beds which
Tom Hood seemed to caricature, but
only described, had been changed some
thing more in accordance witn tne needs
of the modern traveler. But I find that
North Germany adheres to its down.
Even in the city of Berlin, at one of the
best hotels, the beds were a relie of the
barbarous social period out of which
the Germans are slowly and with re
luctance emerging. I found my bed
atWittenburg to consist of a mattress
with one sheet spread on it, and on top
of that a short, fat down bed. Previous
experience of the like told me that with
this sort of bed several things would
happen in the night: the bed would not
cover my feet; it would not cover my
shoulders; it would become intolerably
hot if I could curl under it, and it could
not by any skill of mine be long kept
on. in order to keep this encumbrance
in place you must lie awake all night.
Accordingly I summoned the waiter,
the waiter called the chambermaid. 1
told them that, if I could have no other
cover, 1 must at least have another
sheet, so that my feet might not be left
naked and defenceless in the world.
They consulted and finally came to a
conclusion. When I returned I found
that the sheet had been taken off and
another one put on, which the maid ex
plained was longer than the other;
otherwise the situation was unchanged,
i insisted that I desired two sheets in
order to have one over me. This was
too much for the experience of the
chambermaid, who exclaimed : "What ?
two sheets! Mein God !" "Yes," I said,
"two sheets, one above the other."
With great reluctance my order was ex
ecuted, but the sheets were tucked in
together in a manner to show that their
strange use was not comprehended, and I
have no doubt I am talked of at that iuu
as the eccentric stranger who desired to
sleep on two sheets. Char let Dudley

A writer on "health, comfort and
cleanlines in the house," in the Builder,
says that the houses of the middle class
have, in his recollection, become colder,
except as to the unwholesome heat
given out by gas. With the general
discarding of soft feather beds, with
close hangings, and the increase of
habits of personal cleanliness, has come
a still greater necessity than ever before
for the amelioration of our climate, in
doors. One thing, of which he does not
speak, will occur to any one who is
obliged to examine the houses which
are "built to let" in this or other cities
where wooden buildings predominate.
Too many buildings intended to be
homes are built so hastily and carelessly
that the cracks and crannies let in niore
wind and cold and wet than a poor man
can warm into comfort, though be spend
the half of his kingdom for coal. The
writer notes one important fact in
speaking of dampness. He says "the
best way to keep a house dry and
healthy is to use it, living in all the
rooms either every day or by turns. A
spare room is usually a damp, ill-ventilated
room, and an empty house deteri
orates much faster than one that is oc
cupied." Tate World's frpletleaa.

three pieces split or sawed out of any
durable timber, 3 by 3 inches, 6 feet 6
Inches long, firmly nailed together in
shape like the letter A, only that two
posts are on one aide, 3 or 4 Inches
apart, according to the thickness of the
rails. A piece of inch board, 3 or 4
inches wide, must be nailed across the
double posts for the lower rail to rest
upon. The brace is railed across the
posts, the butt of the brace being 3 feet
from the butt of the posts, and the top
being a few inches down from the top
of the outside post. When the rails
are 12 feet long the poets require to be
11 feet apart; that will allow the rails

Rearing Eaelt Lambs. There are
many inducements, at this time, de
manding tne special attention oi tnose
eniraeed in sheep raising. The two
great sources of profit from this kind of
live stock, are the meat and the wool,
either of which, from the present
means of judging are likely to be estab
lished on a permanent basis, there can
be little doubt. But there is one source
of profit which at this time, affords
quite ample compensation. Bearing
mutton. If proper arrangements are
made for taking it to market, is un
questionably a very paying business.
The keepers of this stock by making
arrangements for naving tne lamos
chiefly in three winter months, may witn
suitable attention to the feeding insure
a good supply of early meau- As soon
as the lambs can be taugnt to eat Indian
meal, and this may be very soon effected
by having little enclosures adapted to
their size, from wnicn tne oia ones can
be readily excluded, the lambs will
learn to like the meal. Even at the age
of two or three weeks they will eat suf
ficient to add perceptibly to their sus
tenance. By the time early pasture
has appeared, they will be ready for
the market, where they then command
a larger price than was obtained for
old sheep but a few years since. In
this connection I would add, that in
order that the lambs may be in the best
condition for the market, it will pay to
contiuue to feed the ewes at first. By
giving them about a gill or whole corn,
the ewes will not only be kept in good
condition, but will be enabled to turn
off the lambs sooner, wbicn will be a
source of satisfaction and profit to tneir
proprietor.
Harrowixg Wheat. The uniform
testimony of all those who have tried
harrowing wheat in tne spring is, mat
it pars. One subscriber says : 1 nave
acted upon the advice giveu by you and
I fiuu the result at harvest most satis
factory. I began the custom by har
rowing fifteen acres, or about one-half
the usual number or acres tnat l sow.
My neighbors, who had never seen it
done, insisted that it would kill it out.
I shall continue the practice, as I have
now procured one of the Thomas
smoothing harrows, which, in a great
measure, enables me to dispense with
the roller, which I still use, however.
when the early spring is an unusually
dry one. I think by using the harrow
that the wheat tillers that is. stools
out better than when it is not cultivated
in the spring."
Another subscriber writes as follows:
"I find that harrowing wheat in the
spring pays well. It gives tne wneat a
good start, and the harrowed portion
ripens as early as the unharrowed part,
and has heavier seeds. "
In harrowing wheat, care must be
taken that the soil is sufficiently dry so
that the harrow will pulverize it nicely.
In such cases, once harrowing is as ad
vantageous to the wheat crop as one
good working of a field of corn in the
early part of its growth. Experience
and judgment must determine the pre
cise time when this work should be
done. It should noC be done until the
heavy frosts in March are over, which
will, however, depend much u 'on the
season. Sural World.
To Cleax a Kcstt Plough. Take a
quart of water and pour slowly into it
half a pint or sulphuric acid. I lie mix
ture will become quite warm from
chemical action and this is the reason
why the acid should be poured slowly
into the water, rather than the water
into the acid, and let it remain on the
iron until it evaporates. Then wash it
again. The object is to give the acid
time to dissolve the rust. Then wash
with water and you will see where the
worst spots are. Apply some more
acid and rub on the spots with a brick.
The acid and the scouring will remove
most of the rust. Then wash the mould
board thoroughly with water to re
move all the acid, and rub it dry.
Brush it over with petroleum or other
oil, and let it be till spring. When you
go to ploughing, take a bottle of the
acid water to the field with you and ap
ply it to any spot or rust that may re
main. The acid and the scouring of
the earth will soon make it perfectly
bright and smooth. If all iron work
be washed off with petroleum as soon as
we put our tools, implements and ma
chines aside for the winter, it will keep
them from rusting, and save . a great
deal of trouble and annoyance, to say
nothing of the depreciation and loss.

IlrsoABiAX grass varies much in ap
pearance from the common millet. It
beads much like timothy grass. The
writer has been very successful in his
experiments with this grass during the
past year; sowed a plot or part of a field
about the first of June, from which he
cut about three tons of hay and thirty-
five bushels or seed per acre. lne hay
is now being fed to his stock,, and is
eaten with apparently much relish. It
should be sowed on well-prepared
ground, with about one-half bushel of
seed per acre. After sowing give a
light scratch with the harrow. Sow any
time from the 20th of April to the 20th
of June. Cut, if wanted for hay, only
when seed commences to form, ir tor
hay and seed, cut when ripe and seeds
well matured. Exchange.

Parisian Toy-Haling Utilising
Waste. Any one who has ever walked
through one of the great toy-importing
booses in this city at holiday time, and
Derbape wondered at the task, and in-
genuity oispiayea oj uie r reucu work
men in devising many of the most
beautiful playthings, wonld hardly
imagine that waste and refuse materi
als, very odd ones too sometimes, are
largely ased in the Parisian toy indus
tiy. Elegantly dressed dolls, tricked
out in all the refinement of the latest
fashion, and which fetch incredible
pnoea on this aide of the Atlantic, are
frequently costumed from the cast-off'
stage rlothea of actresses in the thea
tres, purchased for a mere song, or
from the useless garments remaining
in theatrical wardrobe after a play
ha had a lone run. The coverings of
old parse and pocket books, fished
out of the gutter oy Buarp-eyeu rag
pickers, furnish material for the doll
boot maker. Old sardine boxes and
cans yield their plate to the manufac
turer of barrels for toy gnus. The lit
tle wooden or metal wheels which sup
port movable toy are obtained from
the refuse of any industry in which ar
ticle baring circular openings are
made. French cruet stands, usually of
wood and having boles tor bottles,
provide thousands of such disks, re
moved in making the apertures. All
the solder and pewter that can be ex
tracted from old rooting and water
spouts, or workshop scraps is pressed
into service for the manufacture of
dolls' knives and forks, tea sets, etc ;
and even the ancient lead coffins dug
out of the old cemeteries at N ureniberg,
the French toy makers utilize in the
manufacture of lead soldiers. No other
nation equals the French in converting
the ordinary refuse of the street and
workshop into nsefnl and ornamental
product! It i this characteristic for
saving which make tue r rencu nauon

Proposed Optical Barometer. When
a refracting prism is successively im
mersed in media of different refractive
indices, the ultimate angular deviation
of the ray will, as is well known, de
pend in each case on the relative indi
ces of the glass and the medium sur
rounding it at the time of the experi
ment. And as the refractive index of
atmospheric air varies with its density,
the amount of deviation of the refrac
ted ray will be a measure of the dessi
ty of the air, that is, will give the
means of ascertaining the reading of
the barometer at the time.
If the ray of light were made to pass
through a number of refracting and
totally rettecting prisms, the deviation
would be increased. If with these
prisms a microscope were combined,
the prisms might be nsed as a barome
ter. Or if the ray be received oblique
ly on a number of pieces of glass, hav
ing parallel faces and slightly separa
ted from each other, although there
would be no angular deviation, there
would be horizontal displacement which
would admit of beiug measured by a
micrometer. How far such an applica
tion wonld be of practical value is eer
Miir.lv doubtful, as the effect of chan
ges of temperature on the prism itself
might intertere witn tne very uoiiieu
ranm of the instrument. Or again, it
is possible that easterly, westerly, or
other currents or peruape uiuereucra
in the hygrometric state of the atmos
phere may affect the index of refrac
tion otherwise than by the mere chan
a of density which they produce.
But if such be the case, the refracting
prism will be useful in determining Uie
eTiHtenrA and amount of such varia
tions in the refrangibility of the at
mosphere. Thomas Stevenson, in ma

Weighing tlie Light of a Candle.
Prof. Crookes of London has actually
succeeded in weighing the light of a
candle, although! light has hiterto been
considered imponderable. The princi
ple of his delicate and complicated in
strument is based on the fact that a
tine thread of glass, suspended at one
end, may be turned round twenty or
thirty time without breaking, and has
a tendency to untwist itself. By fas
tening such a thread in a tnbe and
throwing a ray of light on the interior,
it has been found possible, with the aid
of other scientific appliances, to register
the revolutions and tensions caused by
the introduction of the light of a can
dle into the tube, the result of which is
that it weighs about 0.001728, or nearly
the two thousandth part of a grain.
Taking this as an approximate starting
point, we find that the light thrown
out by the sun on the earth is equal to
about thirty-two grains per square
foot, or riftv-seven tons to the square
mile, or 3,000,000.000 tons on the whole
earth, a force that, but for gravitation,
would drive our planet into space.
Artificial Snore Crystals. The diffi
culty of observing snow crystals except
in a'freezjng air has led M. Dogiel, of
St, Petersburgh Academy, to seek for
some substance not liable to dissolve
at ordinary temperatures, and crystal
lizing, like snow, in the hexagonal sys
tem. He selected iodoform, (C II It ),
a compound familiar to some of our
readers from its medical nses. It crys
tallize in a remarkable variety of
forms. To show their mnfeiplicity M.
Dogiel dissolves iodoform ju boiling (DO
per cent) alcohol, and let the solution
cool in water of different temperatures.
He get mostly tabular crystals when a
solution containing 15 to 30 per cent of
iodoform is kept ten minted in water of
about 57 deg. to ou deg. t an. ; w nere as

English Family Sovr. According to
the London Agricultural Gazette, a very
good family soup is made from one and
a half pounds of lean beef, two pounds
of potatoes sliced thin, one large carrot,
one large onion, a few ah slots, Yme
turnip, one stick of celery, four quarts
of water. Let it simmer four hours,
flavor with hot sauce to suit the taste,
salt, pepper, etc. It Is a great Improve
ment to fry all the vegetables when cut
in small pieces, together with the meat
also cut in pieces conveniently small,
taking care that there is fat enough
added to- nrevent the raw vegetables
from burning. A desert-spoonful of
coarse brown sugar may be thrown into
the pan while the meat, vegetables, etc.,
are frying. After it has simmered four
hours, it should be set to cool for the
fat to be taken from the top of the soup
before being served up for use. The
meat should be sent to tame in tne soup,
not strained as is usually done.
Cckixo Hams French Method.
The following receipt makes a pickle
for curing hams or beef, that is very
toothsome when well cooked. (The
reader can readily make the change to
English weights a kilogramme being
1,000 grammes :) For 100 kilogrammes
of hams or beef, well trimmed there
will be required eight kilos of pure salt ;
2'i kilos of light brown sugar (or 1 liter
of good molasses;) 250 grammes of
cloves; lio grammes eacn oi saltpeter
and soda, and fifty grammes of cayenne
or black pepper, according to taste and
locality. The ingredients must all be
well pulverized and rubbed into the
meat. The meat will require rubbing
once a day for several days, in order to
get the pickle well rubbed in. If a wet
pickle be preferred it must be boiled
and skimmed, using enough water to
cover the meat after it has cooled.

Protecting Boors from Fire. A
wash composed of lime, salt and fine
sand, or wood ashes, put on in the ordi
nary way of whitewashing, is said to
render the roor nrty-rold more saie
against taking fire from falling cinders
or otherwise in case of fire in the
vicinity. It pays the expense a hundred
fold in its preserving influences against
the effect or the weather; tne older ana
more weather-beaten the shingles, the
more benefit derived. Such shingles
are generally more or less warped,
rough and cracked. The application of
the wash, Dy wetting tne upper suriace,
restores them to their original or first
form, thereby closing the spaces between
the shingles, and the lime and sand, by
filling up the cracks and pores In the
shingle itself, prevents its warping for
years, if not forever. Fireman1 1 Journal.
Recipe for Scet Ftddixo. Take one
enp of suet, chopped fine; one cup of
raisius, chopped ; one-nan cup oi Eng
lish currants: one cup of syrup; one
cup of sour milk, two even teaspoons of
soda. -Mix the suet, raisins ana currants
well into the syrup; then add the sour
milk; next, the soda, pulverized and
well mixed in a handful or dry Dour.
Stir until it begins to foam, then add
flour enough to form a stiff batter.
Steam one and one-half hours. For a
large family double the quantity will
be required, and it should be steamed
two hours, berve not.
Graham Bread. Take 1 bushel or
more of wheat and grind as yon would
for flour. Do not bolt, but sieve it
through a wire sieve, then take sweet
milk, stir to a batter, then put in a
muffin-iron, bake quickly and serve
while hot. Another receipt Is: 'lake
one quart of milk, scald one-half of it,
and your one quart of good Graham
flour into it; then add the rest of the
milk, warm, and flour enough to stir as
thick as possible with a spoon, adding
hair a cup or good molasses while stir
ing it; then bake slowly for an hour.
To Make nop Yeast. One handful
of bops, steeped in two quarts of water,
three large potatoes boiled and peeled,
and rubbed through a cullender with
three tablesnoonfuls of flour. Strain
the water upon them while rubbing
them through, when not too hot; add
one tablespoouful of yeast, and let it
raise till light; add a half-tablespoonful
each of salt and sugar, and bottle for
use. Shake well be I ore using, and keep
in a cool place. Two-thirds of a teacup
ful is sufficient for four good sized
loaves.
Flax.nel Cake. Mix three table-
spoonfuls of flour with one pint of
cream; add twoeggsand beat the wbole
well till quite smooth; then add slowly
half a pint of new milk, Into which has
been puta teasoonfulol baking powder.
Beat all well together and fry with
lard, a little of which should be made
hot for each cake. Eat with powdered
sugar, mixed with cinnamon or grated
nutmeg. '
How to Frt Salt Pork. Many peo
ple do not relish salt pork fried, but it
is quite good to soak it in milk, two or
three hours, then roll in Indian meal
and fry to a light brown. This makes
a good dish with mashed turnips, or
with raw onions cut small in vinegar;
another way is to soak it over night In
skim milk and bake like fresh pork ; it
s almost as good as fresh roast pork.
Sacce for PfDDixG. One-half cup
of butter, one half cup of sugar; beat
these together with one heaping table
spoon of flour. Pour into it (a little at
a time, stirring all the while,) one pint
of boiling water, and let it simmer on
the stove a few minutes. Add one tea-
sKon of lemon extract, and the juice
of one lemon or a teaspoon of lemon
Hasty Pudding. Boil some water
and thicken with flour, as you would
for thin starch ; silt some coarse meal.
and stir in until it is quite thick; keep
it boiling all the time you are putting
in the meal, which must be done grad
ually; salt to the taste; boil it well;
put it in a bowl and turn out. Eat with
cream and molasses. . ,
Rice Pudding without Eggs. Put
into a well buttered dish half pound best
Carolina rice, simply washed ; pour oil

Tnn is the Wat Astors are Made.
A Munson street man being told that
there were several pieces or tin wnicn
needed mending, conceived the idea of
getting an Irou and solder and doing
Ute. Bneamng nimseii. xiis wue, uu
with vague forebodings perhaps, said
that the expense was such a trifle
that it would hardly pay to do It one
self, to which he responded :
"I'll admit tnat in tnis one instance
it weald not pay; but there is some
thing being in want of repair every
little while, ana li i nave me toots uere
for fixinp- it. we are saved just so much
expense right along. It may not be
much in tne course oi a year, out every
little helps, and in course of time the
total would amount to a nice little
lump. We don't want the Astors lug-
fingoffall the mouey in the country,
y gracious."
He rot the Iron II and 50 cents
worth of solder, and 10 cents' worth of
rosin. He came home witn tnese tnings
and went into the kitchen, looking so
proud and happy that his wife would
have been glad he got them were it not
for an overpowering dread of an int
ending muss. He called for the arti
cle needing repair. uis wue uruugui
out a pan.
"Where's the rest?" Bring 'em all
out an let me make one job of 'em while
I'm about it." -
He cot them all and seemed to be dis
appointed that there were not more of
them, tie pusneu the iron into me nre,
got a milk-pan inverted on his knee;
and, with the solder in his hand, waited
for the right heat.
"That iron cost only $1, and it'll
never wear out. and there's enough
solder In this piece to do $23 worth of
mending," he said to his wife.
Pretty soon the iron was at the right
heat, he judged, lie ruboea tne rosin
about the hole which was to be repaired,
held the stick of solder over it, and
carefully applied the iron. It was an
intensely in teres ting moment, uia wue
watched him with feverish interest.
He said, speaking laboriously, as he ap
plied the iron : "The ouly thing I
regret about it is that I did
not think of getting this before
we " Then ascended through that
ceiling, and up to the vault of heaven,
the most awiui yen mac woman ever
beard, and on the Instant tne soldering
Iron flew over the stove, the pan went
clattering across the floor, and the bar
of solder struck the wall with such
force as to smash right through both
plaster and lath. And before her horri
fied gaze danced her husband in an
ecstacy of agony, sobbing and scream
ing, and holding on to ins lcit leg as
desperately as it it was made of solid
gold and studded with diamonds.
"Get the camphor, why don't you,"
he yelled. "Send for a doctor. Oh!
Oh ! I'm a dead man." be shouted.
Just then his gaze rested on the solder
ing iron. In an instant he caught it up
and hurled it through the window with
out the preliminary of raising the sash.
It was some time be lore the tuorougniy
frightened and confused woman learned
that some of the molten solder had run
through the hole In the pan on his leg.
although she knew from the first that
something or an unusual nature nau oc
curred. She didn't send for the doctor,
She made and applied the poultices her
self to save expense. She said :
"We don't want the Astors lugging
oft all the money in the country, by
gracious."

Natural Reasoning. Three or four
Detroit girls were the other day dis
cussing the character and standing ot a
certain young man, and an old lady was
a close listener. One or the girls nnally
remarked: "Well, I guess he's rich,
for 1 saw him coming out of a bank the
other day." "And 1 guess he drives a
street car," put in the old lady, "lor I
saw him jump off' a car one day last

'Ecoxomt. my dear, economy," said

boxes about the house;" and, taking
the last "Havana" from another box,
he handed her the box to put a oleandei

M. Payer, the eminent Arctic explorer,
referring to a certain day on which the
thermometer indicated 68 degrees Far
enhelt below zero, says that so great
an amount of cold paralyzes the will,
and that, under Its inuflence, men, from
the unsteadiness of their gait, their
stammering talk, and the slowness of
mental operations, seem as if they were
intoxicated. Another effect of such
cold, mentioned by M. Payer, is a tor
menting thirst, which is due to the
evaporation of the moisture of the body.
It is unwholesome, too, to use snow to
quench the thirst, as it brings on inflam
mation of the throat, palate, and tongue ;
besides, a temperature of 35 V to 58 de
grees below zero, Fahrenheit, makes it
taste like molten metal. Snow-eaters
in the north are considered as feeble
and effeminate in the same way as is
an opium-eater in the East.

Dr. MMMkl atawdmrd KeaeedJee.
The standard remedies for all diseases
of the lungs are Schenck' Pulmonic
Strup, Sckexck's Sea Weed Tonic,
and Schenck' Mandrake Pills, and,
if taken before the lungs are destroyed,
a speedy cure is effected.
To these three medicines Dr. J. IT.
Schenck, of Philadelphia, owes his un
rivalled success in the treatment of pul
monary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the mor
bid matter In the lungs; nature throws
It off by an easy expectoration, for when
the phlegm or matter is ripe a slight
cough will throw it off, the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do
this, Schenck's Mandrake Pills and
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic must be
freely used to cleanse the stomach and
liver. Schenck' Mandrake Pills act on
the liver, removing all obstructions, re
lax the gall bladder, the bile starts
freely, and the liver is soon relieved.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle
stimulant and alterative; the alkali of
which it is composed, mixes with the
food and prevents souring. It assists
the digestion by toning up the stomach
to a healthy condition, so that the food
and the Pulmonic Syrup will make good
blood; then the lungs heal, and the pa
tient will surely get well If care is taken
to prevent fresh cold.
All who wish to consult Dr. Schenck,
either personally or by letter, can do so
at his principal office, corner of Sixth
and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every
Monday.
Schenck's medicines are sold by all
druggists throughout the country.

of the skin; also, chlorosis, leucorrhea,
