D MANY a human being has passed away, for whose death there xvas no other reason than the neglect of known ‘aud indisputably liroven means of cure. Those near and dear to family and friends are sleeping the dreamless slumber into which, had they calmly adopted DR. JOSEPH H. SCHENCK’S SIMPLE TREATMENT. and availed themselves of his wonderful effica cious medicines, they would not have fallen. Dr. Schenek has in his own-case proved that wherever sufficient viridity remains, that vital ity, by his medicines and his directions for their use, is quickened into healthful vigor. In this statement there is nothing presump tuous. To the 4,’aith of the invalid is made no representation that is not a thousand times substantiated by living and visible works. The theory of the cure by Dr. Sohenck’s medicines is as simple as it is 111 failing. Its philosophy requires no argument. It is self-assuring, self convincing. The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the first two weapons with which the citadel of the malady is assailed. Two-thirds of the cases of consumption originate in dyspepsia and a functionally disordered livei. With this condition the bronchial tubes “sympathize” with the stomach. They respond to the morbific action of the liver, Here then comes the cul minating result, and the setting in, xvith all its distressing symptoms, of CONSUMPTION. The Mandrake Pills are esmposed of one of Nature’s noblest gifts—the Podophillnm Pelta tum. They possess all the blood-searching, alterative properties of calomel. But unlike calomel, they “LEAVE NO STING BEHIND,” The work of cure is now beginning. The vitiated and mucous deposits in the bowels and in the alimentary canal are ejected. The liver, like a clock, is wound up. It arouses from its torpidity. ’The stomach acts responsively, and the patient begins to feel that he is getting, at last, A SUPPLY OF GOOD BLOOD. The Seaweed Tonic, in conjunction with the Pills, permeates and assimilates with the food. Chylideation is now progressing without its previous tortures. Digestion becomes painless, and the cure is seen to be at hand. There is 10 more flatulence, no exacerbation of the stomach An appetite sets in. Now comes the greatest Blood Purifier ever yet given by an indulgent father to suffering man. Schenck’s Pulmonic Svrup comes in to perform its functions and to hasten and com plete the cure. It enters at once upon its work. Nature cannot be cheated. It collects and ripens the impaired portions of the lungs. Tn the form of gatherings, it prepares them for expectoration, and lo ! in a very short time the malady is vanquished, the rotten throne that it occupied is renovated and made now, and the patient, in all the dignity of regained vigor, steps forth to enjoy the manhood or the woman hood that was GIVEN UP AS LOST. The second thing is, the patients must stay in a warm room until they get well ; it is almost impossible to prevent taking cold when the lungs are diseased, but it must be prevented or a cure cannot be effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this section of the country in the winter season, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that course lose patients, if their lungs are badly diseased, and yet because they afe in the house they must not sit down quiet ; they must walk about the room as much and as fast as the strength will bear, to get up a good circulation of blood. The patients must keep in good spirits—he determined to get well. This has a great deal to do with the appetite, and is the great point to gaiu. To despair of cure after such evidence of its 1 possibility in the worst eases, and moral cer tainty in all others, is sinful. Dr. Schenck’s personal statement to the Faculty of his own cure was in these modest words : Many years ago I was in the last stages of consumption ; confined to mv lied rtnrl a t f T , e ,ime my pnysicians thought that I could not live a week; then, like a drowning man catch ing at straws. I heard of and obtained the narations which I now offer to the public, and they made a perfect cure of me. It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened the matter in mv lungs, and I would spit up more than a pint o"f offensive yellow matter every morning for a long time. As soon as that began to subside my cough, fcvei, pain and night sweats all began to leave me, and my appetite became so great that it was with difficulty that I could keep from eating too much. I soon gained my strength, and have grown in flesh ever since.” “I was weighed shortly after mv recovery,” added the Doctor, “then lookinglike a mere skeleton; my weight was only ninety-seven pounds ; my present weight is two hundred and tvventv-five pounds, and for vears I have “ENJOYED GOOD HEALTH.” Dr. Schenck has discontinued his professional visit to New York and Boston. He or his sou, Dr. J 11. Schenck, Jr., still continue to see patients at their office. No. 15 North Sixth street, Philadelphia, every Saturday from 9 a. rn., to 3 p. m. Those who wish a thorough examination with the Respirometer will be charged five dollars. The Respirometer declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readily learn whether they are curable or not. Tlia directions for taking the medicine are adapted to the intelligence even of a child Follow these direetons, and kind nature will do the rest, excepting that in some cases the Man drake Pills are to be taken in increased doses ; the three medicines need no other accompani ments than the ample instructions that do accompany them. First create appetite. Os returning'health hunger is the most welcome svmptom. When it comes, as it will come, let tne despairing be of good cheer. Good blood at once follows, the cough loosens, the night sweat is abated. In a short time both of these morbid symptoms are gone forever. Dr. Schenck’s medicines are constantly kept in tens of thousands of families. Asa laxative, or purgative, the Mandrake Pills are a standard preparation; while the Pulmonic Syrup, as a curer of coughs and colds, may be regarded as a ■prophylacteric against consumption in any of its forms. . „ Price of the Pulmoflic Syrup and Seaweed Tonic. $1.50 a bottle, or $7.50 a half dozen.

(From Lippincott’s Magazine. Baltimore Beauty. One afternoon, early in April, I walk ed on Baltimore street, with a repre sentative citoyenne, herself and the day alike gracious and beautiful. Now observe, said she, here comes the pret tiest girl in Baltimore! It was as though she said, Behold the most ex travagant women in New York, the most exclusive woman in Philadelphia, the most critical women in Boston, the most mysterious woman in Washing ton. It was as though she said, Now see a sight! I looked, and behold an apparition such as the native, to such visions born, would recognize as pre senting the truest, purest style of that beauty which we describe in a word as Baltimorean. Not the indigenous blonde, conscientiously portrayed by Mr. Fairfield—wiih flaxen hair, skin of alabaster untinted, and very dark eyes; form of exceeding fullness, though not tall; hands and feet that are models of civilization—full, soft, well rounded, yet nervous withal—the former tipped with finger nails as if all the blush of the woman’s heart were concentrated in the ten smooth, elongated, pink gib bouses. No, not the indigenous blonde, who is more than half Virginian, but that rarer product, hybrid and mach less, which results from conditions of climate, sexual selection, and culture strictly local. Dark brown hair, shee ny with the ripple that artists love; large, soft, profound eyes, almond -haped as in J urkish harems, mixed of hazel and a shadowy gray, and pen sive and tender under long fringing lashes; none nearly Grecian, but with more individuality in the outline; lips short, but full and budding and oscu latory; chiu fine and dimpled, and promising to be double in its matron age; brow, temples, cheeks transpar ently fair, and continually coming and going with sly flushes of emotional color; neck, shoulders and arms pre senting, (you may be sworn ) flue ryth mical curves and cunning dimples at every turn, and divinely blending and diffusing misty pinks and whites— A crystal brow, the Moon’s despair. And the Snow's daughter, a white hand; person moderately plump, but elastic and flexile; and movements of neck, shoulders, waist, hips, arms, ankks undulating and insinuating.

Mrs. Wharton in Her Prison Ceil— I Touching: Devotion oflier Daughter Nellie. Baltimore, July 17. On Monday evening last, Mrs. Ellen Gk Wharton, nee JSugent, and widow of Maj. H. W. Wharton, United States army, was placed under arrest in this city, charged with the murder by poi son of Gen. W. Scott Ketcham, the ground of suspicion being that on Sat urday afternoon, June 24, the Gener al had been suddenly taken ill at her house, a pretty littlecottage in Eutaw street, where, as an old friend of the family, he intended to stay for a few days before Mrs. Wharton and her daughter should sail for Europe. On the evening of his arrival he complain ed of being dreadfully ill, retired to bed, and there died. On the same Saturday afternoon Mr. Eugene Van Ness, a bank clerk, also culled at the house, drank a glass of beer, sickened, and was also laid up in the house.— These circumstances excited suspicion, and GeD. Ketchem’s brother-in law had an examination of the dead man’s stomach made by profesor Aiken, who discovered twenty grains of tartar emetic within it While the two sick men w T ere in the house, Mrs. Van Ness, who had been summoned to his bed side, while pouring a milk punch from one glass to another preparatory to giving it to her husband noticed a white sediment in the tirst glass, and when Professor Aiken examined this deposit he found it also to be tariar emetic. These facts were laid before the proper authorities. Investigation followed, and on Monday evening Mrs. Wharton was informed that she vas under arrest, and kept a prisoner in her own house, which was guarded by four policemen. The greatest excite ment prevailed in the community, for the accused lady had always been much respected, all her connections were good, and, outwardly at least, she was the most unlikely person in the city to be seriously suspected of com mitting murder, especially when the wisest quidnunc could invent no good and plausible motive for it. It was not long before it was rtmembered that within four years four persons, Col. Edward Wharton (Major Whar ton’s cousin,) the Major himself, Mis. Wharton’s son, and now Gen. Ketch am had died—under what now seemed suspicous circumstances —under the fatal roof. Puclic opinion was divided, but it cannot be believed that the ma jority, in the excitement of the mo ment, believed that this woman was the murdress of all these persons who died untimely deaths, and she was thus help to be, whether justly or un justly, not only a murdress but a ux oricide and the slayer of her own child. When Mrs. Wharton was arrested she displayed the utmost coolness and presence of mind, merely asking to be allowed to see ner counsel; she was, indeed, apparently the most uncocern ed person in the whole transaction, for when her daughter, Miss Nellie Whar ton, a charming and amiable young la dy, then on a visit to the country, was informed of her mother’s arrest, the became almost mad with terror and ap prehension, which for a long time could not be allayed. It is said that no suspicion rests on the girl or the two colored servants of the household. On Saturday last, at the Criminal Court, the grand jury brought in two presentments against Mrs. Wharton— one charging her with the murder of Gen. Ketcham, and the second with attempting to murder Mr. Van Ness by administering poison on or about the 28th day of June. Four or five days the unhappy woman had been a prisoner in her own house, the au thorities yielding somewhat from the rigor of the law on account of her del icate health. When, however, the grand jury returned the presentments, a messenger was sent to say that at 3:30 o’clock the officers of the law would take her to jail. Accordingly, at the time specified two carriages drove rapidly up to the garden gate, opening on Garden street, krom the first of these came sheriff Albert, Mar shal Gray, and Deputy Marshals t rey i and Rosiman, who entered at the gate, and reappe red in a short time accom panied by Mis. Wharton, her dauga i ter and two friends of the family. Ail entered the carriages, the curtains were drawn, and the parties set ofl in the direction of the jail, followed by an excited but not an indecorous crowd of citizens. The prisoner showed no unnecessary emotion, but displayed the same nerve and self-possession which she has shown ever since tire first breath of suspicion bullied her fair fame. Both she and her daughter were dressed in a deep black. Arrived at the prison walls. Mrs. Wharton alighted and walked compos edly through the yard, up the steps, and entered the reception room, and sat down beside her daughter who, poor girl, tried to conceal her emo tion, although her handstwiehednerv ously and her eyes, rendered preter naturally large by intense and long continued strum upon her nervous sys tem, showed that it was only her wd* that kept her from bursting into tear . They sat in the reception room lor. about three houis, waiting for tbe preparation of the cell which for a long time will be the prisoners only home. It will not be so comfortless as | impecunious prisoners are apt to find S. 11. Smith $ Cos., Proprietors. i their cells, for Mrs. Wharton i* ri.h and has influential friends. It was this fact that O'casiori' d th and 'lny ai messengers had been dispatched if o ob tain such articles as were Mfesired in the decoration and amelioration of the lonely place. The cell in which the prisoner is confined is No. 137, and is on the first tier of the north wing. It is ten feet long by seven aid a half wide, and the ceiling is arched, >v and at its highest point nine feet from the floor. Before she entered it had been cleansed and whitewashed, but with all possible im provements it is not such a place as eveu the craziest woman would poison a man to obtain possession of. Mrs, Wharton, kx>ki»»g through the grated vviudow, may see the tower of the church iu which she wirshipel for years, and of which she is a m mber in excellent standing. This is Emanuel Church. At night she will listen to the wind as it sighs through the trees in the court, and to the leaves as they brush against the bars of her prison, and to the birds who may look in wonderingly upon the lonely woman; - for the trees are green, and one has pushed its upper branches to her cell. While sitting in the reception room Miss Nellie asked that she might be permited to share her mother’s impris onment, not only to cheer her in her loneliness, but to act as b i r nurse, for for the unhappy woman is said to be subject to epilepsy, a fact which her counsel will undoubtdely use with tel ling effect, as by this time the merest tryo in medical jurisprudence knows the connection of the distressing mal ady with tbe ‘insane neurosis.’ The la dy’s family physician, Dr. McSberry,. and Professor Johnson, certified that her health was delicate, and that it would be well that her daughter should attend her. The board of visitors hardly knew how to deal with the re quest, but at last c. included th it for the present at least mother an daugh ter should not lie separated. Shortly after 7 o’clock in the evening the two were locked in the cell, where, on Sun day, they were visited by their old pas tor, the Rev. Dr. Randolph. As I have already said all sorts of rumors nre circulated in regard to the lady’s life, and it is said that the rela tives of her late husband have for sev eral years refused so associate with or visit her, because they suspected that she had poisoned her husband. Her cell is immediately above owe occupied by a half idiotic uogro gir l ! under sen tence of death for the murder of her infant, and next to the one lately oc cupied by Mrs. Marsh, who butchered her three children some tinae ago, and is now confinEd in the Maryland Hos pital. Poor Nellie Wharton acts like a brave girl, cheering her mother as best she can, but as soon as she is out of her sight she acts in the most pite ous way, crying and wringing her hands. She will not even walk in the jail enclosure, where there are birds and flowers and shrubbery, because her mother cannot accompany her. Few visitors are allowed in the cell, and the mother and ch.ld are almost alone.-- From the latter, at least, the sympa thy of the cit y is not withheld. * 'lhe Printer. —The following beau tiful tribute to the followers of the “stick and rule,” is from the pen of Benj. F Taylor, formerly of the Chi cago Journal : “The printer is the adjutant of thought, and this explains the mystery of the wonderful word that can kindle a hope as no song can; that word ‘we’ with a hand-in hand warmth in it— for the author and printer and engin eer together. Engineers indeed! When the Corsicans bombarded Catiz, at a distance of live miles, it was deem ed the very triumph of engineering. But what is the range of this, whereby they bombarded the ages to be ? There at the ‘case’ he stands, and marshals with the lints of forces, aim ed with truth, clothed with immoita’i ty and English. And what can be no bler than the equipage of thought in sterling Saxon— Saxon with a speer or shield therein, and that commissioned, when we are dead, to move grandly on to “the latter sylable of record time.” This is to win a victory from death, for tihs has no dying in it. The printer is called a laborer, and the office of sublime life he is perform ing, when he thus cites the engine that is to fling a worded truth *in grander curve than missiles e’er before oescrib ed, fling it into the bosom of age. He throws off his coat, indeed, but we wonder rather that be does not put his shoes from off Lis feet, for the place wbe eupon he B‘ands is holy ground.” “A little song was uttered some where long ago; it wandered through the twilight feebler than a star; it died uj on the ear. But the printer takes it when it was lying there in s lence, like a wounded bird, and sends it forth from the ark that hi Id it, and it-fP fi on into the futuie with the olive ••braneb , of peace, ana around the world with melody, like the dawning. ,of a spring, morning.” v tears of a beauty are like clouds floating over a heaven of bedimming them a mom nt that they may shine with a brighter lustre than before. , s£<U Tie greatest pleasure of life is love; the greatest treasure is ei chant meat; the greatest luxury is health;, the greatest comfort is sleep; and the best medicine is a true friend.
