HE. SCHENCX'S STANDARD
REMEDIES.
The standard remedies for all diseases of the
lungs are Schbnck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sciibnck's
Seb Wbed Tokio, and Schbnck s Mandrake Piix,s
and if taken before the lungs are destroyed
speedy cure is effcted.
To these three medicines Dr. J. n. Schenk, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled succse in lhc
treatment of pulmonary disease.
The Pulmonic Svrup ripens the morbid matters
in the lungs; nature throws it off by easy expect
oration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slight cough will throw it ff, the patient has rtst
and the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the pulmonic syrup to do this.
Schenk's Sea Weed Tonic must be freely used to
cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck'9 Man
drake Pills act on the liver, removing all obstruc
tions, relax thecal 1 bladder, the bile starts freely
ana tne liver is soon recievea.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative; the alkali or which it is composed
mixes wkii tne rood ana preems souring. It as
sists the digestion by toning up the stomach to
healtny couauion. so that the food and the Pul
monic tyrup will make good blood; then the long
neal, and tne patient will surely get well if car
taken to prevent fresh cold.
All who wish to consult Dr. Schenk, either per
sonally or by letter, can do so at his principal office
corner of Sixth and arch Sts., Philadelphia, every
Monday.
Schenk's medicines are sold by all druggists
mrougaont the country.

Deere & Co. whose name has been upon
the black list over a year, and becu pub
lished in the papers several times, after
an interval of a few weeks is again neg
lecting his family and lying beastly drunk
in the saloons. Saturday noon, when his
wife brought his dinner down for him he
was not at the shop, but " after consider-1
able search she found him at the Western
House saloon drank as a fool, and could
do nothing with him. Thin had occurred !
so often that, in her despair the poor
woman came toMagistrate Swander to
find out if anything could be done about
the matter, where our reporter met her.
She seemed to feel deeply the neglect of
her husband and almost despaired of be
ing able to reclaim him. Why arc such
libels on mankind allowed to run at large?
When a man gets so besotted and lost to
all sense of shame or regard for his family,
who are dependent upon his daily labor for
sustenance, as to leave his work, which
seems to be so pressing that his dinner
must needs be brought to him, and spend
h time and money guzzling whiskey nntil
hi? wife, unable to persuade him. appeals
to the authorities for help, he ought to be
placed in a straight jacket. Would'nt it
be a good idea for the authorities to see
that their commauds were obeyed?
iQ"Another boarding house thief was
before Magistrate Swander this morning.
The facts in the case are as follows: Sun
day morning about 3 a- m-, a tramp by the
name of John Burke.was'admitted into the
Gault House office, by John Downey, a
young man who works there and sleeps in
the office. It was shown this morning that
Downey had been around the saloons
drinking with Burke on Saturday night,
and had been so favorably impressed with
him that he presented him with a coat and
shirt; bat this was not enough for Burke,
so be left before it was light Sunday morn
ing, aud took a hat belonging to Downey,
and an overcoat belonging to Louis Hadden
and went to Davenport. Downev missed
the coat and hat iu the morniug'and follow
ed Lurk over the river, had him arrested,
found the things with him and brought
them back. This morning Marshal Wells,
being informed of the matter, went to Dav
enport and had the police scare him out of
town, and as he left the bridge on the Illi
nois side, gobbled and brought him to Mo
lina, lie professed his innocence of any
intent to steal; said it was all a mistake;
that he thought he was taking the coat
which was given him; and managed to
force a few tears. The court said that a
strict construction of the law would compel
him to bind the prisoner over, but taking
into consideration the value of the goods
stolen, which was almost nothing, and the
expense it would be to the county be would
discharge him. He thanked Magistrate
Swander for his kindness and skipped, ev
idently feeling that be hd a narrow escape
A dirtier, more forbidding looking custom
er has seldom appeared before our police
court and how anv oue with any sort of
awledge of physiognomy could be im
pressed with a story from such a vagabond
is a mystery. Magistrate Swander, bow
ever, knowing how the rule has been with
our county court thought it best to anlici-
