SB. SCHENCK'S STANDARD
The standard remedies for all diseases of the
lungs are Schknck's Pulmonic Stbup, Schbnck's
See Wbed Tonic, and Schbnck s Mandrake Pill.s
and if taken before the lungs are destroyed, a
speedy cure is effcted.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenk, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled sucess in the
treatment of pulmonary disease.
The Pulmonic Syrtip ripens the morbid matters
in the lnng9; nature throws it off by easy expect
oration, for when the phlegm or matter is ripe a
slight cough will throw it vff, 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's Man
drake Pills acton the liver, removing all obstruc
tlous, relax the gull bladder, the bile starts freely
una the liver is soon recieved.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative; the alkali of which it is composed
ui'xes wi:n ine 1011a ana prevents sourine. it as
sists the digtistion by toning up the stomach to
healtny condition, so that the fond and the J'ul
monic Syrup will make good blood: then the lungs
heal, ana the patient win surely get well u care
taken to prevt-nt fresh cold.
All who wisn to consult Air. scnenK, citner per
sonally or by letter, can do co at his principal office
corner of sixth and arch Ms., Philadelphia, every
Monday.
tcnenK's medicines are sola dv an arnggists
throughout the country.
AN INCIDENT OF TEE FIGHT.
How Sirs. Logan Conducted Her Hus
band's Senatorial Campaign,
From the Times, Olney, Illinois.
An incident of the recent senatorial
struggle in Springfield will serve to show
the desperation of Logan and his ifriendi
and the illegitimate influences that were
brought to bear in his favor.
Mrs. LiOgan. following a natural impulse
probably, but none the less illegitimate in
such a contest, exerted her brilliant tal
ents and powers ot persuasion, as is well
known, on members of whatever political
faith in her husband's behalf.
Representative Powell with his acconi-
not a few of the applicants are white per-1 plished wife had rooms at the Leland ad
sons. Other prominent colored men. who iacent to Loean's and as a matter of course
the I&dies became acquainted, and al
though Powell was a Democrat of the
straightest sect Mrs. Logan was unceasing
in her solicitations to him, and to Mrs. r.
to influence him, to vote for John, but
without avail. At last, however, Mrs
Powell was won over by her blandish
tnents and that night, Powell, who had been
to a caucus ot his party, arrived at
his room about twelve o'clock. Mrs. Lo'
gan had been on the lookout for him, and
in the charming confidence that had grown
up between the families came to his room
in dishabille and with all the naivete she
could summon to her assistance, said:
" Now, Mr. Powell, you must vote for
John to-morrow, for I have at last sue
ceeded in turning Mrs. Powell."
"Well, madam," said the sound old
Democrat, "I would like to oblige you.
but I will be person&lly responsible for
turning her again before morning!"
Mrs. Logan returned to her room, a sad
der but not mcch wiser woman.
USE SENSE'S
PAIN-KILLING
have been identified with Dolitical
affairs in this District in days when the elec
tive franchise was in existenco are pre
senting applications to the president for
positions ot equal urominence with that
offered Douglas.
Many southern delegations of colored
men visiting the president have petition
ers for similar tavors in the south for
members of their own race, presenting
statements that they are natives of the
places where they desire appointment,
with other circumstances regarded by
them as presenting just claims for official
tavors,
Gov. Pinchback, in an interview with
the president, is quoted as having said
that justice to the whites and mercy to
the blacks alike protested against the re
cognition of the Packard government
The piesident is said to have replied that
he would soon open a clear way to peace
in Louisiana and contentment to the peo
ple of that state.
The German citizens held a large meet
ing last night and adopted resolutions ex
pressing satisfaction with the appoint
ment of Carl Schurz to a cabinet position.
Judge Mackey, of South Carolina, had
a brief interview with the president, to day,
and read him a telegram from Gov, Hamp
ton in which the governor said the pro
ject of a new election was an insult to the
people of the state and to himself. The
governor says he does not wish to be re
cognized; what he desires is that the
troops be removed from the state house;
then the will of the people can be carried
out peaceably.
Tae cabinet holds a meeting this
afternoon to consider important appoint
ments. The will be a call for ten million 5 20's
to day, half million registered and nine
and one-half million coupons.

New York, March 15. Unemployed
workine men of Scranton bave made a
demonstration upon the city council, call
ing upon members when in session, and
deuiandiug an appropriation of $20,000
for public works, that employment may be
given working men. They obtained per
mission to address the meeting, and said if
the council did not do anything for the
po:r they would take the matter into their
own bands; there were five stores along
Lackawana avenue, and they would help
themselves. Loud cheers. This threat
caused great commotion, and Mayor Mc
Kecn, rushing torward, called the speaker
to order and said as chief executive officer
of the city he could not permit such
threats. There was a fearful uproar and
cries of "we will have bread or blood. '
The meeting broke up in wild disorder.
A Result of Obstructed Digestion.
Among the hurtful consequences of
of obstructed digestion, is the impoverish
ment of the blood, and since a deteriative
condition of the vital fluid not only pro
duces dangerous orgeuic weakness, but,
accordiug to the best medical authorities,
sometimes causes asphyxia, it is appar
ent thai to improve the quality of the
blood by promoting digestion and assimila
tion, is a wise precaution. Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is presciely the remedy
for this purpose, since it stimulates
the gastric juices, conquers thnsa billious
and evacaua'ive irregularities which inter
fere with the digestive processes, promote
assimilation of the food by the blood, and
purifies as well as enriches it. The signs
of improvement in health in consequence
of using the Bitters are speedily apparent
in an accession of vigor a gain ia bodily
substance, and a regular and active per
formance of every physical function.
