no use of it. Three doctors had tried their sMll up

words he said were, '-Mr. Barker, I want all that

DR. SCHENCZ S PULMONIC SYRUP
Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. These
medicines have undoubtedly performed more cures
of Consumption than any other remedy known to
the American public. They are compounded of
vegetable ingredients, and contain nothing which
can be injurious to the human constitution. Other
remedies advertised as enres for Consumption,
probably contain opium, which is a somewhat dan
gerous drug in all caes, and if taken freely by con
sumptive patients, it must do great injury; for its
tendency is to confine the morbid matter iu the
systm, which, ol course, must maice a cure impos
sible. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not
to contain a particle of opium; it is composed of
powerful but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungs, liver, stomach and blood, and thus corrects
all morbid secretions, and expel all the diseased
matter from the bodj . These are the only means
byj which Consumption can be cured, and as
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which ope.

genuine cure for Pulmonary Consumption. Each

Interesting' to Tramps. .
The Tramp Law, passed at the last
session of th3 legislature, and one of the
few good laws passed that expensive body,
will go into effect on Sundaylnext.July 1st.
It provides for the only punishment that
can be inflicted upon that numerous float
ing and resideut population known as
tramps, vagabonds, and bummers, and
that punishment is work. Under the laws,
as they previously stood on the statute
books, it was impossible for counties or
cities to put these people to work. AH
they(could do was to fine them, and if they
could not pay the fines, as was most often
the case, tbey boarded the fine out in
idleness at the city's or county's expense
an arrangement that suited them ex
actly. But the new law changes the con
dition of things materially, and for the
better, as far as the industrious, hard
working public is concerned, and under its
provisions, if carried out energetically and
persistently, the specimens of the poor
old tramp will become beautifully' scarce
in the state of Illiaois.
Now let our city authorities procure a
number of heavy iron bails attached to
long chains, and the first tramp found in
the city after the law goes into effect, ar
rest him and put him to work breaking
rock on the streets, cleaning up filth in the
alleys anything to make him work. If
this thing continues that class of humanity
will soon give our city the go-by.
The Tramp.
The tramp is a cross between a camel in
endurance and of pair of seven-etory stilts
in getting over ground. His legs are his
salvation and his feet the foundation of
his fortune. His path through life is full
of troubles and cross-ties. He despises
monopolies and shovels up intense hatred
upon the embankments of grasping, iron
souled railroads. Washwomen are classed
by him among the monopolies, and he en
deavors to crush them by wearing his
so:ks till the heels melt away into nothing
ness and the toes glide away into the emp
tiness of space. : Red liquor is his strong
hold. In it he sees and feels the full swell
of .ecstatic bliss and elegant enioy men t
In three fingers of rye there is a panacea
for every wound. The world may vibrate,
shake and quiver in its convulsive death
throes, the millions of poor, unsaved souls
may moan their .anguish and cry out
aloud for bread and salvation, but the
tramp wiih his three fingers of red liquor
looketh not at the raging storm nor lend-
eth an ear to the bewailing of the multi
tude. He sinketh himself into the-utter
depths of forgetfulness and the three red
fingers trickleth his soul in dreamy ecstacy
the world is his home, the railroad track;
bis place of .business, and the next town
bis highest ambition, lie starts on nis
journey without good-byes and kisses, and
receives no cordial welcome at the end.
He has no friends, not even among bis
fellow tramps, because friends are too
much trouble. He prefers to exourt from
town to town alone, unfettered and fancy
free. Conversation dfttracts from the
beautiful of the surrounding scenery, be
sides two chews eat away a plug of tobacco
sooner than one.
