What Shall We Do

It Is no wonder that we hear this question on every corner. So many are dying suddenly of diseases of the brain in these days that everyone is alarmed, and is asking: “ What shall we do?” There is alarm on account of dizziness of the head, a whirling sensation when rising up suddenly, a bad, “ all-gone” sensation at the pit of the stomach, like the gnawing of an ulcer, with a feeling like a load after eating, pains in the back, sides and chest, at times, with costive bowels, scanty, high-colored urine, sometimes voided with pain, appetite poor, and when food is eaten it oftentimes distresses; the skin, alter a time, becomes dark, cold and clammy, eyes sunken and tinged with vellow, spirits'dejected, with evil forebodings. When any of these symptoms ,are present no time should be lost in usings proper remedy. The one that we have known to o.pcrate with the most certainty is the Shaickk Extract ok Roots ok Curative Syrup (not a patent medicine), sold by Druggists and A. J. WTiite, 319 Pearl street, New York Schbnck’B Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Puls.—These deservedly cele brated and popular medicines have effected a revolution in the healing art, and proved the fallacy of several maxims which have for many years obstructed the progress of medical science. The false supposition that “ Consumption is incurable” deterred physicians from attempting to find remedies for that, disease, and patients afflicted with it. reconciled themselves to death without making an effort to escape from a doom which they supposed to he unavoidable. It is now proved, however, that Consumption can be cured, and that it has been cured in a very great number of cases (some of them apparently desperate ones) by Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup alone; and in other cases by the same medicine in connection with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, one or both, according to the requirements of the case. Dr. Sclienck himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted good health for more thanr forty years, was supposed. at one tittle, to be arithe very gate of death, his physicians having pronounced his case hopeless. and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured by the afo'esaid medicines, and, since his recovery, many thousands similarly affected have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with the same remarkable success. Full directions accompany each, making it not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr. Rchcnc.lt unless patients wish their lungs, examined, and for this purpose he is professionally at his priheipal office, comer Sixth mid Arch Streets, PhUi«lelphia, every Monday, where all letters for advice must be addressed. Schenck's medicines ere ■old by all druggists. Economy. —You will save money by using Procter tfc Gamble's Original Mottled German Soap. It will not waste nor become soft like ordinary yellow soap when used in warm water, jiarjs it cheapened with articles injurious to clothes. Remember, you obtain a full on e-pound bar if you purchase their brand. To protect their brand from imitator* Procter & Gamble patented it, and the patent was sustained in the United States Courts. Examine the stamp on the bars when you buy. Take their Soap oidy. Gentian waa our grandmothes’ hobby, foi a tonie, and no bitter would be considered complete without it; hence it enters into nearly all. But experience has proved that it is injurious to the stomach if frequent!' used. A far better tonic is found in Guar fit Bitter* The New York County (Nation»s3B|ipk has declared a dividend of 100 per cent., in conseqtience of the statute providing for a local tax of 8 per cent, on nil-plus bank capital. This bank had a surplus of $325,000 and a fixed capital of $200,000. In copper utensils, if the has worn off, have it immediately replaced.
