The Biggest Bear Story.

The Reno (Nev.) Gazette repeats it thus: “ I’ve fought ’em standin’ and runnin’, but the toughest citizen 1 eve*, ‘lit onto was a black ’un. He was sidin' in the chapparel e&tin’ manzanila berries, when my dog smelt him and went home. I sm aked up and begun aggravatin’ him by shootin’at bis ears and feet. I then took around him, and with three shots ent off his tail. Old Blacky heerd me shootin’, and turnin’ reund see his tail layin’ there. He picked ic tip and looked at the trade-mark, and I see in a minute that war was cornin’. I lit out for a tree, with on]y two cartridges left and him a cornin’. Well, to make a long story short, I shot twice, hilin’ him both times, and he begun to git hot, so he took up the tree after me, and I knocked him down three times before my gun broke. He started on the fourth trip, and I didn’t know

what to do till I thought of my Deringer, which shot a four-ounce ball. I drew her out; tied a string to the trigger, and as old Blacky came up with bis mouth wide open I dropped her in. He hadn’t time to spit her out, and so he swallowed and 1 pulled the string. Off went the guu.and so help me, I never see anything of bear or pistol since." r i * mi ♦ * ii' Dr. Schbhck’s Pmjfojrrc Syrup, Bra W bsd Towiq Mandhakr ThM* medicine* have undoubtedly performed more core* ol Consumption than any otner remedy known t* the American public. They are compounded of vegetable ingredients and contain nothin* which can beinjurion* to the hnman constitution. Other remedies advertised as cares foe Consumption probably contain oplam, which Is • somewhat dangerous drug In all cssas, and. If taken freely by consnmpUve patients. It mast do great injury; for ItM tendency Is to confine the morbid matter in the system, which, of conree',' must make a core impossible. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup Is warranted not to contain a 1 particle of opium. It la composed of powerful hut harmless herbs, which act on the lnqgs, liver, stomach and blood, and thus correct all morbid secretions and expel all the diseased matter from die body. These are the' only means by which Consumption can be cared, and, as Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrnp, Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which operate hi this way. It la obvlons they or* the only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consumption. Bach bottle of thls ; invaluable medicine Is ' accompanied by fall directions. DC. Schenck Is professionally at his principal office, corner Sixth and Arch streets, Phlladelphis, every Mondr.y, where all letters for advice must he addressed.
