On Monday, Noveinbor 24th, 1800, the fiwrieuu paperd published the following newt; item:— " Mrs fc-anih S. Heasier, oi No. b/u, Last One Hundred and Thirty-fourth street, Kew York hli«t »"d killed hc-rself yesterday moriiinsr. £*'" v™ a lud - v u£ excellent ohßMctti- and hi«h booial pocitioc an.l a nifuibor OX 1h. 5 3i-v.

very active in various public and private charities. Since lafct July bhe had suffered fearfully from indigestion and dyspepsia, which brought on melancholia and then a kind of insatiity, under tho influence of which sht; took licr own life." Here is another stjry, not go tragical, but -with the same laorai. Tins nar; i.tor telit< it of hwneolf. -'MwMy," he "we dread ;-nu! fear death, yet one; I prayed to die, and the r«.-;uson wan hi thin vvi.-e. Up to 'Christinas, 1886, i hud been a healthy mau, but at that tinns (a period of rejoicing with so many) 1 fi-It depress!, languid, and tired. My appailu Icit ffiu, and I whs much ()ihtri-R««l after iiui'ig tlio lightest food. My skin and eyes becamo tinged with a da:k yellow color, and the kidney secretion was like blood. Die pain in my stomach vr."s a-most unbearable and often lasted from li to 14 lioum without intermission. Souieumu:' I wits in puin night and day, ami kus m> bud thut my wife bud to sit up wit!, mo through tho uigbt. I was constantly »:ck, ai.d troubled with a stomach cough, ami expectorated a quantity of green phlegm. " In spite of warm clothing and overy comfort, I was at.vays chilled; the cold shivers running through mo us if my blood were thin and poor. I could take no solid food ; I lived on soupn, milk puddiisge &c, and after each meal 1 hat! empty, gnawing windy pains at the stomach, -.vhioh nothing relieved. " After a time an intolerable itching ot the skin spread nil over me, as if my blood were poisoned. Our family physician attended mo for about a year. Acting on his advice I went to Harrogate, where I consulted another doctor, and drank the waters, but feeling worse I returned home. The bath attendant at Hatrogate and others told me I was suffering from blond poinouiug, but tbia the doctors never mentioned. The first doctor said it was tho passing of gal'stouea that gave me such dreadful pain. j "I now consulted an eminent specialist at Manchester who confirmed what the other doctor had told me, but none of them afforded me any relief. "In this miserable way I dragged on for six months more, and became so much reduced I could scarcely put one foot before the other, and so thin that the rings fell of my fingers and tolled on the floor. I was in such , pain that / prayed to die, and one of the doctors told a friend of mine I could not recover. "In August of last year (1890), whilst my sufferings were at the worst, a book was sent to me by post telling of a medicine called Mother Seigel'e Curative Syrup. I determined to try it. and cent to Mr Evans, Chemist, Lymm, for a supply. After taking the first bottle, I felt a little better, ! and by persevering with the remedy I recovered my appetite, and gradually gained strength. My natural color is now returned and I feel as well as I ever did in my life ; in fact, as well as I did when a boy. I can eat any kind of food without inconvenience, and have gained SO pounds in weight during the past three months. I may add that previous to taking this medicine I was co altered that my friends, and even my pupils, scarcely reoognised mo. I te 1 ! every one what Seigol' s Syrup did for me. The gentleman who makes the foregoing statement is a person of poeition and known to all the people of Lymm. He declines to permit the publication of bia name, but the perfect truth of what is here related is vouched for by Mi: J. H. Evans, the chemist above named. The case was an aggravated one of indigestion and dyspepsia and its natural consequences. The whole system had been poisoned and disordered by the acids engendered by the fermentation in the stomach, and, had not Seigsl's Syrup come to the rescue just as it did, a fatal result must have followed in a brief lime.
