k Terrible State OF WEAKNESS.
Spells of Three Months Misery, The Case of Mrs. C. F. PARKER. (By a Reporter.) Mrs. Clara Francie Parker, of No. 109 Forth-street, Dunedin, on being interviewed by our reporter, related a very exceptional experience, which many readers may find personal advantage in reading. V- " Whilst living on the goldfields at Queenstown," saij Mrs. Parker, "I became a martyr to periodical attacks of neuralgia. .9 My doctor said the cold winds off the lake near which we lived were accountable lor my ai incut. Be that as it may, I am of the opinion that the terrible state o. weakness in 10 which jl had sunk had a great deal to do with ,my misfortune. A dreadfully acute lyain, which made me frantic sometimes, started in the side of jny face and spread ■up to my forehead and temples. From .there it pursued its maddening careei ito the back of my head. The agony was po great that I could not think of doing fmy housework, and as the attacks (Usually lasted three months without abatement it is easy to conceive what a frightful wreck I bee-mo. At night the torture was doubly severe, when I could do nothing but turn and writhe in pain. I used to long for. a few hours' sleep, but it never came, and when morning arrived I felt it a relief to get up, although my trembling limbs were almost incapable of supporting- me. My eyes had an incessant burning sensat on behind them, be.ng sometimes as red and hot as coals of fire." > "How did you get through the day. Mrs. Parker?" "In a state of distraction. My mental faculties were so affected that I lhard'y knew what I was doing half the 'time. When the pains were a little moderate I felt an inclination to s'eep when, as soon as I lay down, the agonic* ■returned with greater violence. Oh 1 what a miserable time I had. My jaw -were made sore and tender with a dull dragging pain which put the thought of eating out of the question. The only food I could take was of a milky charac rter, and even that proved too difficult iftf digestion for my s'.omack to retainf was thoroughly worn out and jaded &fy body wasted away and shrivelled up *I,J there was hardly anything left o'.

I wfiS awfully down-hearted and fretful, for it appeared to me that I was destined to atifter like this for ever." .-• "Why so.
