REMARKABLE CURE Under the above heading the 'Doncaster Reporter ' of July 6, 1887, publishes the following in its editorial columns : Our readers may recall tbo circumstance of a young clerk, named Arthur Richold, falling insensible on the Wheatley lane in this town some time ago, and being picked up, as he continued perfectly helpless, and taken in a cab by two gentlemen to the office of F. W. Fisher, Esq., the solicitor who employed him. On restoring him to consciousness it was ascertained that he was afflicted with what seemed to be an incurable disease. When he was able to speak he said he had been to his dinner and was on his way back to his work, when suddenly his head was in a whirl and he fell in the street like a man who is knocked down. On coming to hiß | senses in the solicitor's office he thought what this might mean, and feared he was going to have a fit of i'lness, which we all know is a very dreadful thing for a poor man with a family to caro for. With this in his mind, he at once sought the best medical advice, telling the doctors how he had been tt.tta.ckeJ.. Tliey questioned him, and found that his present malady was exhaustion of the nervous system, resulting from general debility, indigestion, and dyspepsia of a chronic nature. This in turn had been caused by confinement to his desk and grief at the loss of dear friends by death. The coming on of this strange disease, as described by Mr Richold, must be of interest both to sick and to well. He had noticed for several years previously, in fact, that his eyes and face began to have a yellow look; there was a sticky and unpleasant slime on the gums and teeth in the morning ; the tongue coated; and the bowels so bound and costive that it induced that most painful and troublesome ailment —the piles. He says there was some pain in the sides and back and a sense of fulness on the right side, as though the liver were enlarging; which proved to be the terrible fact. The secretions from the kidneys would be scanty and high-colored, with a kind of gritty or sandy deposit after standing. These things had troubled Mr Richold a long time, and after his fall in the street he clearly perceived that the fit of giddiness was nothing more than a sign of the steady and deadly advance of the complaint, which began in indigestion and dyspepsia. His story of how he went from one physician to another in Bearch of a cure that his wife and little ones might not come to want is very pathetic and touching. Finally he became too ill to keep his situation, and had to give it up. This was a sad calamity. He was appalled to think how he should be able to live. But God raised up friends who helped to keep the wolf from the door. He then went to the seaside at Walton-on-the-Naze, but neither the change nor the physicians who treated him there did any good. All being without avail, he visited London, with a sort of vague hope that some advantage might happen to him in the metropolis. This was in October, 1885 How wonderful, indeed, are the ways of Providence, which dashes down our highest hopes and then helps us when we least expect it. While in London he stated his condition to a friend, who strongly advised him to try a medicine which he called MOTHER Seigel's Curative Syrup, saying it was genuine and honest, and often cured when everything else had failed. He bought a bottle of a chemist in Pimlico, and began using it according to the directions. He did this without faith or hope, and the public may therefore judge of his surprise and pleasure when, after taking a few doses, he felt great reliif. He could eat better; his food distressed him less ; the symptoms we have named abated; the dark spots which had floated before his eyes like smuts of soot gradually disappeared, and his strength increased. Before this time his knees would knock together whenever he tried to walk. So encouraged was he now that he kept on using Mother Seigel's Curative STRur until it ended in completely curing him. In spoaking of his wonderful recovery Mr Richold says it made him think of poor Robinson Crusoe, and his deliverance from captivity on his island in the sua; and added; " But for Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup the grass would ) now be prowing over my grave." Our readers can rest assured of the strict j truth of all the statements in this most remarkable case, as Mr Richold (now residing at Swisß Cottage, Walton-on-the-Naze) belongs to one of the oldest and most respected familirs in the beautiful village of Long Melford, Suffolk, and his personal character is attested by so high an authority as the Bev. C. J. Martyn, rector of that parish, besides other excellent names. We have deemed the case of such importance to the public as to justify us in giving this short account of it in our columns.
