R CHURCHILL'S SVRUPS (Hypophosv phite of Lime or Soda) for CONSUMPTION.—These Syrups, which have the confidence of all medical mer, are especially recommended in cases of Consumption, Chronic Coughs, and General Debility. They contain two of the principal ingredients necessary for building up the human frame, and which are considered deficient in the above complaints—viz, phosphorus and lime. They are also admirably adapted for children of a weak and delicate habit. Dr Churchill's Compound Syrup of Hypophoaphites is a compound of the hypophospites of lime, iron, soda, potash, etc , and as a general tonlo caDnot be too highly estimated.

Hi£ CAMS HOME TO DIE. ONE DAY in December, 1888, a British tranf port vessel arrived in Gosport. Only a brief look was needed to assure the spectator that she had made the long voyage from ludia. Trere were sold-eis on board-some on leave of absence to visit home, and others eo worn and waste:! that it was piaiu to see why they were comeback from the East io the dear old Island. Of these poor fellow?, a few were able to go on to their friei-ds, while others were just strong enough to beat the journey to the 'ixavy Yaid Hospital Amocg the latter was one to whom we will introduce tho reader. You wouid have fancied him to have been about thirty years of age ; yet the vigor and elasticity of youth were miasing. Disease had done the work of time, and it was but the wreck of a man that entered the hospital doors that day. It was a matter for wonder that he lifed to reach an English poit. Several months later, by accident the writer of the:-e lines heard that toldier's story from bis own l'p.°, and here it is substantially in his own words: "I enlisted in Her Majesty's 51st Regiment, aud was scon ordered out to India, where I arrived on the following Cbri&tmas, and ltft there fcr Burmah October 6, 1886, where I remained eighteen months, being present at Mandalay when King Iheebaw surrendered to our troops. Here my good health began to give way. At first I had a sinking feeling at the pit of the stomach, and was so dull and drowsy I could scarcely ket-p up. I had pain in the right side and under the shoulder blades. My spirits were depressed, and everything seemed sad and melancholy. I couldn't eat, and lay in bed sleepless night after night till I was almost wild for lack of rest. My ekin and eyes turned yellow, as is bo common with Europeans in India. My tongue was badly coated, feet oold and clumsy, stomach sick and upset, vomiting, and constant diarrhoea. In this bad form I lay in bed for four months in 188'. " Both the regimental doctor and a doctor of the Indian Government Baid I was suffering from dy eatery. I was weak as a baby, and passed nothicg but slime from the bowels. No treatment availed to stop the diarrhoea, which waa fast draining the life out of me. Finally I was sent Home, and arrived at Gosport in December, 1888, I lay in the hospital until February, 1889, when / was discharged as incurable, and placed in the Army Reserve.

"I returned to Warboys, in Huntingdonshire (my home), and tried to work. But it was impossible. I vas so emaciated that old acquaintances did not at fiist recognise me. Then they said : ' Hodson, you needn't trouble to buy any more clothes. Tiie only suit you'll require will be a wooden box, 1 " Alter eating, even a little, I was obliged to hurry away from the table because tf the terrible griping, gnawing pains in the stomach and bowels, My father and mother were a armed, and I consulted a doctor at Warboys, but what he gave me had no good effect. " At last it was Mr Kicholl, the chemist, of Warboys (now of Croydon), who s»id to me : ' Hodson, you had better try Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup.' On this I bought a bottle and used it, but I couldn't eee it did any good. Mr Nlcholl said: ' Try it again. I have euoh confidence In it that I will give you the second bottle free of charge.' " He did ec, and before I had taken the half of ihe second bottle I began to feel relief. This was encouraging, and I prooured the third bottle. Before 1 had finished it I had so muoh Bat I was afraid to lisk it, and said No; wait tiil I have ÜBed three bottles mote, for this Mother Seigel's Curative Syru? U doing for me what no medcine in India or England haß d-me yet—it Is healing me from the very depths where I was ill and djing. " So, an you may suppose, I kept right along with Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup until the fifth bottle was gone. Then I presented myself to the astonished people of Warboys as robust, Btrong, and well as I was when I first entered the army. I returned to my work, and my com,' rades looked upon me as one risen from the dead. With eyes full of wonder, they asked •What Las done this for you?' and I answered: 1 1 owe my life and health to Mother Seigel's Curative tsjrup, and am willing that eveiybody in England should hear me say bo.' 1 have never lost an hour's work since, and will gladly reply to letters of inquiry.- John Hodson, Warboyß, Huntingdonshire." Mr Hodson's real disease was indigestion aDd dyspepsia, caused by change of climate, food, and habits. The diarrhoea was one of its symptoms—Nature's effort to get lid of the poisonous matter? in the stomach and bowels, Mother Seigel's Curative Syiup cured the digestive malady, and the symptoms vanished as a necessary consequence.
