THE ENGINES OF SHIPS AND OF MEN.

In tho month of Msrob, the great And boautiful steamship "City of Paris," while on her vovago from New York to Liverpool, met with an accident by whioh hor engines were completely disabled, leaving her belptesn on the sea. She carried a Urge number of passengers, and great anxiety was felt concerning her in Europe and Arnorioa. How she was finally towed into Queenstown Harbour will be remembered by the public. 11 Well, what of it P" you say. "They afterwards found ont how it happened, mid repairod tho engines, and no lives were lost." Very trno, bat wait a moment. BeGaago you never go to tea, do yon think the sudden destrnotion-ota'pmp's engine has no lcnson for yon P How shortBighted men are ! Did you over lio on your bed at borne, or on a cot in a hospital; helpless at a log? What ailed yon P Home ditosm What la diieaia ? It ja an accident to your vital machinery.

Do you see the iUbstrattonP .*;' - :, Sometimes a -.man's maohinory is never right (rpm tM^ionr of hit burtb. Here, la 1 °« short story 'ope mapiuHa about himself whioh will show whif we mean. H$ aayi: "One ship Is never weak beoause another is, but a baby may be weak because it* parents were, or some' other of its ■aoosters. It is spoken of iv the family that when I was an Infant, I did nothing but sleep.' Now, a boaltby infant ougb to sleep moet of tho time, but! not all the timd. Ho should UughVplay*, ory, biok, 'and. take notice' of things. My mother r was bothered about' it, and saw tbe.dnctor, who said it was owing to Mho sluggish btato of my liver. Nevertheless, I lived and Rrew up as millions of children) do. But inherited disease maYes Its mark sooner or later, according to oiroumstanoss. " About fivo years ago I began to feel bad. I didn't know what was tho matter with me. I had a bad taste In my mouth, a alimy tongue, and felt languid and tired, and had no ambition for work. My appetite failed, and when I did eat, under a sort of compulsion, I had great pain after It. I went on in this way until tbo spring of 1888, when I had a very severe attack, aud was treated in Bartholomew's Hospital for some time. But I came out still weak, and a little later on I was so bad I broke down completely, and took to my bed. Matters now looked veiy serluus for mo. ' The first dootor who oame to see me was not able to give any relief, and. my people'fetohed another, as'wy condition had become alarming. I (rot worse^ud was in great agony. I had pain«":ajl over me, but more particularly in the bowels, where tho p»in was intense. The bowels were atopped or onnstipaled, and the dootor seemed puzz cd. Ono day he said, 'I cannot account for your condition.' I now began to think what was best to be done. Yet what oould I doP " I had heard of a medicine called Ilother Seigel's Curative Syrup, whioh was said to be a most remarkable cure for deep-seated and chronic complaints whero all other remedies were unavailing, but I had never tried it, and why should I believe in It P Yet bow strangely we are sometimes led into paths we have never travelled before 1 " About this time I picked up a newspaper, and read of a caio similar to my own that had been cured— so the wrltor said— by Mother Solgel's Syrup. I decided to risk It, and tent over to Mr ' Dyer, tho chemist, in Aore Lane, West Brixton, and got a bottle, and in ten minutes after taking the first dose I felt relief. "In my oxoitouient and satisfaction I declared, This is the right thing ! "After taking six bottles I found myself in perfect health. I am a new man. I Dover was in better health in my lifo, and all the members of my family think of my cure as all the more wonderful owing to my. having Buffered with liver complaint, from my infancy. I will gladly answer any inquiries about Mother Seigel's Syrup, and what it did for mo." (Signed) W. Goldspink, 12G, Acre Lane.Brliton, ond 19, Taoh brook Street, Pimlioo. Mr Goldspink is a pork butoher, and is well known and bigbly res poo ted. In addition to his inherited weakness of tho livor he suffered from deep-Bcated indigestion and dyspepsia, with an aoute attack of constipation, a dangerous and often fatal complication, For this almost universal malady — often mistaken for othor disoases— Seigol's Syrup is tho only remedy to bo rolicd upon. Look in tho papers and read tho testimony of witnesses from John O'Groat's to Land's End.
