WHAT MR. INGHAM TOLD MR. HEYDEN.

It was a very luoky thing for Mr Heyden that Mr Ingham called to see him just when he did. But it would have been better still if be had done so long before. For Mr Ingham turhed out to be the only man able to give any advice worth a rusb. Lots of other people had talked and suggested things, as they do when they see a house on fire. But it is commonly the firemen who put out the blaze after all. And so Mr Ingham happened to h ave a bit of useful knowledge that nobody else had. And Jndeed the case was very like a fire, although it wasn't a house, you know, it was a man ; namely Mr Heyden himself. Only the day after Christmas (1891) he tdld the story in these very words. "Fifteen years ago," he said, "in December, 1876, I raet with a slight acoident and had great pain in my ankle, whioh at first I thought I had sprained. In a few days the pain moved up to my knee, whilst all the surrounding parts beoarae swollen and puffed up. I could not bear to put my foot on the ground to even let the bed sheet touoh the leg. A doctor who attended me for two months Baid that it was rheumatism, and treated me accordingly. When I got a little better lie sent me to Southport for three weeks. I returned to my work again but had great difficulty in getting about, from time to time I had to leave work, owing to the intense pain. Later I had excrutiating pains in all of my limbs, and joints of my fangures became enlarged and grew out of shape. "Then I consulted another doctor who attended me in several severe attacks. He said my complaint was Chalk Gout. He gave me medicines but said he could not do much fox me, and that in time the disease would kill me. In this way I continued to suffer for fourteen years. During that period I took every gout 1 and rheumatism medicine I beard of, but none gave me more than temporary relief. "In March 1890, I had a bad attack and was bedfast for over two months, when a friend of mine, Mr. Jaires Ingham, of Old Tafford, called to see me. The pain was at its height, and seeing my condition, he said he knew of something that would do me good. He brought me a few .doses in a bottle but refused to say what it was. It gave me so much relief that I Bent my wife to ask him. He replied, ' I will come and tell him all about it.' He soon came and said it was called Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. Upon this I told him I had often heard of it, but regarded it as a quack medicine. I sent at oncn to Burgon's stores in Oxford Street and got a bottle, and after twentyfour hours I felt much better. In a few days I was out of bed and at work, and have never lost a day's work since, nor had any attack of my old enemy. I will gladly answer any enquiries." (Signed) Henby R. Heyden, 28, Booth Street East, Oxford Road, Manchester. Now this statement of Mr. Heyden.s is surprising. The reader wants to know how it can be true, and he has a right to ask. The "explanation is this: — Mr. Heyden was afflicted with rheumatic gout, an almost nniversal complaint, very painful and dangeroas. The cause is a poison in the blood produced as follows: — First the stomach becomes inactive and torpid with indigestion and dyspepsia; more work is thus thrown on the liver than it is able to do ; the overloaded liver fails in the manufacture of urea, leaving it in the form of a solid called nrio acid. This acid, a deadly poison, unites chemically with the soda (an alkali) in the blood, forming orate of sodium, a hard crystal poißon. This poison goes round in the blood current until it is finally; disposed in the muscles and joints, getting them on fire with inflammation and inflicting fearful agony. Continued, the" disease causes chalk stones in the bladder, Bright's disease of the kidneys, and disease of the heart and lungs. All comes from the same source, indigestion and dyspepsia, and are properly symptoms of that ailment. What a pity people don't understand this fact better.

Mother Seigel's Syrup cures by its wonderful action on the stomach and liver, and thus it cared the case abo7e described. It begins »t the right end. Perhaps it would be wise in you to paste this account in your scrap book, or whero yon can find it in time of need.
