Information having been conveyed to the Ornette till tMr. McCarthy hadi ccovendfiom A Very Serious illness, we at once detailed a reporter to make full enquiries into tho matter, and also to personally interview McCarthy himself on the ‘subject. When our reporter arrived at McGrath’s Hill, near Wiivls-r, he found whom he sought, powerfully wielding a s’edge hammer in his forge. The way '.hat Mr. Mcf'ar hy lifted up the heavy sledge as though it weighed bin a few ounces quite astonished our reporter, for he had expected to find the blacksmith i.i A Weak State of Health. “ Hew do you feel, asked our reporter?” “ Clever felt 1 otter in my ’iff,’’ rc> lied, the blacksmith, and lie pul d< w;i his hammer and entered straight away into a comersaline. “You ask me what was the matter with me,” said Mr. McCarthy, “well, that is what no one could tell mo. My ihuess came upon mo as unexpectedly Ac a Thunderbolt One day I was working in the forge when I was seized with a violent headache. 1 had ro at once put down my tools aud go into the house.

Howl did long for it, if but for half-an-hour. Mo ore who has not suffered as 1 did can have the faintest idea of the advantage of proper sleep.” “ What effect had this want of sleep upon your nerves ?” “ The very worst. I began to get honiMy nervous. I couldn’t hear the sight of strangers. The moat trilling noises would send me into A Fit of Trembling.

Influenza is a constantly recurring epidemic in the colony, and is so insidious in its action that many people are inclined to take but little notice of it when its attacks them. They attempt, by extra exertion, to throw off the lassitude that is one of the prominent symptoms of the disease, and t in the meantime the malady is increasing. The tonic qualities of TUSSICURA have been of the highest value in these cases, strengthening the system and soothing the nerves, and have effected a cure in many instances where other rein dies have tailed. Long-standing cases of Asthma have also been immediately relieved by a few doses o f the mixture.
