AN ALARMING DISEASE AFFLICTING A NUMEROUS CLASS.

The disease commences with a slight derange* meut of the stomach, but, if neglected, it in time involves the whole frame, embracing the kidney, liver, pancreas, and, in fact, the entire glandular system, and the afflicted drags out a miserable existence until death gives relief from suffering. The disease is often mistaken for other complaints; but, if the reader will ask himself the following question, he will be able to determine whether he Himself is one of the afflicted :—Have I distress, pain, or difficulty iu breathing after eating ? Is there a dull, heavy feeling, attended by drowsiness! Have the eyes a yellow tinge ? Does a thick, sticky mucous gather about the gums and teeth in the mornings, accompanied by a disagreeable taste? Is the tongue coated ? Are there pains in the sides and back ? Is there a fullness about the right side as if the liver were enlarging? Is there costive ness? Is there vertigo or dizziness when rising suddenly from a horizontal position ? Are the secretions from the kidneys highly coloured, with a deposit after standing? Does food ferment soon after eating, accompanied by flatulence or belching of gas from the stomach ? Is there frequent palpitation of the heart 1 These various symptoms may not be present at one time, but they torment the sufferer in turn as the dreadful disease progresses. If the case be one of long standing, there will be a dry, hacking cough, attended after a time by expectoration. In very advanced stages the skin assumes a dirty brownish appearance, and the hands and feet are covered by a cold, sticky pc spiration. As the liver and kidneys become more and more diseased, rheumatic pains appear, and the usual treatment proves entirely unavailing against this latter agonising disorder. The origin of this malady is indigestion or dyspepsia, i ..id a small quantity of the proper medicine will remove the disease if taken in its incipiency. It is most important that the disease should be promptly and properly treated in its first stages, when a little medicine will effect a cure, and even when it has obtained a strong hold the correct remedy should be persevered in until every vestige of the disease is eradicated, until the appetite has returned, and the digestive organs are restored to a healthy condition. The surest and most effectual remedy for this distressing complaint is "SeigePs Curative Syrup," a vegetable preparat.on sold by all chemists and medicine vendors throughout the world, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, 17, Farringdon-road, London, E.C. or the wholesale agents, Kempthorne, Prosser k Co., New Zealand Drug Co. (Limited), Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. This Syrup strikes at the very foundation of the disease, and drives it, root and branch, out of the system.

The Bad and Worthless

are never imitated or counterfeited, This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and l>egan to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make money on the credit and name of H. B. Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word " Hop" or " Hops" were used in the way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remed : es or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word " Hop" or " Hops" in their name, or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white label, and Dr. Soule's name blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeits.
