GOLD AND BLOOD.

Many years ago I knew a man who expended a great part of a large fortune in . buying gold, in coin and in bars. This he molted, and with human blood and other unique ingredients, laboured secretly to prepare a mixture that .should arrest all disease, renew vitality, and prolong life indefinitely. I need hardly say that he failed. Not only did ho fail, but one day an explosion took place in his laboratory which destroyed the fruits of his toil and left him .senselesß and badly wounded amid the 'wreck. The rest of his days were passed- in an asylum. Yet he was not the first man who tried that same experiment not by thousands. To find the elixir of life was one of the main purposes of the science of alchemy. the barbaric ancestor of the modern science of chemistry. But all that is now discredited. Ho doctor or student of healing even pretends to possess or to seek an essence of life. What i3 undertaken, however, and successfully, is to ascertain the truth about nature's functions, and to help her perform them when they are impeded by disease. Illustrations of what can be done on this line are plentiful. Here is one : "Twelve years ago," says Mrs Eliza Matcham, of Armitage House, Sutton-on-Hull, " I had an attack of rheumatic fever. . At the same time I had a bad taste in the mouth, poor appetite, and pain and weight at the chest after eating I frequently spat up a quantity of greasy, fatty matter. Later 1 was afflicted with rhematism in the hands and feet. Thn • I fell into a state of debility, which continued year after year. I spent a great deal ;of money in doctoring, all to no purpose. Finally I was inauccd to try your medicine. In a short time my food agreed with me, the sickness ceassed, I grew stronger, and the rheumatism by degrees 'abated.- Now l)y taking your medicine occasionally I keep in good health. (Signed) Mra Eliza Motcham, June 2nd, 1893." "For some .time previous to 1887,' writes another, " I was troubled with a digestive disorder. In tho autumn of that year (1887) I got a sevre cold, which brought on rheumatism and lumbago. I had great pain in the back and also in the joints. I consulted a doctor, who gave medicines, and advised me;. to go to Buxton. I did so, but lam bound to say obtained little benefit from it. "In January, (1888, 1 had another attack of rhßumatio fever, which brought me down into a very low and feeble condition. •-'' For days and days together I was unable to eat or sleep. It was only by hardship and pain that I eot about at all. Whilst jon a visit to Little Doivnham, Cambridgeshire, some friends told me of the medicine furnished by you, I used it, and soon found relief, and gained strength. Cheered up and encouraged by this, I continued |taking it, and now, by an occasional dose, I keep wholly free from*rheutnatism and other troubles. (Signed) Philip HopkiD, 20, Maude-st., Grimsby, November 14th, 1893." The eccentric man [alluded to in|lho first part of this article failed to curoany disease with his odd brew. It was costly too, as I said. Blood is cheap enough, but bars of gold come high. Ee was a ~ . fanatio and a fool. . ._ But here we have two instances in {ugh rheumatism, a, common and dan-

gerous ailment, was cured by Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, a remedy made not from blcod and gold, but from the healing herbs of the fields and forests. And why was it cured thus so speodly and with such seeming ease ? Because rheumatism is nit a disease of itself, but a symptom of indigestion and dys- r pepsia. It is this universal plague that i tho Syrup [scatters and drives away its „ children {following after. Thus wo keep ( our blood in our veins and our gold — if ne have any— in our pockets. , 1

No man, oays a nrriter'of ; the 17th century, " was ever written out of reputation but by himself." The same with inanimate things. No first-class article ever depreciated save by the cupidity or carelessness of ' those producing it. To have surmounted a human weakness of this nature is something obe proud of. The demand for Walker's Whisky is enormous, yet . Walker's remains the best.
