NOW UP AND NOW DOWN.

Notice the slender column of mercury in your thermometer. To-day it is longer than it waa yesterday ; to-morrow it may be longer atill, or much shorter ; you can't tell in advance. So it varies with the amount of heat in the atmosphere. Very good ; bnt wo all knew that before yon say, lake, note of another measuring instrument, then; one that jou carry about whithe^rsoever yon go. We often hear one person say of another "His apriits are , very murourial," meaning that they rise or fall under slight, influences. But othera have protracted periods of depression of spirits, sometimes threatening permanent melancholia. In fact, instances of this kind are getting to be alarmingly common, and any suggestions as to the canse and the remedy must bo welcome to society at large. Speaking of a recent illness of her own, Mrs Ha,?ar Perciral says the doctor pronotinced her ailment to be " nervous debility." The phrase is familiar and ex■jresiivo and the doctor used it in trio ordinarily accepted sense After all we seem io need more light. Perhaps we shall get it by turning a leaf backward and finding out how the trouble began. In July, 1889, says the lady, I felt strangely weak and out of spirits. I could scarcely persuade myself to eat anything, and when I did the food caused mo much distress in the stomach ami pnin in the chest. Neither did I get any strength from it, but grew more weak and nervon3. Later on I had freqneut nttacks of dizziness and fa nting fits, which would come upon mo in the street, so that 1 often came near falling to the ground. Sometimes I had two or three such attacks in a single day, The doctor said I had nervous debility, but the medicine he gave me did no good. " Better and worse I suffered in this manner for abont three years, no treatment availing to relieve me. At Easter of 1b92 my mother brought me a bottle of medicine of the same kind that had cured her of liver complaint. 1 began using it, and in a short time I couli eat better, and my food digested without giving me any trouble or discomfort. I grew stronger, the fainting fits gradually ceased, and I regained my health. (Signed) llagar Fercival, 25, Liud street, Country Koad, Walton, Liverpool, July 19th, 1893." In a letter dated November 30th, 1592, and written at bis home. 142 Shepherd's Bush Koad, London W, a correspondent states that in the yoar 1883 he fell into a condition of nervous debility. He took medicines in plenty, but grew worse and worse notwithstanding. The early peculiarities of his case were exactly the same aa in the case of Mrs Percival, abovenamed. "One day," he declares, a friend of mine Mr Charles Swan, of King's street, told me of a medicine from the use of which his sister had derived great benefit under like circumstances. I at once began taking it, and before I had finished one bottle the pain and distress left me, my nerves were steady, and I gained strength. After I b&d uaed three bottles 1 was in aa good health u I was before the attack the previous spring. Appreciating the value of a remedy which proved able to do what no other could accomplish, I am perfectly willing to have the fact made public (Signed) Frank William Deacon.' The nirvoua depression in both those caso9, ac in most others, was the direct consequence, of the circulation of impnri ties of the blood. The extreme molan choly and distortion of judgment witnessed in hypochondriacs arises from the same canse ; and (this point is Jor your memory) the cause underlying all is iudi« gesiton and dispepsia, which creates theße impurities in the stomach and scattersthem through tho system. Io have strong uerrea we must have pure blood ; to have pure blood we must have perfect digestion, and to have that we mast do what these two people did, übo Mother Seigels Curative Syrup. They use4 it as soon as they heard of it. Warned by their needless suffering you will use it the moment you feel the first symptoms fo the coming evil.
