AN ALARMING DISEASE AFFLICTING. A NUMEROUS CLASS,

The disease commences with a slight derangement of the stomach, but, if neglected, it mi hme involves the whole frame, embracing the Knlneys, liver, pancreas, and, in fact, the entire "l.nnlular system, and the afflicted drags out a. i.i'-eraJ.le existence until death gives relief from •.ini'uring. The disease is often mistaken for ..U.vr Complaints; but if the reader will ask lii'iivlt the following questions, he will be able lo •Iftorniine whether lie himself is one of the iiiiliur.'d :— Have I clUlre.ss, pain, or difficulty in bn-aljnng after eating? I* there a dull, heavy fueling attended by drowsiness ? Have the> eye-, y yellow tinge? Docs a thick, stickymucous gather about the gums and teeth in themornings, accompanied by a disagreeable taste fr Is the tongue coated '! Is there pain in theside* and bai-k ? Is there a fullness about tht: right side as if the liver were enlarging ? Isthere costivene.ss ? Is there vertigo or dizzi- • ness when rising suddenly from a horizontaJi position ? Are the secretions from the kidneys*scanty and 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 ? 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. la very advanced stages the skin assumes a dirty brownish appearance, and the hands and' feet are covered by a cold, sticky perspiration. As the liver and kidneys become more and more diseased, rheumatic painsappear, and the usual treatment proves entirely unavailing against this latter agonihingr disorder. The origin of the malady is indiges- - tion or dyspepsia, and a small quantity of th&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 wilfc effect, a cure, and even when it has obtained a. strong hold the correct remedy should be persevered in until every vesitge of the diseasesis eradicated, until the appetite is returned, and the digestive organs restored to a healthy condition. The surest and most effectual remedy for this distressing complaint is "Sejgel's* Curative Syrup," a vegetable preparation sold?; by all Chemists and Medicine Vendors throughout the world, and by the proprietors, A. JL White (Limited), 17 Parringdon rond, London*, E.C. This Syrup strikes at the very foundation.' of the disease, and drives it, root and branchy out of the system.

The parties concerned, including the landlord of the hotel in which it occurred, are being, proceeded' against.
