must it contain another parcel addressed to a person other than the addressee of the first-named parcel. If such an enclosure bo discovered, it will be charged with a separate rate of postageThe abundance of the remains of the mammoth is almost incredible. Middendorff reckoned that at least 100 pairs of tusks had been put upon the market yearly during the last two centuries, and from personal observation Nordenskjold is inclined to regard the estimate as too small. It thus appears that in the recent modern trade the tusks of more than 20,000 of these animals of past ages have been collected. An extraordinary ease of bigamy was heard by the Plymouth magistrates recently. Harriett Smallwood was charged with feloniously marrying William John Jones, a sergeant of Marines, her former husband being still alive. William Smallwood was present; but it was proved that when he married the prisoner he was wedded to Julia Grey. The latter gave evidence, stating that she likewise re-married, believing that Smallwood, who went to China, was dead. The magistrates, expressing their belief that Jones and Smallwood had between them hatched up a case against the woman, discharged her and ordered Smallwood into custody for bigamy.
STARTLING EVENT IN A VILLAGE. To the Editor of Saturday Myht, Birmingham. I recently came into possession of certain facts of so remarkable a nature, that I am sure you will be glad to assist in making them public. The following letters were shown to me, and 1 at once begged permission to copy them for the Press. They come from a highly responsible source and may be received without question. MtiSSAGB feom Geoege James Goatling, L.D.8., E. 0.5.1., Ph. 0.1., Licentiate in Pharmacy and Dental Surgeon. Stowmarket, July 18th. 1889. To Mb Whiie, The enclosed remarkable cure should, I think, be printed and circulated in Suffolk. The statement was entirely voluntary, and is genuine in fact and detail. G. J. G. “To,,the Proprietors of Mother Seigel’s Syrup. “ Gentlemen, —The following remarkable cure was related to me by the husband Mary Ann Spink, of Finborough, Suffolk, was for over twenty years afflicted with rheumatism a. i neuralgia, and although comparatively a young woman at the time she was attacked (she is now fifty), she was compelled, in consequence, to walk with two sticks, and even then with difficulty and pain. About year and a half ago she was advised to try Mother Seigel’s Syrup, and after taking three bottles and two boxes of Seigels’ Operating Pills, the use of her limis were restored , and she is now able to walk three miles “to towmarket with ease, frequently doing ’the distance in three-quarters of an hour. Any sufferer who doubts this story \ can fully ascertain its truthfulness by paying a visit to ..the village and enquiring of they villagers, who will certify to the facts, “ Appended is the husband’s signature to the statement. (" R. Spink.) “ G. J. Goatling, “ Ipswich Street, “ Stowmarket.” This is certainly a very pitiable case, acd the happy cure wrought by this simple but powerful remedy, must move the sympathy of all hearts in a common pleasure. This poor woman had been a cripple for twenty of her best years; years in which she should have had such comfort and enjoyment as life has to give. But, on the contrary, she was a miserable burden to herself and a source of care to her friends. Now, at an age when the rest of us are growing feeble, she, in a manner, renews her youth and almost begins a new existence. What a blessing and what a wonder it is! No one who knows her, or who reads her story, but will be thankful that the good Lord has enabled men to discover a remedy capable of bringing about a cure that reminds us—we speak it reverently —of the age of miracles. It should be explained that this most remarkable cure is due to the fact that i rheumatism is a disease of the blood. Indigestion, constipation, and dyspepsia cause the poison from the partially digested food to enter the circulation, and the blood deposits it in the joints and muscles. This is rheumatism. Seigel’s Syrup corrects the digestion, And so stops the further formation and deposit of the poison. It then removes from the system the poison already there. It is not a cure-all. It does its wonderful work g tirely by its mysterious action upon the digestive organa. when we remember that nine-tenths of our ailments arise in these organs, wo can understand why Seigel’s Syrup cures so many diseases that appear to be so different in their nature. In other words rheumatism and neuralgia are but symptoms of indigestion, constipation, and dyspepsia.
