What is this Desease that is Coming Upon Us ?

Like a thief at night it steals in "upon us un awares. Many persons have pains about the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back. They feel dull and sleepy ; the mouth has a bad taste, especially in the morning. A sort of sticky " slime collects about the teeth. The appetite is poor; There is a f ccli lg like a heavy load on thestomach ; sometimes a faint all-gone Bensation at the pit of the stomach which food does not satisfy. The .eyes are sunken, the hands and feet become cold and feel clammy. After a while a coa^h sots in, at first dry, but after a few 'months it is attended with a greenish coloured expectoration. The afflicted one feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable, and gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is a giddiness, a sort of whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bowels become costive ; the ekin is dry and hot at times ; the blood becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yellow, the urine is scanty and high-coloured, depositing a sediment after standing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste, aud sometimes with a sweetish taste ; this is frequeatly attended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes impaired with spots before the eyes ; tbere is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our population has this disease in some of its varied forms. It has been found that medical me\i have mistaken th c nature of this disease, Some'have treated it for a liver compliant, otheia for kidney disease, etc' etc. but none of the various kinds of treatment have been attended with success, because the remedy should be such as to act harmoniously upon each one of these organs, and upon the stomach as well ; for in Dyspepsia (for this is really what the disease is) all of these organs partake of this disease and require a remedy that will act upon all at the same time. Seigel's Curative Syrup acts like a charm in this class of complaints, giving almost immediate relief. The following letters from chemists of standing in the community where they live show in what estimation the article is held. John Archer, Harthill, near Sheffield :~I can confidently recommend it to all who may be suffering from liver or stomach complaints, having the testimony of my customer?, who have derived great benefit from the Syrup and PiUa. The sale is increasing wonderfully. Geo. A. Webb, 141, York Street, Belfast t— I have sold~a large quantity, and the parties have testified to its being what you represent 'c, 8. Metcalfe, 65. HigHgftte, Kendal;— -I have alwaya great pleasure in recommending the Curative Syrup, tor I have never known a case in which it h»8 ros relieved or cured, and I have sold many grosses. Robt. G. Gould, 27, Higtt'Street, Afldovw »-» I have always takea a great interest ia yottc medicines and I have recommended thoffit as t have found numerous cases of cure from their tise» Thomas Chapman, West Auckland :— I find that the trade 6teadily increases. 1 sell more of your medicines ilwn any other kind, N. Darroll, Clun, Salop :— -All who bay it are pleased, and recommend it.

Jos. Balkwill, A.P.-*., Eingsbr'dge t—The public seem to appreciate their great value.

A. Armßtead, Mssiket Street, Dalton>in» Furness : — lt is needless for me to say that jour valuable medicines hare great sale in this district — greater than any other I know of } giving great satisfaction. Robt. Lame, Meiksbarm — t ca&"jwell recommend tho Curative Syjrup from having proved its efficacy for indigestion myself. Friockheimj Arbroath, Forfarshire, Sept. 23, 1882.

Dear Sir, — Last year I sent you a letter recom« mending Mother Seigel's syrup. I have very much pleasure ia still bearing testimony to the very satisfactory results of the famed Syrup and Pilffl. Most patent medicines die out with me ; but Mother Seigel has had a steady sale over eince I commenced, and is still in as great de» maud as when I first began to sell the medicine. The cures which have come under my notice are chiefly those of liver complaint and general debility.

A certain minister in my neighbourhood says it is the only thing which haa benefitted him aud restored him to his normal condition of health after being unable to preach for a considerable length of time. I could mention also a- great many other cases, but space would not allow. A near friend of mine, who ia very much addicted to costiveness or constipation, finds that Mother Seigel's Pills are the only Pillß which suit hie complaint. All other pills cause a reaction, which is very annoying. Mother Seigel's Pills do not leave a bad after-effect. I have much pleasure in commending again to suffering humanity Mother Seigel's medicines' which are no sham. If this letter is of any service you can publish it. yours very truly,

(Signed) William S. Glass, Chemist, A. J. \Vhite 5 Esq. 15th August, 1883. Dear Sir,— l write to tell you that Mr Henry Hillier, of Yatesbury, A r ilts, informs me that he suffered from a severe form of indigestion for upwards of four years, and took no end of doc* tor's medicine without the slightest benefit, and delates Mother Seigfl'a Syrup which he -got from me has saved his life. Yours truly, (Signed) N. Webb, Mr White. . Chemist, Cain
