SEVEN POUND 3 IN ONE WEEK. Not every man who is thin would thank you for fattening him. He doesn't want to b« fat and for very good reasons. Uoneoesiary fat is a load to carry about; it interfere! wi h a man's power to work, shortens hi wind, and dulls his wits. Yet, on the other hand, a certain amoua of flejh is needed for health ani oomfort. For example : A man five feet high ehould weigh about 120 bs ; and a man fire feet eiz inches, 1451ba ; a man six fe9t, 173 1b5. It it a regular aßoending soale. The iniufanee companies allow a variation of 7 par cent* above or below it, and beyoad those limit! charge an ex ra premium. One shouldn't be muoh over or tinder his proper weight il he wants to be sound and hearty— and we 11 do want that. Now we will tell you how Mr Thomai Crosby, being under weight, geined seven pounds in a week, He had lest If atone, whioh ie too muoh off for a man wbo was ne^er fleshier tban he n turally ought to be. It was this way He was right enough up to May, 1891, At that timo he began to feel ill and out of sort?. He had a nasty taste in his mouth— lke rotten eggs, ho says— and a thick, slimy stuff came on his gums and teeth. His appetite failed, and what he did eat was, as you might say, under compulsion ; and right afterwards he would have great pain in his Btomach and ohest. Plainly, something was amies with him in that region. He wa3 often dizzy, and oold ohilla ran over him as though he were . threatened with fever. Of o our S3 we should expect a man who is bandied in this way to lose btrength. Mr Crosby lost strength In ' fact, he got so weak and nervous that he i shook all over, and hia hands trembled as if > a oairent of eleotriaity were runuing through , him. To nee his own words : " I rapidly lost flesh, was 1J Sione lighter, and oould hard y l walk aboas. Once my parents; thought I wai dying, and sent in uas.e lor the doctor I f saw two doctors in Epworth and one at Haxey, bat they were not able to help me, ' Our vioar, Rev Mr Ovarton, recommended mo 1 to the Lincoln Infirmary, where I attended f for eight weeks bb an outdotf patient, with--1 ont benefit. i " Soon afterwards Mr Sharp, a chemist, * at Epworth, spoke to me of the virtues of a a medioine known as Mother Seigel'g Curative t Syrup. Being interested ia what he said, I left off tr>iag oiher things and began taking this Syrup. In a few days I felt better, and :* presently I gained seven pounds in a week. " At that rate I soon got back to my work, and ,r have had the best of health ever sinoe. I ) } tell these fac's to everybody, and am per--0 fectly willing they ehould be published. 1 Yonrs truly (Signed), Tom Obobbt, Ferry Road, Ep worth, via Donoaster, DeOember ie 23rd, 1892" [Q After reading Mr Crosby's s fory we soaroely l need to asu why he lost flesh. The minuta ' he stopped eating and digesting hia ueual fS allowance of food he began to fall away. 1- Trees, they say, grow as muoh from the ait by means of taelr leaves, a > they do from th« k e soil. But men don't. They've got to bi built up through their Btomachs. Indiges* ; * tion and dyapepßia (Mr Crosby's complaint) it stopa thia process and poisons those who f. have it, besides. That accounts for all ths paiafnl and dangerous aymptoma our friend speaks of. The doctors do what they can, a but, unluckily, tuey don't posseßS the meii< Vi oine that goes to the bottom of this disease of and cures it. The remedy is Mother SeigeA'c dQ Curative Syrup, and nothing else, so far as we know. It leatores digestion, and digaßt on covers the bonce with fat ensugh for 1'• health and good looks.

In Eegland the Continent , and many foreign countries, myself and » ares are well known many Ameican families on tbeir return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but yoa may not be one of these. Confidence bet we man and man is slow of growth, and when found, its rarity makes it valuable. I ask yonr eoufience, and make a reference to tbis Journal to indorse that confidence. Ido not think it ill be misplaced. I make the best form of a oare — an absolute one — for biliousness aad headache that can be found in tbis year. The cure is so small in itaeli and yet its comfort to you is so great — 20 minutes being its limit when relief oomes — that it has beoome the marvel of its time. One and a half grains o, medicine, coated with sugar, is my remedy, in the shape of one small pill known to commerce as DB. HAYDOOK'S NEW LIVEB PILL. It s old in the markets of Earope, bat is new to North America. The prioe lis as low *s an honest medioine can be sold at, 25 cents.
