1 iviug Six Years Without Going To BedMB. EDITOR,— WhiIe spending a few days at the pleasant seaside town of Aberystwith, Cardiganshire, Wales, I heard related what seemed to me either a fabu'ous ptory or a marvellous cure. Tbe f tery was that a poor sufferer who bad not been able to iie down in bed for six long years, t ivea up to die by all tho Dootora, had bstn- speedily cured by some Patent Medicine. It was ro'atsd with the more implicit con ftdtnci from the circumstance, as was paid, that th« Vioar of Llanrystyd was familiar with tbe facts, and oould vouch for the t uth of the report. Having a little ouriosity to know hovr such stories grow in tr«vol!iog, I took the liberty whilo at the village of L'-inrystyd to call upon tbe Vicar, the ivov. T. Evanß, and to enquire about this wonderful cure, ThoHgh a tota' straDierto him, both ho and his wifo moat graciously entertained m«) in a half hour's conversation, principally touching the caie of Mr. Pugh, ia which they seemed to take n deep and sympathetic interest, having ben familiar with his sufforicg?, and dow rejoice,? in whut saemec! to them a most remarkable cure. The Vicar remarked that he presumed his name bad been connected with the report from his having mentioned the case to Mr, John Thomas, aoh omit tcf Llarion. He said Mr. Pagh was formerly a resident of their pari-h, but was now living in the parish of Llanddeinol. Be strongly vouched Mr. Wrn. Pogh'a character as a respectable farmer aad worthy of credit. I left the venerable Vioar with & livelier sense of » he happy relation of a pttstor nnd people, feeling that he was one who truly sympathised with all who are afflicted ia mine, body, and estate. On my return to Aberjstwith, I waa impressed with a desire to see Sir. Pugh, whose reputation stood so high. His farm is called I'ancom-Mftwr, signifying '• above the dingle," situated near tha saxmit of a smooth round hill, overlooking a beautiful vaUoy in whioh iB situated the lovely ivy-mantle 1 Obxrch of Llanddeinol; I found Mr. Pugh, appareatly about 40 years old, of medium height, rather slight, with a pleasant and intelligent; faco. I told him I had hcatd of hio great affliction and of his remarkable and almost miraculous relief, and tbat I bad come to learn from -his own Jip3, what there was of b trath in the reports. Mr. Pagh remarked that his neighbours had taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in bis case f.r raany years, bnt of l*te their interest had been greatly awakened by a happy change in his condition. What you report of having heard abroad, eaid ha, is substantially true, with one exception, I never understood that my c*Be was ever'given up as hopeless by any Physician. I have been treated by ssvera 1 . Doctors hereabouts, as good as any in Walts but unfortunately no prescription of theirs ever brought the desired relief. Fifteen years ago, he said, I first became ooDSoioue of a tour and dorangod ?tomaoh and loss of appetite, whioh tho Doctors told me vras Dyej epsia. What food I coutd hoiin my stomach seemed to do me no good and was if ten thrown rip with painful rotobingb, ! his waa followed after a time with hoarseness ami a raw soreness of the throat whioh the Dootore called bronchitis, and I was treated for that but with little success. Then came shortness of breath and a B6Dseof suffocation especially nights, with clammy sweat, audi would havo to go out of bed asd sometimes open a di or or window in winter we&taer to fill my lungs with tho cold air. About six years ago I became bo bad that I oould not sleep iv bed. but had to take my unquiet rtst and oroamy sleep eitting in an a«-rDch*ir. ?>'y. affliction seemed to be worki< g downward into my bowels aa well as upwards into my lungs aud t'uroat, 111 1 tbe violent couching spasms which grew mor.frequent, my abdomen would expand and coliapso and at times it wuuld seem, that I should suffocate. All this time I was reduced in strength co that I could perform so hard labour and my spirits were consequently much depresaed. Early in this last spring I bad a still more severe spasmodic-attack and my family and neighbours became alarmed, believing that cerUinly I wonld not survive, when a neigabour, who had come knowledge, or had heard of the medicine, sout to Abar>stwith by tbo driver ot vhe Omnibus Post, s. mo seven mi.es diatand, and fetch.d a bottle of Mother Seigol'e Curativo byrup. Thin medicine they administrated to me according to tbo directions, when to their tururise and deligbt no less than my owu, tho opHsm ceased, I became «t ease, and mv Btomaoh calmed. My bowels were moved a3 by a gentle c&thartic, and I felt a sento of quiet comfort all through such as I had not before realized ia many years I oon d walk around tho house and breath ot comfort iby ia a few houro af tec I had taken tho xuudiciae. I have continued to t»ke tho mediciao daisy now fo^ soni«thin<if over two months, aud I can lay down »nd sleep sweetly at nights aud have not oioce h«d sreourrenoeof those terrible spasms and sweatirgs. I have been so j long broken down aud reduced in roy whole I system tbat I have not tried i-> p rform any very h-nd out-door labour, doo )>ing it best to be prudeuS leat t>y over-exertion 1 may do mjaeJf injury bof--.ro my Btreugth is fully restored ■ I feel that my stomaoh and bowelu have batn and are being thoroughly renovated and renewed by the niodioino. In fact 1 feel like & new rn;in. I have bocn much congraiulaled by my neighbours, <npecialfy by tho good Viosr of Lianrjfctyd, who with hid sympathetic wife have cowo throe miits to shod tears of joy on my recovery, I bode Mr. Pugh goodbyo, hsppy ttuf; even one at least among thousands had fo.iKd a remedy for an aggravating disease. ~. Reiioviug this rem*rkub!-. coso of Dyspeptic Asthma should be known to the public, I beg to submit the above faotj au ihey are related to me. ■»352 b vr b ftp F. T. W.
