GREAT EXCITEMENT IN WALES .'boat a marvellou3 cxire. Liviug Six Years Without Going To Bed. MB. EDITOR,— WhiIe spending a fow daya at the pleasant seaside town of Aberyatwitb, Cardiganshire, Wales, I heard related what'seemod to me either a fabulous 6toryora*niaryeHowioare, ° The etory was that a poor sufferer who had not been able to lie down in bed for six long yeare, aiven up to dio by all the Dootors, had been speedily oured-by some Patent Mediolße. It was related, withthe moreimplioit confidence from the ciroumatanoe, aB was said, that the Vioar of Llanryatyd wm familiar with the faots, and opuld vouoh for the truth ofithoreport. .j..rH ''-• tt^ '\ r f< *■ Having a little onrlbsttly "to know'how suoh Btorieß grow in travelling, I took the liberty while at the village of Llanryetyd to oall upon the Vioar the iJev. T. Evans, and to enquiro about this wonderful oure, Though a total stranger to him, both he and hia wife most fjjracioualy entertained me in a half hour's conversation, principally touching the oaseof Mr. Pugh, in which they seemed to take a deep and sympathetic interest, having been familiar with hia Bufferings, and now rejoiced in what eecmed to them a most remarkable cure. . ■■ i The Vioar remarked that he presumed hiß name had been oonneoted with the report from his' having mentioned the oaseto Mr. 'John Thomas, a ohemiat of Llanon. He said Air. Pugh was formerly a resident of their parish, but was now living in the parish of iilanddeinol. IHe strongly vouched Ifr. Wm. Pugh's character as a respectable farmer and worthy of credit. I left the venerable Vioar, with a livelier sense of the happy relation of a pastor and people, feeling that he waa one who truly sympathised with all who are affliotedin mind, body, and estate. ■ ' 'On my /return to Aberjstwith, I, waa impresflect wlth'a desnv-tojee Mr. Pugh, whose.. ro'pu£a'tidn "fltoda'so high.' His' farm is balled' i anoom- Ma wr, signifying '■ above tha dingle," situated near tho summit of v a smooth round hUI, overlooking »^eaotifal-,vaUey in whioh isiaituated the lovely iry-mantlel Ohuroh of Llanddelnol. I found Mr. Pugh, apparently about 40 years old, of medium helg&t. rather . slight, with a pleasant' and intelligent face. 1 I told him I had hoard of hia great affliction j atid of his remarkable and almost' miraculous relief, and that I hod come to learn from hia own lips, -what there was of .truth in the reports. ' Mr. Pogh remarked that his neighbours hod taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in bis case for many years, bnt of late ' their interest bad been greatly ■ awakened by a happy change in -hia condition. What you report of having heard abroad, said he, is substantially true, with one exception. I sever understoodtbat iny~oase was ever given upa s hopeless by any Phyaioian. I have been treated by ssveral Docterß hereabouts, rb good as any in Wales but unfortunately no prescription of theirs ever brought the desired relief. - - .-'.»» VFifteen years ago, he said, I ■ first < beoame conscious of a sour and deranged stomaoh and loss of appetite, whioh the Dootors told me; was Dyspepsia. What food I could hold in my stomach seemed to do me no good and ■was often thrown np with painful retchings. This was followed after a time with hoarseness and a raw soreness of the throat whioh the Doctors called bronchitis, and I was treated for that but with little eucoees. Then-oame shortness of breath and a eenßeof auSooation. especially nights, with clammy sweat, and 1 would have to go out of bed aad sometimes open a door or window in winter weather to fill my lunge withthe cold air. ' - About six yeani ago I beoame bo bad that I could not sleep in bed. bat had to take my unquiet rest and dreamy sleep sitting in an armchair. My affliction seemed to be work* log downward into my bowels ad well as upwards „into my. lungs and throat. Ia the violent.coughing spasms whioh grew more frequent, my abdomen would expand and collapse and at times it wonld seem that I should suffocate. All this time I waa reduced in strength bo that I could perform so hard labour and my apirita were consequently much depressod. .Early in thia lait spring I had a still more severe spasmodic-attack, and my family and neighbours beoame alarmed, believing that certainly I would not survive, when a neighbour, who had some knowledge, or had heard of the medioine, sent to Aberystwith by* tho driver ot the Omnibuß Post, some seven milea distand, and fetched a bottle of Mother Seigel'a Curative Syrup. This medioine they administrated to me .according to the directions, when to their surprise and delight no lesa than my own, the .spasm ceased, I became at ease, and my stomach calmed. My bowels were moved as by a gentle cathartic, and I felt a sense of quiet comfort all through Buoh as I had not before realized in many years, I oonld walk around the house and breathe comfortably in a few hours after I had taken the medicine. I have continued to take the medioine daily now for something over two months, and I can lay down and sleep sweetly at nighta and have not since had areoarrence of those terrible spasms and sweatiegs. I have been so long broken down and reduced hi my who'e system that I have not tried to perform any very hud out-door labour, deeming it best to be prudent lest by over-eze:tion I may do myself injury before my strength is fully restored . I feel that my stomaoh and bo web have been and are being thoroughly renovated and renewed by the medioine, ' In fact I feel like a new man, - 1 have been muoh congratulated by my neighbours, especially bjr the good . .Vioar of Llanrystyd, who with hia sympathetic wife have come three miles to shed tears of joy on my recovery. I bade Mr. Pugh goodbye, happy that 'even one at 'least among thousands had fooad a remedy for an aggravating disease. . Believing this remarkable case of Dyspeptic Asthma should be known to the public, I beg to submit the above faots au they are rotated to me. a3s2hwbep F. T.
