QB&AT EXaiT-SMEWi l& WAI 13 » bout; a marvellous* care Living Six Years Without "Going To Bed. MB. EDITOR,— VThiIe spending a fow days at tho ploasant seaside town of Aberystwith, Cardiganshire, Wftlos, I heard related what sootnod to me eithor a fabulous story ov a marvellous euro. The story was'that a poor sufferer who had not beon 'abla to lie down in bed for six long years, given up to dis by all the Doofcors, h'vd beon apoo lily ou^od by Bomo Patent Mcdiolas. It was related with the more implioit conftdenoa from the circumstance, as was B&id, | that the Vioar of Llanrystyd w»9 ' familiar with the facts, and ooald vouch for tho t.-uth of the report. Having a little ouriosity to know how suoh stories grow in travelling, I took tho l'berty while at; the village of Ltonryatyd to call upon tho Vicar the «ov. T. Evauß, and to onqairo about this wonderful oure. Though a total stranger to him, both he and hia wife moat entertained mo in a half hour's conversation, principally touching tho case of Mr. Pagh, ia whioh they Boemed to tako a deep and sympathetic interest, having baon familiar with his sufferings, and now rejoiced in what asenied to them a tnoßt remarkable ouro. , • ', The Vicar remarked that he' presumed his name had been 'connected with the report from hia having mentioned the oase to Mr. John Thomas, a ensmist of Llanon'. He said Mr. Pagh was formerly 1 a resident of their P&>ub, but was now living: in tho parißh of Llanddeinol. Ec strongly vonchad tlr. Wm. Pogh's character as a respectable farmer and wpnhy of credit I left the venerable Vicar with a livelier aenao of the happy relation of a paßtor and people, foeliDg that he was one who truly sympathised with all who are afflictedin mind, body, and estate. - On my return to Aberyst*ith, I was impressed with a deaire to see fctr. Pugb, whose reputation stood so high. His f&rm is called l-'anoom-Muwr, signifying ': above the dingle," situated near the saaamit of a smooth round 1 hill, overlooking a beautiful valloy in whioh is a'iuated the lovely ivy-mantle 1 Church of Llandtfeinol. I found Mr. Pugh, appav.^tly about 40 yeara old, of medium heigfot. rather slight, with a pleaaaat and intelligent face. I told him I had heard of his great affliotion and of his remarkable and almost miraoult vb rolief, and that I had come to learn from his own l*ps, what there waa of trath in the. reports, Mr* Pagh remarked that hia neighbours r had taken a kindly and sympathetic interest in bi^ case f>r many yeara, bnt of late their ir crest had bean greatly awakened by ' a happy change in his condition. What you report of having heard abroad, Baid he, is substantially true, with one exception, • I sever understood that my c jso was ever given up aa hopelosa by any Physician. I have been treated by 89veral Dootora hereabouts, as &ood as any in-Wales but unfortunately no prescription of theira over brought the desired relief.' '- •• . " ' ! Fif taen years ago, he said, I first became conscious of a sour and deranged stomach' and loss of appetite, wnioh the Dootors told me was Dyspepsia. 'What food I could hold in my stomao i seemed to do me no good and wa3 vicexx thrown up with painful ratohings. This was followed alter- a time with hoarseness and a raw soreness of the throat which the Doctors called bronchitis, and I was treated for that but with little success. Then oaine shortness o£ breath and a 86nsaof suffooation. especially nights, with clammy sweat, aad i would have to go oat of bed nad eom-timea open a dcor or window in winter weather to fill my lun-js with the cold air. About six years ago I boeatng so bad that I could not aloop in bed. bat had to take my unquisfc rest and dresmy sloop sitting in aa armchair. My affliction seemed to be workiDg downward into my bowels as well as upwards into my lungs and titroat. I-i tho violent coughing spasms which grew more frequent, my abdomen would expand and collapse and at J.mes it would seem that I should suffocate. All this time I was reduced in strength so that I could perform no hard labour and my spirits were consequently miiflh dapMwod. _ _ ' Earl; in this last spring I had a still more severe spasmodic-attack, and my family and neighbours became alarmed, believing that certainly I would not survive, when a neighbour, who had some knowledge, or had heard of the medicine, sent to Aberystwith by tho driver ot »he Omnibus Post, some seven miles distand, and fetch -da bottle of Mother teigoVs Curative Syrup. - This medicine they administrated to me according to the direotions, when to their surprise and delight no less 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 such as I bad not before realized in many yeara I conld walk around tbe house and breaths comfortably in a few hours after I had taken tho medioine. I have continued to tako tha modiciao daily now fo: something over two months, and I oan lay down and sleep sweetly at nights and huve notßioce had areourrenos of those terrible spasms and sweatirgs. I have been so loag broken down and reduoed in my whole system that I have not tried to perform any very hard out-door labour, deeming is best in be prudent lest by over-exe tion I may do myself injury before my strength is fully restored • I feel that my stomach and bowels have beon and are being thoroughly renovated and renewed by tbe inodioino. In faot j feel like a new man, I have been much congratulated -by my neighbours, especially by the good • Vioar of Llanrystyd^ who with" hia syapathetio wife have come, three milos to shed tears of joy on my recovery. I bade Mr. Pagh goodbye, happy that even one at least among thousands had foJnd a \ remedy for an aggravating disoaao. „ " Relieving this remarkable case .of Dyspeptic Asthma should be known to the public, I beg to submit the above faots au they are related to me, a3s2hwbßp F.
