WHAT IS THIS DISEASE THAT IS COMING UPON US?

, Like a thief at night it steals in upon us unawares. 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 m the morning. A sort of sticky slime collects about the teeih. The appetite is poor. There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach ; sometimes a faint allgone sensation 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 cough Be ta in, at first dry, but after a few months it is amended with a greenishcolored expectoration. The afflicled one feels tired all the while, and seep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervo as, 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 skin is dry and bntat times ; the blood becomes thick and stagnant ; the whites of the eyep become tinned with yellow ; the urine is scanty and high-colored, depositing a sediment after standing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste, and sometimes with a sweetish taste ; this is frequently attended with palpitation of the heart ; the vision becomes impaired with Bpots before the eyes ; there 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 men have mistaken the nature of this disease. Some have treated it for a liver cemplaint, others 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. Wholesale agerls, Kempth^rne. Prosser, & Co. 's New Zealand Drug Co. (Limited), Dunedin,' Chriatchurch, Wellington, and Auckland.

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 customers, who -have derived great benefit from the Syrup and Pills. The sale is increasing wonderfully. Geo. A. Webb, 141, York-street, Belfast. — I have sold a large quantity, and the parties have testified to its being what you represent it. J. S. Metcalfe, 55, Highgate, Kendal. — I have always great p'eaaure in recommending the Curative Syrup, for I have never known a case in which it has not relieved or cured, and I have sold many grosses. Robert G. Gould, 27, High-street, Andover. — I have always taken a great interest in your medicines, and I have recommended them, as I have found numerous cases of cure from their use. Thomas Chapman, West Auckland. — I find that the trade steadily increases. I sell more of your medicines than any other kind. N. Darroll, Clun, Salop. — All who buy it are pleased, and recommerd it. Jos. Balkwill, A.P.S., Krv>sbridge. — The public seem to appreciate their value. A. Armstead, Market-street, Dalton-in-Furnesß. — It is needless for ire to say that your valuable iredicines have great sale in this district — greaer than any other I know of, giving great satisfaction. Robt. Lame, Melksham. — I can well recommend the Curative Syrup, from having proved its efficacy for indigestion myself. Friockheim, Arbroath, Forfarshire, September 23rd. 1882. Dear Sir,— Last year I sent you a letter recommending Mother Seigel's Syrup. 1 have very much, pleasure, instill bearing testimony to the very satisfactory results of the famed Syrup and Pills. Most patent medicines die out with me, but Mother Seigel has had a steady sale ever since I commenced, and is still in as great a) demand' as when I first'began to sell the medicine. The cures which have come under my nocice are~chiefSy those of liver complaint and general debility.; '» A certain minister in my neighborhood says it is the only thing which has benefited him and restored 1 him to his normal condition of health j after being unable to preach for a considerably le r ngth 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 pills which suit his 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. L : this letter is of any service you can publish it. — Yours very truly, (Signed) William S. Glass, A. «J. White, Esq. Chemiet. 15th August, 1883. Dear Sir, — I write to tell you that, Mr Henry Hillier, of Yateshury, Wilts, informs me that' he suffered from a severe form of indigestion for upwards of four years, and took no end of doctor's medicine without the slightest benefit, and declares Mother Seigel's Syrup which he got from me has saved his life. — Yours truly, (Signed) N. Wbbb, Mr White. Chemist, Calne. THE B4D AND WORTHLESS ' are never imitated or counterfeited This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest v lue. As soon »s it had be n tested and proved by the whole world tha* Hop Bitters was the purest, besc, and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imi tations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H B and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H.B. Many others started nostrums pu up in similar style to HB. with variously devised names in which the word " Hop " or " Hops" were used in a way to induce people to, believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All. such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and, espe6ially those with tne " Hop " or ••Hops," in their name are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Usenothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white label, andDr Soule's name blown-' in the -glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against 1 dealing ia imitations or counterfeits.

''"^"Sats i tfie "Rangiora Standard '*:— Sir Julius Vogel's Ministry of- 1870 was called the Borrowing Ministry, Sir George Grey's the Stumping, Major Atkinson's the Royal Com* mission, and the present one may' be termed the Train one. When Major Atkinson .propounded his scheme for compulsory State insurance, he was taken to task rather severely by the papers, many of them characterising it as an impractical fad ; but a greater than the gallant Major has taken the subject of compulsory | insurance in hand. Prince Bismarck has •caused a decree to be issued compelling the entire working population of Germany to submit to a reduction of two per cent, of their wages to pay their doctor's bills and to maintain them in old age. With the example of such a high -- authority as a precedent, Major Atkinson, when next he gets in power, shonld have no hesitation in bringing forward his insurance scheme. But then the Get mans are an obedient people. They have been long used to obey the commands of the State, and they know well what resistance means. Not so the New Zealand colonists ; in them the Maj -r would find it hard to obtain a ready obedience to such a scheme. The Waitahuna public will get a treat on Saturday night, .when ths Faust Family give one of their fir>t-class entertainments in the Good Templars' Hall. Th« performance of this talented family was highly appreciated in Lawrei cc, and if it i - as good at Waitahuna, « ithe people will. have tbe privilege of enjoying "^*ah evening's genuine entertainment. Bbfobb Mr He veil, at the Resident Magistrate's Court, Bildutba, yesterday "Captain" J. Innes and Oadet R, Wood (members of the Saltation Armj) were charged under the Police, Offences Act, 1884. with obstructing the main street on the 16th inst. by holding a prayer-meeting and collecting crowds with torchlights, wherebyhorses drawing conveyances were frightened. "Constables Henry Green and Hopson laid the information, and Inspector Moore conducted the prosecution on behalf of the Polio?. Accuseds, who pleaded not guilty, were conrioted and discharged with a caution. At a meeting of the Directors of the Tuapeka Milling Co., held last evening, the following were present— Messrs Fraer (chair), J. Thompson, Bui fin, Browne, M'lntosh, and H. P. Thompson (Manager). The meeting was called for the purpose of receiving and approving plans and specifications prepared hy the architects. The plans, etc., were approved, and it was resolved to advertise inviting tenders for new buildings in the Ttjapeka Times and " Daily Times," tenders to be in by the 10th prox. It was resolved to make a call of 2s 63 per share on. or before the 2nd of April. The question of Manager's ■alary cropped op, but consideration of the matter was deferred for a full meeting of Directors.
