WE SHOULD BLOT OUT DISEASE IN ITS EARLY STAGES.

The disease commences with a slight derangement of the sto mach but, if neglected, it in time involves the whole frame, embracing the kidneys, liver, pancreas, and, in fact, the entire glandular system and the afflicted drags out a miserable existence until death gives relief from suffering. The disease is often mistaken for other complaints ; but if the reader will ask himself the following questi ons he will be able to determine whether he himself is one of tha afticted : — Have I distress, pain, or difficulty in breathing after eating ? Is thesre a dull, heavy feeling, attended" by drousiness ? Have the eyes a yellow tinge ? Does a thick, sticky mucous gather about the gums and teeth in the mornings, accompanied by a disagreeable taste? Is the tongue coated? Is there pains in the sides and back ? la there a fullness about the right side as if the liver were enlarging? Ii there costiveness ? Is there vertigo or dizziness when rising suddenly from an horizontal position ? Are the secretions from the kidneys highly coloured, with a deposit after standing ? Does food ferment soon after eating, accompanied by flatulence or belching of gas from the stomach 1 Is there frequent palpitation of the heart ? These various symptoms may not be present at one time, but they torment the sufferer in turn as the dreadful disease progresses. If the case be one of long standing, there will be a dry, hacking cough, attended after a time by expectoration. In very advanced stages the skin assumes a dirty brownish appearance, and the hands and feet are covered by a cold, sticky perspiration. As the liver and kidneys become more and more diseased, rheumatic pains appear, and the usual treatment proves entirely unavailing against the latter agonising disorder. The origin of this malady is indigestion or dyspepsia, and a small quantity of the proper medicine will remove the disease if taken in its incipiency . It is most important that the disease should be promptly and properly treated in its first stages, when a little medicine will effect a cure, and even when it has obtained a strong hold, the correct remedy should be perserved in until every vestige of the disease is eradicated, until the appetite has returned, and the digestive organs restored to a healthy condition. The surest and most effectual remedy for this distressing complaint is " Seigel's Curative Syrup," a vegetable preparation sold by ill chemists and medicine vendors throughout the world, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, London, B.C. This Syrup strikes at the very foundation of the disease, and drives it, root and branch, out of the system. Ask your chemist for Seigel's Curative Syrup. " East-street Mills, Cambridge-heath, " London, 8.C., July 24th, 1882 " Sir, — It gives me great pleasure to be able to add my testimony in favour of your valuable syrup as a curative agent. I had suffered for some length of time from a severe form of indigestion, and the long train of distressing symptoms following that disease. I had tried all possible means to get relief, by seeking the best medical advice. I had swallowed sufficient of their stuff to float a man-of-war, so to speak, but all to no avail. A friend of mine, coming on the scene in the midst of my sufferings, brought with him a bottle of your Seigel Syrup ; he advised me to try it, stating he felt confident it would benefit me. Being weary of trying so many drags, I condemned it before trial, thinking it could not possibly do me any good, but ultimately resolved to take the Syrup. After doing so for a short time it worked such a change in me that I continued taking it for nearly two months, and I then felt thoroughly cured, for I have discontinued its use for five weeks, and feel in the best of health, and can partake any kind of food with ease and comfort. I am, therefore, thankful to you that, through the instrumentality of your valuable medicine, I am restored to the state of health I now enjoy. " To Mr. A. J. White." " W. S. Forster. •' Waterloo House, London Stile, Ohiswick " February 17th, 1882. " Messrs. White and Co., London, " Gentleman, — It is with great pleasure that I add my testimony to the wonderful effects of Seigel's Syrup. For years L have been suffering from bilious attacks, which began with giddiness ; than a mist would come before my eyes, so that I should not be able to recognise anyone or anything at a distance of a yard or two from my face. This would be followed by excessive trembling of my knees, so that I could not stand withont support ; after which a severe headache would occur, lasting often two or three days. I have tried various remedies for these distressing symptoms, but until I tried Seigel's Syrup I had no relief. Since then I have had excellent health in every respect, and if ever I feel a headache coming on I take one dose of the Syrap which arrests it. Hoping that this testimonial may be the means of inducing others (who suffer as I used to try the Syrup, as I feel sure they will receive speedy benefit and ultimately be cured, I beg to remain, yours faithfully, " A. H. Horton."

At Witepsk, a Russian village, 500 buildings were destroyed by fire. Thousands of people are rendered homekss, and many lost their lives in their efforts to escape the flames. The loss is stated at 2,000,000 roubles. Dr. Decaisne, of Paris, having investigated the ii r ,flue a of tobacco on the circulation of the blood in boys from nine l.- li toen, has discovered that it produces palpitation cf the heart, intermuiency of the pulse, and a peculiar condition of the blood allied to anemia. Tne Empress of Germany is thus described by the Lond^on Society : " Imagine a face wrinkled and pinched, topped by an enormous black wig ; sunken cheeks, glowing with unnatural colour ; a pair of dark, lustreless eyes staring into vacancy • a scrawny neck, once the admiration and envy of the court, now a mass of cords and sinews ; a figure bent with age and infirmities, supported by a stout walkingstick or leaning on the arm of a attendant, and you have the picture of the Empress as she appears in public or at court festivals,"
