STARTLING EVENT IN A VILLAGE.

(To the editor of Saturday Night, Birmingham.) I recently came into possession of certain facts of so remarkable a nature, that I am sure you will be glad to asßist in making them public. The following letters were shown to me, and I at once begged permission to copy them for the Press, They come from a highly responsible source, and may be received without question. MESSAGE from Geoboe James Gostling, L.D.S., R.C.S.I. Ph. C.I,, Licentiate in Pharmacy and Dental Surgeon. Stowmarkst, July 18, 1889. To Mb. White, The enclosed remarkable cure should, I think, be printed ami circulated in Suffolk. The statement was entirely voluntary, and is genuine in fact and detail. G. J. G. " To the Proprietors of Mother Seigel's Syrup. " Gentlemen, — The following remarkable cure was related to me by the husband. Mary Ann Spink, of Finborougb, Suffolk, was for over twenty years afflicted with rheumatism and neuralgia, and although comparatively a young woman at the time she was attacked (she isnow fifty), she was compelled, in consequence, to walk with two sticks, and even then with difficulty and pain. About a year and a half ago she was advised to try Mother Seigel'a Syrup "(R. Spink.) " G. J. GOSTLING, " Ipswich Street, " Stowmarket."

This is certainly a very pitiable case, and the happy care wrought by this simple but powerful remedy, must move the sympathy of all hearts in a common pleasure. This poor woman had been a cripple for twenty of her best years ; years in which she should have had Buch comfort and enjoyment as life has to give. But, on the contrary, she was a miserable burden to herself and a source of care to her friends. Now, at an age when the rest of us are growing feeble, she, in a manner, renews ncr youth and almost begins anew existence. What a blessing and what a wonder it is I No one who knows her, or who reads her story, but will be thankful that the good Lord has enabled men to discover a remedy capable of bringing about a cure that reminds vs — we speak it reverently — of the age of miracles. It should be explained that this most remarkable cure is due to the fact that rheumatism is a disease of the blood. Indigestion, constipation, and dyspepsia cause the poiscn from the partially digested food to enter the circulation, and the blood deposits it in tbe joints and muscles. This is rheumatism. Seigel's Syrup corrects the digestion, and sostops the further formation and deposit of the poison. It then removes from the system the poison already there. It is not a cure all. It does its wonderful work entirely by its mysterious action upon the digestive organs. But when we remember that nine-tenths of our ailments arise in those organs, we can understand why Seigel's Syrup cuTea so many diseases that appear to be so different in their nature. In other words rheumatism and neuralgia are but symptoms of indigestion, constipation, and dyspepsia.

T. P. O'Connor saya he has learned from Gladstone's hatter that a coiitour of the Grand Old Mac's head transferred to paper makes a very fair outline map of Ireland. Charles Theodore, Duke of Bavaria, besides surgically treating thousands of poor patients gratis, spends about 50,000 dols. a year in maintaining his free dispensaries and hospitals. He has no private fortune, but is depsnding upon his annuity from the Bavarian Crown. _ _
