SKILFUL SURGICAL OPERATION The American Ambassador at Vienna, Mr has lately forwarded to his Government an interesting a count of a remarkable surgical operation lately performed by ProfessorJßillroth, of Vienna, which, wonderful to tell, consisted in the removal of a portion of the bateau stomach, involving nearly one-third of the organ—and, strange to say, the pair-nt recovered—the only surgical operation of the kind ever performed. The disease for which this opera-ion was performed wa> cancer of the stomach, attended with the followingsymptoms: —The appetite is quite poor. There is a peculiar indescribable distress in the stomach, a filing that has been described as a faint “allgone” sensation; a sticky slime collects about the teeth, especially in tr.e morning, accompanied by an unpleasant taste. Food fails to satisfy this peculiar faint sensation ; but, on the contrary, it appears to aggravate the feeling. The eyes are sunken, tinged with yellow ; the hands and feet become cold and sticky—a cod perspiration. The sufferers feel tired al 1 the time, and sleep does not seem to give rest. After a time the patient becomes nervous and irritable, gloomy, his mind filled with evil forebodings. When rising suddenly from a recumbent *position there is a dizziness, a whistling sensation, and he is obliged to grasp something firm to keep from falling. The bowels costive, the skin dry and hot at times ; the blood be fming thick and stagnant, and does not circulate p operly. After a time the patient ap food soon after eating, sometimes in a sou and fermented condition, sometimes sweetish to the taste. Oftentimes there is a palpitation of the heart, and the patient fears he may have heart disease.. Towards the last the patient is unable to retain any food whatever, as the opening in the intestines becomes close, or nearly so. Although this disease is indeed alarming, sufferers with the above-named symptoms should not feel nervous, for nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand have no cancer, but simply dyspepsia, a disease easily removed if treated in a proper manner. The safest and best remedy for the disease is Seigel s Cnrative .Syrup, a veget ble preparation sold by all chemists and medicine vendors throughout the world, and by he proprietors, A. J. White (Limited), 17, Farnngdon road, London, E.C.; or the wholesale agents, Kempthorne, Prosser and Co. s ew Zealand Drug Company (Limited), Dunedin, Christchurch, Wellington, and Auck and. This Syrup strikes at the very foundation of the disease, and drives it, root and branch, out of the system. „ St. Maty street, Peterborough, November 29th, 1881. Sir,- It gives me great pleasure to inform you of the benefit I have received from eigel s Syrup. I have been troubled for years with dyspepsia: but after a few doses of the Syrup, I found relief, and after tak ng two bottles of it I feel quite cured. I am, Sir, yours truly, William Brent Mr A.

My Dear Sir, —Your Syrup and Fibs are still very popular with my customers, many saying they are the best family medic.nes posible. , The other day a customer came for two bottles of Syrup and said “Mother Seigel had saved the life of his wife, and he added, “one of these bottles am sending fifteen miles away to a friend who is very ill. I have much faith in it.” , . , . The sale keeps up wonderfully, in fact, one would.fancy almost that the people were begimriog t© breakfast, dine, and sup on Mother Seigel?

Spanish Town, Jamaica, West Indies, Oct. 24, 1882. . _, Dear Sir, —I write to inform you that I have derived great benefit from “ Seigel’s Syrup, ” For some years 1 have suffered from liver complaint, with its many and varied concomitant evils, so that my life was a perpetual misry. Twelve months ago I was induced to try Seigel’s Syrup, and although rather sceptical, having tried so many reputed infallible remedies, 1 determined to give it at least a fair trial. In two or three days 1 felt considerably better and now at the end of twelve months (hav ng continued taking it) I am glad to s y that ) am a different being altogether. 11 is said of certain pens that they ' ‘ come as a boon and a blessing to men” and 1 have, 1® reason to doubt the truthfulness of the statement. 1 can say truly, however, that Seigel’s Syrup has come as a ‘ boon and a blessing ”to me. 1 have recommended it to several fellow-sufferers from this distressing complaint, and their testimony is quite in accordance with my own. Gratitude for the benefit 1 h ve derived from e excellent preparation, prompts me to furish you with this unsolicited testimonial. I am, dear Sir, Yours ever grate'ully, (Signed) Carey B. Berry, Baptist Missionary. A. J. White, Esq. Hensingham, Whitehaven, Oct. 16, 1882. Mr A. J. White.—Dear Sir, I was for gome time afflicted with piles, and was adyised to give Mother Scigel’s Syrup a trir l, which I did. lam now happy to state that it has restored me to complete health —I remain, yours (Signed) John H.
