M»av<€butt Fraacie Parker, of No. 109 Ba*4tottar«e& > Dunedin, on being interviewed fey oar reporter, related a very w—ftional experience, which, many rm&n may find personal advantage in reading & €l "Whilst living on the goldfields'at Quesastown," said Mrs. Parker, "I beoasas • martyr to periodical attacks of neWfftfei*. My doctor said the cold winds off the lake near which we lived war* accountable for my ailment. Be fcoafc as it may, I am of the opinion that tits terrible state of weakness into which I had sank had a great deal to do with ray ausfosrtune. A dreadfully acute pais, which made me frantic somotimee, started in the side of my face and spread up to ay forehead and temples. From then*, it pursued its maddening career to tbo bank of my head. The agony was so great that I could not think of doing nay homework, and as the attacks ueuslry lasted three months without abatement it ia ea»y to conceive what a frig&fcful wreck I became. At night the torture was doubly severe, when 1 could do nothing but turn and writhe in pain. I used to long for a few hours' sleep, but it never came, and when morning arrived I felt it a relief to get up, although my trembling limbs were almost incapable of supporting me. My eyes had am incessant burning sensation behind them, being sometimes as red and hot as coals of fire." " How did you get through the Say, Mrs. Parker?" 41 In a state of distraction. My mental faculties were so affected that I hardly knew what I was doing half the time. .'•» When the pains were a little moderate I felt an inclination to sleep, when, as soon as I lay down, the agonies returned with greater violence. Oh! what a miserable time I had. My jaw* were made sore and tender with a dull, dragging pain which put the thought of eating out of the question. The only food I could take was of a milky character, and even that proved too difficult of digestion for my stomach to retain. I was thoroughly worn out and jaded. My body wasted away and shrivelled up bill there was hardly anything left of me, and my face had a terribly haggard appearance. I became so nervous Kar M if Hof Hpr K "o clear away the bitter taste which was n my mouth.
