AN ALARMING DISEASE AFFLICTING A NUMEROUS CLASS.

The disease commences with a slight derangement of the stomach, but, if neglected, it in time involves the whole frame, embracing the kidneys, liver paucreas, and in fact the entire glandular system ; and the afflicted drags out a miserable existence till death gives relief from suffering. The disease is often mistaken for other comp aints ; but if the reader will ask himself the following questions he will he. able to determine whether lie himself is one of the afflicted :- Have I distress, pain or difficulty in breathing after eating ? Is there a dull, heavy feeling, attended by drowsiness? Have the eyes a yellow tinge ? Does a thick, sticky mucous gather about the gums aud teeth in the mornings, accompanied by a disagreeable taste? is the tongue coated? Are there pains in the sides and back ? Is there a fulness about the right side as if the liver were enlarging ? Is there costiveness ? Is there vertigo or dizziness when rising suddenly from a horizontal position ? Are the secretions from the kidneys highly coloured, with a deposit after standing ? Does food ferment soon after eating, accompanied flatulence or belching of gas from the stomach ? Is there frequent palpitation of the heart ? These various symptoms may not be present at one time, but they torm nt the sufferer in tnm 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 ex pectora* tion. In very advanced stages the skin assumes a dirty brownish appearance, and he hands and feet are covered by a cold sticky perspiration. As the liver and kidneys he> ome more and more diseased, rheumatic pains appear and the usual treatment proves entirely unavailing against this 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 fasten in its incipiency It is most important that the disease should be promptly and preyerly 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 persevered in until every vestage of the disease is eradicated, until tbe appetite has returned, and the digestive organs are restored to healthy condition. The surest and most eff ctual remedy .for this distress* ing complaint is '.' Seigei's Curative Syrup," a vegetable preparation sold by all chemists and medicine vendors throughout the world, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, 17, Farringdon Lmdon, 8.C., or the wholesale agents. Kempthorne, Prosser anil (Jo.'s New Zealand Drug Company, Limited, Dunediu, Christchurch, Auckland, and Wellington. Market-place, Pocklington, Yorks, October 2, 18S2. Sir, —Being a suff;rei for years with dyspepsia in all its wort forms, and after spending pounds in medicines, I was at last persuaded to try mother Mother Seigei's Curative Syrup, and am thankful to say have derived more benefit from it than any other medicine I ever took, ami would advise anyone suffering frm the same complains to give it a trial, the results • they won d sn.'U find out for themselves. If you likf to make any use of this t stimonial you are quite at liberty to do so.—You's respectfully, (Signed) P. Turner.
