A CASE OP NERVOtfS ATION BEBULTING FROM INDIGESTION. The? say that misery love's company, and they have had it so often it has passed into proverb. Yet it isn't an ajl-round truth. Some kinds of misery detest company, they Want 16 be left alone. They hata to be elbowed and questioned find talked to. A wounded dog will always crawl into Borot retire* place by iteelfi The instinct of badly injured men, after a battle is the same. Aliments that are mostly fancy, tend to set toDgues wagging- But i'eftl, genuine and dangerous diseases incite to speech. Crises Whiah ftra big with fate usually come and go in quiet. t That is why Mrs Scufibara had no desiM for the society of even her best friends at a oertain time She is fcoinft ttf tell na about* « Up to April, 1881?' sho HWUJa* "I never knew what it was to be ill. At Ihlt time I began to feel that something was amiss with me. I had no relish for my meflls and after eating my chest felt heavy and painful, and my ueMt t>oa]d beat and thump as though it meant to leap 6Ut Of its place; Presently I became so swollen round the waist that 1 was obliged to unloose my clothing, as I aould nbi bear anything to touch that part of my body. " Even the Jightest food gave me pain ; a little fl9h setting my heart to beating at a great rate. My feet were. cold, and cold, clammy bweats would break out all over me, leaving me exhausted and worn put. At night I got no sleep to speak of, and in the morning I felt worse tired than when I went to bed. I ako suffered a great deal from my feet being puffed up and Bore. I could scarcely get about the house. When I went shopping I had to ride to town and back as I could only walk a few yards. "As lime went on I lost my flesh and strength more and more, and gave up hope of ever recovering the pvecioii3 health I had so sadly lost. I took medicines, and consultfcl a clever doctor at Daby who examined me and said my heart was weak. He also gave me medicines, but I got only temporary ease from them, and in a short time was as bad as before. All this time I was so nervous and depressed that I had no desire for company. On the contrary, I seem to want to be alone with my misery. Even a knock at the door frightened me, as though I expected bad news, yet I did not really. Jay nerves and fancies ran away with my knowledge and judgment. Thousands of women who have suffered in this way will understand what I mean. " Year after year I remained in this condition, and what I went through I cannot put in words, nor do I wish to try. It will answer the purpose to 9ay that I existed thus for eleven and a half years, as much lead as alive. I spent pounds on pounds in physic, but was not a whit the better for w»y of it. "In October, 1892, a book was left at jur house, and I read in it of cases like mine being cured by Mother Seigel's Syrup. [ got a bottle from Mr Bardel, the chemist, la Normanton Street, Derby, and when I bad taken this medioine for a tew daya, my ippetite was better and I had less pain. I kept on taking it, tod soon my food agreed frith me and I gained strength. " Aite* this I never looked behind me, tot steadily sot atronger and stronger. When I had talcen three bottles I was quite like a new woman. All the nervousness aad left me, and my heart was sound as a jell. Since then I have enjoyed good aealtb, and all who know me say my rejovery is remarkable. lam confident that Mother Seigel's Syrup was the means, in the hands of Providence, of saving my life ; md out of gratitude, and in hope of doing good, I freely consent to the publication of this statement. (Signed) (Mrs) Ann Scuff - ham, Cooper's Lane, Laceby, (Jrimsby, May Ist, 1895." This letter is endorsed by Mr William J. Follerton, of the same town, who vouohea j tor the truth of what Mrs Scuffbam has paid, as he personally knew of the oiroumitttnceß of her illness at the time they ooourred. No comment can add a jot to the force of this open, candid and sincere com* munication. Whosoever reads- it must need* be moved and convinced by it. The disease which filled this woman's life with pain and misery for nearly twelve years was indigestion or dyspepsia, an ailment sly and cunning as a snake in the grass — »nd as dangerous. Send for the book of which Mrs Scuffbam epeaKs, and read the symptoms in order that you may know what it is, and how to deal with it. The book costs you nothing, yet it would be worth buying as if ever v leaf were hammered gold. ■ ADVERTISING BLOCKS of all d«B---ariptions made at the shortest notioe by BfoExx & Gamble, New Zealand Press Agency, Custom House Quay, Wellington.
