Year by year his health grew wors and worse until at last rheumatism came with all its dreadful agony. One joint after another became swollen and inflamed, so that lie was ohligisl to stoj> work, in this sad plight the now young man was confined to the house for two long years, suffering all that mortal could endure. One physician after another was called upon to treat his complaint, but with no benefit, foe the poor fellow continued to grow worse and worse. Hoping to find some means of relief, a consultation of doctors was held, when it was decided that an organic disease of the heart existed in an incurable form, and that medical aid could not afford relief. He was given up to die. These years of expensive medical treatment had exhausted the little savings of the mother, and they had no money to buy even the necessaries of life. There was one spark of hope left. Someone had told her of a remedy that liad cured so many cases even when os hopeless as this one seemed to lie—and tlie mother's love went out for her dear hoy. But how to get the medicine was tlie question. Their money was entirely gone. The boy had a new pair of trousers that lie had been too ill to wear, and the mother reasoned within herself, “ If tlie boy is to die he will not need them, so I may as well pledge them for medicine with an effort to save his lite.” Strange as it may appear, the bottles of medicine procured at the chemist’s shop in Pontypool witli the money obtained from the pawnbroker effected a cure in this hopeless case, which had been pronounced as incurable. But it is only just to say that if tlie chemist had known of the wants of the family, tlie medicine could have been obtained without a visit to the pawnbroker It is now nearly two years since this took place, and young James Francis Thomas has been working in the coalpit under-ground ever since, earning extra pay for overwork, which he is able to perform. Of course he never had organic disease of tlie heart, ag supposed. The palpitation, rheumatism, and asthma were mere symptoms of the real disease, which was dyspepsia, or indigestion, far which the remedy was specially adapted. Those who wish to communicate with this young man can write to him at the alxwfetaddress, and he will vouch for the curative properties of Seigel s Syrup, the article that affected this almost miraculous cure. The following letter is from a chemist, who thought the facts should he made known James Francis Thomas, of I’ontnevvynydd, near Pontypool, aged 28, collier, was ill for nine years, unable to do any work for three years, never lay down in bed for nine years, had to sleep in a stooping posture, was treated by nearly all the doctors for miles around, who generally stated his complaint to lie rheumatism and heart disease of a chronic nature, and beyond nil power to cure. When hope hiul nearly died out he was persuaded to trv Sci gel's Syrup, and to the delight of his relatives and astonishment of his neighbours, after taking half a bottle lie could Tiedown in bed. After taking one bottle he went to work. Has now taken two Imttles, and on with a third, and is quite well and strong. His mother is in raptures, and can talk of nothing else* hut this marvellous cure, and wishes me to make it known.”
