T ISTEN TO YOUR WIFE. Tue Manchester Guardian, June9,lßß3, says : " At one of the windows looking on the woodland ways, with olumpg of rhododendrons and great masse* of May blossoms, there was an interesting group. It inoluded one who had been a cotton spinner, but was now so paraljzad that he could only bear to lie in a reclining position." This refers to my case at the Home for Incurables. I was first attacked 12 years ago, with Looomotor Ataxy (a paralytic disease of nerve fibre rarely ever cured), and was for eeveral years barely able to get about, and for the last five years barely able to attend to my business as cotton agent, although many things have been done for me, the last experiment being nerve stretching, two years ego. I was voted into the Home for Incurables, Mauldeth Hall, Heaton, Mersey, near Manchester, in May, 1832, a home that ou*ht to be more widely known, where poor hfflicted ones havo every suitable comfort and attention. I am no advocate for anything in the shape of patent medicine, and made many objections to my dear wife's constant urging to try Hop Bitters, but finally, to pacify her, consented. I had not quite finished the first bottla, when I felt a change coma over me. This was Saturday, November 3rd. On the Sunday morning, in dressing, I felt »o strong on my legs, I said to my bed-room companions, ''l was sure I oould walk ;" so started across the floor and back. I hardly knew how to contain myself. I was all ovar the house. After finishing the first bottle I had four days bo wait for the second, and by the time it came I had fallen back comiierably. Two days after I oommenced to take the second, my walking came back, and now, as the Home are findiag the Bittero for me, I am gaining Btreagth each day, and can walk quitejsafe without stick or any other support. I am now at my own house, and hope soon tobeablsto earn my osn living again. I have been a member of the Manchester Eoyal Exchange for nearly thirty years, and was most heartily cor gratulatedon going into the room oa Thursday last.

CURIOUS CASE OF AN INVALID, A case whioh has excited some interest in Rhodes during tho past week is that of a man named John Thompson, of Churoh street who has had a wonderful partial recovery of tho use of his limbs by a meiicina known as Hop Bitters. He formerly worked for Mr C. W. Brierley, of Rhodes House. About 13 years ago he strained himself with lifting, but little notioe was taken of the same at the time, but he gradually grew worse and became unable to \eed, dress, or move himself in bed, beooming really helpless. He tried several dootors, and the Royal Infirmary three times, but was discharged incurable, He was in this helpless condition for 11 years, About ten weeks ago he was persuaded to try Hop Bitters. During the fiat bottle, to use his own words, he " felt a queer sensation all over his body," and since then he has beea improving; he can now feed himself a little, put his arms at the top of his held, and mi va his legs about, but is not yet quite able to stand. He oan sit up in bed. or in a chair for five or six hours, or he oan raise himself up. On Monday he was taken out in a fruit cart belonging to a person named Stevenson, and went at far as Prestwich, and the difference between being in bed for so loDg a time and then outside was so great that he oould not describe his feelings. His obange was so remarkable that many persons who hod known him to bo bedfast so long, and had heard of his great change, bub were sceptical about the truth of it, paid him a visit on Monday evening.—Middleton Albion, June 7, 1884. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 6,1882. Hopßitters Co.: 1 am 74 years old, have lived 34 years in Philadelphia, and well known amonp Germans. I have been troubled 12 years with a white swelling on my right foot, and getting worst every year, and very painful and breaking out in hot weather. I consulted several doctors and they told me it was incurable and I would have to take it with me in the grave, Some time ago I lost my appotite, was costive, had headache, and fever, in fici was very tick. I saw in the German Democrat that Hop Bitters was what I needed, I got a bottle, took it one week and in my greatest surprise, right iron the firot, my swelling wtnt down gradually and taking another bottle got entirely well of it. The wife of my neigbbor had two suoh swellings on her legs and three bottler cured hor. I think this is a gre*t triu-nph for your hitters. John Stoll. No 4 Young's Alley, aVye Wil .w *ti e .

My troubla n\ways came after eating raj food, no matter li3w light and digettible it was. For two or three hours at a time I h*d to go through the most exoruoiating pains, and the only way I ever got relief was by throwing up aH my stomnoh contained. No one can oincrivc the pains I had to go through, until it last I was taken so that for three weeks I lay in b;?d. Oould eat nothing. My suff?rin?t wero so that I called in two doctors to see if they could give me something that would stop the pains, but thoir efforts were of no good to me. At last I read a good de»l about Hop Bitters, and determined to tjy them. Got a bottle, and in four hjurs took ina contents of ono. Next day I was out of bed and have not seen a sick hour from the utma cause sine?. I h&va rooommended it to hundreds j you have no Buoh advocate as I am. * * * Geo. Kenball.
