WHAT IS THIS DISEASE THAT IS COMING UPON US?

Like a thief »t night it steals in upon us unawares. Many persons have pains about the ohest and sides, and sometimes in the back. They feel dull and sleepy ; the mouth has a bad taste, especially in the morning. A sort of sticky slime collects about the teeth. The appetite iB poor. There is a feeling like a, heavy load on the stomach; sometimes a faint all-gone sensation at the pit of the stomach which food does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the bands and feet become cold and feel clammy. After a while a cough sets in at first, dry, but after a few months it is attended with a greenish colored expectoration. The afflicted .one ifeels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any There is a giddiness, a sort of whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bowels become costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of the ejes become tinged with,yellow, the urine is scanty and | high-colored, depositing a sediment after Btanding. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste, and sometimes with a sweetish taste } this is frequently attended with palpatation of the heart j the vision become 3 impaired with spots before the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our population has this disease in some of its varied forms. It has been found that medical men have mistaken the nature of this disease. Some have treated it for a liver complaint, others for kidney disease, etc., etc., but none of the various kinds of treatment have been attended rest. After a time he beoomes nerrous, irritable, and gloomy, and has evil forebodings, with success, because the remedy should be such as to act harmoniously upon each of these organs, and upon the Btomach as well; for in Dyspepsia (for this is really what the disease is) all of .these organs partake of this disease and require a remedy that will act upon all at the same time, biegel's Curative Syrup acts like a charm in this class of complaints, giving almost immediate relief. The following letters from chemistß of standing in the community where they live show in what estimation the article is held. Wholesale Agents—Kempthorne, Prosser & Co.'s New Zealand Drug Co.
