WHAT IS THIS DISEASE THAT IS COMING UPON US ?

Like a thief at night it steals in upon us unawares. Many persons hare pains about the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back. They feel

dull jinrt sleepy ; the mouth lias a bad taste, -^•especially in the morning 1 . A sort of sticky slimo collects about the teeth. Tho appetite is poor. Thero is a fooling like a heavy load on the stomach; somotiinos a faint all-gono sensation at tho ]iit of the stomach which food does not satisfy. The e3'es are sunken, the hands and foot become cold and feel clammy. After a while a cough sets in at first dry, but after a few months it is attendedwith a greenish coloured expectoration. The afllicted one feels tired all the while, aud sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable, and gloomy, and lias evil forebodings. 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 whiles of the eves become tinned with yellow, the urine is. scanty and high-coloured, depositing a. sediment after standing. There is frequently a spitting 1 up ot \ the food, sometimes with a four taste, and sometimes -with a sweetish taste; this is iVequently attended with palpitation of the heart ; the vision becomes impaired wii.h 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 t his disease in some of its varied forms, j 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 , elc, but none of the various kinds j of treatment have been attended with sue- j cess, because the remedy should be such as j to act harmoniously upon each one of these organs, and upon the stomach as well ; for iv Dyspepsia (for this is really what the disease is) ail of these organs partake of this disease and j require a remedy that will act upon all at. the same time. Seigel's Curative Syrup acts like a charm in this class of complaints, giving almost immediate relief. The following letters from chemists of standing in the coommunity where the live show in what estimation the article is lield. — "Wholesale agents, Kemptliovne, Prosser and Co.'s New Zealand Drug Co., Limited, J)unedin, Christchurch, Wellington, and Auckland. N. Darroll, Chin, Salop : — All who buy it are pleased, and recommend it. Jos. Balkwill, A.P.S., Kingsbridge .-—The public seem to appreciate their great value. <f A. Arinstead, Market-street, Dalton-in-Fur-ness : — lt is needless for me to sa}' that \onr valuable medicines have great sale in this district — greater than any other I know of, giving great satisfaction. Kobt. Lame, Melksham : — I can well recommend tiie Curative Syrup from having proved its efficacy for indigestion myself. Ifrockheim, Arbroath, Forfasliire, - September 23, ISB2. Dear Sir, — Last, year I sent you a letter recomlaendiug Mother Seigel's Syrup. I have very much pleasure in still bearing testimony to the very satisfactory results of the famed Syrup and Pills. Most patent medicines dio out with me, but Mother iSiegel has had a .steady sale ever since I commenced, and is still in as great demand as when I ii rat began to sell the medicine. The cures which have come under my notice are chiefly those of liver complaint and general debility. A certain minister in my neighbourhood says ib is the only thing which has benefited him and restored him to his normal condition of health after being unable to preach for a considerable length of time. 1 could mention also n great many other cases, but space would not allow. A near friend of mine, who is very much addicted to costiveness, or constipation, finds that Mother Siegel's Pills are the only Pills which suit, his complaint. A.ll other Pills cause a reaction which is very annoying. Mother Siegel's Pills do not leave a bad after-effect. I have much pleasure in commending again to suffering humanity Mother Siegel's medicines, which are no sham. If this letter is of any service you oan publish it. Yours very truly, (Signed) William's. G-lass, Chemist. A. I. White, Esq. August 15, 1883. Dear Sir,— l write to tell you that Mr Henry Hillier, of Yatesbury, Bills, informs mo that ho suffered from a severe form of indigestion for upwards ot four years, and took no end of doctor's medicine without the slightest benefit, and declares Mother Siegel's Syrup which he got from me has saved his life. -^ Yours truly, (Signed) N. Webb, Mr White. Chemist, Calne.
