Why He Did Not Go to the Hospital.
HE COULD LEAP THROUGH THE Am. My object iu writing is two-fold: to ' OX|OTSB my fru'.itudo fur a great benefit and to tell a short story which cannot fail to interest tho feelings of many inuiy others. It is all about, myself, but I have remark'd that when a man tells the Inn,est truth about himself he is all the more likely to be of use to his fellowcreatures. To hegin, then, you must know I hud long b«en more or less subject to attada of bronchitis, a complaint that you nre awaro is very eoimnon and tnublpsome in Groat Britain in certain seasons of the year. Some months n«o I had a very severe turn of it, worse, 1 think than I ever had before, It was probably brought on by catching cold, as we aro all apt to do when wo loast expect it, Weeks passed by, and my trouble proved to bo very obstinato It would not yield to medicine,and as I also began to liavo violent racking pains in my limbs and back, I became greatly alarmed, I could neither cat nor sleep, If I had been a feeble, sickly man, I should liavo thought less strangely of it; but as, on tho contrary, I was hearty and robiist, I feared somo now and tcrriblo thing had got hold of mo, which might make my strength of no avail against it, I say, that was the way I thought, Presently I could not oven lio down for tho pain all over my body. I asked my doctor what ho thought of my condition and ho frankly said, "I am sorryjto liavo to tell you that you aro getting worse 1" This so frightened my friends, as well as myself, that they said, " Tko»uu, i/ott mint go to the Hospital; it may k your o/ihj chance for life!" Ml didn't want to go to tho Hospital. Who doos when he thinks ho can possibly get along without doinp it ? I am a laboring man with a largo family depending on mc for support, and I might almost as well bo in my gravo as to be laid on my back in a hospital unablo to lift a hand for months, orGod knows how long, llight at tin's point I had a thought flash across my mind hko a streak of sunshine on a cloudy day. I had hoard and read a good deal about Mother Soigol's Curativo Syrup, and I resolved, boforo consenting to bo taken to tho hospital, I would try that well-known remedy, On this I gavo up tho doctors medicine and began taking tho Syrup, Mark the wonderful result! I had taken but three doses within twenty-four hours when I I was seized with a tit of coughing, and threw off the phlegm and mucus off my chest by the mouthful. The Syrup had oosoned anil brokon it up, Continuing with the syrup, the racking pain which I believo oamo fiom tho bitterand poison humours in my blood and joints, soon left me entirely, and I felt like going to sleop, and I did sleep sound and quiet, Then I felt hungry with a natural appetite, and as 1 nto [ soon go 5 strong aud well
I fit I could lean thromh the air wit) delight! In a week I was able to go to my work again, It doesn't seem possiblo, yet it is true, and tho neighbors know it, Thero aro plenty of witnosuos to prove it. And thoroforo when I say 1 preach the guod news of tho great power of Soigol's •\viiDtocuro pain and discasofar and wide, nobody will wondor at mo. Thomas Canning. 75, Military-road Canterbury, Kent.
