HOW PILLS ARE MADE.

Tho custom of taking mcdicino in th t form of pills dates far back in history, llio objoct is to onable us to swallow easily in a condensed form disagreeable and nauseus, but vory useful drugs. To whtft vast dimensions pill-taking lias grown may be imagined when wo say thatinEnglanda|ouuabout2,ooo,ooo,ooo two thousand million) pills aroconsumcd evory year. In early days pills wero made slowly by hand, aS the demandwas comparatively small.' To-day they are produced with infinitely greater rapidit by machines especially contrived for th purpose, and with greater aceuiacy, too in tho proportions of the various ingred ients employed. • No form of medication cau be bottot than a pill, provided only it is intolligently prepared. But right hero occurs the difficulty,. Easy as it may seem to make a pill, or a million of them, there are really very fow pills that can bo honestly commended for popular use, Most of them either undershoot or overshoot the mark, As everybody takes pills of some kind, it mny be well to inontion what a good, safo and rDAIe pill should bo. Now, when ono feSls dull and sleepy, and ha' more or less pain in the head, sides, and back, he may bo suro his bowels are constipated and his livor sluggish. To remedy this unhappy state of things there is nothing like a pood cathartic pill. It will.act like a charm by stimulating tho liver into doing its duty, and ridine the digestive organs of the accumulated poisonous mattor.

But the good pill does not gripe and pain.ns, neither Joes it make us sick and iniserablolorafewhours, or a whole day- Jfc acts on tho entire glandular system at tho samo time, else tho after eflects of tho pill will bo worse than the disease itself. ! Tho griping caused- by most- pills is tho result of irritating drugs which thoy contain.; Such pills ire. harmful, and should never bo used, -Thoy' sometimes even produce hemorrhoids. Without having any particular desire to praise one pill abovo another, we may, nevertheless, name MotherSoigell'sPills, manufactured by the well-known house of A. J. White, Limited, 35, Farringdon Boad, London, and now sold by all chemists and medicine vendors, as tho only ono wo know ot that aotaaliy possesses every desirable quality. They remove ,tho_ pressure upon the brain, correct the liver, and cause tho bowels to act with easo aud regularity, They cover gripe or produce the slightest sicknoss of the stomach, or any other unpleasant feeling or symptom. Neither do thoy induce further constipation, as nearly all other pills do. As a turthorand crowning merit. Mother Seigell's Pills ore covered with a tasteless and harmless coating which causes thorn to resemble pearls, thus rendering them as pleasant to tho palate as they aro ieffectivo in curing diseases. If you have a severo cold, and aro threatened with a fever, ono or twoiu tho head, back, and limbs, and prevo doses will break up the cold with a bnt the fever. A coated tonguo, caused brackish tasto in tho mouth, y foul matter [in the stomach. A dose of Seigol's Pills will effect a speedy euro, Oftoutimes partially decayed food in tho stomach and bowles produces sickness, nausea, &c. Cleanse tho bowels with a dose of these pills, and good health will follow. Unliko many kinds of pills, thoy do not mako you feel worse before you are better. Thoy aro, without doubt, tho host family physic eyor discovered. They l'emovo nil obstructions to tho nature, functions without any unplcasint effcots. Startling Event in a Village. TOUIO Editor of "Saturday Night," Birmingham, I recently camo into possession of a certain facts of so remarkablo nature, that 1 am sure you will bo glad to assijt in making these public. Tho following letters woro shown to me, and I at once bogged permission to copy them for tho press' They como from a highly responsible source, and may bo received without question.

The enclosed remarkable eurotihould, 1 think, bo printed and circulated in Suffolk. Tho statement was entirely markable euro was related to me by the the husband. Mary Ann Spink, of Finborough, Suffolk, was for over twenty years afflicted with rheumatism and neuralgia, and although comparatively a young woman at tho timo sha was attacked (sho is now fifty), nho was compelled in oonsequeneo, to walk with two sticks, and even then withdifficulty and pain. About a year and a half aero showaß advised to try Mother Seigel'Bi Syrup, and aftor taking three bottle and two boxes of Seigel's Operating Pills, the use of ha'limbs were restored, and alio is now nblo to walk threo mllos to_ Stowmarket with easo, frequently doing tho distance in three-quarters of an hour, Any tufforor who doubts this story can fully ascertain its trutbfulnoss by : paying a visit to the village and enquiring of tho villagers, who wiU. cortify to the facts, ' Appended Is the husband's sicnature to tho statement. . ..■ 0 (R, Spink,) "G.

This is certainly a very pitiablo caae, imd the happy euro wrought by tho simplo but powerful remedy, must moyo the sympathy of all hearts in a common pleasure. This poor woman had been a cnpplo for twenty of her best years; years in which she Bhouldhave had suoh comfort and enjoyment as lifo has to give, But, on the contrary, ahe was b miserable burden to herself and a sourca of care to her friends.' Nowi at an atjo when tho rest of us aro growing feeblo she, in a manner, ronowa her youth an almost begins a now existonco.. What a blessing and what a wonder it is I No ono who knows hor, or who read heo story, but will be glad that the good Lord has enablod moil to discover a remedy capablo of bringing about a euro that reminds us-wo speak it roverently Cu tho ago of miracles. It should bo oxplainod that this most remarkable cure is duo to the fact .that rheumatism is a disease of tho blood Indigestion, constipation, itnddyßpopßfe cause tho poison from the partially digested food to enter tho circulation and tho blood deposits it in the joints and muscles. This is rheumatism, Seigel's Syrup corrects tho digestion, and so stops tho further formation'and deposit of tho poison, It then removes fi'oin the system' the poisou already there. It is not a cure-all. It does its wondorful work ontircly by its mysterious action upon tho digest'iyo Oman's But whon wo romembor that nine-tenths of our ailments nriso in those organs, wo can understand why Soigel's Syrup cures so many diseases'that appear to bo so different in their nature.
