Tam some* ' what liko that, old yew tree out in the j yard, deeply rooted to this Boil, and migh'bo the lvorso for pulling up, Tlion : lam getting on-in life, and ills grow 1 apace with aj>e. In tho spring of 18781 I had a Berious attack, At first I scarcely khow what to make of it. There wsb no disease that I recognised in particular. , I felt tired in body and weary in mind, ' There was much pain at my ohest and ' back, and a kind of tiahtneas at the Bides, I as though, physical force wore applied there to restrain me from moving, My appetite, which was usually good, fell away; andwhenever I ate or drank gave me pain, and I lived almost entirely on bread and water. I, was always in pain and couldn't sleep so as' to feel refreshed by it. After a time I grew bo weak as to be unablo to go about my werk. A bitter and eiokeniug fluid arose into my mouth, and I perspired to such an extent that the sweat sometimes rolled off my face to tho floor," ! ; I (the writer) break in upon Mrs Herd's story at this point merely to say that this tendency to sivnat without the provoostion of labour or of exercise is always asinii of debilitated condition of the system. It means that tho blood is impure and impoveris!ied,tlie kidneys wotking badly, and that tho body lacks nourishment and is living feebly on what was previously stored in it. In other words,'tho stomach has refused its duty and the other organs are in sympathy with it, Now we will let tho lady proceed, begglug pardon for tho interruption. . She went on to say:-" For a timo I tried ta'ume myself with various gomes lie remedies which sometimes answer. But they failed, ann 1 consulted a "With all respect to the doctors, tlioy'occasionally foiled to. .'This one did. You know (here comes a (imo in all : long illnesses when, we get in some way used to pain and misery and make no further effort to get rid of it. In-faot, we don't know how, and bo don't try. For about throe years I re- ; mained. wretched and ailing, and dull unhappy years they were,. My sufferings were beyond nil 1 had ever known before, yet there Boomed nothing to do but to bear them as patiently as I could. At this date, 1881, certain friends of mine spoko to me of tho great bonfit thoy had received from the use of Mother Seieel'a Syrup, for indigestion and , dyspopsia, This throw light on my mind, although I cannot say it made me at once a believer in Seigel's Syrup, At length, however, in July, 1881, 1 began to take it. In all I used six bottles, and found my health fully restored, Ten years have elapsed, and I have had no attack since. But if 1 do in future 1 shall know whero to put my hand on the remedy. 1, ■ Our visit being virtually over, wo called for a few moments at Mrs Herd's home, 2, High Street, Minster, Kent, j and then wended our'way back to Rams- ( Now York, October, 1891.
