DIABETES

Is = disease Of the stomach and liver, acting
through the kidneys. and is, without doubt the
most obstinate disease, except consumption, that
affects the human constitution We have no space
for discussing causes. but will state that the e.
feet Of the disease is the conversion Of the starr
principle Tor vegetable portion Of the food into
sugar which stimulates the kidneys to an Excess
svc secretion Of water. Many persons suffer from
this disease who are ignorant of il; that is. they
pass large quantities during the day, and are
Obliged to get up from one 10 fifteen or twenty
times during the night, No notice is taken OF Il
uut their attention Is called tothe large discharge
Of water, and often when it is so far advanced as
TO be beyond the control Of ordinary remedies
Another symptom is the extreme thirst, which
when the disease is fully established. is intolcra
ble--the patient drinks constantly mithont hang
satis6sd also dryncss of the mouth cracking Of
the lips, u sweet breath, in the more adv anced
cases, aud finally loss ofappet;tc. evacuation. and
the patient gradually sinks from xhaustion.
CONSTITUTION WArERis without doubt, the only
known remedy for diab.tes. and we have as much
confidence that il is specific as we have that OPT
um will produce sleep, and txuthiully say that It
has cured sverv case in which it has been used.

in circular that could not shock the most del

municati0ns from persons for which Constitution
Water is adapted, and of whose disease no men
ton has been made, that we have come to the
conclusion that If the remedy is capable Of pro.
ducng cure, no matter what the disease may be,
il should be made known. The medicine is put
up for the public. and there should be no excep-
tions. We say, Constitution Water is not like u

The fading branches bare,
A love the thistle. down that makes

And love to hear the school boy cal,
While fovss he at his will,
And love to hear the ripe nuts fall

And wheel AID turn from left TO right,
Like armies in the skies.

To crimson colors run,
And love to zee the Aocks that lie
Solasy In the sun.
Hove the quiet Of the air
That charms the wood and void,
And makes the landscape everywhere.
SO pleasant to behold.
But more than any pleasant sight
The outward world can show.

The child with rosy face,
The sturdy boys. the girls SO fair
And full of gentle grace;
The mother in the chimney nook,
Her work upon her kaees.
The father, with his pipe or book,
And in mis- ct air of ease.
For still when autumn's chilly rains
Begin 10 blast and blight
The helds and flowers, the household gains
The vanished warmth and light.
