Early Iron Making in England.

In the reign OF Edward III iron was
10 scarce that the pots, splits and frying
ans of the royal kitchen were classed
imong the kings jewels. Up to the
ind Of the fifteenth century, English
hon was not only dearer. but. inferior.
10 that manufactured on the continent.
During the fifteenth century the manu-
iacture of iron began to be extensive
in Sussex, where the ore and timber for
smelling it abounded, and iron mills
soon became numerous in the country.
The landed proprietors entered into the
business eagerly, and not only were
many ancient houses enriched thereby.
but several new men acquired wealth
and founded families. In the Forest
Of Dean also iron was largely ;smelted,
but the land soon become denuded) of
trees in consequence of the exclusive
use of charcoal for smelling; people
became alarmed, and many edict>
were illuminated restricting the Sidana-.
facture of iron, Eventually the feeling
became 30 strong that from the time o:
the Restoration the iron manufacture
Of England rapidly declined. Coal. as
then used, siujuriously affected the
quality Of the iron, and it was not till
the beginning Of the eighteenth century
that steps were taken to overcome this
0ln1culty.

the trouble was, but continued to grow
worse, and my complaint batlled the skill
of my doctors. At last my symptoms de-
veloped into that terrible complaint,
Bright's Disease, which has been pronounc-
ed incurable by all physicians. My suffer

bloated from head to foot; my heart panied
me; my pulse was irregular, and was un-
able to breathe except in short, convulsive
gasps. While suffering thus learned of
Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, and
although had been given up to die by the
prominent physicians of Boston, and they
had told my friends | could not live a
week, l resolved to try the remedy as last
resort. | am rejoiced to say it has effected
a perfect cure in my case, and with many
Of my frienus, who have been afflicted with
kidney troubles, either of long standing
or in their acute forms, andwho, under my
advice, have used this most wonderful
remedy"
