of his great aflliction and of his remark

that L had come to learn from his own
lips, what there was of truth in the re.

MIR. Pugh remarked that his neigh.
bors had taken kindly and symp-
athletic interest in his case for many
years, but of late their interest had been
greatly awakened by happy change in
his condition. What you report as hav.

Understood that my case was ever given
up us hopeless by any Physician. L
have been treated by several Doctors
hereabouts, as good as any in Wales, but
unfortunately no prescription of theirs
ever brought the desired relief.
Fifteen years ago, he said, first be-
came conscious of sour and deranged
stomach and loss of appetite, which the
Doctors told me was Dyspepsia. What
food could hold in my stomach seem.
ed to do me no good and was often
thrown up with painful retchings. This
was followed after II time with hoarse-
ness and raw soreness of the throat
which the Doctors called bronchitis,
and | was treated for that but with
little success. Then came shortncss OF
breath and sense of suffocntion, espc.
.cially nights, with clammy sweat, and l
would have 10 get out of bed and some.
times open door or window in winter
weather to fill my lungs with the cold
air
About six years ago became so bad
that could not sleep in bed, but had to
take my unquiet rest and dreamy sleep
sitting in an armchair. My aflliction
seemed to be working downward into
my bowels as we'll rs upwards into my
lungs and throat. In the violent cough
ing spasms which grew more frequent,
my abdomen would expand and collapse
and at times it would seem that should
suifocate. All this time l was reduced
in strength so that could perform no
hard labor and my splits were conse
quently much depressed.
Early in this last spring / had still
more severe spasmodic attack, and my
family and ncighbors became alarmed,
| vive, when a neighbor, who had some
knowledge, or had heard of the medi-
cine, sent to Aberystwith by the driver
| of the Omnibus Post, some seven miles
| distant, and fetched bottle of Mother
| Seigel's Curative Syrup
This medicine they administered 10
me according to the directions, when to
their surprise and delight no less than
| my own, the spasm ceased. became Mt

bowels were moved as by a gentle
cathartic, and | felt n sense of quiet

| before realized in many years. l could
walk around the house and breathe
comfortably in few hours after had
taken the medicine. I have continued
to take the medicine daily now for
something over two months and Can
lie down and sleep sweetly at nights
and have not since had IA recurrence of
those terrible spasms and sweatings. !
have been SO long broken down and re.
duced in my whole system that have
not tried to perform any very hard out

self injury before my strength is fully
restored. | feel that my stomach and
bowels have been and are being thor
oughly renovated and renewed by the
medicine. In fact l feel like a new
man.
I have been much congratulated by
my neighbors, especially by the good
Vicar of Llanrystyd, who with his sym
pathetic wife have come three miles tt
shed tears of joy on my recovery.
