A REMARKABLE CASE.

editorial columns
Our readers may recall the cir
cumstance of q young clerk, named
Arthur Richold, falling insensible
on the Weatley Lane in this town
some time ago, and being picked
up, as he continued perfectly help
less, and taken in a cab by two
gentlemen to the Office of f. w.
Fisher, Esq; the solicitor who en-
ployed him. On restoring him to
consciousness it was ascertained
that he was afflicted with what
seemed to be an incurable disease.
When he was able TO speak he
said he had been to his dinner and
and was on his way back to his
work, when suddenly his head was
in whirl and he fell in the street
like man who is knocked down.
On coming to his senses in the soil
ctor's office he thought what this
might mean, and feared he was
going TO have q fit of illness, which
we all know is very dreadful
thing for a poor man with family
to care for.
With this in his mind he at once
sought the best medical advice,
telling the doctors how he had been
attacked. They questioned himR
and found that his present malady
was exhaustion of the nervous sys-
tenn resulting from general debility,
indigestion, and dyspepsia of a
chronic nature. This in turn had
been caused by confinement to his
desk and grief at the loss of dear
friends by death. The coming on
of this strange disease, as described
by Mr.. Richold, must be of inter-
est both to sick and well. He had
noticed for several years previously,
in fact, that his eyes and face be-
gan to have yellow look; there
was sticky and unpleasant slime
: on the gums and teeth in the
morning; the tongue coated; and
the bowels so bound and costive
that it induced that most painful
and troublesome ailment-the piles
He says there was some pain i'll
the sides and back and sense OF
fulness on the right side, as though
the liver were charging, which
proved to be the terrible fact
!. The secretions from the kidneys
would be scanty and high-coloured
, with kind of gritty or sandy
deposit after standing.
These things had troubled Mr.
! Richold long time, and after hi
fall in the street he clearly perceive
that the fit of giddiness was nothin
= more than sign of the steadl
and deadly advance of the complaint
which began in digestion and dys
3 depsia. His story of how he wen
from one physician TO another i
search of cure that his wife ant
little ones might not come to want i
very pathetic and touching. Final
he became too ill to keep his situa
ton and had to give it up. Thi
Q was q sad calamity. He was appall
: ed to think how he should be able t
v live. But God raised up friend
= who helped to keep the wolf fror
the door. He then went TO the sea
side at Walton-o the-Naze, bu
neither the change, nor the ply
sicians who treated him there, di
any good. All being without ava
he visited London, with sort c
vague hope that some advantag
might happen to him in the metro
polls. This was in October, 1888;
How wonderful, indeed, are til
ways of Providence, which dashe
$. down our highest hopes and the
helps us when we least expect i
While in London he stated his col
dition to friend, who strongly az
vised him to try medicine which /
called Mother SeigePs Curatie
Syrup, saying it was genuine an
IN, nOHeSG, anu Olteii CuTcu Wneu every
thing else had failed. He bougl
q bottle of chemist in Pimlico, an
= began using it according to the d
rections. He did this without fat
: or hope, and the public, may Their
% fore judge of his surprise and pie
sure when after taking a few dos,
he felt great relief. He could CT
better; his food distressed him less
"a the symptoms we have named abatet
\ the dark spots which had foate
a before his eyes like smuts of 500

strength increased. Before til
time his knees would knock togeth
whenever he tried to walk. So e
couraged vas he now that he Ike
on using Mother ,SeigePs Curati
Syrup until it ended in complete
curing him.
