Our readers may recall the cir
cumstaucc of 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 Ivy two
gentlemen 10 the Office of +. W.
Fisher, Esq the solicitor who em-
pleyed 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 a whrl and he fell in the street
| like man who is knocked down.
On coming to his senses in the soli-
citor's office he thought what this
might mean, and feared he was
going to have fit of illness, which
we all know is very dreadful
thing for a poor man with q 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 him,
and found that his present malady
was exhaustion of the nervous sys-
TEN resulting from general debility,
indigestion, and dyspepsia of q
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, rs 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 a 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 c@tive
that il induced that most painful
and troublesome allment-the piles.
He says there was some pain in
the sides and back and q sense of
fulness on the right side, as though
the liver were charging, which
proved to be the terrible fact.
The secretons from the kidneys
would be scanty and highcoloured,
with a kind of gritty or sandy
deposit after standing.
These things had troubled Mr..
Richold long time, and after his
fall in the street he clearly perceived
that the fit Of giddiness was nothing
more than sign of the steady
and deadly advance of the complaint
/, which began in digestion and dys
depsia. His story Of how he went
from one physician TO another il
search of cure that his wife anG
little ones might not come to want is
very pathetic and touching. Finally
he became too ill to keep his situa
. ton and had to give it up. This
was a sad calamity. He was appali
ed to think how he should be able t.
live. But God raised up friends
who helped to keep the wolf from
the door. He then went to the sea
side at Walton -the-Naze, bu
neither the change, nor the ply
sicians who treated him there, dit
any good. All being without avail
a he visited London, with sort 0
|. vague hope that some advantag
b might happen to him in the metro
y polls. This was in October, 1885
How wonderful, indeed, are tn
ways Of Providence, which dashe
down our highest hopes and the
helps US when we least expect il
While in London he stated his con
dition to friend, who strongly &C
vised him to trya medicine which h
called MOther ,Seigtps Curatic
y Syrup, saying it was genuine an
honest, and often cured when every
thing else had failed. He bough
bottle of chemist in Pimlico, an
began using it according to the d
rections. He did this without fait
or hope, and the public, may there
fore judge Of his surprise and Piles
sure when after taking a few dose
he felt great relief. He could ea
better; his food distressed him less
on the symptoms we have named abated
the dark spots which had hoate
= before his eyes like smuts of 500
: gradually disappeared, and hi
~ strength increased. Before TIL
y time his knees would knock togethe
~ whenever he tried to walk. So ell
couraged vas he now that he keI
on using Mother SeigeFs Cmratia
! Syrup until it ended in completed
] curing him.
In speaking of his wonderful n
covery MIR. Richold says it mad
him think of poor Robinson Cruso'
and his deliverance from captivit
on his island in the sea; and added
"But for Mother Seigel's Curati'
Syrup the grass would now |
E growing over my grave"
