SAINT JOHN, N. B.,
December IL, 1892.
GENTLEMEN:
Our daughter, twelve years old,
has ALWAYS been sick hfom weakness
of the stomach and limbs; pain
across her back, and general de-
bility have kept her from school.
We could not get help for her from
the several doctors whom we tried.
The countless medicines we bought
gave her no benefit. Her appetite
never was good; all she ate was a
few mouthfuls of graham bread at
a meal. Last summer we lost all
hope, for we were afraid of her
dying of consumption. Six weeks
ago she could not walk two hun
dred yards without getting very
tired. Now she can walk to the
city, two miles, and back, without
the least weariness; her appetite is
such, she relishes anything q hearty
man would wish to eat. For the
first time in her life she knows
what health Is.
The mother says, For twenty-five
years I have had severe sick head
eShSSs ANOtAAho SfsA SoSSeA sAASt-@
until = used
Groder's Syrup,
which has wrought a permanent
cure. No less than six physicians,
and medicines without number, have
failed to help me.
The father speaks: I have had
dyspepsia almost ever since I can
remember. Of course I was better
sometimes than others, but I have
always suffered with vomiting, dis
tress in the stomach and bowels,
dizziness, and habittial constipation
until I used Groders Syrup, which
has cleared my head, given me
good appetite, and my food does
not distress me. Our statements are
all true, and am ready to answer
questions concerning them.

Almost every one has fayorite position
during sleep and no cud OF theories and be-
liefs rs INDUCED In on the subject OF the
proper position, location and general condi-
tion Tor that sleep that knits up the raw
eled sleeve Of care Many physicians argue
that one should cultivate the habit Of sleep
ing on the right side, especially If one has
INDUCED in full meal late in the evening
The food makes its exit from the stomach
on the right side, and it is for this reason
claimed that the position is more favorable
to digestion without effort. This is impor.
tant, as all OF the faculties and functions
should have certain amount of rest, and
in no way is this as easily attainable as
during the hours OF sleep.
Other authorities say that one should al
ways lie on the back, but there are excel.
lent reasons why this Is not wise. The
weight OF the stomach and its contents
rests upon the spine, which often affects the
nerves. Some severe cases OF insomnia have
been cured by the habit of sleeping on the
face. This Ia easy 10 do and Is the most
comfortable position If one dispenscs with
tho pillow. One young man, who had OK.
hausyCd all the skin of the doctors, fell
intb yho habit of lying on his face, with his
right arm under his head, which was turned
slightly to one side. BY this change natu-
raj rest soon came to him, and he entirely
recovered, Whatever position one may
choose to take u little practice will make il
comfortable, and the experiment Is well
worth trying. New York Ledger.
