AT A PENNY APIECE a2O, 900.

IL you had as many pennies as there are
natural holes through your skin, how many
pennies should you have?
You would have enough to make 10000
Now figure mp the holes for yourself. Yet
you couldn't afford to sell them for penny
each, even in hard times. They are worth
more money. These holes, or sweat glands,
pour out quarts of sweat every day-water,
mixed with salt and poisonous humours.
Stop these holes, partly or entirely, and tue
skins work is at once thrown Oh the lungs
and kidneys. hen you fall ill with some
disease or other. With what disease de-

weak spot.
lady, whose name we are permitted to
mention, will not soon forget the spring of
1880. 1t was then that for the first time in
her life she was afraid to be left alone; not
from fear of enemies, but from sheer ner-
vous excitement. She was obliged to have
elastic put into her slippers to let them out
her feet were swollen SO; and her hands were
IN the same condition. In the morning her
face would puff up and large Jumps form
under her eyes and on her cheeks. Then a
fash made its appearance all over her body,
vanishing again almost Immediately, as
blush comes and goes on the face.
The suddenness of this she compares to
the sting of = wasp or hornet. An intense

of it. She was in misery night and day,
and scarcely knew what to do with herself.
Her legs got so painful and felt so tired she
was put to 1t to get about. For eighteen
months 1t must have seemed ike as many
years. she Was tormented in this way.
Meanwhile she consulted two doctors, and
attended excessively at the Newcastle In
Urinary and at the Dispensary. But nothing
far.a
ment they gave her. The doctors recommend
ed change of air, and In August 1891, she
went to North Sunderland. She found re-
lief at that place, but not from the air.
Now we must get back to the spring of
1871, and inquire what, If anything, proceed
ed this strange outbreak. At that time. the
lady says, she first felt languid, tired, and
instantly sleepy. She vas troubled with
bad headaches and attacks of giddiness.
her appetite failed; she could eat but little,
and after eating had feeling of weight and
fitness at the chest and sides. Her whole
system was depressed, and the life in her
appeared to sink. as the water does in a

Then came what has already
been described.
At North sunderland, whittier she went
for a change of air, she met gentleman
named Cathcart, who expressed most in
telligent opinion of her case and advised the
use of Mother Seigefs Curative Syrup. Con-
WINGED by his reasoning she procured a sup
ply of this well-known remedy and began
taking it.
Her letter concludes in these words:

We congratulate this lady on her recovery
and thank her for allowing as to publish |
he above details of her experience. The |
doctors called her ailment nettle rash, but |
t was more than that. Her blood was load |
I'd with poisonous acids generated by irdi- |
yestion and dyspepsia-the same as the poi |
sons of govt and of acute infammatory |
The irritated nerves of the |
skin produced the rash, as the clogged pores |
we're unable to excrete the poison. The |
power Seigel's Syrup expelled |
his poison through the kidneys and bowels,
md by stimulating insensible perspiration |
'ver the whole surface of the skin.
Of this disease an English physician says:
When It becomes chronic all treatment fails"
Yes, all treatment except the one which
