MR.. DUANE, OF AUCKLAND.

| WE shall print the whole of Mr.. Isaac
| Duane's letter, only regretting that it is mo-
longer. He might have mentioned thai
June, the month in which he wrote, is the
coolest month in the year in his country
and January the hottest. He might also
have reminded us that New Zealand i:
almost as large as Great Britain, with
much more desirable climate. He might
| further have said that il is wholesome
| place to live in, as it contains few physical
sources of disease, and possesses no insect
so noxious as the English wasp. Yet OF
reading his letter We shall find that those
attractive islands in the far Southern Sea
are not free from an enemy we are called
upon to fight here In England, as elsewhere
throughout the world.
81 have much pleasure in writing you,'
says Mr.. Duane, las to me 1t is privilege
as well as duty to describe an experience
in which l am confident you will be in
terested.
ever since was boy / have not only
suffered from Indigestion in its worst form,
but have been a martyr to it. Such success
in life as have achieved has been in the
face of the constant opposition set up by
this miserable complaint. All its symptoms
are familiar to me as the smoke of London
is to a dweller in that rather grim old city.
The bad taste in the mouth, the fitful appe-
tlte, the distress in the stomach after eating
the pains in the chest and back. the dull
headache. the sense of WEAKNESS and fatigue,
the depression of spirits, the want of ambi-
ton to take hold of any labour, the weak
ness resulting from lack of sufficient nourish-
ment. &c.-all these were part and parcel of
my life from my youth to time am going
to speak of in a moment.
II can only account for it by assuming
that / must have inherited a tendency to
this disease At all events 1t cast gloom
over my whole history up to the date of my
recent happy deliverance. The record of
the sic epless, wretched nights passed would
make almost volume by itself. Times
beyond counting have arisen from my bed
in the morning, glad the night was gone,
and yet in no frame of mind to welcome the
day. To the chronic dyspeptic rest does
not bring strength as it does to others.

little faith that it would do me any good;
but l was in such pain that was IN a mood
to try anything that offered the remOtest

Our home readers will perceive that not
in England alone but in far distant quarters /
Of the globe this celebrated medicine is 1
known, and is successful where others do 1
not avail. 1T is the most common place of
truths that its praises are sounded wherever /
civilization extends. and almost in every 1
written language the name of Mother
SeiQels Syrup finds an acknowledged place. 1
