Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After 10
Years Suffering.

= wish to say a few words in praise
Diarrhoea Remedy" says Mrs. Matte
Burge, of Martinsville, Va. II suffered
from chronic diarrhoea for ten years,
and during that time tried various
medicines without obtaining any per-
maBent relief. Last summer one of my
children was taken with cholera NOR
bus, and / procured q bottle of this
remedy. Only two doses were required
to give her entire relief. I then decided
to try the medicine myself, and did not
use all of one bottle before / was well,
and / have never since been troubled
with that complaint. One cannot say
too much in favor of that wonderful
medicine" This remedy is for sale by

slapped his face. After accomplishing this
feat Syveton retreated rapidly to the upper
most row of seats, taking refuge behind
tumult ensued, deputies of all parties
cfowding upon the floor of the house, where
a free fight was soon in progress. Speaker
Brisson left the chair thus suspending the
sitting. Eventually order was restored and.
the sitting being resumed, Syveton's tenn
porary exclusion was voted. The offender,
however, refused to quit his seat, and it
became necessary again to suspend the sit
ting while he was removed by a military
guard.
