DJ DUUII-IO Market Place, Pocklington. York, October 2nd, 1882. Sir, - Being a sufferer for years with dys- pepsia in all its worst forms, and after spend- inafounds in medicines, ,1 was at last per- su ed to . try Mother Seigel s Curstive Syiup, and am thankfiil to say have derived ' more benet from it than -any "other -oine_I_, ever took, and would advise any one snering from the same complaint to give it a trinlitthe results they would soon nd out `for themselves.

The disease commences with a slight de- rangement of the stomach, but, if neglected, it in time involves the whole frame embrac- ing the kidneys, liver. pancreas, and in fact, the entire glandular system, and the afilicted drags out a miserable existence until death gives relief from suffering. . The disease is often mistaken for other complaints ; but if the reader will ask himself the following, questions. he will be able to determine whether he himself is one of the alicted :- Have I distress, pain, or difcul in breath- ing `after eating ?- Is there a all, heavy. feeling attended by drowsiness ? Have the eyes a yellow tinge `Z Does a thick, sticky, mucous gather about the gums and teeth in the mornings, accompanied by a disagreeable taste `Z Is the tgtnigue coated? Is there pains in the side an back `.' Is there a ful- ness about the right side as if the liver were enlarging? Is there costiveness ? Is there vertigo or dizziness when rising suddenly from a horizontal position ? Are the secre- tions from the kidneys scanty and highly colored, with a deposit after standing? Does food ferment soon after eating, accompanied l by atulence or a belching of gas from the stomach ? Is there frequent palpitation of i the heart? These various symptoms may i not be present at one time, but they tor- [ ment the sufferer in `turn as the dreadful i disease progresses. If the case be one of long standing, there will be a dry, hacking ' cough, attended after a time by expectora- tion. In verv advanced` stages the skin as- sumes a dirty brownish appearance, and the hands and feetare covered by a cold, sticky perspiration. As the liver and kidneys be- pains appear, and the usual treatment proves entirely unavailing against this latter agon- ising disorder. The origin of this malady is , indigestion or dyspepsia, and a small quan- tity of the proper medicine will remove, the disease if taken in its incipiency. It is most important that the disease should be prompt- ly and properly treated in its first stages,- when a little medicine will effect a cure, and even when it has obtained a strong hold the correct remedy should be persevered in until every vestige `of the disease is eradi- cated, until the appetite has returned, and -the digestive organs restored to a healthy condition. ` The surest and most effectual remedy for this distressing complaint is I Seigel s Curative Syrup, a vegetable pre- ation sold by -all Chemists and Medicine endors throughout theworld, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, 17, Far- ringdon_Road, London, E. C. This Syrup strikes at the very foundation of the disease, and drives it, root and branch, out of the come more and more diseased, rheumatic I system.

The . people `of; Martin county are- absolutely E. crazy - `A great deal has been. said in the papers about the situation in Mar ' tin and adjoining counties, but it has ! been. butan imperfect, reex of the - existing deplorable condition. I know ` of instances wherewhole families died `within a week, where aneighborhood has E been swallowed up in a grave, * where one man has survived to bury ' his family and friends, and then been found dead with no living creature near him, except in some cases a faithful dog. Flocks of sheep and droves of cattle lie dead and rotting. The wells ; and cisterns have beendrained to the bottom, and the springs are no longer to be relied upon for a supply of water. The ground is literally parched, and where vegetation formerly bloomedl there is nothing but decay. Thou- sands are said to have died within the past two weeks. It is evident that the chief agent of death is starvation. The people are almost without communica- tion from the outside world. An oc casional. drummer like myself strays among them once` a year. Wool and other native products are rudely manu factured into clothnng by the inhabit ants, but when the crops -fail intense - suffering exists. In the backwoods, where the lague raged with the great- est fatalit , the crops. have failed for two successive seasons. The natives are without money and food. The shutting off of the water supply "brought to the surface poisonous liquid. Famished for water the people drank, and the consequence was death. The first symptoms are violent gripings, and after this a raging headache. Burn ing fever ensues and the victim usually lingers two days, suffering great mental agony before death. Relief has recent- ly been dispatched to Martin from the neighboring counties. Before I left there was a light rainfall with a pros- pect of its continuance. The opinion prevails that the plague has passed through its most dangerous stages and is now on the wane. During the last two days of my stay there were very few deaths. noun: By A uh} Yon:'n`x-um- has 39:: roan; Pqwdor` Inn: SUVEKEIUV INSURANCE .

It was a marriage with- out thought of money" in it," for we were both poor, although I was earn- ing fair money as `a machinist. ` I was an old batohelor, but I believe I lov. ed as devotedly as a young man of twenty. _ A week after our - marriage we wanted to g,o~to' Coburg, a few miles awayon the same shore-, and one of my best friends, who was the owner of a yacht, persuaded us to make the trip few skiihirwgfihud %'.' `read future ` I saw the. persgiration roll down his face in drops, an it was plain that he was aubring great mental agony.

It was a beautiful morning, with a bright sun and a clear sky, and when we had` passed upon deck we round that Coggs was correct in his assertions. ` Four or ve miles away was the mouth of the river, and around us rippled and shim- ered the waters of Lake Ontario. When we had taken in the scene I turnedto Cu-ggs and asked : ' _ s y Well, what are we to do now 2 He laid his hand on my arm and" led me to the bow of the `boat before he spoke a word of reply.

T ........o. 5}. s..'II -`..... --...-LL2__. ,, nun Iran I know there were four. thankful hearts aboard our craft when we came to realize what we had passed through. The theory of the whirlpool is that the. rush of waters to pass through the con- tracted channel at that point makes a backset. In other words, the rush is greater in volume than can pass through, and-a portion is beaten back in swirls and eddys and churned to mad fury. Let me add to that theory. The upward rush of water from the mouth of the underground river is suicrent of itself to create and ever maintain a terrible mealstrom. | -vv-uu Where do you imagine we are 2 I asked of Coggs._ e Guess. I haven t the slightest idea." . Y ou ought to have from the way we were handled as we , came to the surface. That underground river left` us in the whirlpool rapids below the Niagara River. a No !)D. > Just as certain as you live Nothing but a whirlpool could have knocked us about and rolled us over in that man- ner. Talk about close calls, but if we had been_ ung against a rock by that rush of the waters the sides of the De- stroyer would have been crushed like an egg-shell. ' T 1-..-..

This was our ret opportunity to can vass our debeuch into Lake Ontario, and to realize that everything `aboard not secureiy lashed had been turned topsy-turvy and scattered a over _ the ` boat. - ..C"-CI -11`: Meanwhile Chinks had picked him- self up and limped off to his berth. We hastened _to inquire" if he` had. su'ered any serious injury, and he replied that he thought not, although hehad been considerably bruised and had a stitch- ing pain in his side, as if one or more of his ribs might have been fractured. We undressed him and got him into bed, and when we came to look ` him over we could but wonder that he had not been killed. He. had received a bad cut on the right knee, which was freely bleeding, and _a number of con`- tusions guring up ve or six. III. Inc I-- -I believe it waefullynan hour from our bounce to the surface before we found calm water. When the current was no longer driving us we began to. feel a different motion, `and Coggs peer- ed through one of the windows and `ex- claimed : Well, this does does beat me ! ~ - He stepped back to the dome and settled the boat away, and as we land- ed on a. rock and gravel bottom the gauge showed a depth of sixty-eight feet.

We then rested and had dinner. Chinks, was trying to crawl around, though very lame and sore, and'stout.- ly asserted his belief that two "of his ribs were broken.
