MISTAKEN IDENTITY. | IT WAS THE GOVERNOR. ("Auckland Bell.") It is very frequently that we bear of distinguished personages being mistaken for ordinary clt'z ins, and the mistake m some Instances is made under such circnm* btanoea that the person making it is subjected to a considerable amount of j chaff fur a long time afterwarde. Anothez case of mistaken identity has been brought to light as baring occurred m oar own city m fact, at the Free Poblio Library Building. His Excellency the Governor en Taesday-af ternoon resolved on taking a \u25a0troll down to the Art G .tilery atid inspect some ot the pictures. He wbb soon m the corridor leading to the Gallory, and was about to open the dcor, when the caretaker observed : " Cloaed op, sir, no admittance." "Bit I want to view the pictures." " Sorry I can't accede to yonr request. The Mayor has inatrooted me not to allow \u25a0 solitary soul to enter." "Bat I- 1 "IVnooae, I-" •• But," replied His Excellenoy, "I'm the Governor." The caretaker collapsed, and fc ain't ilept » wink since. WHO IS MOTHER SBIGEL. She is a lady, who by the merest accident has made a most valuable discovery, and she Is creating the wildest enthusiasm all over the country, and •verybody is talking about her and asking WHAT IS MOTHER SEIGEL'S REPUTATION? And she tells them to r*>ad the thousands ot tters, something like the following from Mr Perkins : — A WONDERFUL TESTIMONIAL. "Grove Pharmacy, Ealing, W., Jan. 2, 1 88;. " Your medicine must be the most wonder- ful discover , for during my experience of more than twenty years. T nev°.r knew any proprietary or patent medicine m such universal favour and demand. It is simply extraordin ny, and if I were to send you an account uf every statement made to me m its favour, you would have to publish a separate book to contain my testimo dais alone- (Signed) " Thomas J. Perkins." And then people ask — WHAT DOES MOTHER SETGEL DO GIVES RELIEF AT ONCE. "59, Bloomfteld road Flaßistead, "Jan. 7, 1885. " I find the sale of your medicines increases every year, and everyone spe»ks well of them that tries them, I know a lady th ;t at eni-ed the Female Hospital m Soho-square . for so.th m>nths, with pains m back and side, and bilious, and could t ke no food, but got nc benefit from any of the ruerlicmes they gave he r . Before she had taken all the contents ol one bottle of your syrup she feit relief, and is now quite well. (Signed) "W. K. Baker." THE EFFECT WAS MARVELLOUS. " M-dical Hall, Bangor, Jan. $, 1885. "I hear people constantly speaking verj highly of Stigel's Syrup. There is a case ol a young married lady n Anglesey whohac been suffering from stomach asthma foi a long period, who had consulted some of the besi physicians of the day, but without deriving an] benefit. She was daily getting worse, but a last a friend persuaded her 10 try Seigel's syrup She procured a bottle, and the effect wa marvellous ; she rap dly improved, and nov she is as strong and healihy as e v er she h been. (Signed) "H. Lloyd-Jones." WhAT IS MOTHFR SEIGEL GOOD FOR? OOIS NOT RESTORE THE DEAD, BUT SAVE THE LIVING. Mr J. W. Savill. of Dunmow, Essex writes, — September, 1884:— "I introduce your medicines into Dunmow almost as soo as they were brought out m London. I sol m a short time eighteen pounds' worth, have known many grand cases of permaner cures ; and, as yet, no case of failure. >01 withstanding many competitors, Moth* Seigel's Syrup, holds its own ground. Ibe lieve it a good medicine — it will not restor the dead to life, but it appears to save th living from dying. A CASE OF GRAVEL CURKD.j "Feltham, Jan. 6. 1885. "It has always given me pleasure to re commend your medicines '.o my customers and the results of their use have irvariabl been most satisfactory. I could furnish yo many testimonials. One case just now occui to my mind. A c jnstable of tne~p&lice fore of Tooting, S.W., where i for many yeai had a shop, was a patient of mine, sufferin from a bad attack of gravel. He was pei suaded to try "• Mother Seigel's Syrup. H purchased a bottle at my shop, an^t by thi time he had taken half of it he reported him sef to me as quice cured. The effect wa simply miraculous. (Signed) '•]. D. FLORANCE." IS MOTHER SEIGEL RELIABLE? Would respectable chemists write like thi ollowing if not? SURGICAL OPERATI N AVERTED. "Ttcehurst, Dec. 1884. Mr EiWaRD Cobkk. Chemist, writes :— " Your me icine maintains a steady sale ir this district, and is well es'ablished m genera favor. 1 know an o'd man, ovtr seventy who some three or fout years ago was advisee vO submit to the operaticn for stone. He certainly was sufferin from some distressing symptoms, and could scarcely walk. Instead of taking that advice he tried Seigel's Syru , with the result that, after one bottle, he could walk about fairly well, and, t>avin< taken three or four 2s 6i butt es, he was comjiletely cured. He is siiil about, hale and hearty for his years. If any of the symptoms of the old trouble come on, he takes a few doses of the Syrup, aad all is well again." • WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUI MOTHER SEIGEL. AN EXPERIENCE OF FORTY YEARS. " Cosham, Hants, Jan. 2 1885. "My -customers, ever a wide country dis- trict, ere not very demon^rative, and I have no writ'en testimonials t > send ; bat verbal admiration o' your medicine is m the asce :d- -ant, and my experience of forty years assures me that do other preparation has so rapidly acquired a popularity, and so firmly main- tains its reputation as Mother Sek'el's Syrup.

We have the pleaauM to strte that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Di Haydook's New Liver Pill* The reason of this de- mand is because we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of ooncentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are oountlees Pills nsed for diseases and claiming muob v to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of font or five pills enfeeble the stomaoh and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with on«j 01 two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomaoh m perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver ii affected its func- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provisos of Barmah, 8.1.
