CHITRAL.

Calcutta, April 1§ Miankalai is occupied after 3000 of enemy had been dispersed, and the road is now clear to Dir. ApriU9. The second and third Brigades have crossed the Panjkora river, in the vic inity of Mamigai, the enemy fleeing at their approach to the Malakai Country. The Indian Government has offered Urora Khan as asylnm in India. Shere Afzul is opposing the relief of Dr. JRobertson, the British agent in Ohitral. It is reported that Umra Khan has fled to Asmar in Bajaur. The resist ance is now limited to the Chitrals, who are opposing Colonel Kelly's advance.

"KISS ME, JACK, AND LET ME GO."

Once, long ago, I was witness to a duel in California. The two men had been bosom friends, but had quarelled about (of course) a woman. Splendid fellows both—young, brainy, and ambitious. As they stood in a clear space among the pine trees near Sacramento, pale as lilies, steady as rocks, weapons in hand waiting for the word, the rising sun shining athwart the line of vision, they presented a picture too often seen in 1856. The pistols cracked almost simultaneously. One man stood erect, evidently untouched ; the other fell upon his back and lay straight aad still. Seconds, Burgeons, and spectators rushed to his side. He was ' all there,' mind as well as body. • No, don't disturb me,' he said coolly to the doctor, • I'm shot fatally and shall die in five minutes. Call Jack and be quick.' Pistol still in hand, his antagonist came and bent over his erstwhile shutn. The excite ment among the crowd was intense; the dying man alone was calm. ' Jack, my darling old boy,' he said, ' forgive me and forgive Jwr. Kiss me and let me go. 1 A minute more and he was dead, with Jack lying across bis body, crying like a baby. After I have told you another and very different story, I'll show wherein they teach the same lesson.

There is no tragedy in this one; never theless it is of wider human interest than the other. A weman had been ill more or less all her life. The details are common place enough, and yet they will appeal to millions who care nothing for the jaalousies oi young men in love. ' At times,' she says, I suffered from pains at the back of the head, and a sense of weight, and felt tired and weary, yet it was not from work only. I had a strange feeling, too, of something hanging over me, as of. some evil or danger that I could not explain or define.

'My appetite was variable ; sometimes I could eat anything and again I could not touch any food at all. But I was never laid np t as it were.* Please note the last sentence. It may seem like the weakest, but really is the strongest point in this lady's statement. We will tell you why in a moment. She goes en : " Still I was often in misery, but got along fairly well until August-, 1890, when I had a severe attack of rheumatism. First the great toe of my right foot and the thumb of my right hand grew hot and pain ful, i f ler a time the trouble extended to my back and hips, I could not straighten myself; I was almost bent double. Month after month I was like this, getting little or no sleep at night. Medical treatment proved of no benefit to me. In December, 1891, the pain almost drove me mad. My face w-'S swollen to nearly twice its natural size, and my eyes were so covered by the enlarged lids that X could scarcely see. There was a constant ringing in my eirs, and the doctors said I had erysipelas. * For days and days I could not walk acroes the floor, and for some time I was able to move about only by taking hold of the furniture or other objectß When all other means had been tried and had failed, Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup was recommended to me. A single bottle did me a deal of good. I kept on with it, and soon was stronger and in better health than for forty years previously. I still take an occasional dose and continue in good health notwithstanding my age (48), and the * change of life.' I tell everyone what the Syrup has done for me, and give you permission to publish what I have said. Yours truly (signed), (Mrs) Maey Jane Milkes, 18, Walker's Build ings, Brewery Line, Thornhill Lees, near Dewsbury, Yorkshire, October 12, 1892.' Now for the lessop of bpth these incidents; what is it ? This ; that it is not people in desperate extremities who suffer most. Pain is in proportion to the resistance to disease. Those who surrender, who are in despair, who give up, have present punishment largely remitted. Dying persons are the moat comfortable of all. Hopelessness and dissolution administer their own anodynes. Those who are not laid up, who are ill, and ,yet work and struggle, peed pity and help. This lady was one, and to such Mother Seigel always proves a friend.

I was ob iged to w ilk with the help of a Ft'ck. and had given up all hopes of ever getting be t>~, I was unable to bend my knee, Buffering great pain, which made me sometimes faint. I pot one bottle of tho LONDON RHEUMA'IIC CURE, and the gift rubbing gave me such relitf tbat I oould leap for joy, and tbe day following 1 was able to walk without my stick and go oboun my work as usual. Oh, suoh a change ! I was suffering aleo with my wrists and hands, and was unible to sew or knit for a long time. I rubbed them we'l with the Cure, and oan now do my sewing, knitting, and bouse work as fresh as ever. It is marvellous! My neighbors are astonished nt me, and I advise them all to use the LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE for all their oomplaints. You oan use this as you please, Mbs Andbuw Gabd'keb, Sefton, October 21, 1890. I hereby bear testimony to the great relief by using the LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE. I was suffering terrible pain in my shoulders with rheumatism, preventing me frun working nnd sleeping. I used one hottle, and am thankful to say the pain has gone. I believe it is a remedy everyone sbculd have in their possession. I naver had its equal. P. Bebbym n. gpringbank, Mceraki, Maroh 5, 1891. To Mr Walker. Sir,--I think it right to add my testimony to the wonderful effects I be LONDON RHEUMATIC CUBE. I have « suffered with chilblains for years. I tried evrirftbing. but never got be ter.

Your LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE is marvellous. 1 had a very sore back, nnd was suffering with rheumatics, both of which have be en completely cured by its use. I have also cured my neighbors of their rheumatism, sprains, chilblains and sore throats. It has no equal; everyone should use it. Mhr BlcCaubland. Springbank, Moeraki, March 5, 1891. Mr Walker. Dear Sir,—l can testify to the wonderful cure I got by using the LON-' DON RHEUMATIC CURE. I was suffering badly with rheumatics in my hands and wristd ; the back of my hand was badly dig colored. I rubbed them well with the Cure, and am thankful to tell you they are quite better, Thomas GlAncex Ashburton, CUober, 1893. Your LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE is a remedy worthy to be praised. I took rheu matio fever and was a good while in the hands of the doctors ; at last it seemed all to lodge in my ankle. I had to walk with a crutch and stick. The dootor at last advised me to go to Ghristehuroh and get the foot taken off, which I objected to do. I got vary disheartened, as there eeemed no ours for me. I heard of the LONDON RHEUMATIC CURE, and got one bottle, and before it was done I was able to lay aside my stoks aDd to resume business, and have bad no trouble since. It is a valuable remedy I can highly recommend it, as I believe it has no equal. D.
