HAPPIEST: OF ALL.

There is no time m tha twenty.'our hour When one ought to feel so thorcugblji Batiß. fled and content as immediately after a Rood, hearty meal. And all heslthy persons do leel so. The body's demands have been mef, and we are easy and comfortable, as though we had paid off an old dun and bad money left. We are accessible, humane, and good natnred. Then, if ever, we will grant a re quest without grumbling.- "True benevo lenoe," says a oruaty old friend of mine,. "is located m a oapable etomaob recently filled.' Yes, but what of theinospable stomaohß, of which there are so many ?— stomachs that disappoint and plogue their owners, till the act of feeding, so deligtful to others, becomes an aot to avoid the necessity of which they are almost wiling (0 die? Ah, (hat is quite another thing. These poor souls are vhey who say, as Mies Wallace fays m this letter . others, "I was no longer to be counted among those who have pleasure m eating. Far from it. As for me I was afraid to eat. I felt the need of food, of course — the weak ness and sinking tb*t acoompanied abstin ence — bnt what was Itodo ? The moment I ate, my distress acd pain commenced. No matter how light the repast was nor how careful I was not to hurry ia taking it the result waß the same. The distress and gnaw ing pains followed, with discomfort m the oheßt, and a sense of ohokiug, as if some bitß of food had lodged there and were irritating me. I took the usual mcdi ines for indigestion, but thoy had no good effect. &f!er six months' experience of this kind of misery I read m a book abo'U Mother Seigel'a Syrup as a remedy for (his disease, and got a | bottle from Mr Bates, the obemist, m Wei- j liogton. Having ueed it a few days I fe!t great relief, and when I bad consumed two bottles I was entirely well. Smca then I have hearti'y ocmmenled Mother S.eigePs Syrup to many friends, who have invariably been oured, as I was. You havo my permission to pub li hmy latter, if you deair3 to do bo. (Signed) Minnie Wallace, Nuraa, Union Workhouso, Oldharo, February 22nd, 1895. la a communication doted January Bf.b,8 f .b, 1805, Mrs Henrietta MoCnilum, of 40, Downts fiild Bond, Walthamstow, nesr London, slrites that her daughter Emma fell il! m the epiioß of 1886 with the same symptoniß dee orißed by Miss Wallace. She oraved food, yet, when it was pi seed before her, sbe turned from it almost with loathing. • As time went on,' so runs tho mother's tetter, " my daugh ter became bo weEk sho could hardly walk Neiihtr homo medicines nor those of the doctors did any good.

In England, the Continent, and many foreign countrie myself and wares are well-known Many American families on their return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these. Confidence between man and man is slow of growth, and when found, its rarity makes it valuable. I ask your confidence and make a refergneQ to this Journal to endorse that confidence. I do not think it will be misplaced, I make the best form of cure — an i absolute one — for biliousness and I headache that can be found m this year. The cure is so small m it- self, and yet its comfort to you is so great — twenty minutes being its limit when relief comes — that it has become a marvel of its time. One and a half grains of medicine, coated with sugar is my remedy, m the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as Dk Haycock's New Liveh Pill. It is old m the market of Europe, but is new to North America. The price is as low as an honest medicine can ' be sold at, 25 cents.
