Wellington. Ffhnay 29 f At the ii. quest on Amelia Uu'chkon the ! medical evidence was tlv..t the actual cause * of death was heart disease. DfccaiO »r si< ! er, however, gave evidence that deceased said she had been taking certain medicine $ procured by the f.uherof her child ; Una t^e a'ter bid ceased visi'iug her, and that tho young woman hvl got despondent and had written that the intended ib commit aircide. Tbn jvry thought, the iuqiviy alvnld be *dj urred to cimb'e feUs conienis of the eloma:h to be analysed, and this was done.

Our Regand to Mr.

The "dier of these 1 in e8 hereby tenders to Mr W. Clark Rursell th ? assurance of his thanks and appreciation. I have always lover! ee.\ storks, and tho^e of Mr Russell st-ntl Bt tho head of their c'ass. From ' The Wiei^k (f th<* (irobvenor, 1 to ' List, ye Lmid«ne'i !' T have read thim all. 'Set salt water, and the things thereon and therein, are not tho only things ho knows v abmit ; not by many degrees of latitude. I In his last book he makes a saiior talk | thus:— "l have suffered from the liver m I my time, and know what it is to have KEt/r \ mad. I say I have known moments when I could scarce restrain myself from breaking windows, kicking at tho shins of all who approached me, kuoeking my head against the wall, yelling with the yell of one who drops m a fit ; and all the while my brain was as healthy as the healthiest that ever filled a human skull, and nothing was wanted bub a musketry of calomel pills to dislodge the fiend," &c, &c. So much for what Mr Rnssell's sailor (or Mr Russell himself), says ; and there are plenty of people who can testify that this ia not a hit overdrawn. One fact m particular it helps us to realise, namely, that the life of a sailor does not guarantee good health. Indigestion and dyspepsia— of which liver complaint is a sequence and a symp om — are as common among sailors as among lands men. One of the latter, however, may now tell of his experience ' All my life *he says, • I had suffered from billiousness and sick head ■"-■-■ eches. I would have an attack about every three weeks. At s-jch times my appetite left; me, and I could neither eat nor drink for days together. I suffered from dreadful Bickneas and straining, and vomited a greenish -yellow fluid. My head felt as though ir, would burst. I had a bad taste m the mouth, sallow skin, and the whites of the eyes turned yellow. I was recommended to adopt a vegetarian diet, and did so, but the attacks were just as frequent and violent. I. consulted dootorsand took their medicines, but was none the better for it. In this way I went on year after year. 1 Well, we shall agree that there could scarcely be a worse way to go on, and it all came about thus : — The overworked stomach put more, on the liver' than the latter could do Indignant and disgusted at this the liver refused to do a stroke more than its proper share. Hence more bile accumulated m the blood than the liver was able remove. This surp'us bile acts as a slow poison — and not so very slow either. The tongue is furred ; the head aches and feels dull and he\vy ; the eyes and skin are greenish yellow ; (here i 3 dizziness and nausea ; cold liand3 and feet ; spots before the eyes ; a pungent, biting fluid rises into the throat ; constipation ; high coloured kidney secre tion ; prostrated nerves; irritability ; loss of ambition : fears and forebodings, &c , Ac. This is "biliousness" or "liver com plaint "m its simplest form When long unchecked it produces irregular action of the heart, rheumatism, goufc, and any or all, of a dcz n othsr organic disorders. There is no more certain or powerful impulse to mis behaviour ; suicide and other crimes often resulting. What to do? To get rid of the poison by starting the skin and bowcla into energetic ao'iou ; then to keep them going at a healthy and natural gait. How to do this t Let our friend Mr F. Widger, 4, Portland Square, Plymouth — whom we have just quoted — speak on that point. In his letter, dated March 3rd, 1893, -he dds " Two years ago. after all medicines had failed to help me, I first heard of Mother S iglfi's Curativs Syrup. I procured it from Mr R. S. Lnke, Chemist, Tavistock Road, and began to us? it, and nothing else. After having consumed one bottle I found myse!f vastly better, and by continuing with it I got r ; d of my oM 'rouble al ogef her./' We s^tfu'd mention that Mr Widgcr is a tailor and outfitter at P'ymouth, and well known and respeoted m that comrminitv. He permit* us to use his name out of grati tude for his l'ecovcry. The potency of Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup over liver disease is due to i:s a'-i'ity to cure indigeß-. tion and dyspepsia, which i 3 (js we have fluid) the came of liver disease. Kvery house on the land, and every ship on the sea, should have, this remedy as a necrssary part of their stock and ttore^. T'erhapß Mr Russpl' mny recommend it m his next hook But no *' musketry of calomel pi'.ls." Oh, r.o. j
