Strong English Words.

When a person says " I suflered excrucia r—^ibe pain," he expresses a fact m the i k strongest words afforded by the English ! language. The woid • excruciating ' comes r from crux, a cross, and signifies an intensity of agony comparable only to that endured by one who undergoes the barbarous punish- I ment of crucifixion. There are some diseases, which, for a time, cause pain of this acute and formidable nature. To find a relief for it, when possible, is at once the impulse of humanity and the studious desire 1 of science. Two brief examples may indie Ue what Buccess is attending the effort to both comfort and cure caßes of this kind. " Nearly all my life," writes an intelligent •woman, "I have borne the burden of what seemed to be incurable illness. 1 alwayß felt heavy, weary, and tired. My appetite was poor, and after eating I had a cruel pain at my chest and between the shoulders. ,' Frequently ihe pain waa so intense that I was impelled to loose my clothing and walk about "the room. My nerves were disordered and impressible, and I was, consequently, easily disquieted and upset. My sleep wue habitually bad, and I seemed none the better for spending a night m bed. Eating Lut little my strength waned of necessity, and \ came to be very weak. For a long time I got about feebly and with difficulty. "In August, 1887, I had nn attack of rheumatic gout, which gave me the mo3t harrowing experiences of my life. The I complaint took its usual course and refused to yield to the ordinary treatment. Through the partial failure of the liver and kidneys j dropsy set m and- my legs and feet became j puffed and swollen. I suffered excruciating pain and was confined to my bed for thirteen weeks. Remedies of every description were tried but to little purpose. •My- brother, vi?it\Dg me one day, said be had been cured of an attack of dropsy by Mother Se gel's Syrup. I got a bottle from Mr Hewitt, the chemist, m Seven Sisters Koad, and after taking it felt a trifle easier. I continued taking it, and soon the pain and swelling abated. I could eat without pain or inconvenience, and by a few weeks further use of the Syrup I was not only free from any local ailment, but felt : better than I ever x did iv my life before. Since then I have enjoyed continuous good health, taking a do.se of Mother Seigel's j Syrup occasionally for some transient indis position. You are at liberty to publish my 2. letter. Signed, Mrs X izabeth Rogers, 42, Plevna Read, South Tottenham, London, .^.September 13tb, 1895.' Wmm 'In January, 1892,' writes another, ' I had P^Jiiß attack of it.fluenza, and was confined to my bed for eighteen weeks thereafter. Subsequently I was very weak and could . get up no strength. What little food I, f jrced down (having no appetite) pave me excruciating pain, bo that I was afraM to eat. I came to be exceedingly weak and had frequent attacks of dizziness. I was worn almost to a skeleton and none thought I would recover. •In June, 1892, Mr Smith, a fn-nd of ours, recommended me to try Mother Seigel's Syrup, which I at once procured of Mr "~~ George Coou.b?, the chemist m HucknalJ. After t iking it for only one week 1 felt greatly benefited. I couid eat better, and fo.dag-eed with me. Continuing with the Syrup I grew stronger and stronger, and soon felt even better than before I wai attacked by the influenza You are free to print this statement if you wish to do .so. igued, Mrs Ruth HaMday, 44, High Streer, Hucknall Torkar •', Nottingham, Ma-ch 19th, 1895' . Intense. pain may or may not indicate urgent, danger to life, but it is hard to bear, aud very exhausting jusc the same In cases of rheumatic gout (Mrs Rogers) the pain is "~ caused by a poisonous acid m the tissues, originally produced by the decomposition of food m the stomach — indigestion or dyspepsia. The same poison acting on the liver and kidneys creates the other symptoms mentioned. In the case of Mrs Halliday the ailment was dyspepsia, which m the first place invited influenza, and then remained to torment her. It is best; and easiest to prevent pain by using JMother Seigel's Syrup immediately when the slightest illness appears.

A Plucky Girl.

r A Bhort time ago, aa a party of young people were Crossing a wooden bridge which W spans the river Faughan, about a mile from m^ the village of Claudy, a young gentleman f ~ v^from Belfast, who had come to the village ' to marry one of the ladies who had accom panied him on this occasion, missed his foot and fell into the water, which was about \ 20ft deep at the place. When the young \ lady caw her lover disappearing from view k - she piteoußly appealed to those near her for help, but m vain, as no one fell inclined to' court almost certain death. When he was about to disappear for the third time ehe heroically leaped from the bridge into^the v —' deep waters, and with one hand she assisted her lover while she ewam with considerable difficulty against the current. After great w^_ exertion, and when almost exhausted, she v v — "brought iim to the riverside, when both were helped out. Restoratives were applied,. f and after some time both were able to pro ceed to their respective residences.
