United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph. Ftbatford Feb. 6 At the Magistrates' Court this morning, P. J. White, pleaded guilty to two oharges of selling liquor, without a license at Whangamomona. Five other informations were then withdrawn by the police. He was fined £25 on each oharge.

Sleep When Work is Done.

During tha lste summer (1896) I passed feve.'al weeks in a foreign city Dearly 700 miles furiher south than London We hid about ten days intense heat.aiid for six nights, when It was wowt, I dj no: think I si ptas many hours altogether. Tho resultiu" iurTons collapse was simply awful. My brain reeled, I could neithtsr understand nor do anytbi^ rightly. I wa'ktdan th« good Book says "in a vain show." What a blessed thing is seep ; how destructive, how killing to l<.-se it. In healthy i leep the nervous system is inaclive—more especially that of the brain and spinal cord. The bo.«ly lies quiet, the muaclas relaxed, the pulaa j-lower than when we tra awake, and the breathing 1.-s fr. quent but dwepar. Then :iature-wiae ketptr of ihe Houße of Life —proceeds io ret ft w he energies expend* d : hrou-ih the day. To nai.-s this renewal, i-ven n part, isi to tread the edge of in sanity hiA Lck iuto tho mouth of d3afh.

*• Mttthonghil heard a voiss cty, * Bieup no mire ; Macbe'h doth murder s!t*ep ! " o saic Macbeth himselr ; bub there 18 a power which murders maro bleep th*n ever did UuhOAa'a assAssin ; and to tJiai Mrs B-atti« »'iufles when ultesuys of l.er daughter, 4l She got uo sleep " *• In May, 1891,' writes the lady, " my cliuahter Lttitk full ituo ' a low, weak noi di ion, and could not gut up htr atreugth Shft hnd no appetite, and wh&t little food she tock give her groat p.in af the theht and bide She got no sleep at night, and b'came very nerv >us and low spirited "A& time pabsed by she grew weaker and more feeble, and we thought she would never get better. A doctor at tended her, but none of his medicines seemed to eu't her case, and f jrtwo years she continued to softer.

** One day she read in a book s*bout Mother SeigelV Curative Syrup and whit ie had done for others. She gut a bottle from Mr Nicholis, chemise Doneal Piace and after taking ifc began to improve, be ing able to eat, and her food agreeing wlthher. Afterhaving used this medicine a short time she was strong and well as ever, and has since been in good health. For a long time 1 myself suffered from weakness and indigestion, and seeing whit good Mother Seigel's Syrup had done, I took it and was completely restored to sound health. Yon may use thin sfate ment as you Uke. (Signed.) (Mrs) Mary Beattie, 23, Trinity ir'quare, Belfast, August 14rh, 1896." " In cne early part of 1894." writts an other, I " began to suffer from indigestion. I had a poor appotite, and all food gave me pHin at rcy chest and a gnawing feeling st the Stomach. No ma'-er how 1 gtie tfaa food I took T had pain and sick head ache.

" For over a year 1 was tormented like this", when Mr John Weir, living in this place, told me how he had been cured by Mothtr £eigei'fl Syrup, and rect na i.end d me to try it. I did Ko, and s-oon all p«m left ma, and 1 have since c joyed g< od health I know many pereous residing in this district who have been benefited by taking the same medicine- Often in my shop I heaif persons say what it has done for them. Yon are at liberty to publish this letter. (Signed) Alexr. Wilson, General Merchant, Castlewellan, Newcastle, Co, Down Ireland, Aug. 15th, 1896."

Indigestion or dyspepsia destroys the pewer to sleep by starving, and thus weakening, the nervous system. Indeed the whole body starves, and is thrown into profound disorder. Food nny be taken into the stomach, but, »s people constantly say '"It does no good." No ; but iD a sense it does harm. Formented, scured, undigested it develops poisons which act upon the system somewhat as a pestilence does uebn a community. Flesh Is lost, strength gives way to trembling weakness, conrage is supplanted by faar, a d life is dreary and desolate. That Mother Selgel'b Syrup should be able to cure a disease so common and so terrible is reason for gratitude to as all. For the healthy work and sleep.
