Woo hasn't heard of the good old Deae America, and his idea of how a chaise she bbe built 40 as to run for ever without re dare say we all have, yet he hasn't quite gone stale yet.
He suid, you remember, that the reason cruises broke down and didn't wear out was that there wus always a weakest. spot sowewhere about them. Now, suid the Deacon, the way to fix itis to make that spot as strong as the rest, Then the vehicle might wear out, but couldn't break down, He built a chaise on that principle; it never broke down; it ran a hundred yenrs exactly, and then one day it went to pieces all at once; all at once and nothing first, just as bubbles do when they burst." Its time was come; for, as the man says who once tald the story in rhynse, ttle of all we value here, wakes on the morn of its hundredth year, without both feeling and ooking weer."
Yes, und long before that time most of us begin to look and feel queer. And it's all on account of that weak spot, too. If it wasn't for that we should be like the Deacon's—we should run till we wear out. As it is we break down on the road, often beyond eepaic. But not always.
Otherwise a certain man could never have sused these words. 'I feel ax smart lo-lay ex did thirty years ays." His story, in his own words, runs this way "From my youth Iwas never proper! well, Thad a bad taste in the mouth an pain after eating. Often I couldn't touch food when it was set before me. I felt a gnawing at the stomach and a tightness at the chest and sides. Sometimes my bowels were swollen I had to loose my clothes. I had violent pains in my head for days together. This continued for years and years. About years ago I began to have rheumatic Regs. I got so bad I couldn't walk without a all ever me, especially in the back an

it was to be free from pain. As time went by I became quite crippled. Doctor after doctor gave me medicines and rubbing bottles, but none of the things I tried did any good. The doctors said my ailment was rheumatism and lumbago and made light of it, but it was serious enough for ne. For thirty years I suffered dreadfully. My wife used to rub me before the fire night after night and apply flannels relieving me only for the time, I gave up all hope of ever being well again, when in er, 1887, I read of the good Mother Seigel's Syrup had done in so many cases. I began to use it, and after taking a few bottles all my aches and pai left, me and have never returned since. medicine seems to have driven all the poison out of my system, and I feel as smart to-day as I did thirty years ago, for which{T than God and Seigel's Syrup. - Had I used it sooner should have been saved years of suffering." (Signed) Wrtram Sroppanr, Douglas, near Cork, Ireland, January 7th, 1802, Mr. Stoddart is gardener at Mrs. Edwards', the Island, Rochestown, and has a shop at Douglas. He is a very respectable m has been in service at Mrs. Edwards' renty years, In his letter he further states that from boyhood he was a victim to indigestion and dyspepsia. This fact explains the rheumatism, it was the cause of it. The bile acids from the torpid stomach and fiver filled the blood, lodged in the joints and muscles, and gave rise to all the consequences he describe. Th effect of the Syrup was to expel the acids from the body and set the digestive machinery healthily at work, for the first time in this man's life.
This was the way the human vehicle broke down in Mr. Stod rts cause, but fortunatel; for him he came across something that hi power to repair it, Better watch the weak spots. Delays are dangerous.
