shown their comrade and inspired with
curiosity to know why the distinction

poisons, producing the brilliant dyes

The latter are violent headaches, nausea
and vomiting. DIzbIiicsb' Tp!of toil pres

The new ITebrldes Archipelago eom-

which measures about seventy miles
in length by about thirty in breadth.
The aborigine# of the group have all
coin# from the same lhtpuan stock; yet
not only do they differ very much In
physical aspect, but tribes are abso
lutely foreigners to other trlltes. Not
only has c#oh island its own language,
but so also has each tribe; at any rate,
it la recorded that on one of the islands
alone there arc six native towns in
which six distuieUangtiuges are spoken.
These biPRmqtHs, uo ilcubt. have all a
eertnlu athuity, yet they are marked by
differences somewhat broader than
what we are accustomed to regard aa
dialects. This confusion of tongues is
one of the most rviuaikahlo character

softly advancing nnd recoding, now
clasping her iiauds across her bosom or
pressing them to lior forehead —but
perpetually keeping the bottle and

she sank, with a change of musical ac

The alarming dise/wc of this
country in nerv'ous debiUty and
prostration. It £oea under
many narr.es but it is essen
tially the same complaint,
Hospitals and privnte institu
tions for nervous patients are
crowded. The average of life
in the United 'States is de
creasing every year* Sadden
deaths from nervous collapse
among our business, profess
ional and public men are so
frequent as scarcely to excite
remark. The majority of sui
cides, committed without ap
parent reason, or under so-called
“depression of spirits,” are
really prompted by nervous
prostration, which is a fruitful
source of insanity and crime
with all their grief and horror.
These facts are startling.
They threaten the very life of
the nation. Thoy assail the
springs of its power and pros
perity. They wreck manhood’s
strength and woman's useful
ness and beauty.
Every one should know the
causes. What are they ? The
answer is easy and terribly
plain; Our vicious personal
habits; our careless and lawless
eating and drinking; the in
tense mental nnd physical strain
arising from our mad race after
money, position and influence;
the fears and struggles of pov
erty; the use of narcotics and
stimulants; our fashion of
turning day info night and
night into day; and, briefly,
our , desperate willingness to
pay any pi-ice for an hour’s
pleasure or success. So we
burn life’s candle at both ends
and fill the lunatic asylums
and tho graveyards.
The disease from* which we
suffer and die is, in plain Eng
lish, Nei'vous Dyspepsia, as it
» seated in the Nerves and in
flationand Nutrition. Healthy
digestion being impeded or des
troyed, the whole body, nerves
included, is literally starved;
even when there is no emaci
ation to tell the sad story.
Nervous prostration sends
out its warnings:—headache
in tho morning; a persistent
dull heaviness or aching at the
base of tlie brain; wakei illness;
loss of appetite and disgust with
food; loss of mental energy and
interest in ordinary duties and
business; restlessness and anx
iety without any assignable
reason; eructations; bad
breath; foul mucous on tire
teeth; occasional giddiness;
palpitation of the heart; sal
lowness of the skin; coated
tongue and gradual failure of
strength and ambition.
The remedy is a total aban
donment of the habits and cus
toms which cause the disease
in each individual case, and the
use of Shaker Extract of Hoots
(Seigcl’s Syrup) to cure the
mischief already done. This
great remedy, prepared by tire
Shaker Community of Mt, Leb
anon, N. Y., is especially adapt
ed to eradicate Nervous Dys
pepsia. To do this it acts
directly and gently but power
fully upon the disordered stom
ach, liver and kidneys, restor
ing their tone and vigor, pro
moting the secretion of bile, ex
pelling waste matters from the
system,and purifying the blood.
Upon the nervous system
Shaker 2?atfrac<(Seigel’s Syrup)
acts as a safe and wholesome
anodyne without the slightest
narcotic effect, and then leaves
the nerves to regain their nat
ural tone nnd strength through
its wonderful influence
wonderful mltuence upon
the function of nutrition.
It is safe to say more nerv
ous dyspeptics have been re
stored by it from tlie depths
of misery to a fresh enjoyment
bf life and labor than by any
or all other forms of treatment
combined
