I* I don't believe there is a ivord of truth in 'it.' I That's the way certain foolish peoplo talk i when they hear of anything unusual, or j outside tho limits ot their own observation ;or experience. They aro of tho sort who ! laughed at Stephenson when he introduced tho railway, and at Morse when ho said that jwo could communicato by means of elec : tricity. Yet they don't laugh at those j things now. They make use of them daily. Somo months ago the caso of Mrs Mary 1 Cuddy was firsb. published. The great I public accepted tho facts, as they had every j reason to do.

[COPY. ] I, Mary Cuddy, of 2S, Catherine-street, Richmond Road, Leeds, do solemnly and sincerely deelure aa follows :— Ever since I was a girl I have suffered | from illness. I nlwuys bad a pain both I before and after eating, and nevor seemed j able to gain and keep my strength, and ! folt that something waa (lulling me down. I had a nasty queer fooling in my stomach. Sometime:, food seemed to ease it, and at other times it made mo feel worse, and often I wont without food, for I ! was airaid to eat. Commonly when food was placed beforo me I could not ! touch it, and I often fainted at tho very eight of ib. After a while I became so weak I could scarcely stand or walk. I thought it was consumption coming on by degrees and I took all sorts of medicines to cry and get relief, but ib was of no use, and 1 got tired of taking physic, for I had lost tdl faith in it.
