CURIOUS THEORY ABOUT EARTHQUAKES.
"The cause of earthquakes is sic," said a famous preacher. How he reasoned it out is not easy for the average sinner to see. The suggestion that tlie destruction of Messina and lleggio resulted from the violation of moral law would be considered rank nonsense by modern scientists. Hannah Moro, the great authoress, came nearer the truth when she said: "The cause of a deal of sin is bile." That bit of wisdom we can understand. Bile poisons the brain, and the brain is the organ of the mind and senses. All the earthquakes that ever shook this wicked world never did as much harm to human beings as is done every year by sleepy stomachs and lazy livers.
Here is an example: "Three years back," wrote Mr Alfred Wain, of 174, Station street, Carlton, Vivtoria, m 1907, "biliousness attacked me very severely and with it came acute indigestion. I could digest nothing, and the pains after eating were awful. [ I had to give up smoking, as the pains became more intense after a pipe, and it brought ,on'yomiting. All my energy eeernetjutq ,:ooze away.' / ;My,- sleep was broketfj and jin the morning I felt as tiradea^ ; ;when J.'went.to, bed.- My ,w,orl£'became' a'grinding drudgery." |,j That -^as' Mr. Wain's ■ serious condic tj(jn. when he began to take 'Hother ■oeigel'a, Syrup. '"After six bottles of "the S^rupi" he says; -'I Tvas cured* of 'm^ittdigestion, ibiliousness and all ihe miseries; they brought. I ara( now quite well' and; enjdy. "a* smoke as'of old.' 1 Twiyiffsprs:; later ,(Apro 19Q9), Mr Waid'v*rpte\us agairi'Saying: |"I still retain the utmost confidence \in my favourite Temedy, Mother Seigel's Syrup. It cured me thoroughly of piliousness and indigestion, and a dose now and then keeps my health at liigh.water mark." ; !
There is no magic about the cure; of Mr Wain. Mother Seigel's Syrup cleanses and invigorates stomach, liver and bowels. That is the secret of jits success m curing biliousness and ifidigetion. Take it daily after meals.'
