THE PITY OF IT!

It has boen woll said that Memory is left us to sweeten the days of our advancing years. That memories of the past can bo equally sweet to all alike is, of course, impossible. But this much is certain: | that many of our painful experiences, when recalled, come with, added bitterness because of the knowledge that they might have been avoided. This reflection is prompted by reading a letter from .Mr- W. Hughf, which is typical of many thousands that we have received from all parts of our scattered Empire. Writing on July 25, 1915, from 31 Rutland Street, Petrie Terrace, Brisbane, Queensland, he said: — '

" My recollection of Mother Seigel's Syrup extends back to my boyhood's days, for it was the remedy which my mother used to always give me whenever anything went amiss with my health. But my own best experience of it was gained some three years back in Sydney, .N.S..W. I had but"recently arrived from the Homeland, and the change of climate, diet, and methods of living affected my health to a considerable extent. I went off my appetite, felt languid and incapable of exertion, could not sleep properly, and suffered a lot from indigestion and latulcncy. Whilst not ill enough to lay up, or in severe pain, I yet felt uncomfortable and completely out of sorts, and lacked my usual energy, tone, and high spirits. So I enquired about my old Home-Friend, Mother Soigel's Syrup, and was delighted to discover that it was just as easy to obtain in Australia as in Durham. I procured a bottle, and before it was emptied I felt like a new man. The wind ceased to roll about in my stomach and rise to my throat, my appetite revived, and I quickly recovered all my old-time energy, strength, and cheerfulness. Each dose of the remedy infused new vigour and vitality into" my system, and after using it for a few weeks I was so well that I could not wish to be better. Mother Seigel's Syrup is a medicine of superlative worth and merit." On the first sign of' Stomach or Liver Trouble, take 'the world-renowned remedy, Mother Seigel's Syrup, and ensure that your memories dd not become nightmares. ■
