Use of Stimulants.
A stimulant can do no more than draw on the reserves; it borrows for one hour what must be paid back the next hour. No matter how you argue the point, no horse owner will believe that whips and spars can be substituted for oats and hay ! And so it is with men and women ; no amount of stimulants can take the place of good food, well digested. When appetite and digestion break down and you feel weak, nervous, prostrated, or a martyr to biliousness, as was the case with Mr William Frederick Page, you are not in a condition that can be cured by false or temporary stimulants.
What you need is Mother Seigel\s Syrup, the remedy that cu ed him. It does not spur you up and let you down afterwards, but it restores the lost power to your stomach, liver aud kidneys, so that you can digest the food you eat, much or little, and get from it the substantial nourishment that Nature intended you to have. That is the stimulant you want—the stimulant that stays and strengthens you !
Mr Page, of 167, Church street, Camperdown, .New Suuth Wales, wrote us on February 23rd, 1909, as follows: *• Eighteen months ago I was a martyr to biliousness. I doubt if any man could have worse attacks than I had, yet I had several of these attacks daily. At times I thought I would strain my inside, retching. I could not eat and oigest food to sustain my strength, and so my health very soon broke up. I was to ill, from disorded liver, that I cou:d not keep my head up. It simply prostrated me -I was almost helpless. I was under medical treatment for a long time, but cot no relief.
"Knowing what a sufferer J was, a friend of mine brought me a bottle of Mother Seigel's Syrup. The first bottle put a stop to the biliousness. Daily I improved, and couUl take a littie food without having a bilious attack ; s>o I soon gained strength. Alter taking a few more bottles of the Syrup, my sluggish liver, that had made me so helpless, was restoied to perfect working order, Since then. I have had no return of my complaint and 1 .-tiil remain perfectly cured." There are the plain facts. Mr Page was prostrated. He needed strength, and he found it, because Mother Seigel's Syrup enabled him to digest his food. Then "thai rood nourished him in the true natural way. Mother Seigel's Syrup is a purely herbal medicine that exerts a tonic, curative effect ou stomach, liver and bowels.. Then the poisons that arise from undigested food are no longer formed or carried into the system and good hpalth and strength surely follow. Disc**ion is the key to health. Mother Seigel's Syrup io the key to sound digestion.
