A CLEAN CUT INDIVIDUAL OPINION, BOLDLY EXPRESSED.

It is for this reason tint an assertion like the following sticks up above the dead level of our stupid talk, and becomes noticeal le ; " When I saw liow pale I had grown I said to myself, it was because something had gone out of my blood." There ! that is a statement with the seeds of an idea in it. Suppose we follow it up by quoting the rest of the letter which contains it.

In December, 1890, says the writer, 'I fell into a poor siate of health. I was tired, languid, and we*ry without apparent cause. My appetite left me, and all fo>d. even the lightest and simplest kinds, caused me great pain in the chest and stomach. When I saw how pale I had grown I sdd to myself it was because something had gone out of my blood. 1 Then my sleep was broken, and night after night I scarcely closed my eyes. It wasn't long before 1 became so weak and dejected that I took no interest in things around me. I was so nervous that common sounds annoyed me; even the noises made by my own children in thei r talk and at their pay. ' There was a disgusting taste in my mouth; it made me sick, and often gave me a shivering sensation all over. When I saw othere eating and enjoying their meals I felt as though it were a strange thing ; in a way I wondered how they could do it. For myself I could eat hardly anything. Food went against me, and 1 turned away from it, as one turns from smells or sights that are offensive. And yet I knew, what everyone knows, that without sufficient food Ihe body languishes and weakens. And such was the case with me as month after month went

'Dining all this time, so full of pain and discouragement, I was attended by a doctor who did all he could to relieve me, but without success. Ido not say he did not understand my complaint; for may he not have understood it without having the means of curing it ?' The answer to the lady's question is: Yes. easily enough. All intelligent, studious doctors ' understand ' consumption, cholca, cancer, &c., without (as yet) having the means of curing them. There is usually a wide gap between the discovery of a want and the way to supply it. ' I will now,' continues the letter, • tell you bow I came to be cured- In April, 1891, I read in a small book or pamphlet about Mother Seigel's Syrup The book said the Syrup was a certain remedy for all the diseases of the stomach, indigestion in every form, and dyspepsia; and it also said that most of the complaints we suffer from are caused by that' On looking over the symptoms described in the book, and cnmparinE them with my own, I saw plainly that my ailment was dyspepsia. 'We sent immediately for a bottle of this medicine, and after taking it a few d<ys I beg™ to feel better. In a very short time, by keeping on with the Syrup according to the directions, 1 could e>t without pain or distress, and digest my f od. I also slept soundly and naturally. Then my strength came back and with it the colour to my face. In short, after a few w-eks use of Mother Seigel'a Syrup, I was hearty aad strong as ; eyer. And Jshou'd be indeed ungrateful if I were not willing that others should have ih? benefit of my experience. You are therefore free to print my letter if you think it will b« useful.* (Sinned) (Mrs)M. Truran, Mfcrtou. Lincoln, Apiil 24, 1895.' I simp'y desire to say to Mrs Truran that tier idea about the blood ie a perfectly correct one. All our food; (the digestible part of it)

is turned into blood, and in that stnpe ifr feeds the entire body. When the blood gets thin and poor (lacking in nourishment), we lose flesh and grow feeble and pale. And the cause of the blood getting thin and poor is indigestion, or dyspepsia. How easy this is to understand when once you get hold of the right end of ir. Mother Seigel's Syrup has the peculiar power to correct what is "wroDg about the digestion, and thus enablee the digestive machinery to make good rich blood. Which is life and health and beauty-.
