THE MAN WHO KNOWS THE ROAD.

He drives directly home, even in dark nights, does the man who knows the road. The overhanging gloom, the deceptive shadows, the uncertain sounds, don't bother him. He coo feel the ground under hia waggon wheels, and the 'lay of tho land' is open to him as at clear noontide. It is the stranger in those parti who is confused and befuddled, who knocks people up to ask questions, who finally lodges in the ditch.

Where to go and how feo get there; what to do, and how to do it—why, the man who knows that comes to the front everywhere and always. But the opposite —the waste of time, money, power, health, etc., in blind experiments, how disheartening and disastrous it is I Take an illustration of this sorb, and you will see how ifc fibs io a minute.

" In the spring of 1892," says a lady who lives down near the easb coast, "I began to feel ill. I bad a poor appetite, and afber everything I ate, no matter bow simple ib was, I was seized with great pain across the chest and around the sides. I was frequently sick, vomiting a sour, bitter fluid. I was almost afraid to eat, and my food gave me no strength. _ In bhis state I continued, now a bib better, and bhen worse unbil December, 1893,/ when I became very ill. I got so weak I could hardly bear the weight of my body on my feeb. I tried this and I tried that—all kinds of medicines I heard of, but none of them gave me any relief. "In January, 1894,1 read in a libtle book aboub bho cures done by Mother Seigel's Syrup. The book contained lebters from people who had been cured, some of whom had Buffered like me. I gob a bottle from Miss Caroline Foster, grocer and draper, High-street, in this place. After taking ib I was much better. 1 had a new relish for food, and no distress after eating. I continued taking Mother Soigel's Syrup, and was soon free from all pain and sickness and faab gaining strength. Since then 1 have been in bhe best of health, and needed no medicine. (Signed) Mrs Eleanor Clay, Messingham, Brigg, Lines, April 30th, 1895." ••■ln the early parb of 1875,' writes another, "my health began to fail me. I felb low and weak, and lost all power and disposition to exert myself. After every meal I had pain in the chest and all over me. I felb so tight around the waist that ib seemed as though something waa holding me. I was much troubled wifch a siekeaing wind coming up from my stomach ; and now and then I belched up a sour fluid that bit my throat and half choked me. Then, too, I had attacks of spasms, which gave me intense pain. I got about my work slowly and in much distress, and grew gradually weaker and more despondenb in mind. I tried all the various medicines I could hear of that might possibly be good for me, but none of them were of any avail. '• After five tedious years of suffering, my daughber, who is in service in London, wrote me of the benefit ber mistress had derived from the use of Mother Seigel'b Curative Syrup when troubled much I was. I replied, and my daughter senb me two bottles of the Syrup, and after having taken ib, I felb quite like a new woman, I had no pain after eating, and was in better health than I had been in since I was first taken ill. From thab time onwards my health was good and if I ail anything ten\porarily, aa bhe best of us will, a few doses of Mother Seigel's Syrup put me right. 1 have told many persons of whab this now celebrated remedy did for me, and am willing you should publish my statement if you desire to do so. (Signed) (Mrs) Ann Knight, near tbe Church, Fenny Compton, Leamington, September 29tb, 1895." By looking back to the italicised words in these letters the reader will catch my poinb on the insbanb. Both theße ladies, nob knowing the trne remedy for their disease (indigestion and dyspepsia), blindly experimented with anything they coald get bold of. Under like circumstances we all do the same. When one doesn't know the road he is almosb certain bo blunder and stumble ; and he can'b know until he learns. Now, in all ailments of the digestion, with the local symptoms which proceed from ib, Mother Seigel's Syrup is, so to put ib. the right road. Follow ib faithfully, and you are fairly sure to bring up in the pleasant shelter of good health. Knowing this, direcb your neighbours.
