THE GLORY OF MAN.

Thb crown aad glory of manhood, is strength — power. All human conquests have been won by it; individual and ) collective. The earliest sign of decay ) in man is not usually paiu, but weakness of gome kind — of mind or body, or both. Thie may be the inevitable j , sequense of advanced years, or it may, ' as we all know, show itself at any l period of life. But it always msans ! that the sources of strength are failing. I as the lessening of the water in a river means a drying up of the springs and streams which feed it. r I said . " sources 17 of strength, using , the plural word. I should have sitid "source of strength, for in human j ' beings there is but one. What is it ? Perhaps the experience of Mr. D*?id * Jones will help us to an answer. "In tho summer of .1881, " he says, , . '' I began to feel ill and out of sorts. j . I was weak and tired, and quite worn ' out with little exertioD. I had a poor * appetite, and after eating had paia and L weight at the cheat. My secretions | were scanty and thick. My back felt , stiff, and gave me much pain as I . moved about. For three years I ■ suffered like this, being at times better i and then worse. I consulted a doctor, ; who gave me medicines and recom- ■ mended Turkish baths; but I got no ' better foe any kind of treatment. ' 'My brother then told me about ' Mother Ssigel's Curative Syrup, bat I ■ had no faith ia advertised medicines. , He, however, urged me to take it , and after taking a few doses I experienced so much relief that I continued with it, and was soon strong and well as ever. Since that tim 3 I take a dose of this remedy when I feel at all ailing, and it seta me right, I have praised Mother Seigel's Syrup to all my friends, nuny of whom have tried it and been benefitted by it. You dan publish this statement as you like. (Signe) David Jones, 1, Dunluce Street, Walton Liverpool, July 31st, 1896.' We have room for one more short letter before we try to come at the answer to the question wiih which we set out. It is exaoly in the same line, and ought to make the results of oar inquiry all the more clear aad plain. "lathe spring of 1888, " proceeds the writer, " my health bogan to fail me. I felt languid and heavy, as if something had come over me. I had a bad taste in the mouth, my appetite was poor, and the little food I took gave ms pun across the chest and b tween t L e shoulders. My food lay like lead on my stomach. I was constantly spitting up a thick phlegm, and when in bed heavy sweats came over me. I got weaker , and weaker, and from time to time was confined to bed. Ofteu I was so bad I could not dress or undress myself. "Now better, now worse, but never well. I suffered for over fiva years. I took different iiads of mcdi iues, and had a doctor, but got no real benefit from anything, 11 In July, 1893, a book was left at my house ia which I read of oisas like mine having been oared by Mother Seigel's Syrup. I got a bottle from the International Tei Company, Yeovil, and began taking it. In a short lime I felt much benefit, and, by continuing wfth it, gained strength. I could eat better, food agreed with me, and by-and-by I was strong a»d well. Bui for Mother Seigel's dyrup I balieve I should not now be alive.
