HABITS, GOOD AND BAD.

Lord Lytton, the celebrated novelist, said that man is a bundle of habits. We quite agreo. Unlike money, habits aro easily acquired and only got rid of with great difliculty ; which makes it so important that newly acquired htvbits should be good. ! People get into the habit of dyspepsia just aa thoy get. into other bad habits. | They delude themselv6s in regarding, it | as a diseaao, not a habit ; but they aro j wrong. Dyspepsia is a habit first, a disease afterwards. It appears flrat as slight indigestion, and you say to /ourself: "Oh, this will bo over soon 1" You . are right in «o thinking, but the pain returns next time you eat. If you aro ju&t beginning' this habit, be more careful "of what you cat j cat slowly; don't eat too much; chew your food well. If the habit has got a firm grip of you, take Mother Seigel's Syrup. In that way only can you effectually shako it off. People become so accustomed to dyspepsia that, they think it is -not dangerous. When the dangerous symptoms come they aro taken for somo other diseu«e, and treated Accordingly. Half the cases go uncured, and most of those who are cured aro the people wlio take Mother Sclkol's Syrup. VVriting on 17th December, 1903, Mrs. Charlotte Mcdson, of 2, James-street, Abbotsford, Melbourne, says: — "From my fourteenth year I was a great Butterer from chronic indigestion and oilioiiHness (dyspepsia). As I grew into womimhood my complaints increased. After eating I experienced agony, which caused the mere ' Smell of food being cooked to b» intolerable to mo. When my sufferings wero particularly keen, tho enly way in which I could obtain some slight relief was by lying extended at full length on the hard floor. At such periods life waa a burden to mo. I s punt much money on medicines, but obtained no relief from it. A doctor whom I consulted evidently failed to understand my caso Not until just, before tho birth of my «lde«t child, now nearly seven years ago, did I have tho good fortune to hear- of Mother Seigel's Syrup. It was iccommeuded to me t>y a neighbour when I was nt my worst. I had not taken the medicine for moro than a few days^wfoen I felt like a different woman. My pains left me, I could eat food with relish, and I gained in health, strength, «id spirits daily. Four bottles of Mother Seigel's Syrup ' proved sufficient for my complete and permanent cure.*' Some bad habits trouble everybody moro th«n they do their possw-sor. Th»t a not so with dyspepsia, which tit tones renders its victims desperate with misery. It is well to grapple with it oarly.
