A WOMAN FROM AUSTRIA.
Near the village of Zillingdorf , in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent tad industrious woman, whoße story of physical suffering and final relief, as related by herself, is of interest to English women. " I was employed," she says, " in the work Df a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retain either food or drink. t wa3 compelled to take to my bed for 3everal weeks. Getting a little better from rest and quiet, 1 sought to do some work, but was soon taken with a pain in my side, which in a little while seemed to spread over my whole body, and throbbed in my every limb 'This was followed by a cough tnd shortness of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to my bed for the second, and, as I thought, for the hist time. My friends told me that my time had nearly come, and that I could not live longer than when the trees put on their green once more. Then X happened to get one of the Seigel pamphlets. I read it, and my.dear mother bought me a bottle of SeigelV Syrup, which I took exactly ac•ording 4d directions, and I had not taken the whole of it before I felt a great change f»r the better. My last illness began June Ird, 1882, and continued to August 9th, when I began to take the Syrup. Very loon I could do a little light work. The cough left me, and I was no more troubled in breathing -Now lam perfectly cur«d. And oh, how happy I am ! I cannot express gratitude enough for Seigel's Syrup. Now I must tell you that the doctors in our district distributed handbills cautioning people against' the medicine, telling them it would do them no good, and many were thereby influenced to destroy the Seigel pamphlets ; but now wherever one is to be found, it is kept like a relic. The few preserved are borrowed to read, and I have feat mine for six miles around our district. fStttßtethave come eighteen miles tp get me tnfbuy the medicine for them, knowing cured me, and to be sure to get the •dght kind. I know a woman who was Molting " like death, and who told them fbere was no help for her, that she had Salted "several doctors, but none could .'Jhtt^'l told her of Seigel's Syrup, vVtrtrte/tbe name dowD for her that she SW m&e no mistake.* She took my oa,'«zid the Syrup, and now she is in let 'health, and the jwuplo anmmi us mm ■inayd The inndi'-in. h;is made >u<'h tawnsMU l , our neigh ix>uiliou'.l ih v people ■JsTtfair fMTiTint the doctor any uioca fcut they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who wore confined to their bed and oould hardly move a finger, have been •ured by it. There is a girl in our district who caught a cold by going through Borne water, and was in bed five years with costiveness and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch by her. There was not a doctor in the surrounding districts to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, but every one crossed themselves and said they could not help her. Whenever the little bell rang which is rung in our place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, but Seigel's Syrup and Pills saved her life, and now she is as healthy as anybody, goes to church, and can work even in the fields. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out, knowing how many years ■he had been in bed. To-day she adds her gratitude to mine for God's mercies and Seigel's Syrup." Maria. Haas. The people of England speak confirming the above. Aster Many Tears. "Whittle-le-Woods, near Charley, " December 26th, 1883.
