A WOMAN FROM AUSTRIA.

Near the village of Zillingdorf, in t/owet Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent and industrious woman, whose 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 af a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until [ was unable to retain either food or drink. [ was compelled to take to my bed for several week 9. Getting a little better from rest and quiet, I 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 and shortness of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to my bed for the second, and, as I thought, for the last 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 I happened to get one of the Seigel pamphlets. I read it, and my dear mother bought me a bottle of Seigel's Syrup, which I took exactly according to directions, and I had not taken the whole of it before I felt a great change for the better. My last illness began June 3rd, 1882, and continued to August 9th, when I began to take the Syrup. Very soon I could do a little light work. The cough left me. and I was no more troubled in breathing ,Now lam perfectly cured. And oh, how^happy lam ! 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 eood, 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 tent mine for six miles around our district. People have come eighteen miles to get me to :buy the medicine for them, knowing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the •right kind. I know a woman who was looking like death, and who told them there was no help for her, that she had Consulted several doctors, but none could help hei^* ,1 told her of Seigel's Syrup, $S»\wTOte->tho name dowD for her thnt she tntgh't make no mistake.* She took my Settee and the Syrup, and now- she is in £otfect -health, and tho people nmund us arx-'szaazed. The medi'-ino lias in.i<lc such gtßßgrcs&iu our noight>«~iiirlit>od that people act^bcff fort want the doctor any more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who were confined to their bed and could hardly move a finger, have been, cured by it. (There is a girl in our district who caught » cold by going through some 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 td church, and can work even in the fields. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out, knowing how many years she had been in bed. To-day she adds her gratitude to mine for God's mercies and Seigel's Syrup." ' Mabia Haas. ■The people of England speak confirming the above. After Mant Yiabs. " Whittle-le-Woods, near Chorley, "December 26th, 1883. }'I)ear Sir, — Mother Seigel's medicine sells exceeding well with us, all that try it speak highly in its favour. We had a case of a young lady that had been troubled many years with pains after eating. She tells us that the pains were entirely taken away after a few doses of your medicine. — Tours trnly, "E. Peel." After Sxvxbal Txabs. . " Stoke Ferry, January 9th, 1884. "Gentlemen, — I have used Seigel's Syrup for several years, and have found it a most efficacious remedy for Liver complaints and general debility, and I always keep some by me, and cannot speak too highly in its praise. — I remain, yours truly, " Harriet King." The Effects Hate Been Wonderful. " Ilford Road Dispensary, Dukinfield, "May 3rd, 1884. " Dear Sir, — I am happy to inform you that the sale of your Syrup and Pills increases heie continually. Several of my customers speak of having derived more benefit from the use of these than from any other medicine. In some instances the effects hare been wonderful. — Tour* vexj respectfully, "Pro.
