You Must Have a Good Stove.
You can't have a,fire without burning r some kind of fuel. s , You agree to .this? "Why, of course. , Well, now suppose you. had bought a stove in whioh no fuel whatever would burn, what would you do; Throw it back on tbe dealer's hands ' and get another ; To be sure. Now, fancy you had , \ But let us bave the Btory firßt and draw tne conclusion afterwards.
A woman tolls this bit of experience :r"It was in 1882," ahe says, -'whenl began to feel ill and out of sorts. I did not know what was the matter with me. In tbe morning I was tired and languid, and was constantly spitting and belching up a clear fluid like water. My appetite gradually left me, and I had great pain at the cb^st. which at times seemed to strike thvv. ugh to the back and shoulders. I lost a great deal of sleep at night, owing to spasms and to wind that appeared to gather in my sides. No food, however simple, agreed with me. For three yearo I suffered like this, and could take no solid food, such as a meat dinner.
"Now, as I had always been of an active disposition, I strove bard to do my work and attend to my shop, bat in April, 1885, 1 got so bad that I sent for my daughter, who was Hying at Priest Hutton, near Camfortb, ' and sbe returned home. Whilstaway she bad been under a doctor for weakness and nenralgia, bat getting no better she bad been recommended to take a medicine called Mother Seigel'a Curative Syrup, and this cured her ; so she insisted upon my taking the came medicine. I got a bottle from Messrs. Needbam Broß., cbemißta, Brighouse, and begas to take it. In a day or two I found relief. Soon all my pains left me, and I gradually gained Btrengtb. I could eat my food, and after having used two bottles I found myself completely cured. "I have recommended this medicine to many of my friends and customers who come to my shop, and it has" done them good : bo I think it right that its virtues should be made as widely known as possible." (Tigned) Mrs, Ooljinge, grocer, Rastrick, Brigbouse, n?ar Halifax. Another woman says .^ln .December, 1885, after my cocfinement, I be^an to have a poor appetite and moch paip aud sickness after eating. My food seemed to turn to wind, and I suffered from fullness in the cbest and pain iD the stomach. I gradually lost my strength, and fell into a low, desponding state of mind. However hghtiood I took I had pain, 80 that I became afraid to eat. I lost a deal of sleep, and got so weak I was frequently obliged to lie down on the couch and reßt. At times the pan was almost more f ban I could bear, and I bad to go to bed and have hot Bait applied to my cheßt and stomach, for when these attacks came ou I felt as if I was dying. The dootor who attended me said I was suffering from Chronic Indigestion, and that something was wrong with the "upper Btomach." What a strange Statement for a. dootor to make ; He did all he could to relieve me, but without success, and I lingered" <>n iv this way for twelve months. About ibis time Mr. Connor, Stevedore, living ac Denoison Street/told my father of the great benefit he bfld derived from taking Mother SeigeJ's Syrup, and I Bent, at once and got a bottle, and after taking three bottles all pain left me. I got strong and could eat anything, and from that time to this I have never been ill. I keep the medicine in the house, and if any of the family ail any thine a dose or two of Mother Seigel's Syrup sets them right. (Signed) Mrs. Reid,, 12, Gajton Street, Great Howard Street, Liverpool. We said you cannot have a fire without burning some kind of fuel. The human stomach is a otove, and food is the fuel we put into it. If the food is consumed, or digested, the body is nourished and built up, and we enjoy health and strength ; but if otherwise we quickly waste away and perish. Now> when tho stomach refuses to digest, burn or consume food, wo bave what is called indigestion and dyspepsia, the most common and dangerous of all diseases. This is what ailed tbeße two women, and what ails millions more in this country. The Conclusion is plain enough : — Tbe remedy which cured them will cure otberß. Then (then the fire burning well) we shall have heat, which ia life and .power.
