You have a very sore finger, let us say. [r may be a hurt, i boii— or, w.use still, that fearfully pai-fill tiling, a felon. Oh, my ! oh, my ! Whit a time yon have ben trying to protect that poor tinge". It is all the time gel ling hit or knocking airainst something. Simply to keep it out of harm's
way worries you more than doing a day's w-rk ; uid you don't succeed—ami wouldn't, even with a dozen policemen to help you. Von aie scared of a fly threatening to light on it.
That is the principal on which .Mrs Eliza - beth Allen con du't bar the least noi-e. She had no sore linger, but she had what was still more i-ensit va —-a body full of sore nerves : weak, sarved, unstrung nerves. So the p attic of children, the closing of a door, the momentary roar of a waggon in :li ■ street, the clatter of di-hes in the kitchen the thousand and one suuids ami noises ilnt are in th: air constantly—why, the smallest of them s ruck he like a blow fiom a c!u'>. No;s s M'lii'jh a.enot regnded by
a well persoi. are liki v dley.s of musketry to one in this condition. Mi,linn of women know nil sib'iiit it, and plenty 01 men too—crowds of ti.ciri. You leeogniso them on sight—those who are subj ct to this :ifll etion Their lined forehe i«l* - , their bright, suspic'o'ts eyes, their self-protecting yes-
tu.es ai.d maimer—you've seen them. Perhaps you are one of thorn yourself. If so you'd give all your money and mortgage
your future to hive a strong r set of nerves, wouldn't you ? Let's t ilk about it tw > minutes, first quoting the lady's letter, which is dated Mav 11th, 1893, and written from her home, 263, System .Street, Leices-
" For many years," she says, " I suffere'l from indigestion an 1 weakness. Aftei meals I had a great p ii.; at my ehe.;t. Every few days I had an attack of sick hj. adache, and had to be constantly lying down on tin con hj ; [ strained and heaved a good deal, aad spat tip a sour nauseous flui . As time went oti 1 got very weak and nervous, and COuid'nt bear the least noise. " I look all sorts of medicines and consuited doctors, hut nothing did me much good. Later on I came to hear of Mo her .Seig■ l's Curative Syrap, and after taking ii a shirt time the disease left me, and I was able [i relish ami digest my food. Owing to the virtue of this remedy 1 now keep in good health. (Signed) Elizibeth Allen." Ai.d here is Mt VV. Nash, who says: " For fully ten years I Stiff red from poodle attacks of b.lliousness. At times a severe headache, pr ceiled by excessive drowsiness ; at other times vomiting, and retching for a whole day ; at, other limes sleeplessness, pa in in the chest, su'.c, and stomach, coated tongue and had breath— tha'. was the way it aetad with me. I grew very melancholy, and was not able to follow my business. 1 consulted doctors and used tonics, etc,, but th y only ma le me worse. " 1 had c.install ly heard of your wonderful remedy. Mother Seigel's Syrup, but didn't believe in it. Then I rad in Wit and isdom of a case like mine that the Syrup had cured ; so I tried it, and tle lir.st bottle ,cted like m .gic Ttie'paius left me the first week, I repeated my food no mor , and in a month all my iIU were gone. Bless Mother Seigel for ever, I say. -Yours gratefully, (Signed) \V. Nash, 331, Cos'w U Road, E.G., London, October 2nd, 1893 V' Now, where is there room enough on paper to sufficiently praise a in diciue that will do what tnis one did f r thest two good friends of ours '! All pain, remember, is nervous pain, and in the above case it was the foul and inflamed stomach which, by stopping digestion, starved the nerves and made their e.y out. What won't cry out when it is starved ? B bies will, men w 11, women will, nerves w 11.
Mother Siigel's medicine set the stomach in order an I give the nerves some food. Then wh.t? Why. quiet, comfort, strength, rest, <nj .y.nent. " Bless Mother Seig 1," indeed.
