SEIGEL’S SYRUP. TEE BANEFUL OF THINGS WE KNOW. Several, years ago aa American humorist and poet published some verses called “Little Breeches." This was an oddname given to a very email boy who was caught out in a tremendous snowstorm, and finally found in some hay quite a distance from the house. How ever the boy, got there bothered everybody to explain. It was certain he never could.have walked. So his father said the angels must have done it; “they just stooped down and toted him to where it was safe and warm," ha said. The poetry about it (supposed to have been written by the youngster's father) starts off in this way ; I don’t go much on religion, I never ain’t had.no show; But I’ve a middling tight grip, sir. On the handful of things I know. That’s it; the handful of things we Mow. There aren’t many of ’em, but there are a few. And one of them is this : That for a hundred results there is only one cause. Nature develops and makes differ* ences; never a new force. Here, for example, is an incident which shows our meaning. About Christmas, 1889, Mr E. B. Wright had an attack of influenza. Previous to this he had always been strong and hearty. Well, he got over the influenza; still, it had given him (ha he says) “a shake.” After this he got along fairly well, until February ,of this year (1892) when the influenza attacked him again. This time the malady “meant business.” Nearly every bone and muscle in bis body acbed like sore teeth. His akin was hot and dry, and to bed he was obliged to go. For sixteen days he was under a. doctor. At the end of that time he found himself alive and that was about all you could say for him. luhis letter he goes on to tell what happened next. “ I had a foul taste in the mouth,” he says, “ and my teeth and tongue were covered with a thick slimy phlegm. My wife says my tongue was like an oyster shell, and I’m sura it was rough as a nutmeg grater. ! What I ate, which wasn’t much, gave me pain in the cheat and sides. After a mouthful or two 1 felt full and blown out, and I used to swefl-to a great size. By-and-by a hacking cough satin and my breathing got short and ?iuick. At night I lay for hours gasping or breath, and often coughed so I was afraid I should burst a blood vessel. I got weaker and weaker and was lihefa i broken-minded horse. The doctor said St 1 was asthma, but he wasn’t able to relief* it. Although I live only two minutfes’ walk from the factory where I work,! had tojstop and rest on my Way many a time.. “Thus matters went with me until June, 1892. Then one day 1 took up the Essex Newsman, and read of a man living at Eareham, near Bungay, having been cured by Mother Seigel’e Curative Syrup. I got someof this medicine from the Liter* national Tea Company, Braintree* After, a few doses my breathing grew easier, and by keeping on with the Syrup my food soon digested, the cough left me, anil I gained strength. lam now as strong.aa, ever, can eat anything, and walk for milcu, - I am . a bruehmaker, and work at the factory of Messrs John West and Sone* | High Street, Braintree, and have lived in this town over forty years. (Signed) E.BJ Weight, Sandpit Road, Braintree, Essex* August 23rd, 1892.” Now let us see how this illustrates the '©position we started out with. For _alost three years Mr Wright was ill with. bat seemed like a series of different Besses. Ha had the influenza twice, ie asthma once, and another disease bioh he gives no name to—-even if he cognised it. Look for a moment at the iriety and incongruity of the pains and cables he mentions, and ho doesn’t jseribe them all, either. You would ncy he had half-a-dozen ailments _at ast. Yet ■he had but one—indigestipn id dyspepsia—of which' all his' bodily sturbanoea (influenza included—a blood sesse) were symptoms. All came out of ie stomach, and when Saigel’s Syrujiv t that right the others quietly de*® irted. -r iff What, then, is one thing ot ,“ the,, hand* ■ lof things we know ?” Answer : That 1 sarly all sorts of diseases are really ■xnptoms of indigestion sand dyspepsia, td that Mother Seigel’a Curative Syrup ■es it. 30 AW* _ . a louble that fact up, in. your fist and hold on to it tight.
