♦ —' " Ww tb«f mm strikrune J *luili be washed an-aii and drowned!" , , So cried a sailor, clinging to a half-sunken wreck, ■ nshes.w a tremendous sea rolling awards him. Yet he lived Co t.-ll the tale safe on -hore " Before W* time next wee!; I *haU, he dead! So said a woman in the tune of great fear. Yet she also lived-and still lives-tu uxpiain her situation. , , . Here is her story, told in her own words and in her own way. She savs-:"One day in September 18S7. 1 stood nt the top of a fligbt of H;e, wi steps, about to go down. Suddenly I was taken with a giddy sensation. Everything seenvd to swim around me and I fell. I rolled to the bottom of the steps and was picked up insensible, with a broken aim The doctor recommended r-st and <rnietm-ss. In a few davs I was lietter, but still felc the shock to mv nervous system. " then many bad symptoms appear*!. I had an uncomfortable feeling all over me which I cannot describe. I couldn't eat; my appetite was gone. There was a foul taste in mv mouth; pains Hi the sides, back, and cbest; coated tongue and a sense of weakness and distress ill the stomach. I felt low and melancholy, and had anxieties and fears 1 could not tra-e to any particular cause. The doctor who attended me for some mouths said it was nervous debility, brought about by the shock. I got worse instead of Letter, and went to the London Hospital. Whitechapel Road, where I was an out-patient for several monthts, bit kept vetting worse. They said I was suff, ring «ith shock, liver conges'ion, and debility. 1 was then sent to the Convalescent Home, where they treated me for fourteen davs, anp did little or n> good. In a short time I t>egan to despair, and my husband and others who came to see me thowjht I wan doomed. Thus I went on from month to month, expecting each week would he mv hist. Asnin and again I whispered solemnly to my«elf, ' Before this time Inext week I shall be dead !' " I took no further interest in anything pertaining to this world ; but, thank God ! 1 have a good husband and a good home. My husband carried me from my bed every day, and placed me in the chair sofa, and tried to cheer me up and persua.ie me I would get better. But since I have really got well, he tells me he never in his heart believed his own w orris " My sister, too, came frequently to see me, and did all she could to ease my sufferings; but being unable to resist what her own eyes showed her, she often said , ' You will never (jet better, Caroline. ' " But who likes to read accounts of the troubles and sorrows of others ? so much do each and all of us have our own t> bear. I crave your attention only for a few words more. "I went on in this way—like one who stands on the crumbling edge of an open grave—until February, IS9O, when a little hook was left at my shop which told of the lemarkahle cures wrought by Mother Seigel's Curative S> rup. The narrative of the Policeman of Holyhead greatly impressed me. I said to my husband, ' The complaint that policeman suffered from is my complaint. The remedy that cured him may cure me.' "I sent at once over to Messrs. Lacy and Co., the Chemists, Whitechapel Road, for a bottle. It did me good. I could eat; but, better still, the food digested. B.fore this, when 1 swallowed a mouthful of solid food it seemed to turn to wind or sour acid ami gas, and gave me such pain I fancied I hail heart disease. "1 peiseveied with the medicine, and after taking six bottles I never felt ho well in my life. I can now eat as heartily as any one, and am never distressed after taking food. In fact. I can now eat a jolly '.W-d dinner, and I leave y.>u to imagiue what; a treat that is after beiti" bad so long. " My hnshand and relatives, as well as my neighbours, are all of my opinion—that Mother Seigel's Syrup saved my life. " "(Signed) Mrs Cahloink Sage, wife of Mr. Henry Sage, Basket Maker and Stationer. 200, Whitechapel Road, L union, E. " One point only in Mrs Sage.s statement needs a word of explanation. The fall downstairs, in which her iljness apparently began, was in fact the rtsult of the malady, which had for some time been undermining her nervous system—namely, indigestion and dyspepsia, and the A ldiness which occasioned the fall was merely one of its symptoms.
