But it always means that the sources of str—gth are failing, as tha lessening of the water in a river means a drying up of the springs and streams which] fed {it. : I said " sources " of strength, using the plural word. I should have said "source " of strength, for. in homan beings there is but one. What is it ? Perhaps the experience of Mr David' Jones will help us to an answer. *
the summer of 7881, says, " I began to feel ill and out of sorts. I was weak and tired, and quite worn out with little exertion. I had a poer appetite, and after eating bad pain and weight at the chest' My secretions ware scanty and thick. My back felt stiff, and gave me much pain as I muved about. For three years 1 suffered like this, being at times batter and then worse. I consulted a doctor, who gave me medicines and recommended Turkish baths ; but I got no better Tor any kind of treatment.
"My brother then told me about Mother Seigei's Curative Syrup, but I had no faith in advertised medicines. He, however, urged me to take it, and after taking a few doses I experienced so much relief that I continued with it, and was soon strong and well as ever. Since that time I talte a dose of this remedy when I feel at all ailing, and it aets me right. I hare praised Mother Seigei's Syrup to all my friends, many of whom have tried it and been benefited by it. You can publish this statement as yon like. (Sigued) David Jones, 1, Duuluce Street, Walton, Liverpool, July 31st 1896." We hare room for one more short letter before we try to come at the answer to the question with which we set out. It is exactly in the same line, and ought to maUe tbe resulta of our inquiry all the more clear and plain. £T"ln the spring of 1888, " proceeds the Hvriter, " my health began to fail me. I felt languid heavy, as if something had come over me. I had a bad taste in my mouth, my appetite was poor, and the little food I took gave me pain across the chest and between the shoulders. My food lay like lead on my stomach. I was constantly spitting up a thick phlegm, and when in bed heavy sweats came over me. I got weaker and weaker, and from time to time was confined to the bed. Often I was so bad I could not dress or undress myself. "Now better, now worse, but never well, I suffered for over five years. I took different kinds of medicines, and had a doctor, but got no real benefit from anything' *'lo July, 1893, a book was left at my house in which 1 read of cases like miue having been) cured by Mother Seigei's Syrup. I got a bottle from the International Tea Company, Yeovil, and began taking it. In a short time I felt much benefit, aud, by continuing with it gained strength. I could eat better, food agreed with me and by-and-by I was strong and vvll. But for Mother Seigei's Syrup I believe I should not now b« alive. You are at liberty to publish this statement. (Signed) (Mrs) Jane Crouch, 82, Huish, Yeovil, November 29th, 1895." What, then, do the cases show to be this source oj strength ? The answer is Digested Food. That aud nothing else. All strenth, of body or of mind, comes from that, and that only. What, then, is the great enemy of strength, the fountain of weakness ? Indigestion—dyspepsia. You see why and bow. A child could not miss the argument. What, then, restores strength ? Mother Seigei's Syrup, In what way ? By setting the digestive machinery in healthy operation. That is what it did for our correspondents and does daily for multitudes. Use it if you need it, and pass the news to other weak ones.
