A WOMAN FROM AUSTRIA
Near the village ofZ Ifingdoef, in Lower Austria, lives Maria H-ias, ,an intelligent and industrious woman, whose story of physical suffering and final relief, as related hyT.erself, is of inter eat to English women. *‘l was employed ” lie says, in the work of a large farmhouse. Overwork hip unlit mi aick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness (f the slornacli, until I was unable to ret,no either ood or d 1 ink. I was compelled to t*ke to my bed for several weeks. Getting a litrle better from rest and 1 sought to do some work, but was soon t'ken with a pain in inr side, which in a littl; while seemed to spread over my wlr°le body, nml throbbed in my every limb. This was followed by & cough and shortnrss’of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to try bed for the second, and, ns I thought, for the last time. My friends toM an that my time had nearly come, asQ . tat I could not lire longer than when. );*53 trees put on their green once mo. j. Then I happened to get one of (he Seigd pamphlets. I read it and my dear mother nought ms a bottle of Weigel's Syrup, which I took exactly according to directions, and I had no t>kenithc whole of it before I felt n great change for the better. My last illness began June the 3rd, 1882, and continued (ill August the 9th, when I began lo take the syrup. Very soon I could do a little light work. The cough left me and I was no more troubled in breathing. Now 1 must tell you (hat the doctors ill' our dia'rict distribuetd handbills cautioning people ag inst the medicine, and telling them it would do them no good, and many ■were thereby influenced to destroy the Stigel’s paphlets ; but now wherever one is to be found it is kekt as a relic. The few preserved are borrowed to read, and I have lent mine for six miles around our dis*rict. People h*vc conro eighteen miles to get me to buy the medicine for them, knowiug that it cured me, and to besure to get the right kind, I know a woman who was leoking like death, and who told them there was no help for her, that she had consu’ted several doctors, but none could help her. I told her of Seigel’s Syrup, and wrote the name down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and 'he Syrup, and now she is in perfect hedth and the people around us are amasied. The medicine Ins made such progress io our neiiilihouihcod ihnt people sty they dont want tire doet< r nny more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who we e confined to their bed and could hardly move a finger, have been cured by it. There is a girl in our district who caught a cold by going through some water, and was in bed fire years with costiveness and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch by her There was not a doctor iu the surrounding districts to whom her mother had no applied to relieve her child, but every one Crossed themselves and said they could not help her. Whenever the litrle bell rang which is rung in our p’ace when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, but Scigel’s Syrup and Pills saved her life, and now sbsis as healthy as anybody, goes to church, and can work oven in the fields. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out. knowing how many years she bad been in bed. To-day she adds her gratitude to mine for G-od’s mercies and Seigel’s Syrup.” Maria Haas. The people of England ipeak confirming the above. AFTER MANY TEAKS. “Whittle-le-Woods, neas Chorley, “ December 26th, 1883, Tear Sir. —Mother Seigel’s medicine sell? exceeding well with us.
