A Woman From Austria.

Near the village ofZillingdorf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria H;as, an intelligent and industrious woman, whose story of physical suffering an.! final relief as related by herself, is of' in'erest to English women. "I was employed ” he says, in the work of a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a danthly Liming and sickness if the stomach, until! was unable'to retain either cod or drink. I was compelled to take to my .red for several weeks. Getting a lu'tle better from rest and sleep 1 sought to do some work, but was soon taken with a pain in my side, which in a little while seemed to spread over my whole body, mid throbbed in my every limb. Tbis was followed by a cough and shortness of breath, until finally leouid not sew, and I took to try bed for the second, and, as I thought for the last time. My friends told me taat my time had nearly come, and that I could not live longer than v.huj the trees put on their green ouce more. Then I happened to get one of the ScigM Lttmphieta. I read it and my dear mother bought me a bottle of SoigtTs Syrup, which I took exactly according to directions, and I had no taken the whole of it before I felt a great change for ihe better. My last illness began June the 3rd, 1832, and commut'd til! August the 9th, whan I began to take the Syrup. Very soon I could do a iittle light work. The cough left me raid I was no more troubled in breathing. Now x must tell you that the doctors in our disniet diati'ibuctd handbills cautioning people against tbe medicine and telling them rb would do them no good, and many were thereby influenced to destroy the Seigel’ij 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 ent mine for six miles around our district. Peoplo have coma eighteen miles to get me to buy tbe medicine for them, knowirg that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind, I know a woman wno was leokiug like death, and who told them there was no help for her, that she had consulted several doctors, but none could help her. I told her of Seigel’s Syrup, and wrote the nan-e down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the Syrup, and now she is in perfect) health and the people around us are amazed. Tbe medicine has made such progress in our neighbourhood that people say they dont want the doctor any more, but they take tho Syrup. Sufferers from gout who we-e confined to tbeir bed and could hardly move a finger, have been cured by it. There is a girl iu our district who caught a cold by going through some water, and was in bed five years with costiveeess and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch by her The e was not a doctor in the surrounding d'stricts to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, but every one crossed tbemsoives nod said they could not help her. Whe. ever the little bell rang which i 3 rung in out place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, but Seigel’s Syrup and Hit's saved her life, and now she is as healthy as anybody, goes to church,- and can work even in the fields. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out.knowng how many years she had been in bed. To-day she adds her gratitude to mine for God’s mercies and Seigell’s Syrup. Mabia Haas,
