THE BOTTOM PRINCIPLE.
Nothing " merely happens so." Always keep that fact where you can see it. Whatsoever comes to pass has an adequate cause right behind it. I don't say this as though it were a Dew discovery. Not a bit. It is the bottom principle of all knowledge. But we are apt to forget it—that's the point; we forget it, and so have a lot of trouble there's no need to have. Here is Miss Esther Slay, whom we are glad to hear from, and to know. In the matters set forth in her short letter she speaks, not for herself only, but for two-thirds of the Women in England. "In July, 1893," she says, "I had an attack of influenza, which left me in a weak, exhausted condition. I felt languid and tired. Everything was a trouble to me. The good sppetile that is natural to me was gone; and when I did take a little food it gavo me a dreadful pain in the chest. There was also a strange sensation in my stomach. I felt as if I had eaten too much when perhaps I had Karcely eaten anything. "Then, after a time, I begin to have a dry, hacking cough, and to break out in cold, clammy sweats. Not very long afterwards my ankles began to puff up and swell, so that ( ®hen I stood on my feet it was very painful. ' " I .gradually got worse, and worse. The Medicines given me by the doctors Eoemed to have no effect. I lost flosli, like one in consumption, and I feared I should never be any better. "In March, 1893. a gentleman told mo about Mother Seigol's Curative Syrup, and said he believed it would help me. Although I had no faith in it, I sent for the Syrup, and began taking it. One bottle relieved mo, and gave me some appetite. I ate and enjoyed my food as 1 had not done for years. I gained strength every day. I am now as healthy and hearty as I ever Wis in my life, and I owe it to Mother Seigel's oyrup.—(Signed) Esther May, Buckingham Road, Nortlifleet, Kent. September 8, 1893.' In the spring of 1687," writes another correspondent, " my wife got into a low state of health. She complained at first of foaling wed and weary, and could not do her work 85 usual. Her mouth tasted badly; she eouldn t eat; and she had a deal of pain m her chest and back. Later on her legs began to swell, and ®0h the swellings extended to her body, '"'th all this her strength failed more and Siore, until she could just go about the house ® a feeble fashion, and that was aIL No judical treatment did more than to relievo ~'m? u ma y say. for the moment. This was her condition when Mother ojj'gel s Syrup first came under our notice, i 0 read of it in a book that was left at our house. After she had taken the Syrup only a ew days she was decidedly bettor. And, to include, by a faithful use of the medioine mo swelling went down, her appetite came "ack, and she was soon as well and strong as ever. Seeing what the Syrup had done for ®y wife, I began to take it for indigestion and dyspepsia, which had troubled me for years; it completely cured me.—(Signed) J. neath, Orotava House, Alplia Road. CamMidge, Juno 15, 1893." »e were speaking of nothing happening without a cause. The cause of all the sufferlri? ™ 'hese two women was one and the same --indigestion and dyspepsia. Men have it th-K enougl, » but this disease is especially tee-bane of women chronic constipation ~ ono of its worst features. It is the cause ? ®fl all the ills and ailments they suffer , r Om J Let every woman get the book whioh SJ: r ' -Heath speaks of, and learn all about it. 'ey /can thus find out what the first sympwms/ara, and take Mother Seigel's Syrup the y day they appear.
