WHY AM I SO MISERABLE?

So weak and languid ? Why such heartburns and pains in my stomach, such acidity, and such an unpleasant taste in the mouth ? Why at times such a gnawing appetite, and then again such disrelish for food ? Why is the mind so frequently irritable, desponding, melancholy, and dejected? Why does one often feel und9r the apprehension of some imaginary danger, and start at any unexpected noise, becoming agitated as though some great calamity was impending ? What is the meaning of these dull, sick headaches ; these violent palpitations of the heart, this feverish restlessness, these night sweats; this disturbed and dreamy sleep, which brings no refreshing rest, but only moanings and mutterings, and the horrors of the nightmare ? The answer is : These are but the symptoms of Indigestion or Dyspepsia—the beginning and the forerunner of almoßt every other hnman disease. Indigestion is a weak ness or want of power of the digestive fluids of the stomach to convert the food into healthy matter for the proper nourishment of the body. It is caused most frequently by the irregularity of diet, or improper food, want of healthy exercise and pure outdoor air. It may be induced by mental distress —the shock of some great calamity. It may be, and often is, aggravated and intensified, if not originally brought on, by exhaustion from intense mShtal application, of physical overwork, domestic troubles, anxiety in business, or financial embarrassments. If the stomach could always be kept in order, death would no longer be a subject of fearful anxiety to the young and middle-aged, but what would be contemplated by all as the visit of an expected friend at the close of a peaceful and happy old age. However, the first hostile invader upon the domain of health and happiness is Indigestion. Is there any relief, any remedy, and cure ? That is the question of the suffering and unhappy dyspeptic. What is wanted is a medicine that will thoroughly renovate the stomach, bowels, liver, and kidneys, and afford speedy and effectual assistance to the digestive organs, and restore to the nervous and muscular systems their original energy. Such a medicine is happily at hand. Never in the history of medical discoveries, evidenced by a dozen years’ thorough test, has there been found a remedy for Indigestion so speedy, so sure, and so surprising in its results as Seigel’s Curative Syrup, but to-day it is a standard remedy for that almost uni. versal affliction in every civilized country in Europe, Asia, Africa and America. Public testimonials and private letters from military officers, bankers, merchants, ship captains, mechanics, farmers, and their wives and daughters, alike confirm its curative powers. NEARLY RAISED HIM FROM THE GRAVE. Swiss Cottage, Walton-on-the-Naze, August 27fch, 1886. A. J. White, Limited. Dear Sirs, —lf a testimonial is of any use to you i specting he remarkable cure I have derived by taking your ‘ Seigel’s Syrup,’ you are at liberty to make any public use of this you may deem best. For upwards of twelve years I have suffered from extreme Nervous Debility and Gastric Catarrh, which reduced j»<* «iO that I was totally unable to do any business, and caused great prostration and weakness. About three years ago I had the advice of several members of the medica faculty, and under their treatment derived little or no good. Being in town some ten months ago, I was advised to try your Curative Syrup, and purchased a bottle. I had not taken many doses before I began to feel a fresh man. I could walk with ease, while before I had hard work to carry one leg before the other. My strength gradually in creased and my eyesight got better, which before I frequently lost, owing to the malady arisihg from a sluggish liver, often in- bed for several days with piles, and could hardly move. lam thankful to you and to God for nearly raising me from the grave, for it was nothing but your Seigel’s Syrup that has restored me to robust health. Yours faithfully, A. Richold. Revesby, near Boston. December 31st, 1886. A. J. White, Limited. Dear Sir, —Your Seigel’s Syrup I find has an increasing sale in this neighbourhood, and shall always do my best to further the sale of an article that every one that purchases speaks , highly in its favour. I also have great satisfaction in saying that I quite be lieve my wife was permanently cured of Indigestion and Wind on the Stomaek, from which she had suffered intensely Borne time previous to taking it. Faithfully yours, A. Bdbn. Attanagb, Abbeyleix, Queen’s County, Ireland, December 24th, 1886. A, J. White, Limited. Dear Sir, —I hope that your Seigel’s Syrup and Pills may get the sale they so well de serve. I had a very delicate child, a boy now over nine years; but being averse to eating any kind of vegetable or food from his birth, I began giving him Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup, and after a few weeks he re covered so as to be able to consume as much food as other boys of his age, and to the great astonishment of the neighbours, he is lively, getting into flesh and thriving as well as boys of his age do. We give all the credit of his recovery to Seigel’s Syrup. Yours faithfully. S. Maxwell,
