MANY people believe that nature has somewhere a remedy for every disease.
many and so terrible are the ills of life, nd so slight the pleasure we get as time flies past, that such a belief is the least faith we can show in a gracious and all-wise Provi ienee. A few remedies —but, alas, how few !—have been found. Others, so far, lie hidden from human inquiry. Occasionally death follows quickly on the heels of the evil—an illustration of the dangerous character of the ailment to be relieved.
For example, Nervous Dyspepsia is a comparatively new disease, growing out of -the conditions of modern life. It is a joint affeotion of the digestive organs and cf the nervous system. These two were formerly treated as separate ailments, and it was left for the clear-sighted thinkers to prove that the basis of this terrible and often fatal complication lies chiefly in the disordered and depraved functions of digestion andnutrition. They reasoned thus : ‘lf we can induce the stomach to do its work, and stimulate the excretive organs to drive out of the body the poisonous waste matters which remains after the life-giving elements of the food have been absorbed, we shall have conquered Nervous Dyspepsia and Nervous Exhaustion.’ And they were right. Knowing the infallible powers of Siegel’s Syrup in less complicated though similar diseases, they resolved to test it fully in this. To leave no ground for doubt, they prescribed the remedy in hundreds of cases which had been pronouneed inourahle—with perfect success in every instance where their directions as to livffig and diet were scrupulously followed. Nervous Dyspepsia and Exhaustion may almost be called a peculiarly English disease. To a greater or less extent half the pet pie of this country suffer from it—both sexes ana all ages. In no country in the world are there ; so many insane asylums filled to overflowing, all resulting from this alarming disease. Its leading symptoms are these ; frequent or continual headache : a dull pain at the base of the brain ; bad breath ; nauseous eructations; the rising of sour and pungent fluids to the throat; a sense of oppression and faintness at the pit of the stomach, flatulence; wakefulness and loss of sleep : disgust with food even when weak from the need of it; sticky and slimy matter on the teeth or in the mouth, especially on rising in the morning; furred and coated tongue; dull eyes ; cold hands and feet; constipation; dry or rough skin ; inability to fix the mind on any labor or calling requiring continuous attention ; and oppressive and sad forbodings and fears. All this terrible group Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup removes by its positive, powerful, direct, yet painless and gentle action upon the functions of digestion and assimilation. Those elements of the food that build up and strengthen the system are sent upon their mission, while all waste matters (the ashes of life’s fire) which, unremoved poison and kill, are expelled from the body through the bowels, kidneys, and skin. The weak and prostrated nerves are quieted, toned, and fed by the purified blood. As tbO' result, health, with its, enjoyments, blessings, and power, returns to the sufferer, who had abandoned all hope of ever seeing £ nother well day. Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup is for sale by all chemists and medicine vendors, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, *■s, Farringdon Road, London,
