ONE TASTE IS ENOUGH

The writer never had a taste of rheumatism but once —about four years ago it was—and it laid me up and made me .groan for six weeks. And lam not praying for any more. I can get a heart, load now, just by thinking hew it leir. But, oh, what a lot of folk catch it worse than. I did. Here is Mrs Annie Hill, she is one of them. Or rather she was; she is right enough in these days. Her idea of talking of it is to cheer some other sufferer, and show him the way out. And we t nan is: her for that. It’s the proper feeling to have towards our fellow* - travellers through this vale of tears—and pair*-. “Some eight or ten years ago,” sayw Mrs Hill, “I was a perfect martyr to rheumatism, indigestion. As if they vr>u not enough for one poor woman to bea», I often had frightful pains in ,he chest, with weakness all over my body. . It was awful, and I didn’t know what the end of it was going to be. Now and then I was completely prostrate. “Wo hunted everywhere for a cure, and I tried medicines, until the empty bottles, in the house rattled wherever you put your hand out; all to no earthly good. We spent money and spoiled hopes, and that’s the story. “At last. I saw an advertisement of how Mother Seigel’s Syrup had cured a ,man of rheumatism and other ailments — just- like mine. He told the tale himself, as X am telling this.* I will try it—so I said to myself. ; “It acted splendidly, and I kept on with it until I was entirely- well. -It cured ray rheumatism, my indigestion, and my liver complaint—ail in a bunch. Sometimes I bought the Syrup by ; the half dozen in order to get it a little cheaj>er. “I am an old resident of this district, having lived here for tllb last fifty years. I am now seventy-five and in good health. ,1 am known far and wide, my husband and sons being in the farming and dairy industries on a fairly large scale. lam never without a bottle of Mother Seigel’s:- Syrup’ in 5 the house. There are plenty of medicines in Australia," goodness knows,* almost' as thick as the rabbits used to be, but hone, so far as I know, to compare with Mother Seigel’s Syrup.” —Mrs Annie Hill, Kayuga, near' Muswellbrook, N.S.W., Sept., 2 1st.;, 1899. Witness, A Halpin“l have known Mrs Hill for eight years. Her testimony to the virtues of Mother SeigePs Syrup can be implicitly relfed 1 . upon r She is .altogether incapable of making any statement that will not stand the closest Investigation.” C. J. Spratt, Auctioneer for the Farmers’ Association.
