A CLEAN-CUT INDIVIDUAL OPINION. BOLDLY EXPRESSED.

It is for this reason that an assertion like the following sticks up above the dead level of our stupid talk, and becomes noticeable :—“ When t saw how pale I had grown 1 said to myself, it was because soinething had gone out of my blood.” There I that is a statement -with the seeds of ah idea in it. Suppose wo follow it up by quoting the rest of the letter which contains it.

In December, IS9O, says the writer, " I fell into a poor state of health. I was tired, languid and weary without any apparent cause. My appetite left me, and all food, oven the lightest and simplest kinds, caused me great pain in the chest and stomach. When -I saw how pale I had grown I said to myself it was because something had gone out of my blood. “ Then my sleep was broken, and night after night I scarcely closed my eyes. It wasn’t long before I became so weak and dejected that I took no interest in things around me. I was so nervous that common sounds annoyed and worried me ; even the noises made by my own children in their talk and at their play. “ There was a disgusting taste in my mouth i it made me sick, and often gave mo a shivering sensation all over. When I saw others eating and enjoying their meals J felt as though it were a strange tiling j in a way I wondered how they could do it. Tor myself I could eat hardly anything. Tood went against me, and X tinned away from it, as one turns from smells or sights that are offensive. And yet I knew, what everyone knows, that without sufficient food the body languishes and weakens. And such was the case with mo as month after month went by.

“ During all this time, so full of pain and discouragement, I was attended by a doctor who did what ho could to relieve me, but without success. Ido not say he did not understand my complaint; for may be not have understood it without having tho means of curing it f ” Tho answer to the lady’s question is: Yes, easily enough. All intelligent, studious doctors “ understand ” consumption, cholera, cancer. &e., without (as yet) having the means of curing them. There is usually a wide gap between tho discovery of a want and the way to supply it.

“ I will now,” continues the letter, “ tell you how I came to bo cured. In April, 1891, I read a small book or pamphlet about Mother Seigol’s Syrup. The hook said the Syrup was a certain remedy for all diseases of tho stomach, indigestion in every form, and dyspepsia; and it also said that most of the complaints we suffer from are caused by that. On looking over the symptoms described in the book, and comparing thorn with my own, I saw plainly that my ailment was dyspepsia. “We sent immediately for a bottle of this medicine, and after taking it a few days I began to feel better. In a very short time, by keeping on with the Syrup according to tho directions, I could eat without pain or distress, and digest my food. I also slept soundly and naturally. Then my strength came back and with it the colour to my face. In short, after a few weeks’ use of Mother SeigeTs Syrup, I was hearty and strong as over. And I should be indeed ungrateful if I were not willing that others should have the benefit of my experience. You are, therefore, tree to print my letter if you think it will be useful. (Signed) (Mrs) M. Truran, Marten, Lincoln, April 24, 1895.” I simply desire to say to Mrs Truran that her idea about the blood is a perfectly correct one. All our food (the digestible part of it) is turned into blood, and in that shape it feeds the entire body. When the blood gets thin and poor (lacking in nourishment), we lose flesh and grow feeble and pale. And the cause of the blood getting thin and poor is indigestion, or dyspepsia. How easy this is to understand when once yon get hold of the right end of it. Mother SeigeTs Syrup has the peculiar power to correct what is wrong about the digestion, and thus enables the digestive machinery Ito make good rich blood, which is life and health and beauty.
