A - WOMAN'S SUFFERINGS AND GRATITUDE.

A VOICE FROM AUSTRIA..;. V. V- . V-. Near the village of Zillingdorf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent, and industrious ' woman, whose story of physical.suffering : and final , relief, as related by herself, is of interest to English women. " I was employed," she says,.; '.in thework of a large .farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick - headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retain either food or drink. I was compelled to take to my bed for several weeks. .Getting a'little better' from rest and quiet, I sought :td' do some WorkV; but was soon taken with a'*pk!n- in, my side, which in a little while Beemed: to spread over my .*. whole body, and throbbed in my ; eyery' limb. , Thf» ■ was followed by a cough and shortness of breath, until finally Icould not sew, and Itbdk to my bed' for the second time, and," as I thought, for the last time. My friends told me that•" my * time bad nearly come, and that I could not live longer than ■ when the trees put on their green once more. Then I happened to get one of • the Seigel pamphlets. I read it, and_ my dear mother bought me a bottle Seigel's Syrup, which 1 % . took. exactly. ' according to'directions, and I had not taken the" whole of it before I felt a great change for the better. My last illness.began June 3rd, 1882, and continued to August 9th, when I began to take the Syrup. Very soon I could do'a little light work..' The cough leftme.andl wasnomoretroubledlnbreathing. Now lam perfectly cured. -And oh, nowhappylaml I " cannot express gratitude enough for: Seigel's Syrup. Now I must tell you that the doctors, in our district distributed handbills cautioning people against the medicine, telling them it would do them ho good, and many were thereby influenced to'destroy the Seigelpamphlets;butnowwhereeyerdne.ißtobefound it is kept like a relic. The few preserved are borrowed to read, and I have lent mine for six miles around our. district. People have come eighteen.miles to get me to buy the.medicine for them, knowing that it . cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind. I know" a woman who was • looking *^ikie death,'' and who told them-, there was.; no" help " for ■ her, that, she had, consulted ,', several : doctors,. hut none could help, her. : I <-vtold.V her .of. Seigel's Syrup, and wrote the. name down for her that she "might make no 'mistake.'.' She" took my advice and the Syrup, and now she is" ih perfect health, and the people us are amazed. The medicine has made such progress in our, neighbour, hood that, people say they don't want the doctor any more, but they take the Syrup." Sufferers from gout who were confined to' their' bed' and ' could hardly move a finger, have been cured by it.;' Thereis a girl in our district • who caught, a cold by going through some water, and'was In bed five year* .with costiveness and. rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to' watch by her. s . There was not' a doctor in the surrounding districts td whom her mother' had not applied • to, relieve '■ her" child, but .everyone crossed themselves'and-.said they, could; not help her. -Whenever.the little bell. rung.which, s rung in .our place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her; hut Seigel's Syrup and Pills saved her life, and now she is as^healtnyar anybody, goes to church, andean workeyeri in th« fields. "Everybody was astonished wheir they saw' her out, knowing how many years she had been in bed. Te-day she adds her. gratitude, to mine for God's mercies and Seigel's Syrup." . ' -'*■'■-■ . The people of England speak confirming the above. :,

THE EFFECTS HAVE BEEN WONDERFUL,

" Ilford Road Dispensary, Dukinfifeld, "May3rd;lßM. "Dear Sir,—l am happy to inform you' that the sale of your Syrup and Pills increases' here continually.

The head of the Universitas Leonina is to be the Jesuit Cardinal MazZella.'■'," Moral Turpitude.—Blame attaches to a jury of intelligent meu when they condemn a man for crime whose moral nature has been" perverted by indigestion, diseased liver and kidneys. A thoughtful judge may well consider whether society would not be better served by ordering a bottle of American Co.'s Hop Bitters, for the unfortunate in.the dock instead of years of penal servitude.
