A CLEAN-CUT INDIVIDUAL OPINION, BOLDLY EXPRESSED.

It is for this reason that an assertion like 'the following 'stick* up above the dead level of onr stupid talk, aud bsoomes noticeable : " When I saw how paleljiad yrov>n I said to mj^\lfit was lecause somtthiny had gone out of my blood". There ! that is a Btatement with the seeds -of an idea in it. Suppose we follow it up by quoting the rest of the letter -nhioh contains rfe. " In December 1890," says tho-writer, "I fell into ■& 'poor state di health. I was tired, lftnguiS, :and wefery without any 'apparent came. My ' B'PjHitite left 'me, aiuVall food, even the liflhtmßfc aud fitmjilebt jriudd, cfcii-ud me great "pain an the uhest and Btomaoh. WJaenl Baw;how ; pile I had grown I Buid to myself it yas because somrthitig had gone oat of my blood. " Then my sleep was broken, and night after night I soarcely olosed my eyes. It wasn't long before 1 became so weak and dejeoted that I took no interest in things'around me. I was ao nervous that comm-Jii boukcls 'annoyed and worded me ; even the nuises made "bymy own children in their t»lk and ab their play. " There was a disgustiug taste in mymoutb. ; it made me »ielr, and often gave me « shivering sensation , all over. When I saw -others eating and enjojiug their meals I felt »b though it weiM a sttapge thing; in a way I wondered how they could do it. For myself I could eat hardly anything. Food went against me, and I turned a-.v,\y from it .us one turns fcom smells or sights that are o'ff'jimive. And yet I knew, what everyone knows, that without sufficients food the body languishes and weakens. And such was the case with me as month after month wenthy. " Duriogalhhis time, so full of paiu*nddis.conragfcmoufc, I was alt ended by* doctor, who ■cid what ha could to relieve m«, bra without suocfss. Ido not say he. did nat understand jay complaint ; f or«niay he not have understood it without having the means of curing it P " The answer to the lady's question is : Yes, easily enough. All intelligent, studious doctors "understand" oarmuinption, cholera, csreer, ten,, without (asyot) having the means of coring them. Thero m usually a *wide gap [ betf?centtte diccrvery of a want and the way to supply it. ! '" I will now," continues the letter, " tell you how 1 came to be oured. In April 1891 1 read in a small book or pamphlet about Mother Sei^tl's Syrup. The book aaid tbe Syrup was a | .certain remedy for all diseases of the Stomach, huMgesHon in every form, and dyspepsia ; .and it al'>u paid Uia'i most of the complaints rre ' suffer from aie caused by that. On looking over the symptoms dtsoribed in the book, and comparing "them with my own, I saw plainly that my ailment was dy*pepaia. '" We flen|t immedut ly for a bottle of fcnis medicine, and after taking it a few days I began to feel better. In h very short time, by fcctpipg on wi'h the Syrup acorfliog to <the direction^ 2 could eat wiUbout pain or distress, and di^ett my food. I alto sle.pt roundly and mtnrally. Then my strength came back, and with it the colour to my face. In short, after a few weeks' uee of Mother Seigel's Syrup I was hearty and strong as ever. And I should be indeed ungrateful if I were nob willing that others sh' uldtiave the benefit of my experience. Yon are therefore free to print my latter It you think it will be ussfnl. (Signed) (Mrs) IS. Tiurao, Marton, lAacoln, April 2*, 1895." I -simply desire to say to Mrs Traran that her idea abjut the blood is a perfectly correot one. All our food (the digestible part of it) is turned into blo'^d, and in that shape it feeds the entire body. When the blood geN thin and poor (lacking in nourishment), we lose fl^sh and ( grow )eeblo aud pa'e. And t'ho cause of the blood geUing thin and poor is indigestion, or dyspepsia. How euy this is to understand when once you get hold of the right end of it. Mother SeigeFs Syrup has the peculiar power to correct what is wrong about the digestion, *nd tiro* enables the digestive machinery to make good, rich blood — which is life and health and beauty.
