SUMMER WEARINESS.
Why is it that to so many people tho warm summer months mean discomfort and even misery? They are happy and apparently healthy enough when the weather is cool and bracing, but when the warm, humid days of summer come round they are irritable and depressed, and seera altogether lacking in energy and vitality. Why is it? In tens of thousands of cases it is simply a matter of digestion. The stomach, liver, and bowels are apt to become sluggish and lazy in hot weather, and when they shirk work the whole system suffers as a natural consequence. Headaches, languor, and loss of energy are traceable in countless instances to faulty action of these important organs, and all that is needed to restore them 'to natural activity and efficiency ie the gentle_ [stimulating and regulating action of a digestive tonic and corrective, such as Mother Seigel'« Syrup. If you are feeling limp and listless, and lack the energy and vitality which should be yours, try the effect of taking from 20 to 30 drops of Mother Seigel's Syrup in a little water after each meal, and note the difference it makes in your physical condition and enjoyment of life. Mrs Amelia Payne, 2 Berkley place, Carlton, Vic, writing on September 7, 1916, says: "Three years ago I felt myself becoming very far from well. Aches and pains set in all over my body, and I tired quickly and felt listless, jaded, and depressed. Besides tho body _ pains, I suffered most severely from sick headaches, and became very constipated. J dosed myself freely vnth medicine, but gained very little relief from it; in fact, it sometimes appeared to aggravate and intensify tho terrible pains. I often felt discouraged and the reserve of cheerful, and when in one of these dismal moods I carelessly picked up one of Mother _ Seigel's books, and in glancing through it came acros3 the detaib of a case which might have been my very own. Next morning I obtained a bottle, and found it to be all the book had claimed for it. It eased the pains, promoted my appetite, improved my digestion, broke up the constipation, and efficiently regulated and toned up my whole syeteim _ Mother Seigel's Syrup is a splendid medicine, and I am sure that a, little taken now and then will be my best safeguard against any repetition of my former troubles."
