OFTEN TIRED BUT NEVER WEARY. Let’s discuss this point for two minutes. Here’s a man who says that at a certain period he began to feel ‘‘tired and weary.” That’s precisely the way he puts it in his letter. Now anybody has a right to feel tired or fatigued (it’s the same thing), after labour or much exercise. It’s the body’s fashion of telling you to hold up, to give it a I’est. It is a natural and, in health, with supper and sleep just ahead, a pleasant feeling. But weariness I—that’s different. That comes of monotony, of waiting, of lonliness. Weariness is of the mind not of the body. But it can arise in the body, all the same. If this bothers you at first, don’t say, “Stuff!” “humbug!” but study up on it. A man may be tired and happy, but not weary and happy. For Weariness means depressed spirits, and nerves all sagged down in the middle. And when yon get both at once you will be wise to find out what’s gone wrong. It is a short letter, this is, and we can just as well quote the whole of it. The writer says “It was in November, 1887, when I began to feel tired and weary. It seemed as if I had no strength left in me. Before that I had always been strong and healthy. My appetite was p or, and for days together I could not touch any food that was placed before me. After every meal that I did succeed in forcing down I had such dreadful pains in the chest and back that I was almost afraid to eat. Then there was a sharp pain around the heart v to©, as though I was stabbed with a knife. “ I lost a deal of sleep, and for nights together I didn’t sleep at all. Then I began to lose flesh rapidly, and was afraid I was going into a consumption. Yet I kept on with my work, however, but it was a hard thing for me, because I was so weak and nervous that I trembled from head to foot. As time went on I gradually got worse and worse, and my eyas were sunken and drawn in. I consulted a doctor in Kentish Town, He gave me medicine, but it did no good. After all this I got the idea into my head that I should not recover. “ One day a lady came into the shop, and noticing the stale I was in, kindly asked how long I had been ill. I told her all about it, and she said, ‘ You try Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup ; it has made me well, and I believe it will do you good.’ “ I sent for a bottle, and after taking a few doses I felt relieved. Presently ray food agreed with me, and I enjoyed my meals. I could sleep better also, and by keeping on taking the Syrup I soon got a i strong as I ever was in my life. Since that time (now over four years ago) I have been in the best of health. I consider that in all probability this remedy saved my life; at all events, it restored my health, and life without health don’t amount to much. I gladly consent to the publication of this statement, and will answer enquiries. Yours truly (Signed), G. Vince, 142 Shepherd’s Bush Road, London, W., November, 30th, 1892.” Thus Mr Vine’s unfortunate experience comes to a h>».y end. As he has to work for a living, of us, he is no doubt often tired, but never weary any more. And what ean possibly be more wearisome than long-continued illness ? With him, as with millions, it was the stomach that was in fault. His food entered the stomach and stopped there. So ho suffered from two bad results: he received no strength from it, but he did receive the deadly acids and gases which the fermented stuff gave birth to. Indigestion and dyspepsia. The same old story of pain and misery, and, thank mercy, the same story of restoration and gratitude after an appeal for help had been made to i good old other Seigel.
