WHY PEOPLE WRITE BUCKS.

Do you know that there are only four reasons why people write what you read in books, magazines, or newspapers? Milton spent the best years of his life writing "Paradise Lost," for which he only got £15. He, like many more people, wrote only for fame. A great many people, of course, write for money; and some write because they have cacoethes scribendi, which means "an itching for scribbling." But there are people who do not write for fame, or money, or because they can't help it. They write — and all honour to them — to be of use to others!

Here is a gentleman who has written to us, simply and. solely because he has been cured of severe indigestion and liver trouble, by Mother Seigel's Syrup, and he wants others "to profit by his experience. If you have any stomach or liver disorder, Mr. Charles L. Lowe's story will be useful to you. Writing from 10, Haye's Buildings, Elizabeth Street, Brisbane, Queensland, July Ist, 1909, Mr, Lowe says :— "Nearly four years back, I becamo very ill indeed from indigestion. For two years I suffered intense pain after eating, and could retain but little of any food on my stohach. I was drowsy and sleepy in the daytime, and restless and wakeful at night.

"I had a disagreeable taste in my mouth, acute pains between the shoulder blades, and a horrible sense of leaden weight at my chest. I tried scores of different medicines, but slight temporary relief was all I obtained, from even . the best of them. As time went on, and there was no improvement in my health, I became very disheartened, and dejected in spirits. All I seemed to have to look forward to was a life of continual pain and suffering." Fain and suffering is the common lot of all who have stomach and liver troubles, for these, disorders are the fruitful cause of headaches, biliousness, constipation, languor, brain fag, sleeplessness, low spirits. No wonder Mr. Lowe was disheartened, for he could neither work well nor sleep well while he was in the grip of indigestion. ■

"Then," says Mr. Lowe, finally, "about eighteen months back, a fellow worker induced me to try Mother Seigel's Syrup, and within a fortnight I felt a different man. Appetite and strength returned; I was lively and cheerful through the day, and I slept well at night. By the time I had taken four bottles of Mother Seigel's Syrup I was completely cured and I have remained well ever since."

The facts are very plain. Mr. Lowe suffered because his stomach and liver were out of order, and, therefore, he could eat little, -and that little he could not digest. Mother Seigel's Syrup restored his digestive # system to working order, because it is mads of medicinal extracts of roots, barks, and leaves which tone, strengthen, and stimulate the stomach, liver and bowels. In this way the Syrup enabled Mr. Lowe to 1 eat and digest his food; and well digested food gave him health and strength. If you suffer as Mr. Lowe did, Mother Seigel's Syrup will restore sound digestion, and therfore sound health, to you!
