A WOMAN'S SUFFERINGS AND GRATITUDE.

A TOIOB FBOM AU3TBIA. Near the village of Ziliingdorf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent and industrious woman, whose story of physical suffering and final relief, as related by herself, ii of interest to English women. " I was employed," she Bays, "in the work of a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on flick Headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, witil 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 to do some work, but was soon taken with ft p*in in my side, which in a little while seemed to spread over my whole body, and throbbed in my every limb. This was followed by a oough and shortness of breath, until finally I oould not sew, and I took to my bed for the second, and, as I thought, for the laßt time, My friends told me that my time had nearly oomo, arid that I oould not live longer than when the trees put on their green once more. Then I happened to get one of the Suigel pamphlets. I read it, and my dear mother bought me a bottle of Beigel's Syrup, which I took exactly according to the directions, and I had not taken the whole of it before I felt a great ohsnge for the bettor. My last illness began June 3m, 1882, and continued to August 9th, when 1 began to take the Syrup Very soon 1 oould do & little light work The oough left me, and I was no more troubled in breathing. Now I am perfeotly aured. And oh, how happy lam ! I cannot express gratitude enough for Seigel's Syrup. Now I must cell you thmt the doctors in our district distributed handbills oautioning people against the medicine, telling them it would do them no good, and many were thereby influenced, to destroy the Seigel pamphlets ; but now, wherevpr one is to be found, 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 oured me, and to be sure to get the right kind. I know a woman who was looking like death, and who told tbem there was no help for her, that sha had oonsuUed several doctors, but none oould help her. I told her ot Seigel's Syrup, and wrote the name down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the Byrup, and now she is in perfect health, and the people around us are amazed. The medicine has made such progress in our neighborhood 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. There is a girl in our distriot who oaught a eold by going through some water, and was in bed five years with oostiveness and rheumatio pains, and had to have an attendant to watoh her. There was not a dootor in the surrounding distriot to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her ohild, but every one crossed themselves and said they could not help her. Whenever the little bell rang, which is rung in our place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, but Seigel's Syrup and PilJs saved her life, and now she is as healthy as anybody, goes to church, and caa work even in the fields. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out, knowing how many years she had been in bed. To-day she adds her gratitude to mine for God's mercies and Seigel's Syrup." Mama Haas. The people of England speak confirming the above. AFTBBMAN7 YEABS. " Whittle-le-Woods, near Ohorley, " December 26tb, 1883. " Dear Sir,—Mother Seigel's medicine sellß exceeding well with us, all that try it speak highly in its favor. We had a case of a young lady that had been troubled many year« with pains after eating. She tells us that the pains were entirely taken away after a few doses of your medioine.—Tours truly, " B. Pam."
