HE INVESTED O NLY 7/6.

There is a man who has spent th'o past twenty,; years of .'bis life exploring for gold and other minerals in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, and New Zealand.' Ho has no doubt picked up some money, yet he says thai . the investment of 7/6 brought him in bigger returns than any other ho ever made. . t < Yet, hold on a'minute. Don!t let Us jump to the conclusion , that we <*aa all . get rich out of the proceeds of 7/6 till -we ; hear further from this financier. He naa' a humorous way of "nutting a .serious " thing, for which we should like him all the more. Some folk have no idea thai sound sense and genuine fun aro tvrin - brothers, but they are all tht same. > " " Our friend's name is Willian Bromflold Peck, and he lives at Russell,, New Zealand, a long way off. Hi saysi^is*lovely country and intends to stay iij.il the balmce of his day*. As he landed ' in Australia, from England, in 1866, Jj« f. has 1 been .thero long enough to know . what he is talking about. He advise* . persons of limited means-who would lika . to become small landholders to emigrate to New Zealand. Still ho reminds us that in the «ndtw4 ' must pay for what we get. " Th« calling of a prospector, for iustance," said Mr. Peck, "is full of hard work. t Besides, it entails rough, living such as Bait junk, soddened damper, with tea in bucketful*, One must have the digestive capacity of an ostrich or an anaconda to stand that diet for long. It must therefore to taken as 'proof 'of the good inside my system,"when J_ mention that I actually stood it for nearly twenfcy-flv» years. ''-', !1 ' _; ■ , > J ; ;_ -„, . . "My pumah^i'e6fc' : was delayed,' you e'eo, butit\chdn't fait* M ,last.the climax came; I was' prostrated with agqnizlpg pain in the Btomactf u Wnct-all 'the*' "other aymptioma of 'a. profound -arraogemeni of all the digestive organs. I hod to knock off work and cease all exertion. I was imbued with disgust with all things mundane. I believe that dypepsia is responsible for a large portion of the world's tuU tides ?" - Mr Peck 8 conjecture is exactly parallel with tte fact as set forth' in", the official ■ statistics of all civilised countries. No other disease so demoralises and depresses human nature, -j It attacks the secret strongholds of J the reason and drives people insane ; it stupefies th« sensibilities';' it ' turns men' and women into selfish, uselosSj nuisances ; it impels them to cdtomit crime. " All this in addition to their own desolation and suffering. Yes, Mr Peckife" quite right. But to get back to what Tie says' about himself .-•'" AfHho advice' of a friend— ,Mr W. Williams of this place -I began to taue the far-famed Mother Seigel's Curative Syx^ip. What, result did it have? TUitell'you : ,ll has (ransformedme from a prematurely -did wan into one quite regenerated. " „',! *" \ •'I am a rapid ' eater, and can't break my f elf of the bad habit. 'Hencolraako it aj point to keep, a bpttle by me ,nl--ways an occasional dose when necessary let me' right. ' "I can safely assert that the investment of 7/6 in Mother SeigeVs Curative 'Syrnp was the best I ever made in all my chequered-career. You may depend that I prescribe this medicine to all and sundry people I come in contaot with. Prior to using it I spent pounds at different times, but. only got partial relief. The Syrup seems io make straight for the seat . of the tiioable. Tl pop these linos just to show other sufferers the way out. Thero are any number of respectable person* here wop can attest' the iruth of what I have written.— Respectfully (Signed) ■ Wm. Bromfield Peqk, Bussell, Bay of Islands, New Zealand,; 5 July 2nd, 1892."". We don't call fpr.witnesses. Mr Peck'i tale is frankness ind'tVuth itself, W« hold out our hand in greeting ac.ro*) the sea. Dyspepsia is a 1 living death, and Mother Seigel gives new life. Million! • sing that chorus. ■ ■ But he had betfer eat , slower^ Write again and tell nt you art ' \ doing bo. Friend Peek.
