AN INTERESTING LETTER FROM A VETERAN.

As this is Jubilee year it tends to make one look back and think of the flight ot iime. and in this way I am reminded that I im one of the veterans in the sale of your valuable and successful medicine. I have sold it from the very first, and have sent it to every country in England and many partg of Scotland. Well I do remember the first circular you sent out some nine or ten years sgo. You had come to England from America to introduce Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, and I was struck by a paragraph in which you used these words:— "Being a stranger in a strange land, I do not wish the people to feel that I want to take the least advantage over them I feel that I have a remedy that will cure disease, and I have so much confidence in it that I authorise my agents to refund the moni>y if people should say that they had not benefited by its use. " I felt at once that you would never say that unless the medicine had merit, and I applied for the agency, a step which I now look back upon with pride and satisfaction. Kver since that time I have found it by far the best remedy for Indigestion and Dyspepsia I have met with, and I have sold thousands of bottles. It has never failed where there were any of the following symptoms: — Nervous or sick headache, sourness of the stomach, rising of food after eating, a aen«e of fulneas and heaviness, dizziness, baH breath, slime and mucus on the gum and teeth, con, stipation, and yellowness of the eyes and skin, dull and sleepy sensatons, ringi g in the ear" heartburn, loss of appetite, and, in short, wherever there are signs that the systeni|is clogged, and the blood is out of order. UpuD. repeated inquiries, covering a great variety of ailments, my customers have always answered " I am better, " or " I am perfectly well. " What I have seldom or never seen before in the case of medicine is that people tell each other of its v rtues, and those who have been cured say to the suffering: "Go and get Mother .-eigel's Curative Syrup, it will make you well." Out of the hnndreds of cures I will name one or two that happen to come into my mind Two old gentlemen, whose names they would not like me to mention, had been martyrs to Indigestion and Dyspepsia for many years. They had tried all kinds of medicine "without relief. One of them was so bad that he could not bear a glass of ale. Both were advised to use the Syrup and both recovered, and were as hale and hearty as men in the prime of life. A remarkable case in that of a house painter named Jeffries, who lived at PensburstinKent. His business obliged him to eipoßO himself a great deal to wind and weather, and he was seized with rheumatism, and his joints snon swelled up with dropsy, and were very stiff and pninful. Nothing that the doctors could do Beemed to reach tl.e seat of troilble. It so crippled him that he could do hardly any work for the whole of the winter of 1878and'79, he had to give ud and take to his bed. He had been afflicted in this sorry way for three years aud was getting worn out and discouraged, i esides. he had spent over £13 for what he called " doctor's stuff" without the least benefit. In the ■"'prirg he heard of what Mother ■'eigel's Curative Syrup had done for others and bought a 2s. 9d bottle off me. In a few days he sent mo word lie was much better— before he had finished the bottle. He then sent for a 4s fid. botile and fts I was going on that wav I carried it down to him myself On getting down to the house what was my astonishment and surprise to find him out in the gaHen weeding an onion bed. I could hurdly believe my own eyes, and said: — ' You ought not to be out here, man, it may be the deith of you, after being laid up all the winter with rheu-natism and dropsy. " riis relpv was : — Tbers is no danger. The weather is fine, and Mother Seigel's Curative *yrup has done for me in a few days what the doctors could not do in three years. I th'nk I shall get well now." He kept on with the Syrup, and in three weeks ho was at work again, and has had no return of the trouble for now nearly ten years. Any medicine that can do this should be known all over the world. Tours faithfully, (Signed) B * pert GRAnAii, Of Graham <fe Sok. Holloway House, Sunbury, Middlesex, June 25th, 1887. The above wonderful cure of Rheumatism was the result of the remarkable power of Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup to cleanse the blood f.f the poisonous humours that arise from Indegistion and Dyspen.'ia. Mother Seigel's Curative is for sale by all chemists and medicine vendors, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, 35, Farringdon Boad, London, England.
