THEY RESENT INTRUSION.

That dear old dog of mine; he is dead long ago. He troubled nobody who passed his post outside the fence. If he was in a mood for a nap,.he would lie in some shady spot, and, with half-closed eyes, take in dreamily what a great English preacher used te call "this whirling world of God's."

But if a stranger opened the gate, evidently meaning to walk up the gravel path to the house, Don Quixote was qui vive in ths rustle of a grass blade. For it was his duty to resent intrusion. The more he violatetd the Gospel precept, the more he hated his neighbour, the more useful he was; the more commendable his conauct m the sight of his rnends.

He is dead, as I said. In pace. He was worth the tears we dropped on the sods that cover him. We loved him for the enemies he made.

You get the lesson, don't you? Things bat are entitled to respect, things that nave any decent claim to exist, will not stand to be imposed upon; they will fight, if necessary, they will kill you. That is why Mrs Margaret Robertson said in her letter, "My stomach rebelled; and whenever I fancied I had an appetite and ventured to satisfy it, the experiences I underwent were fearfully distressing. "I had a sense of fulness in the chest and abdomen, and often a clear, sour fluid, ejected from the stomach, ran from my month before I was able to control it. I used to employ means to make myself sick in order to get rid of the intolerable nausea.

" Other measures for relief having failed, I adopted the suggestion of an acquaintance, and began using Mother Seigel's Syrup. This was about eight years ago. From the first my digestion improved, and when I had taken the remedy for a short time I was in good health. "Not a symptom of disease remained, although I had been a martyr to inflammatory dyspepsia for several years. I have been in business in Melbourne street, N. Adelaide, S.A., for nine years, and this is the 12th of April, 1900. "All who wish corroboration of my written statement can obtain it by calling on me at my store. "I have a word further to say about Seigel's Syrup, and may as well say it now. About four years ago my son developed a kidney derangement, which was pronounced Bright's disease. No medical trsatmsnfc proved of any avail. I believed tbs Syrup would help him, and it did. "He was distinctly better before he had finished the first bottle; then I" stopped the medicine (too soon), and he had a relapse. "I recommenced at once, giving him .the doses regularly after he ate, and in eight weeks he was cured. He was then about 17, and is now as healthy a young man as you are likely to meet anywhere." "My mother's statement about my case is in every respect true. (Signed) "John Robertson, Austral Hotel, Bundle street, Adelaide."

The stomach, the kidneys, the liver, etc., are watch-dogs set to give and to guard the life of the body. They resent bad treatment; but when you have been either unfortunate wr foolish, consider what the people say as to the curative virtues of the medicine named by this mother and her son, to whom be continual health and prosperity.
