WHAT AN ATHLETE .SUFFERED .. I'ilUAi. AfLiE INDIGESTION. '_ MOTHER SEiUEL'S SYRUP CURED ■:•...; HIM. "I had led an active outdoor life up to the time . I received a clerical appointment: in the Government service." says Mr. John Kelly, in. a letter to the pro-prietors-of Mother Siegel's Syrup, dated ■September 20th, 1905. "I had some reputation as an amateur athlete, and_ my health had always been good,", continues Mr Kelly; "but when. I had spent two years. in the General Post Office, I began to suffer from indigestion. "Rightly or wrongly, I believe my illness was - due to confinement indoors. My weight declined to 9 stone 4 pounds—a great falling off. My friends thought I was going into consumption, and I feared .that they were right. Everything I ate, no matter what the' nature of the food, was soon followed by terrible pains at my chest. There was frequent pain, too,' at my back, between'the shoulder blades, with headache, sickness, and a general feeling of unfitness."
IX SEARCH OP A REMEDY. ." I. took professional advice and faithfully followed it; but'with-ho good result Then I engaged in all kinds, of physical exercise.; but I soon found that my. lost health was nob to be regained that way. Next, I tried various medicines—but all. alike, failed to relieve me of the pains of indigestion. "In proof that a. man may sometimes be doing good work when he thinks he is idling, one day I was thoughtlessly turning over the leaves of a. booklet containing accounts of cures effected by Mother Seigel's Syrup, I became interested and was 'at last, so much impressed that I bought a bottle of that medicine. " The effect of ' Mother SeigeFs syrup upon me was better than I had dared hope for. When I had finished the second bottle, my appetite had returned. Continuing its use, the painful symptoms of my complaint gradually abated, and my weight increased daily. By the time I had used eight bottles, I weighed 14 stone 6 pounds, and my health wars perfect. "I have no need for medicine now, but I keep a. bottle of Mother/Seigd's Syrup in the -house in case I should again have any indigestion."—John. Kelly, 37, Church Street, Hawthorn, Victoria.
On the 18th November, 1907, Mr. Kelly reported to us that his health continued entirely satisfactory.
If you 6uffer\from Indigestion, as did Mr Kelly, take Mother Seigel's- Syrup and take it now! Take it regularly. " Take it as conscientiously as you would take'medicine especially prescribed for you by some celebrated physician—and it ".will cure you.
