A CURIOUS THEORY ABOUT EARTHQUAKES.

"The cause of earthquakes, is sin! This is the way a great preacher explained these terrifying convulsions oi the earth. Just, fancy the destruction of Messina and ifeggio as resulting lrom violation of moral law. It is more likely that- a good deal of sin results lroin earthquaKes.' But Hannah Mure, the great authoress, tain--pretty close to the truth when sh-; said, The cause oi a deal of sin, i-: bile:" That bit gf wisdom and opinion we can understand easily. Bile poisons the blood —and poisoned, impure blood poisons the brain. The brain is the organ of the mind and senses.

AIL the earthquakes that ever shook this wicked world have not (lone a.s much harm to human beings as is done every year by sleepy stomachs and lazy livers. Generals have lost battles, workmen have lost good jobs, husbanils and wives .lave quarrelled be cuse of "a touch <1 liver complaint." That ugly force called biliousness could '•break up a majority in the House of Commons." "•.From mv youth I was afflicted with poor health and suffered much from indigestion and Asthma. The asthma was particularly bad in the hot steamy . weather that prevails in Queensland in the summer rainy season. My breathing was so difficult that I felt like suffocation. I feared going to bed at night, and had to sleep propped lip by pillows. The Indigestion also caused me a lot of suffering. The little food i was able to eat caused me much pain and distress. The illness gradually increased 011 me. I became very weak and emaciated, and i was subject to fits of depression aed nervousness.

••1 tried n lot of different medicinc-s and treatments, nut nothing gave me any real relief until, about two years back, 1 took Mother Seigel's Syrup. 1 was ii. a very bad way indeed at the time, but u few doses eased my chest, and in a few days 1 began to breathe freely and to sleep without the usual choking sensafions. My appetite improved, all the distressing symptoms of Indigestion decreased, and 1 felt stronger and better. In quite a sho.t time 1 was quite freed from my old ailments. I shall j. I ways use Mother Seigel's Svrup when I need medicine." Kxtract from let'.er of Mr William Law, 408, Ann street, Brisbane, Q. Whatever nny be the natural cause of earthquakes, there can In; no doubt about flic upheaval that Biliousness :.nd Indigestion .-inse in the human system. Nor is ".here any doubt that Mother Seigel's Svrup will cure these disorders and at the same time rid til-' sull'erer of constipation, flatulence, dizziness, :md all 'he attendant miseries. It is a purely herbal medicine, and tones no and strengthens all th- 1 organs of digestion.
