"The cause of earthquakes, is si/It" J'his .'is the way a threat preacher / okplained these terrifying convulsions i,r tiie earth. Just fancy the destruction of M essina ami ileggio as resulting from violation of moral law. It is more likely that- a good deal of siw results from earthquakes. Hut Jlanjiali -More, the great authoress, camo pretty close 1:0 vhe truth when .sl\-> .said, "The cause Of a ileal of sin, ii> bile!" That hit of wisdom and opinion we can understand easily.

All the earthquakes that ever shoni: this wickyd world have hot, done :is. much" harm' to human beings as is dime every year by .sleepy stomachs and law livers.

The illness gradually increased on me. ]. became, very weak anil emaciated, and 1 was subject to lits of depression: and nervousness.

"I tried a lot of different medicines and treatments, but nothing gave ine any real relief until, about two .years back, 1 took Mother Seigel's Syrrip. I. was in a very bad way in Iced nt tho time, but a few doses eased my cliesu. and in a few days I began, to "breatlio freely and to sleep without the ussial choking sensations. My appetite, improved, all the distressing symptoms of Indigestion decreased, and J felt, stronger and, hotter. In quite a. .short; time I. was quite freed from in.v oldi ailments. I shall f.lways use Mother Seigel's Syrup when I need medicine."' Kxtract from letter of Mr Will in im Law, -1 OS, Ann street, Brisbane, Q.
