A HUMAN OSTRICH.

It is reported from America that a man o,ieu there recently under the most startling conditions. This poor, misguided lellow ■ used to swallow nails, chains and similar articles. In an attempt to save the man's life, the doctors removed from his stomach a watch chain, several keys, and a number of iion nails! No wonder the poor fellow died, for such tilings are not food, nor are they such waste as can be naturally expelled 1 And everything you put into your stomach must either feed and nourish you, or be expelled, as waste, by the bowels. In other words, it must be thoroughly digested, or you will be sure to suffer and, in the end, to die! But if your stomach is out of order, even plain wholesome food does not digest, as it should. Then, instead of nourishing you, it actually poisons you and clogs your system. This is the cause of pains after eating; headaches, bilious attacks, constipation, sleeplessness, rheumatic troubles, low spirits and many other everyday ailments; and the only cure for all ■such troubles is to restore your stomach, liver, and bowels to heaithy condition. To do this, you should take Mother Ceigel's Syrup. This root and herb extract restores your stomach to working order, makes food nourish you, clears your system of the 'poisonous product's of indigestion, and thus keeps you in sound bodily health and in cheerful spirits. Here is a proof of these facts in a letter from Mrs i-Lliza King, 120, Botany Street, Waterloo, New South Wales, dated January 13th, 1910. -Mrs King says:— "Several years back, my health began to fail. J was constantly ailing and out of sorts. 1 completely lost my appetite and the little 1 did eat seemed to have no taste or liavour, and did not do me a bit of good. After eating, 1 always had severe pains m the chest and a teeliug of suifoeation. Headaches were of almost daily occurrence. Every week, 1 became more pale, nervous, and weak. This went on for more than a year and then the doctor teiid me that i was thoroughly run-down and required a complete change. "So I went on a visit to some friends in the country. The change did not benefit me, however, and it was not until I was led to try Mother Seigel's Syrup that my health began to mend, t got great relief and felt very much stronger after the first bottle oi the Syrup. 1 began to enjoy my meals, and, better stiii, had no trouble or distress after them. My headaches stopped. Four or five more bottles of Syrup completed my cui-c and restored me to comleted health and strength. "On my return home, my husband, who had also been in poor health, began to take Mother Seigel's Syrup. A few bottles cured him, too, of longstanding indigestion, and made him as he says -feel like a new man.' It is now over two years since we recovered our health, and we are botli still well and free from all symptoms of our old complaints." If you have anv form of stomach trouble or liver disorder, Mother Seigel's Syrup will cure you, too, quickly and permanently. Test it yourself to-day.
