IT WAS NOT THE CLIMATE.

'I have been well as to my general health'— so wrote the late Dr O. W. Holmei a* abort time before his death — •but have had a good deal of asthma. The climate is oold and rough, but I have found much thai ia delightful about toy residence here in Boston (America). Perhaps, after all, the fault is not bo much in latitude 42 as in l a^«B2.' That was it. The" wise thinker did not deceive himself. He knew that it is the wastiDg muscles that complain of the ■teapneac of the hlila and the thinning Woo«J that fetfefo* khe'tpinlsM are colder than they used to be. And it was not because Mrs Amy Harvey had lost -interest in her domestic Affairs that Bhe*wts led to Bay everything was a trouble and a bnrden. No ;it was because she had lost her strength. Whether a duty is a burden or not depends on the back which has to carry It. Ah, dear me, how constantly experience enforces that lesson upon us. ' Then what keen concern we feel in the answer to the question : What will strengthen the quivering limbs ? What will restore the vigor of the mind ? « AH my life,' says Mrs Harvey, 4 1 have suffered off and on from indigestion and weakness. I felt low and languid, with a disagreeable sinking sensation after taking my meals. I had no energy ; everything was a trouble and a burden. As soon as 1 had partaken of food, no matter how light, I felt a fulness and a gnawing pain at my chest, aa if cfomething were tearing it. 'I also Buffered much from nervous headache and "was often dizzy. My breathingnras^Bhort, ■■ and if I exerted mydelf ~T f wiis quite out "of breath. -As time went on I got extremely weak and could not attend to my work. ' I saw doctor after doctor and was told by them that my ailment was owing to myfood not digesting.' [The doctors were right. That was the trouble, and the only one. Yet, instead of being a comparative trifle, as many shallow persons say, it iB the moat serious of alPdiseases. Of course/ some of her food'digesVd more or less fully; otherwise she could not have lived a fortnight, j But the nourishment was never enough for the wants' ;t of the "body. Hence the netvous headaches, the asthma, the sink* ing sensation, the dizziness, the gnawing pain, and the disabling 1 weakness. The body under these conditions is like a house abandoned to decay. All goes to rack and ruin.] 'J took the doctors - medicines,' continues this lady'a plain account, ' but my case was an obstinate one and none of them seemed of any avail. 'In May, 1891, a neighbor- tbld me of the benefit she had derived from Mother Seigel's Syrup. I got a bottle from Messrs W. Fox and Sons, Chemists, Bethnai Green, and when I had taken it two days I felt much relief, t continued taking it, and could eat and eojoy my food without having pain: I now gained strength and felt brighter than I had ever done in my life. t. Since then I have kept well, taking a dose or two of Mother Seigel's Syrup when I need it ; and I find it always puts me right. You '.can publish this statement if you think -fit. (Signed) (Mrs) Amy Harvey,* 19, *J. ; Block, Dufferin Street, Bunhill Bow, London, June 26tb, 1896.' ' In March, 1894/ writes another, ' I had a severe attack of influenza which left me extremely weak. I was troubled with indigestion and waist of appetite. Having read of the wonderful cures made by Mother Seigel's Syrup I decided to try it. I got a bottle from Mr Wm. Hy. Jonts, .the chemißt in Caledonian Road. In two days TMt great benefit. I could «at, and fued rfgreed with me, causing no p^tn, In a few days I was completely cured imd well a$ ever. SjuG' iba- iuue I have kt>pt Mother St gtj 9 « Bycup in the bouse ub a family uucuciu- , and it always relieves wheu any of us suffer from iudigeßtion, etc. 1 have pleasure in making this statement, and you can publish it if you wish. (Signed) Geo. H. Barker, 44, Mootpelier Road, Kentish Town, London, N.W., June 9th, 1896.' These excellent letters call for no explanation. Their sincerity and troth is plain on the Burface. And when we remember that what the writers affirm of Mo her Seigel's Syrup is also declared by i'OuS'.uub ut others, the value of this . u.euy 10 established beyond question.
