FARMER OAK AND THE STORM.

When farmer Oak, on his way towards hit humble oottage one night, struck his foot agaiust a big toad, he knew there was trouble in the wind. When, on ■triking a light indoors, he observed a thin glistening streak across his table, which termiuated io m. large brown gard*» *)»g, ha knew agala that the Great Mother was warning him. And when, last of all, two black spiders dropped from the thatched roof of bis cottage, to find a safer home on the floor, he sat down and meditated how the coming great thunderstorm would affect the wheat-ricks and barley stacks, and what might be saved. There are >'g ns which are as unmiataksbte io their significance as the turned thumbs of tbe Romans in the days of the amphitheatre. In the case of Mrs Green, where Grst one symptom disappeared, after a dose or two of Seigel's Syrup, and then another, this^lady knew that the Syrup was on the way to cure , her as surely as she lived. 'As 1 suffered for -about three yearß from most acute indigestion,' she writes, ' it gives me great pleasure to testify to tho complete oute which a sm&U quantity Ot Seigel's Curative Syrup effected in my easd,' after" several medical men had pre« scribed for me in vain. , *From 1897 until about two months ago (the date of Mrs Green's letter is December 3rd, 1900 ) I endured a coctinu»l;»gony of sleepless nights, racking headaches, tired and languid feelings and nasty choking sensations in the throat. A ereat deal of my time was spent In bed, as 1 was quite unable to get about.' Cynical men and women sometimes propound, the query, Is life wotih Living 1 The fnot is, many people don't know how io live. They exist merely. Like prisoners conßned in a dungeon or who are given liberty conditionally upon their dragging a weight about. Perfect health is the first necessity of a happy life. Torpid livers, constipated motions, areemic disorders, skin affections and uric acid troubles, render life unbearable. The victim, whether he be farmer or prime minister, will eventually have to take to bed as did Mrs Green in this instance. 'I had been in bed four weeks,' she continues, ' when a friend who iB a firm believer inSeigel's Curative Syrup for all forms of dyspeptio troubles called upon me, and strongly urged me to try this { etmedy. * I confess 1 was sceptical, but my friend insisted and gave me a bottle to co mm en ge with. I got immediate relief from .this, .and before the bottle vrss •mpty tHfe distressing symptoms had nearly every one disappeared. 'I purchased another battle myself, and that complied the cure. lam now in perfect health. Naturally, I consider the effect of Seigel's Syrup in my case marvellous. It changed me from an invalid and dyspeptio of three yearn' standing, into a healthy woman. 1 1 am a native ef Auckland and well known here, where I have been in bu&\« ness Cur nine ye&tft. ' ( fifi »a) Anni e Greer>, St. George's Hall Buildings, Great North Road, Auckland, N.Z Farmer Oak could foretell a thunderstorm from signs that he bad been taught to- read by long experience, and years of study eaable me to set down here signs of a condition, which, if not cured, will bring about a collapse of ?oiu By&tem. If any ot the foUowi&g symptoms are troubling you, secure a bottle of Seigel'a Syrup at once, and follow the directions for taking it. Lack of appetite, heart palpitation, paius in the chest, back, head, aud aides, flatulency, low and depressed spirits, nerve, and neuralgic pains, aneemia, pains in the kidneys, rheumatism, gout and sciatica, gravel or stone, a QUtling pttiu between the etvovvldetß, weak Bye»Sgbi, Constipation and headaches, so-called ' decline,' counterfeit heart disease, great mental distress. These disoiders are like so many branches of a genealogical tree, and apiing from the one great evil, Indigestion.
