THEY RESENT INTRUSION.
That dear old dog of mine; he is dead, long ago. • He troubled nobody who passed his post outside the fence." If he was _ in the mood for a nap, he would lie iv 'some shady spot, and, with half-closed eyes, take in dreamily what a. great Eng. lish preacher used to call "this whirling world of God's." But if a stranger opened the gate, evidently meaning to walk up the gravel path to the house, Don Quixote was gui vive in the rustle of a grass blade. For it was his duty to resent intrusion. The more he violated the Gospel precept the more he hated his neighbour, the more useful he was; the more commendable his conduct in the sight of his friends. He is dead, as I said. In pace. He was worth; the tears we dropped on the soda that cover him. We loved him for the enemies he made. You get the lesson, don't you? Things that ars entitled to respect, things that have any decent claim, toi eyist, will not stand to., be imposed upon; they will > fight; if necessa,ry, they will kill you. That is why Mrs Margaret Robertson said in her letter, "My stomach rebelled; and whenever I fancied I had an appetite and ventured to satisfy it, the experiences I underwent were1 fearfully distressing.. ."I had a sense of fulness in the chest and; abdomen; and often" a. clear sour fluid,.v ejected from the stomach, ran from my mouth before I was able to control it. I used to employ means to make myself sick in order to get rid of the intolerable nausea, ' • "Other * measures.for relief having failed, I adopted the suggestion of an acquaintance, and began using Mother Seigel's syrup. This was about eight .years' ago. From the first my digestion improved, and when I had taken the reinedv for a- short time 1 was in good health. " "Not a symptom of disease remained, although I had been a martyr to inflammatory dyspepsia, for several years. I have been in business in Melbourne Street, N. Adelaide!, S.A., for nine years, and this is the 12th of April, 1900. "All who wish coiToboration of my written statement can obtain it by calling on me at my store. "I have a word further to say about Seigel's Syrup, and may as well say it now. About four years ago> my son' developed, a-kidney derangement, which was pronounced Bright's disease. No medical treatment proved of any avail. I believm the Syrup would help him, and it did. - "He was distinctly better before he badfinished the first bottle; then I stopped, the medicine (too soon), and he had a relapse. " ' r ; " "I recommended at once giving him th& doses regularly after he ate, and in eight weeks he was cured. He was then about 17, and is now as healthy a. young man as you are likely to meet anywhere." "My mother's statement about my case is in every respect true. ' (Signed) "John Robertson, Austral Hotel* Rundle Street, Adelaide." l 'The 'Stomach, the kidneys, the liver, etc., are watch-dogs, set to give and to guard the life of the body. They resent bad treatment; but when you have been either unfortunate or foolish,, consider what the people say as to the curative virtues of the. medicine named by this mother and her son, to whom be continual walth and prosperity, " ™
