how simple it was, I was seized with great pain across the chest and around the sides. I was frequently sick, vomiting a sour, bitter fluid. I was almost afraid to eat, and my food gave rne no strength. In i his stato I continued, now a bit better, »nd then worse until December, 18915, when I became very ill. I got so weak I could hardly bear the j weight of my body on my feet. 1 tried \ Ihi* and 7 tried that—all Unds of medicines I heard of but none of them gave me any relief. " Iu January, 1894, I read in a little book about the cures done by Mother Seigel's Syrup. Tho book contained letters from people who had been cured, j some of whom had suffered like me. I got a bottle from Miss Caroline Foster, grocer and draper, High Street, in this place. After taking it I was much better. I bad a new relish for food, and no more distress after eating. I continued taking Mother Seine's Syrup, and was free from all pain and sickness and fast gaining strength. Since then I have been in the best of health, and needed no medicine. (Signed) Mrs Eleanor Clay, Messingham, Brigg, Lines, April 30th, 1895." "In the year of 1875," writes another, "my health began to fail me. I felt low and weak, and lost all power and disposition to exert myself. x\fter every meal I had pain in the chest and all over me. I felt so tight around the waist that it seemed as though something was holding me. I was much troubled with a sickening wind coming up from my stomach ; and now and then belched up a sour fluid that bit my throat and half choked me. Then, too, I had attacks of spasms, which gave me intense pain. I got abont my work slowly and in muflfc distress, aud'grow gradually weaker and more despondent in mind. I tried till the various medicines that I could hear of that might -possibly be good for me, but none of them were of any avail. " After fivo tedious years'of suffering my daughter, who is in service in London. wrote me of the benefit her mistress had derived from the use of Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup when troubled much as I was. I replied, and my daughter sent me two bottles of the Syrnp, and after having taken it, I felt quite bko a new woman. I bad no paiu after eating, and was in better health than I had been in since I was first taken ill. From that time onwards my health was good and if I ail anything temporarily, ns tho best of us will, a few doses of Mother Seigel's Syrup put me right. I have told many persons of what this now celebrated remedy did for me, and am willing you should publish my statement if you desire to do so. (Signed) (Mrs.)'Ann Knight, near tho Church, Fenny Compton, Leamington, September 27th, 1S!)5. By looking back to tho italicised words in these lettors the reader will catch, my point on tho instant. Both theso ladies, not knowing the true remedy for their disease (indigestion and dyspepsia), blindly experimented with anything they could get hold of. Under like circumstances we all do the same. When one doesn't know the road he is almost certain to blunder and ttumble; and he can't kn«. . uiiii he it-arns. Now, in all ailments of tho digestion, with the local symptoms which proceed from it, Mother Seigel's Syrup is, so to put it, tho right road. Follow it faithfully, and you aro fairly sure to bring up in the pleasant sholtcr of good health. Know ing this, direct your neighbours. 418j5
