You can't have a fire without burning some kind of fuel. Yon agree to this? Why, of course. Well, now suppose you had bought a stove in which no Juel whatever mould burn, what would you do ? Throw it back on the dealer's hands and get another 7 To be sure. Now, fancy you had Bat let us hare the story first and draw the conclusion afterwards. A woman tells this bit of experience :— " It was in 1882," she says, " when I began to feel ill and out of sorts. I did not know what was the matter with me. In the morning I was tired and languid, and was constantly spitting and belching up a clear fluid-like water. My appetite gradually left me, and I had great pain after every morsel I ate. I had great pain at the chest, which at times seemed to Btrike through to the back and shoulders, I lost a good deal of sleep at night, owing to spiams and to wind that appeared to gather in my sides. No food, however simple, agreed with me. For three years I Buffered like this, and could take no solid food, such as a meat dinner. " Now, as I had always been of an active disposition, I strove hard to do my work and attend to my shop, bnt in April, 1885, 1 got so bad that I sant for my daughter, who was living at Priest Hntton, near Carnfortb, and she returned home. Whilst away she bad beea under a doctor for weakness and neuralgia, bnt getting no better shs had been recommended to take a medicine called Mother Seipel's Curative Syrup, and this enred her ; so she insisted upon my taking the same medicine. I got a bottle from Messrs Needham Bros? chemists, Brighouse, and began to take it. In a day or two I found relief. Soon all my pains left me, and I gradually gained strength. I could eat my food, and after having used two bottles I found myself completely cured. ' " I have recommended this medicine to many of my friends and customers who come to my Bhop, and it has done them good ; so I think it right that its virtue should be made as widely known as possible." (Signed) Mrs Collinge, grocer, Bastrick, Brighoose, near xlcillt£lXt Another weman says :— ln December, 1885, after my confinement, 1 began to have a poor appetite and much pain and sickness after eating. My food seemed to turn to wind, and I suffered from fulness in the chest and pain in the stomach. I gradually lost my strength, and fell into a low despondent state of mind. However light food I took I had pain, so that I became afraid to eat. I lost a deal of sleep, and got so weak I was frequently obliged to lie down on the couch and rest. At times the pain was almost more than I could bear, and I had to go to bed and have hot Bait applied to my chest and s-omach, for when these attacks came on I felt asifl mas dying. The doctor who attended me said I was suffering from Chronic Indigestion, and that something was wrong with the " upper stomach " What a strange statement for a doctor to make 1 He did all he could to relieve m»>, but without success, and I lingered on in this way for twelve months. About this time Mr Connor, stevedore, living at Dennison street, told my father of the great benefit he had deiived from taking Mother Beigel's Syrup, and I sent at once and got a bottle, and after taking three bottles all pain left me. I got strong and could eat anything, and from that day to this I have never been ill. 1 keep the medicine in the house, and if any of the family ail anything a dose or two of Mother Seisel's Syrup sets them right.

The human stomach is a stove, and food is the fuel we put into I it. If the food is consumed, or digested the body is nourished and built up, and we enjoy health and strength ; but if otherwise we quickly waste away and perish. Njw, when the stomach refuses to digest, burn or consume food, we have what is called indigestion and dyspepsia, the most common and dangerous of all diseases* This is what ailed these two women, and what ails millions more in this country. The conclusion is pla n enough :— The remedy which cured them will cure others. Then (the fire burning well) we shall have heat, which is life and power.
