A WELL-KNOWN B CISINESS MAN'S
EXPERIENCE.
. .

"In 1869 I was kicked in the leg by a li.orse, but before I
fully recovered from this, rheumatism came upon we for
the first time in my life, Shortly after this, I moved to
Wales, and while there through exposure to all kinds of
weather, my rheumatism greatly increased in severity and
my system became very weak, and 1 suffered from cough
and indigestion. Then smallpox fell upon me, and though
I survived while it proved fatal to many hundreds, it left
me very weak indeed, and my general illness after that
baffled the skill of many doctors. Subsequently, I took a
deathly chill, and tnen you may be sure I had rheumatism
more severely still. The doctors told me the chill had
been in my system fur two years or more. I trace it back
to near the time of the smallpox. This was in timelfol-
lowed by rheumatic fever and enlargement of the liver,
the effects, as I believe of that nearly fatal chill. Then I
had a severe attack of palpitation of the heart, aud was
laid prostrate for a month, and for three months thereafter
I was obliged to creep up and down stairs. I was ill more
or less continually for another eighteen months. If I did
work a fortnight after a manner I was sure to lose the
next through acute illness. The doctors told me there was
nothing more they could do for me, but advised a
change of locality and air. I moved to Devonshire but
hero I was struck down again with rheumatic fever 'and
rheumatism, from which I did not rally for' over eleven
months, Here I was again given over by four doctors
each declaring me incurable. My sickness and acute suf
ferings covered a period ,)f more than eight years prior to
1883, when I heard of Seigel's Syrup. I tried it, and
through its use I am thankful to be able to say that I was
very soon restored to health, and have ever since been
able to follow my usual occupation. I kept the medicine
constantly by me, and if at any time I imagine aisymptom
of recurrence of either of my former complaints, at once
take a few drops of the Syrup, which sets me all right
again. I truly believe if I had had*Seigel's Syrup in the
outset, I should have escaped years of suffering. I am
fartaermore confident that, if used in a proper manner,
and according to directions, it will do good, if not cure, in
other cases then dyspepsia and rheumatism. This may
appear to many too good to be true ; but God is my wit-
ness that every word is the truth and nothing more, and
the facts are known to many who know me. You are at
liberty to make what use of this you like, to the advantage
of the suffering race of mankind. If you find any imper-
fections in this wording or writing, you may correct—but
the statements cannot be altered, as they are nothing but

MOTHER SIEGEL TAKES THE LADY'S CRUTCHEV.
A lady writes us from Sturton-le-Steeple, last December
as f :Mows :—"I have great pleasure in testifying to the
benefits received from using Mother Seigel's Curative
Syrup. In November. 1881, I had tried several prescrip-
tion, and suffered much from a disordered system. Before
taking your medicine I was brought down so low and weak
that I could not possibly get along without the assistance
of crutches, so it took a considerable time to bring about

myself, they would not be without it."
