A WELL-KNOWN B USINE SS MANS
EXPERIENCE.
In 1869 I was kicked in the lee by a horse, but before
fully reeivered from this, rheumatism came upon no for
the fir 4t time in my life, Shortly after this, 1 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 I suffered from cough
and indigestion. Then smalirox fell upm me, and though
I survived while it proved fatal to many hundreds, it left
me very weak indica, and my general illueis after that
baffled the skill of many doctors. Subsequently, I toll: a
deathly chill, and then you may be sure I had rheumatism
more severely still. The doctors told me the chill had
been in my system fttr two years or more. I trace it back ,
to near the time of the smallpox. This was in time fot
lowed by rheumatic fever and enlargement of the liver,
the effects, as I believe, of that nearly fatal ch 11. Then 1
had a severe attack of palpitation of the heart, and was
laid prostrate for a month, and for three mantles thereafter
I was obliged to creep up and down stairs. I was ill more
or less continually for another eighteen mouths. 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 f more they could do for me, but advised a
change orlocality and air. I moved to Devonhhire, but
here 1 was struck down again with rheumatic fever anti ,
rheumatism, from which I did not rally for over eleven
months, Here I was again given over by four dottors
each declaring me incurable. My sickness and acute suf
ferings covered a period of 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 tlie Modicum •
constantly by me, and if at any time I imagine a symptom
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 f had had Seigel's Syrup in the
outset, I should have escaped years of suffering. I am
furthermore 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. net
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 itnper-
fections in this wording or writing, you may correct—but
the statements cannot be altered, as they are nothing but
ruth. War. ItarinELL.

MOTHER SIEGEL TAKEs THE LADY'S CRUTCHES.
A lady writes us from Sturton-le-Steeple, last December
as f )llows :—"I have groat pleasure in testifying to the,
benefits received from using Mother Seigel's Curative
Syrup. In November, 1881, 1 had tried several prescrip-,
tion, and suffered much from a disordered system. Before
taking your medicine 1 was brought down so low and weak
that 1 could not possibly get along without the assistance
of crutches, so it took a consiJorable time to bring about
a perfect c,fre. 1 can thankfully and confidently say it
effected a cure by the spring of 1882, 1 have since then
recommended it to several friends, and whenever they
have given it a fair trial, it has Droved a blessing. Like
myself, they would not be without it."
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
What moan these strong and impressive letters p why
do people write them to men who are comparative
straugers ? They have no interest in the welfare of our
businels. They can gain nothing by sending us such
flattering testimonials. Then why do they write them?
, The fact is, they know that Seigel's Syrup is worthy of the
community • they themselves leave been relieved of pain,
suffering and disease, and they are anxious that ethers
who may be suffering may find relief as they have done.
They have a friendly feeling for their kind, and they have
sent us these letters from itemise of duty to suffering
humanity, pointing out the way of escape from paia
and disease. It means that Seigel's Syrup has merit
and that it ties zee(' to our race afflicted with disease.
