n DANGEROUS SURGICAL OPERATION
A fatal mistake. At :hr time DR. Vance
of Cleveland, performed the operation on
the lady for the removal of cancer of the
stomach, he found. when too late. that the
poor woman had no cancer to be removed
The disease was Indigestion and if she had
taken the Shaker Extract of Roots tSiegprS
Syruy), that awful distress at the pit of the
stomach, which made the doctors think she
had cancer, would have been removed
Distress after eating, dull, heavy feeling in
the head, with pains in the side and back
ali vanish after using this wonderful rem
edy. The tired. languid feeling gives place
TO strength and vigOr.
Mrs Della Marsh writes from Pea Ridge,
Benton Co., Ark, that she had dyspepsia
in the worst form for five years, and that
nothing gave any relief until she used the
Siegel Syrup.

CHOLERA 1NFANTUM. - The greatest
causes of this dread disease are excessive
heat and improper food. Infants who are

the hot summer safely. A physician in
one of our largest cities brought up his
babe upon it and wrote the following as his
experience: During these two years while
