MY object in writing is two-fold
WI TO express my gratitude for a
great benefit, and to tell a short story
which cannot fail to interest the
feelings of many others, 1t is all
about myself, but | have remarked
that when a man tells the honest
truth about himself he is all the
more likely to he of use to his fell
low-creatures. To begin, then, you
must know | had long been more or
less subject to attacks of bronchitis,
a complaint that you are aware is
very common and troublesome in
Great Britain in certain seasons of
the year. Some months ago j had
a very severe turn of it, worse, ]
think, than j ever had before. 1t
was probably brought on by my
catching cold, as we are all apt to
do when we least expect it, Weeks
passed by, and my trouble proved
to be very obstinate. 1t would not
yield TO medicine, and as l also be-
gan to have violent racking pains in
my limbs and back, | became great
| ly alarmed. | could neither eat nor
sleep. If ] had been feeble, sick
ly man, / should have thought less
strangely of it; but as, on the con-
trary, ] was hearty and robust, l
feared some new and terrible thing
had got hold of me, which might
make my strength of no avail against
it. | say, that was the way j
thought.
Presently / could not even lie
down for the pain all over my body.
j asked my doctor what he thought
of my condition, and he frankly,
~ am sorry to have to tell you that
you are getting worse!" This SC
frightened my friends, as well as
myself, that they said "1homaS,
yow must 40 TO the Hospital; d
may be your only chance for MeP'
But / didn't want to 90 to the
hospital. Who does, when he
thinks he can possibly get along
without doing it? l am labouring
man, with large family depending
on me for support, and might al
most as well be in my grave as t.
be laid on my back in hospita
unable to lift hand for months
or God only knows how long. Righ
at this point | had a thought flasI
across my mind like a streak of sun
shine in cloudy day. | had hearC
and read good deal about Mothe
SeigePs Curative Syrup, and re
solved, before conserving to b
taken to the hospital, l would tr,
that wellknown remedy. On this
gave up the Doctors medicine ant
began taking the Syrup. Mark tn
wonderful result! | had taken bu
three doses within twenty-four hour
when i was seized with fit 0
coughing, and threw up the phlegr
and mucus off my chest by tn
mouthfuI. The Syrup has loosene
and broken it up. Continuing wit
the Syrup, the racking pain, whic
believe came from the bitter an
poison humors in my blood an
joints, soon left me entirely, and
felt like going to sleep, and | di
sleep sound and quiet. Then | fe
hungry, with natural appetite, an
as | ate ] soon got strong and wei
/ felt ! could leap through u
air with deIi1Htl
In week was able to go to m
work again. 1t doesn't seem poss
BILE, yet it is true, and the neigl
bours know it. There are plent
of witnesses to prove it. AM
therefore, when | say / preach IL
good news of the great power
SeigePs Syrup to cure pain and d
sease far and wide, nobody w
wonder at me.
