The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1889-09-14

My object in writing is two-fold:
WI TO express my gratitude for a
great benefit, and to tell short story
which cannot fail to interest the
feelings of many others. 1t is all
about myself, but l have remarked
that when man tells the honest
truth about himself he is all the
more likely to be Of use to his fell
low-creatures. To begin, then, you
must know l had long been more or
less subject to attacks of bronchitis,
complaint that you are aware is
very common and troublesome in
Great Britain in certain seasons of
the year. Some months ago l had
very severe turn of it, worse, L
think, than l ever had before. 1t
was probably brought on by my
catching cold, rs 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 / 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. L say, that was the way
thought.
Presently 1 could not even liz
down for the pain all over my body
1 asked my doctor what he thought
of my condition, and he frankly
81 am sorry to have to tell you tina
you are getting worse!" This 81
frightened my friends, as well q
myself, that they said "1homas
y0u mast 90 to the Hospital; q
may be your only chance for life!
But 1 didn't want TO go to tn
hospital. Who does, when h
thinks he can possibly get alon
without doing it? l am a labourin
man, with q large family dependin
on me for support, and might a
most as we'll be in my grave as
be laid on my back in hospit'
unable to lift hand for months
or God only knows how long. Rigf
at this point l had thought flas
across my mind like streak of SUI
shine in cloudy day. had hear
and read a good deal about Motht
Seigel's Curative Syrup, and l r.
solved. before consenting to /
taken to the hospital, would IL
that wellknown remedy. On this
gave up the doctors medicine al
began taking the Syrup. Mark Il
wonderful result! l had taken b
three doses within twenty-four hou
when l was seized with a fit
coughing, and threw up the phleg
and mucus off my chest by tt
mouthful. The Syrup has loosen'
and broken it up. Continuing wi
the Syrup, the racking pain, viii
l believe came from the bitter al
poison humors in my blood al
joints, soon left me entirely, and
felt like going to sleep, and d
sleep sound and quiet. Then l fl
hungry, with natural appetite, a
as ate / soon got strong and we
I felt I could leap through
afr Nth delight!
In week l was able to go to
work again. 1t doesn't seem pos
BILE, yet it is true, and the neis
bours know it. There are pier
of witnesses to prove it. Al
therefore, when l say preach
good news of the great power
Seigel's Syrup TO cure pain and
sease far and wide, nobody y
wonder at me.
