Do l know what will do it? No, l
don't. If did l could retail the secret
for more money than is slowed away
in the Bank of England. But I do
know one thing, and will tell it you in
a minute-for nothing.
First, however, we will talk of Mr.
J. B. Goss and the friction he tried so
long to overcome. Mr.. Goss is a large
farmer living at Stradsett, near Down
ham Market, Norfolk, and is well
known in his district When the far
mers meet on market days he often
speaks of his experience and how he
came out of it.
In order to cover it all he has to go
back fifteen years-to about 1878. At
that time he began to feel the signs of
some disease which he could neither
account for not understand. At first
he merely realized that he was out of
condition His work became less and
less a pleasure and more and more a
task. From his business his thoughts
turned upon himself, and no man can
work well in that form. Then he and
his victuals began to disagree, which
- d oldlt VI lDll4SS W lldht d man doh
what can the reason be?
He had a well-provided table, of
course; yet he often sat down to his
meals and couldn't touch morsel. Mr..
Goss knew that this would never do.
If man expects to live, he must eat.
There are no two ways about that.
So he ate more or less-although not
much-without the stimulus of an ap-
petite; he forced it down, as you may
say. But this wouldn't do either.
When the stomach goes on strike it
can't be Whipped into working before
the question at issue is properly set
tied.
Thus it ended in his having great
pain and tightness at his sides and
chest. 81 was constantly belching up
sour fluid" he says, which ran out
of my mouth like vinegar. I had a
horrible sensation at the stomach for
which l was not able to find any relief.
For nights together 1 could get no
sleep; and in this general condition
I continued for fire gears, no medicine
or medical treatment doing more than
to abate some of the worst symptoms
| for the time being
I'm the early part of 1888 heard of
medicine which was said to do good
in cases like mine. Whether it would
help me of course I had no idea. After
so many things have failed, one nat
urally has no faith in a new one Yet
! got a supply and began with it. In
short time it was plain that l had
come upon the real remedy at last. Ny
! food agreed with me, and soon all pain
and distress gradually left me. Since
then (now ten years ago) I have kept
in the best of health. If I, or any OF
my family all anything, a dose OF
Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup-the
medicine that cured me-soon sets us
right. We have no need of a doctor
(Signed) ]. B. Goss, March oath, 1898 ;
Mr.. Goss once said that if Seigels
Syrup cost 20s. a bottle he would moi
be without it in his house. We car
easily believe him. Considering what
it did for him-and does for others
it would be cheap at any price. Yet
like plenty of things OF the highest
practical value, it costs but little. The
reader can imagine under what diff.
Guilty and friction Mr. Goss must have
done what work he did during those
five years suffering with indigestion
and dyspepsia.
This then, we know; that life's fFic
ton and loss of power comes chiefly
from that single disease, and thai
arises from the use of Mother Seigel's
great discovery.
