IN A THIRD CLASS CARRIAGE.

Early in February of this year (1S94)
was travelling in a third class car
riage in the neighbourhood of Glas-
gov. At station two women entered
the compartment in which l was seat
ed. One was girl, gaudily dressed;
the other a typical working woman.
She had no hat or bonnet, and
wore a stuff petticoat. with a shawl
wrapped round her. She was the. pic
ture Of rude, robust health.
The girl asked how her companion
Was, remarking that she had heard she
had been far from well.
Deed, but / was" responded the
elder woman, Il thocht / was at dei,h's
door"
"Ah say, what like was the matter
wi ye?"
Il cud dae nae work; If I tried to
wash the floor | got siccin heart
beatin'. and my stomach fair turned at
the SIGHT O. food. | went to three doc
tors, one after anither, and they gae
me bottles and bottles, but It didna
help me ana till frien' tellt me to
try Mother Siegel's Syrup. Wuman. in
week ! was better and fin I had ta'en
1t month I was a RIGHT and could
eat and work well as ever"
Then they went on talking of other
subjects. Go where one may he is
likely to hear some good said about
Mother Siegel and what Is done by her
famous medicine. Sometimes II is in
the form of bit of passing talk like
the one quoted above; and again It
takes the shape of letters, fragrant
with gratitude for health regained.
Here is one. We hope many suffering
women will see It and read It.
I'm August, 1892" says the WRITER,
II began to feel low, weak, and ailing.
My appetite was bad, and what little
! ate gave me much pain at the chest
/ was constantly splitting up a clear
fluid like water, and / heaved and
strained good deal. At the pit Of
my stomach there was gnawing feel
ing. and there seemed to be hard
lump formed in my abdomen. In any
case suffered much from pain in that
region.
my breathing got to be very bad.
and l wheezed rs II the windpipe were
clogged and stopped up. I had hack
ing cough which gave me but little
rest day or night. and was troubled
with night sweats. The pillow my
head had lain on would be wet in the
morning.
"In two or three weeks after the
time was taken, was no longer able
to take solid food, or indeed food Of
any kind. I lived for two months on
milk. lime water, brandy, and the like.
During that time lay helpless in bed
"Often would have fainting fits.
and had to be lifted up and supported
in bed. I was now so weak that my
friends feared there was no hope for
me, and I was anointcd By the priest.
I had doctor attending me, but he
was not successful in giving me any
real relief.
I'm the following November, although
very Ill and low, was able at times
to read a little, and then II was that !
read one day about Mother Seigers
Syrup and the wonders It had done for
others. ! sent for 1t. and less than half
bottle made me feel better. I had a
trifle more appetite and could eat a
little and retain II. So I went on with
the Syrup, and when I had used four
bottles the cough and all the other
troubles left me, and soon I was as
well and strong as before. You are Mt
liberty to publish my letter II you de-
sire, for the good Of others who may
suffer as did without knowing where
to look for cure. (Signed) Mrs.
Honoria Brennan, AZ Great Britain
Street, Cork. March 18th, 1894"
A good letter. a cheering letter, dat
ed on st. Patrick's Day. too. A great
thing to be rid of snakes, but a greater
thing to be rid OF indigestion and dys-
pepsia-more poisonous than any rep
tile that ever crawled. And that was
the dreadful ailment which gave Mrs.
Brennan three months Of suffering: the
ailment that the Scotch women talked
of in the train; the ailment that in
flicts more pain and fills up more
graves than all the other ailments on
earth put together.
And yet Mother Seigel's Curative
Syrup cures 1t as fast as people hear OF
It and take 1t. That's why we keep
telling about It, and printing what
everybody tells about 1t over and over.
