THE PISTOL AND THE BOTTLE.

The man who has once driven burg
lar out of his house with pistol Is
likely to keep the weapon handy by
for use in the future.
On similar principle Mrs. Elizabeth
Langmaid is never without bottle OF
Mother Seigers Syrup where she can
Law hands on it any day.
About four years ago she was taken
bad with what was called "a compllca-
ton of complaints" The doctors SAID
she had an abcess on one of her lungs,
and also indigestion and heart troubles
And, seeing how she looked and felt,
we should have believed him without
a moments hesitation.
You can get an idea" she says,
sshow bad 1 was when I tell you l
lay helpless in bed nearly nine months.
Chat does give us the idea and no
mistake Save for the hope OF recov-
ery-which seldom quite perishes in the
mind-I would as lief be dead, and so
have the trouble over and done WITH
Finally" Mrs. Langmaid goes on to
say, when I got out of bed, all of me
that could waste away was gone. l was
lust a skeleton covered by a skin. In
truth, they wrapped me in wadding-
for appearance and for such comfort
and warmth as the protection might
give me.
Whatever my complaint was / al
ways had a dreadful pain in my sides
and under the shoulderblades; but the
medicines I took had no more effect on
it than so much sweetened water would
have had.
While insthis miserable condition,
remembered how different friends OF
mine had spoken of the virtues OF
Seigeps Syrup for many kinds of all
ments that nothing else seemed able to
help.
Anyway I was sure it would be nc
mistake to try it, and so I got bottle
from Campbell & Co.'S store in this
town. UP to that time I always had a
great feeling of WEAKNESS and drowsi-
ness after eating, and could not shake
it off.
But to my delight soon discovered
that dose of the Syrup dispelled this
almost Immediately, and by the time
had finished the first bottle was great
ly improved.
"As you would suppose, I persevered
in taking the remedy until by degrees
| / got strong again. Gradually, too,
picked up my lost flesh, and recovered
my former good health.
Ever since then I keep a bottle OF
Siegeps Syrup in the house and take a
dose whenever feel out of sorts in any
way.
You may publish this if you like,
and shall always be glad to hear of
SeigePs Syrup doing for others what it
did for me-"
