wilO IS MOTHER SBTGEL. She is a lady, who by the merest accident has made a mo^t v tiuablt discovery, and she is creating the wi'dcst --nthi'siasm all over the coun'ry, and «vetybody is talking about her and asking WHAT IS MOTHER SEIGEL'S REPUTATION? And she tells them to read the thousands oi tteri, something like .the following from Mr Perkins : — A WONDERFUL TESTIMONIAL. "Grove Pharmacy, Haling, W. f Jan 2, 88 . *' Your medicine must be the mosi wonder* M discover , for during my experience of more than twenty years, I nevtr knew any proprietary or patent medicine m B'ith Universal favour and demand. It i-: simply extraordinary, and if I were to send you an account of every statement made to me m its favour, you would have to publish a separate book to contain my testimonials alone. (Signed) " Thomas J. Perkins." And then people ask— WHAT DOES MOTHER SEIGEL DO GIVES RELIEF AT ONCE. • • 59, Bloomfteld road, FluAstead, - "Jan. 7, 1885. 41 1 find the sale of your medicines increases every year, and everyone spe<ks well o r them that \ries them. I know a lady tht at en ed the Female Hospital m Soho-square for so.ne ttj»nihs, with pains m back and side, and biiois, and could t ke no food, but got no benefit from any of the n.e^ic nea they g ye her. Before she had taken all the comets of o«-e bottle of your syrap she felt relief, and is now quite well. (Signed) "W. K. BakeK." THE EFFECT WAS MARVELLOUS. "M-dical Hall, Bangor, Jan. 5. 1885. "I hear people constantly speaking very highly^of Seigel s Syrup. There is a case ol a young married lady m Anglesey who had been suffering from stomach as'hma for a l'»t>g period, who had consulted some of the best physicians of 'he day, but without deriving any benefit She was «laily getting wor c, but at last a friend persuaded her to try Seiyel's s» rup. She procured a bottle, and the effect was marvellous; sherapd'y improved, a n d now sh- is as strong and heaLhy as c -er she h>i bern. (Signed) " H. Lloyd-Jones." Wt AT IS MOTHER S -IGE' GOOD FOR? COBS NOT RESTORE THE DEAD, BUT SAVES TIIR LIVING. Mr J. W. Savilt.. of Dunmow, Essex, writes,— September, 1884:—"! introduced your medicines in'o Punmow almost as soon as they were brought oul m London. T sold m a short time eighteen pounds' wonh. 1 havekr.->wn many gran'J cases <>f t.erruanenl cures; and, as yet, no case of f 1 lure. Not< wit stinding many competitors, Mothei Seigel's Syrup holds it • own ground. I be> lieve it a good medicine— it will not restor* the dead to life, but it appears to save th< living from dying. A CASE OF GRAVEL CURKD.' '• Feltham, fan. 6. 1885. "It has Jal ways given me pleasure to re commend your medicines *.o my customers, and the results, of their use have irvariabj been most satisfactory. I rould furnish yot many testimonials. t»ne case just now occur; to my mind. A c >nstablc of the police forc< of ooting, S. W,, where ' for many yean had a shop, was \ paiient of mine, sufifcr-nr. from a bad attack of ravrl. He was per suaded to try 'Mother Seigel's -yrap. H< purchased a bo'tle at my nhip, an 1 by t*-< time he had taken half of it he reported him stf to me as quite cured. The effect wai simply miraculous. (bigned) '*J. D. Floranck." IS MOTHER SEIGEL RELIABLE? Would respectable chemists write like th( oliowing if not ? SURGICAL OPKRATI-N AVERTED. "Ticehurst, l>ec.. 1884. Mr Edward Copkk. Chemist, writes :- " Your me iciae maintains a steady sale ir this district, and is well established m genera favor. I know an od mm, over seventy who some three or foui years ago was auvisec to submit to the operui n for stone. Hi certain'y was suffering from some dstresrinj Symptoms, and could scarcely walk. Inst>-a< of taking that advice he tried -eigePs Syrup with the result that, aftrr one bottle, he coulc walk about fairly well, and, bavin? takei three or four 2s 6i butt es, he wai completelj cured. He is sii 1 about, hale and hearty foi hi* years. If any of the symptoms of tLe ole trouble come on t he takes, a few doses of th< Syrup, aad'all is well again." WHAT PEOFLE SAY ABOUI MOTHEI SEIGEL.
