WUO IS MOTHER SEIGEL. She is a lady, who by the merest" acctdent Itas made a mo*t viiuabk discovery, and' she is creating the wildest enthusiasm all over the Cbun'ry, and «ycrybody is talking about her and asking . i WHAT IS MOTHER SKIGEL'S REPUTATION? And she tells them to fad the thousands o! tteK, something Uke.the following from Mr Perkins :— A WONDRRFUL TESTIMONIAL. 11 Grove Pharmacy, Baling," W., Jan z, 188*;. "Your medicine must be the most wonder* ml discover', for during my experience of more than twenty years. I nev«.r knew any proprietary or patent niedicino m > such universal favour and demand. It is simply exrraordintry, and if I were to send you an account of every statement made to me m its fatour, 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. Bloomfield road, Flutastead, " Jan. 7, 1885. " I find the sale of your medicines increases every year, and everyone spe iks well of them that tries them. I know a lady th ;t at en ed the Female Hospital m Soho-square for some months, with pain 3 m back and side, and bi.ious, and could t'kc no food, but got no benefit from any of the medicines they g^ve her, Before she had taken all the contents of O"e bottle of your syrup she felt reli-f, and is now quite welL (Signed) "W. K. Bakeh." THE EFFKCT WAS MARVELLOUS. "M.dical Hall, Bangor, Jan. 5. 1885. "I hear people constantly speaking very highly of Sergei's Syrup. There is a case of a young married lady m Anglesey who had been suffering from stomach as'hma for a long period, who had consulted some of the best physicians of 'he day, but without deriving any benefit. She was daily getting wor c, but at last a friend persuaded her to try Seed's syrup. She procured a bottle, and the effect was marvellous ; she rap dly improved, and now ah* is as strong and healihy as c-er she h-s been. „ (Signed) "H. Lloyd.Jones." WjhAT IS MOTHFR Sr.IGE» GOOD FOR? J)689 NOT RESTORE THE DEAD, BUT SAVES THK LIVING. Mr J. W. Saviu.. of Dunmow, Essex, writes,— -September, 1884:— "I introduced your medicines in'o Dunmow almost as soon as they were brought out m London. I sold In a short time eighteen pounds' wcth. I have known many grand cases of permanent Cures ; and, as yet, no case of fa lure. Not' wit standing many competitors, Mother Seigel's Syrup holds it* own ground. I be- lieve it a goad medicine— it will not restore the dead to life, but it appears to save the living from dying. A CASE OF GRAVEL CURID.I "Feltham, [an. 6. 1885. "It has Jftl ways given me pleasure to re« commend your medicines *.o my customers, and the results of their use have irvariah'y been most satisfactory. I rould furnish you many testimonials. < ne case just now occurs to my mind. A c mstablc of the police force of 'ooting, S. W., where 1 for many years had a shop, wa« * patient of mine, suffering from a bad attack of gravel. He was per- -Buaded to try • Mother Seigel's c yrdp. He purchased a bottle at my shop, and by the time he had taken half of it he reported him- se fto me as quite cured. The effect was simply miraculous. (Signed) "J. D. FLORANCS." IS MOTHER SEIGEL RELIABLE? Would respectable chemists write like the ollowing if not ? SURGICAL OPIRATI'N AVERTED. "Ticehurst, Dec.. 1884. MR EdW/vRD Copkk. Chemist, writes :— 11 Your me icine maintains a steady sale m this district, and is well established m general favor. I know an o d man, over seventy, who some three or foui years ago was auvised to submit to the operati nf »r stone. He certainly was suffering from som : distressing symptoms, and could scarcely wtlk. Instead of taking that advice he tried eigel's Syrup, with the result that, after one bottle, he could walk about fairly well, and, having taken three or four as 61 bott es, he v/m completely cured. He is su'l about, hale and hearty for his years. If any of the symptoms of tie old trouble come on, he takes a few doses of the Syrup, aad all is well again." WHAT PEOFLE SAY ABOUI MOTHER SEIGEL. AN EXPERIENCE Of FORTY YEARS. " Cosham, Hants, Jan. 2, 188$. "My customers, ever a wide country dis< trict, are not very demonstrative, and I have no written testimonials tp send ; bat verbal admiration o* your medicine is m the a6cend< ant, and my experience of forty years assures me that no other preparation has so rapidly acquired a popularity, and so firmly main' tains its reputation as Mother Seirel's Syrup.
