, ▲ vljUjltx cut zirorviiroAi; _ , +. It v for this reason that an assertion like the following sticks np above the dead level of our stapid talk, and becomes noticeable : * When I saw bow pale I had grown, I said to myself, it was because something had gone out of my blood.' There 1 that is a statement with the seeds of an idea m it. Suppose we follow it up by ? tooting the rest of the letter which contains t« . , ■ . In December, 1890, says the writer, • I fell Into a poor state of health. I was tired, languid, and weary without any apparent eauae. My appetite left me, and all food, ever the lightest and simplest kinds, caused the great pain m the chest; and stomach. When I saw how pals I had grown I said to myself it was because something had gone out of my blood. ' Then my sleep was broken, and night after night I scarcely closed my eyes. It wasn't long before I became so weak and dejected that I took no interest m things around me. I wasso nervous that oommon sounds annoyed and worried me ; even the noises made by my own children m their t&lk and at their pl*y. 'There waa a disgusting t&Bte m my mouth; it made me sick, and often gave me a shiver* ing sensation all over. When I saw others '"eating and enjoying their meals I felt as though it were a strange thing ; m a way I wondered how they could do it. For myself I could eat hardly anything. Food went •gainst me, and I turned away from it, as one turns away from smells or sights that are offensive. And yet I knew, what everyone knows that without sufficient food the body languishes and weakens. And such was the <c»se with me as month after month went by. * During all this time, so full of pain and discouragement. I was attended by a doctor who did what he could to relieve me, but without success, I do not say he did not understand my complaint; for may he not have understood it without having the means of ouring it. The answer to the lady's question is : Yes easily enough. All intelligent, studious doctors ' understand ' consumption, cholera, cancer, etc., without (as yet) having the means of ouring them. There is usually a wide gap between the discovery of a want and the way to supply it. 'I will now,' continues the letter * tell you bow I oame to be cured. In April, 1891, 1 read m a small book or pamphlet about Mother SeigeVa Syrup. The book said the Syrup was a certain remedy for alt diseases of the stomach, indigestion m every form, dyspepsia ; and it also said that moßt of """ the complaints we suffer from are caused by that. On looking over the symptoms des- cribed m the book, and comparing them , with my own, I saw plainly that my ailment was dyspepsia, * We sent immediately for a bottle of this medicine, and after taking it a few days I began to feel better. In a very short time, < by keeping on with the Syrup according to the directions, I could .eat without pain or distress^'and digest ray; food. I also slept soundly and naturally. Then my strength came back and with it the color to my face. In short, after a few weeks use of Mother Seigel'p Syrup, I was hearty and strong as ever. And I should be indeed ungrateful if I were not willing that others should have the benefit of my experience* You ate therefore free to print my letter if you think it will- be useful. (Signed) (Mrs) M. Truran, Marten, Lincoln, April 24, 1895/ I simply desire to say to' Mrs Truran that her idea about the blood is a perfectly correct «ne« , All our food (the digestible part of it) is turned into blood, and m that shape it feeds the entire body. When the blood gets thin and poor (lacking m nourishment), we . lose flesh and grow feeble and pale. And the oause of the blood getting thin and poor is indigestion, or dyspepsia. How easy this is tq understand when once you get hold of the right end otit. Mother Seigel's Syrup has the peculiar power to oorreot what is wrong •bout thedigestion, and thus enables the di- gestive machinery to make good rich blood. Which is life ana health and beauty.
