" In July of last year (1894) I read about Mother eigel's Sjrup in a email pamphlet which was left at our house The book des cribed my symptoms perfectly, and Btaed the disease to be indigestion, with duloess and inactivity of the liver, the latter condition a result of the formtr. The weak ness and loss of weight ifc explained, natur ally enough, to be the effect of want of proper nourishment. Cure the stomach trouble in such cases, said an article in the pamphlet, and the consequences will vanish of themße yes.

" On this I procured a bottle of the Syrup from Messrs Robinson and Co , chemists, Hun&let Carr, and after faking it for a few days, I found myself much better. My food now ceased to give me pain, and I gained some strength with every meal. No better proof of the power of this medicine could I a.i!i t _ 1 continued the use of it; the bad syrnptorris abated, and no longer troubled me, and in a few weeks I felfc as vigorous and well as ever I did. I could work as before and experienced that kind of fatigue which promotes reat and is relieved by it, I have since enjoyed good health, and you are welcome to publish thin short account r>f my case. (Signed) Percy Hardaker, 42, Woodhouse Hill Road, Hunslet Oarr, Leeds, March 29,1895."

Mr Hardaker is agent for the Pearl Assur ance Society, and ia well and widely known. Hib own intelligent comments on his com plaint renders any words of ours quite needless. In private conversation he said he looked upon that unnatural " tired " feel ing as a warning that none should neglect. It means, not the effect of work, but of exhaustion through that subtle disease indigestion. Mother Seigel's Syrup should be taken then, as he would have taken it then had he heard of it. We hope Mr Hardaker's timely words, based as they are on an instructive experience, will be heeded by all to whom they apply, i

A Short Talk on Being 1 Tired. — ■ -» ■ Are you a working man, or a working woman? I don't mean oi:e who h so by classification, or by having been born on the sinister side of certain lines of social cleav age, but solely becataae you daily do some sort of real, honest, and useful work ? Yes ? I shake your hand. I hope you manage to live by it without overdoing, and that (be ing a ill hearty and healthy) you sometimes find yourself tired, dog-tired, and hungry as a wolf, with plenty of good feed for supper. Then hey ! for bed and a genuine sleep of eight hours ; to jump from bed in the morn ing, both feet on the fl ior at once. That'a the right kind of •• tired " and the heaven descended brand of rest. It is a blesaing in itself, and bears others in its train. But the variety of fatigue so many people are all the time writing ns about is different. Listen to this one, for instance : "In Sep tember, 1893," he says, "I was overcome by a feeling of languor. I was easily tired and comparatively slight efforts served to ex haust me completely. Indeed I never seemed rested at al!,' and was as tired in the morning as when I went to bed. Both muscles and mind were inert and relaxed. At the same time my appetite seemed to be tired too. I had no relish for food, and after eating felt uneasiness and distress in the stomach and pain at the chest. My skin was sallow also, and there was a dull aching at my right side in the region of the liver. *' I was constantly belching up a sour fluid, anel my food would sometimes 'repeat' or rise into my mouth. All I could do to rectify this miserable state cf things I did, acting upon the suggestion of friends and others, but failed to come across a remedy for my complaint, which meantime ob tained a stronger hold upon me. "Oo account ot my inability to eat anrl digest food my flesh fell oft until I became 80 thin you might have faiicie i me as having gone into a decline. And I was so weak I could scarcely get about. I remained in this condition month after month, unfit, of course, for work and virtually a man out of the world's fight. '• The doctor who prescribed for me pro bably understood my case, but he was not able, apparently, to cure me. And I notice it is in illness as in business; unless one holds his own he is bound to be fulling behind, which made me anxious to obtain relief soon, lest 1 might pa?s beyond the reach of it. And in answer to the hope finally came the help I needed.

JOSEPH LLOYD, June., PROPRIETOR. FTIHE Duke of Wellington carried a tendei .A. beart beneath a stern appearance. He | is said to have been in tears the greater part of the day succeeding his great victory, and pathetic indeed, is the exclamation attributed to him, "Believe me, there is nothing more terrible than a battle won, except a battle lost." But who can describe a man's angei —controlled of course—where, every pre paration having been made for an urgent journey, everything is lost through the horse falling lame; and the man—always the man—is the object of our pity. The horse's unuttered sufferings are rarely thought of, beyond the removal of the shoe (often unskilfully done) and an imprecation upon the blacksmith. The owner oughb to consider his servant's comfort, who, could he speak, would say, " I uttered no com plaint until forced; I used to be treated with greatest consideration and kindness, and a journey was always a pleasure to me when my shoeing was under the persanal care of MR KINGSTON. 2 17 SIiIOATEIK'f t — VfOZK MEOAl;_j rUPI CEYLON &IHOIAN Rom Within the Reach of A3 PURE I "1 /jQi CEYLON i/® PURE ——i BLENDED F EACBPRICE ~y^ AND UP TO [M SOLD BY ALL GROCERS.
