A VOICE FROM AUSTRIA.

Near the village of Zillingdorf, m Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent' arid ndustrious woman whose story of physical suffering an^ final relief, as related by herself is of interest to English woman. " I was employ d," she say*, "m the work of a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retain either foed or drink. I was compelled to take to my bed for several weeks. .Getting a little better from rest aad qut«^, I sought to do some work, but was soon taken with a pa*n m my side, which m a little while seem to spread over my whole Body, and throbbed m my every limb. :This was followed by a cough and shortness of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to my bed for the second, and, as I thought, for the la?t time. My f iends told me that my time had nearly come, and that I could pot live longer than when the trees put on their green once more. Then I happened to get one of the Seigel pamphlets. I read it, and my dear mother bought me a bottle of Seigel's Syrup, which I took exactly according to directions, and I had not taken the whole of it before I felt a great change for the better. My last illness began June 3rd, 1882, and continued to August 9, when I began to take the. Syrup. Very soon I could do a little light work. The couch left me, and I was no more troubled m breathing. Now I am perfectly cured. And oil, .how happy I am ! I cannot express gratitude enough for Siegel's Syrup. Now I must tell you that the doctors m our district distributed handbills cautioning people against the;medicine, telling them it would do them no good, and many were thereby influenced to desiioy the Seigel pamphlets; but now, wherever one is to be found, it is kept like a relic. The few preserved are borrowed to read, and I have lent mine for six miles around our district. People lrve come 18 miles to get me to buy the medicine for them, knowing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right k : nd. I know a woman who was looking like death, and who told them there wasno belp for her, that she had consulted several donors, but none could help her. I told her of Seigers Syrup, and wrote the name down for her that she might moke no mistake,. She took my advice and the Syrup, and now she is m perfect health, and the people around us are amazed. The medicine has made such progress m our neighborhood that people say they don't want the dector any more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who were confined to their bed and could hardly move a finger, have been cured by it, 1 here is a girl m our district who caught a cold by going through some water, and was m bed five years with costiveness and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant. to watch by her. There was not a doctor In the surrounding dis'ricts to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, but every one crossed themse'ves anr said they could not help her. Whenever thr little bell rang which is rung m our place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was fos her, but Seigel's Syrup nnd Pills saved he. life, and now she is as. healthy as anybody, goe to church, and can work even m the fields Everybody was astonished to see her out, knowing how many years she had been m bed. To-diy she adds her gratitude to mine for God's mercies and Siegel's Syrup."
