WHY AM I SO MISERABLE ?
So weak and languid? Why such heartburns and pains m the stomach, such acidity, and such an unpleasant taste m the mouth ? Why at times such a gnawing appetite, and then Pgain such disrelish for food ? Why is the mind so frequently irritable, desponding, melancholy and dejected? Why docs one often feel under the apprehension of some imaginary danger, and start at any unexpected noise, becoming agitated as though some great cabmity was impending ? What is the meaning of these dull, sick headaches ; these violent palpitations of the heart, this feverish restlessness, these night sweats ; this di-turbed and dreamy sleep, which brings no refreshing rest, but enly moanings and muttcrings, nnd 'he h3rrois of the nightmare ? The answer is : These arc but the symptoms of Indigestion or Dyspepsia— the beginning and the forerunner of almost every other human disease. Indigestion is a weakness or want of power of the digestive fluids of the stomach to convert the food into healthy matter for the proper nourishment of the body. It is caused most frequently by the irreg"lari'y of die*, or improper food, want of healthy exercise and pure . outdoor nir. It may be induced by mental distress — the sho kof some great calamity. It may be, and often is, aggravated and intensified, if not oricinally brought on, by exhaustion from intense mental application, of physical overwork, domes' ie troubles, anxiety m business, or financ'al embarasunciUs. If the stomach could always b » kept m order, dea'.h would no longer bo a sulject of fearful anxiety to the jourg and middle-aged, but what would be contemplated by nil ns the visit of on expected friend at the close of a peaceful and happy old ace. However, the first ho..tileinvader upon the domain of health nnd happiness is Indigestion.
Is there any relief, any remedy, any cure? That is the question cf the suffeiinp and unhappy dyspeptic, What is wanted is a medicine that will thoroughly renovate the stomach, bowels, liver, and kidneys, and afford speedy and effectual ass's'ancc to the digestive organ*, and restore to the nervous and muscular systems their original energy. Such a medicine is happily at hand. Never m the history of medical discoveries, evidenced by a dczen years' thorough test, has. iherc been found a remedy for Indigestion fo speedy, so sure, and so surprising m itsicswlts as Seigcl's Curative Syrup, but to-day it is a standard remedy frr that almost universal affliction m (vcy c'viliscd country m Europe, Asa, Africa and, America. Public testimonials and ptivatc letters from military cffi:crs, bankers, merchants, ship captains, mechanics, farmers, ard their wive* and daughters, alike confirm Its curative powers.
