WHY AM I SO MISERABLE?

So weak and ]angu ; d ? 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 again such disrelish for food ? Why is the mind so frequently irritable, dcspondii.g, melancholy and dejected? Why does one often feel under the apprehension of some imaginary :langer, and start at any unexpected noise, becoming agitated as though some great calamity was impending? Whit is the meaning of these dvl 1 , sick headaches ; these violent palpitations of the heart, this feverish restlessness, the.«e ni^ht sweats ; this di turbed and dreamy sleep, which brings no refreshing rest, but enly moanings and muttering*, and '.he harrors of the nightmare? The answer is : These are but the symptoms of Indigestion or Dyspepsia -the beginning and the forerunner of almost every other human dissase. Indigestion is a. weakness or want of power of the digestive fluids of the stomach to conver. the food into healthy matter for the proper nourishment of the body. It is caused most frequently by the irregularity of diet, or improper food, w.int of healthy exercise and pure outdoor air. It may be induced by mental distress — the sho. kof some great cajamity. It may be, and often is, .aggravated and intensified, if not oricinally brought on, by exhaustion from intense mental application, of physical overwork, domes' ic troubles, anxiety m business, or financal cmbavassmtnts. If the stomach could a' ways b i kept m order, dca'.h would no longer be a subject of fearful anxiety to the young and middle-aged, but what would be contemplated by all as the visit of an expected friend at the close of a. peaceful and huppy old a^e. However, ,the./irst ho-tile invader upon the domain . of'jiealth and happiness is Indigestion. Is there any relief, any remedy, any cure ? That is the question of the sufle'ing and unhappy dyspeptif. What is wanted is a medicine that will thoroughly renovate the stomach, bowels, liver, and kidneys, and afford speedy and effectual ass's ance to the digestive organ", and re>tore to the nervous and muscular system? their original energy. Such a medicine is happily a', hind. cvrr m the history of medical discoveries, evidenced by a d zen years' thorough test, has i here been found a remedy for Indigestion so .ipeedy, so sure, and so surprising m its results as Sci^el's Curative Syrup, but today it ij a stand rd remedy frr that alnio t universal affliction m <Tcry civilised country m Europe, As»a, Africa and, America. Public testimonials at-d private letters from militnry officers, bankcis, mcrchan's, ship captains, mechanics, farmers, ar.d theit wives and daughters, alike confirm Its curative powers.
