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 again such disrelish for food ? Why is the mind so frequently irritable, desponding, melancholy and dejected ? Why does one often feel under the apprehension of some imaginary danger, and start at any unexpected noise, becoming agitated as though some great calamity was impending? What it the meaning of UJese dull, sick headaches ; these violent palpitations of the heart, this feverish restlessness, these night sweats ; this disturbed and dreamy sleep, which brings no refieshing rest, but enly moanings and rrmltej ings, and <he h3rroi s of the nightmare ?
The answer is : These are but the symptoms of Indigestion or Dyspepsia — the beginning and the forerunner of almost every other huraan disease. Indigestion is a weakness or want of power of the digestive fluids of tha stomach to convert 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, want of healthy exercise and pure outdoor air. It may be induced by mental distress — the sho: kof some great calamity. It may be, and often is, aggravated and intensified, if not originally brought on, by exhaustion from intense mental application, of physical overwork, domes 1 ie troubles, anxiety m business,
Such a medicine is happily at hand. JS'ever m the history of medical discoveries, evidenced by a dozen years' thorough test, has there been found a remedy for Indigestion so speedy, so sure, and so surprising m its results as Seigel's Curative Syrup, but to-day it is a standard remedy fcr that almost universal affliction m every civilised country m Europe, Asia, Africa and, America. Public testimonials and private letters from military officers, bankers, merchants, ship captains, mechanics, farmers, and their wives and daughters, alike confirm Its curative powers.
