FROM A VETERAN,
As this is jubilee year it tends to make on look back and think of the flight of time, and m this way I am reminded that I am one of the veterans m the sale of your valuable and and successful medicine. I have sold it m England and many parts of Scotland. Well do I remember the first circular you sent out some nine or ten years ago. You had come to England from America to introduce Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, and I was struck by a paragraph m which you used these words : — "Being a stranger m a strange land, I do not . wish the people to feel that I want to take the least advantage over them. I feel that I have a remedy that will cure disease, and I have so much confidence m it that I authorise my agents to refund the money if people should say that they have" not benefitted by its use.'' I fplt at once that you wpuld never say that unless the medicine had merit, and I applied for the agency, a step which I now look back upon with pride and satisfaction. Ever since that time I have found it far the best remedy for Indigestion and Dyspepsia I have met with, and f have sold thousands of bottlei, It has never failed m W y c ».e where
there were any of the following symptoms :— Nervous or sick headache, sourness of the sstomach, rising of the food alter eating, ense of heaviness and fulness, dizzines bad breath, slime and mucus on the gums and teeth, constipation, and yellowness of the eyes and skin, dull and sleepy sensations, ringing m the ears, heartburn, loss of appetite, and, m short, wherever there are signs that the system is clogged, and the blood is out of order. Upon repeated inquiries, covering a great variety of ailments^ my customers have always answered, "I am better," or " I am perfectly well." What I have seldom or never seen before m the case of any medicine is that people tell each other of its virtues, and those who have been been cured say to the suffering : " Go and get Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, it will make you well." Out of the hundreds of cures I wifl name one or two that happen to come into my mind. ■ ' il
