WHY HE DID NOT GO TO THE HOSPITAL

HE COULD LEAP* THROUGH t^B -- •■--■ AIR.- - ■ ;..-,-,-o-.. ■ more likely to be of use to his fettcnracsettures. To begin, then, you must know I had long been more or less subject to attacks of bronchitis, a complaint thatyou are aware is very sommon and troublesome m Great Britain m krtain seasons of the year. Some months ago I had a very severe turn of it, worse, I think than I ever had before. It was probably, brought on by catching cold, as we all are apt to when we least expect it. Weeks passed by, and my trouble proved to be very obstinate It would not yield to medicine, and as I also began to have violent racking pains m my limbs and back, I became greatly alarmed, 1 could neither eat nor sleep. If I had been a feeble, sickiy. man, I should have thought less strangely of it ; but as, on the contrary, I was hearty and robust I feared some new and terrible thing had got hold of me, which migh) make strength of no avail against it. I say hat was the way I thought. Presently I could not even lie down for the pain all over my body. I asked my doctor what he thought of my condition, and he frankly said, " I am sorry to have to tell you you are getting worse I" This so frightened my friends, as well as myself, that they said, " Thomas, you must go to the Hospital ; it may be your only chance for life 1" But I didn't want to goto the hospital. Who does, when he thinks he can possibly get along I without it ? I am a laboring man, with a large family depending on me for support, and I might almost as well be m my grave as to be laid on my back m a hospital unable to lift a hand lor months, or God only knows how long. Right at this point I had a thought flash' across my mind like a stream of sunshine m a cloudy day. I . had heard and read about Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup, and I resolved, before consenting to be taken to the hospital, I would try that well-known remedy. O^nUys Igave. up the doctor's medicine and began taking the Syrup. Mark the wonderful result I I haej taken but three doses within twenty-four houfs when I was seized with a fit of coughing, and threw up the phlegm and mucus off my chest by the mouthful! The Syrup had loosened and broken it up. Continuing with the Syrup, the raoking pain, which I believe came from the bitter and poisonous humours m my blood and joints, soon left me entirely, and I felt like going to sleep, and I did sleep sound and quiet. Then I felt hungry, with a natural appetite, and as I ate I soon got strong and well; ' ■ •■'. - ! ;: ,. ■*'-;. : - : / felt I could leap through the air -with delight "■ c " --'V '• • ■'■"• In a week I was able to go to my work again. It doesn't seem possible, yet it is true; and the people know it. And, therefore, hsnlsayl preach the good news of the great power of beigel's Syrup to cure pajnand disease far and wide, nobody will wonder at me, :■-•■•.;.•■•. ..■■....-.,- •"•:.. •-;,-.:■ '-■:■> ;' - Thomas Canning 75> Military-road, Canterbury, ' ' ■'"'' ■ \ ' : I: Kent. !: . .'■'■.. .'• ••• ,- .... ..t^ Mother SeigeVs Curative Syrup is for iaj«
