How to Grow Rich.

In this sordid world the man who laoks the instinct for trade can never become wealthy. Extraordinary ability in art, literature, or science will at best obtain for its possessor no more than a comfortable competence* Probably.there will never be a time when the combined possessions of the greatest i painter, writer, and scientist will not be exceeded by the fortune of a single merchant.

These reflections induce one to ask, What are the qualities essential to a successful trader?

To fully answer that question would need more space than this newspaper contains; but it may be said right here, without hesitation, that the first essential-in a merchant is sound health. Those two simple words include the qualities'of industry and cheerfulness. These are hot the only qualities needful for success in trading, but they are the principal ones. To enjoy sound health a man must digest his food properly. A very few—about one in a thousand—do so perfectly. They are the-most fortunate people in the world. But to vast numbers of men and women digestion is impossible without the aid of Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. Of these, a section have either not heard of, or from some other cause have failed to try, that grand remedy; and so continue to suffer, and fail of success in all they attempt—a strange thing when one considers that Mother Seigel's Syrup has been for thirty-five years the unrivalled cure for indigestion in the sixteen principal countries of the world.

." I suffered terribly from indigestion, with its usual train of horrors, for fully three years," wrote Mr Charles Alberts, of 193, Oastlereagb Street, Sydney, N S W, on 27th July July, 1903. «1 had no appetite, but loathed the very sight and smell ot food, '"• I could not sleep, and was always restless, irritable, and nervous. I consulted various doctors at different stages of my illness, and took a number of medicines without obtaining any, good result, finally, I became so Weak and dispirited that I had to give up my employment. About twelve months ago, while in this wretched condition, I happened to read an advertisement. describing a case of indigestion very similar'-.-''to- mine, which had been cured Mother Seigel' s Syrup. After some consideration, I decided to give, that remedy a trial—more, I confess, as an experiment than from any real expectation of re.ief. But lam glad to say that the experiment proved a complete success. The Syrup seemed to' go direct to the seat of mytrouble,'. for before the - first bottle was emptied I bad made a long stride towards recovery. Four bottles were sufficient tp complete my cure. Asid now, owing entirely, to Mother Seigel's Syrup, I can sleep well at night, do a fair day's work without feeling unduly fatigued, and eat ordinary food with! relish, unspoiled by a dread of after punish ment. ' So'complete has been my cure,il could now desire nothing better than that all the world may know it ; for doubtless there are many people still in the miserable condition that once was mine to whom Seigel's Syrup could bring health and ease; as it has done to me.

In these days of fierce and ever increasing competition,: when all men are - in. haste to grow rich—to make their pile so as to allow at least a margin of ten years for its enjoyment before passing over to the great majority, to suffer from indigestion is a fatal handicap. : No amount of natural ability will neutralise it/ In life's battle, a healthy tool comes put ahead of a clever dyspeptic. And it is no more than natural that such should be the case. - Fortunately, nature and modern science have provided the remedy, a remedy of which all who havetried itspeak as highly as Mr Alberts.
