How to Grow Rich.
«——~_ In this sordid world the man who lacks 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 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 not 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 Syrnp. 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, Castlereagb Street, Sydney, N S W, on 27th July July, 1903. "I 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, aud 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 by 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 relief. But I am,glad to say that the experiment proved a complete success. The Syrup seemed to go direct to the seat of my trouble, for before "the first bottle was emptied I had made a long stride towards recovery. Four bottles were sufficient to complete my cure. And 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 punishment. So complete has been my cure, I 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 yearsfor 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 fool comes out; ahead o£ 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 have it speak ashighly as Mr Alberts. •■'"
