There is a peculiar indescribable distress in the stomach, a f.eling "hat has been described as a fa nt "all gone" sensation; a sticky slime collects about the teeth, especially in the morning, .accompanied by an unpleasant ta.te. F o.i tai's to satisfy this peculiar faint sensation ; but, on fieco .tiary. it appeus toaggravve the feeling. The eyes are sunken, tinged with yellow ; Ihe ha his and feet become odd and sticky—a cold perspiratio .. Tne 'Offerers feel tired all theti.ua, an 1 sleep does not seem to give rest After a time the patient becomes mrvous and irritah e. gloomy his min I being filled with °vil fore bodinga. When .ising suddenly fro n a racum ent position there is a dizzme s, a whist iog sensation, and he is obii.-ed to grasp something firm to keep from fading. I'he b-vels costive, the skin dry and hot at times ; the blood becoming thick, ao.i stag* nant, and does not circulate properly. After a time ihe patient spits up fond soon after citing,- sometimes in a sour and fermented con lition, som;tim n a sweetish to the taste.

Messm,. White. and- Co .Lon ion Gentlemen,—it is with great pleasure that I add my tes imony to the woirlenui effects of “Seigel’s Syrup.” For years I have been suffering from biious attacks t which began with giildiness ; then a mist would come before my eyes, so that 1 should not be able to recognise anyone, or anything at a distance at a yard or two from my face. Tbis ;wouid be followed by excessive trembling of my knees, so th 11 could not star * without support ; after which a severe heal, ache would occur lasting over two or three days. I have tried various remedies for these distressing symptoms, but-until I tried “ Seigel’a Syrup ” I had nf> relief. Since then I have have had exceenb health ina every respect, and if ever I fe 1 a headache coming oh I take ■ one dose of the Syruo, which arrests it. Hoping that t“.is testimonial may be the means of inducing others (who suffer as. I used) to try tl e Syrup, ns L feel sure ‘.aey will receive speedy benefit and ultimately be C ited, 1 beg to rem.in, yours faithfully, ....... A. H. Hortok. September Bth, 183 d Dear Sir,—l find the sale of Seigel’s Syrup steadily increasing. All who have tried it speaks very highly of its medicinal virtues-: one customer describe-) it as a “Godsend to dyspeptic people.” 1 always recommend it with confidence. ■ Faithfully yours, (Signed) Vincent A. Wills, Chemist-dentist, To Mr A. J, White. Merthyr Tydvil.
