AWOMAN'S SUFFERING AND GRATITUDE.
A VOICE FROM Near the village of ZilfingdorfAn Lower -Austria, Uvea Maria Haas, an /intelligent •-and industrious woman whose story of physical suffering and final relief, as related ! ty herself, is of interest to English women. ■*• I was •employed,” she says, “ in the work ■of a large farmhouse. Overwork brought ■on sick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retain either food or drink, 'I was compelled to take to my bed tor • several weeks. Getting a little better from - rest and quiet, I sought to do some work, ■bnt was soon taken with a pain in my side, ; which in a little while seemed to spread over my whole body, and throbbed in my every limb. This was followed by a cough and a shortness of breath, until finally I coaid not sew, and T took to my bed for a second '* time, and, as I thought, for •fee last time. -MyTriends told me that my time had "nearly come, and that I could not live .longer than when the trees put on their •green once more. Then I happened to get -one of the Seigel pamphlets. I read it, and __*ay4§ar mother bought me a bottle of Seigel’s Symp, which I took exactly ac--cording to directions, and I had not taken the whole of it before I felt a great change •lot the better. My last illness began June •3rd, 1882, and continued to August 9th, when I began to take the Syrup, Very aeon I could do a little fight work. The •cough left me, and I was no more troubled in breathing, 'Now I am perfectly cured. And oh, how happy 1 am 1 I cannot express gratitude enough for Seigel’s Syrup. Now 1 must tell you that the doctors in our dis■strict distributed handbills cautioning against the medicine, telling them at would do them no good, and many were •hereby influenced to destroy the Seigel pamphlets; but now, wherever one is tone found, it is kept like a relic. The few pre- ; servedare borrowed to read, and I have :lent mine for six miles round our district. .(People have come eighteen miles to get me I to buy the medicine for them, knowing "that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind, t know a woman who was -looking like death, and who told them there •was no help for her, that she had consulted •■several‘doctors, bnt none could help her. 1 itold her of Seigel’s Symp, and wrote the ®*me down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the •Syrup, and now she is in perfect health, and fee people around ns are amazed. The .medicine has made snch progress in our •neighbourhood that people say they don’t want the doctor any more, but they take the Symp. Sufferers from gout who were •confined to their bed and conld hardly move * finger, have been cured by it. There is a girl in our district who caught a cold by foing through some water, and was in bed vo years wife costiveness and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch by her._ There was not a doctor in ■the surrounding districts to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, bnt everyone crossed themselves and said they could not help her. Whenever the little bell rang which is rung in our place -when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, cut Seigel’s Symp and Pills saved her fife, and now she is as healthy as anybody, goes to church, and can work .even in fee fields. Everybody was as» toniehed when they saw her out, knowing how many years she had been in bed. To< day she adds her gratitude to mine for iQod’s mercies and Seigel’s Syrup.” Marta Haas. The people of England speak confirming the above. AFTER MANY YEARa , , “ Whittle-le-Woods, uearChorley, “ December 26th, 1883. ■'‘Dear Sir.—Mother Seigel’s medicine tells exceeding well with us, all that try it Speak highly in its favour.
