The Bottom Principle.

Nothing "merly happens so." Always keep that fact where you can see it: Whatsoever comes to pass has an adequa e cause right behind it. I don't say this as though it were a new discovery. Not a bit. It ia the bottom principle of ail knowledge. But we are apt to forget it— that's the point ; we forget it, and so have a lot of trouble there's no need to have. Here is Miss Esther May, whom we are glad to hear from, and to know. In the matters set forth in" her short letter she speaks, not for herself only, but for twothirds of the women in England. "In July, 1890," she says, "I had an attack of Influenza, which left me in a weak, exhausted condition. I feH languid i and tired. Everything was a trouble to me. The good appetite that is natural to me was gone ; and when I did take a little food it Rave me a dreadful pain in the chest. There was also a strange sensation in my stomach. I felt as if I had eaten too much whin perhaps I had scarcely eaten anything. "Then, after a time, I began to have a dry, backing cough, and to break out in cold, clammy sweats. Not very long afterwards my ank'e3 began to puff up and j i swell, so that when I stood on my feet it was very painfu l . j "I gradually got worse, and worse. The medicines given me by the doctors seemed to have no effect. I lost flesh, like one in consumption, and I feared I should never be any better. "In March, 1893, a gentleman told me about Mother Seigel s Curative Syrup and said he believed it would help me. Although I had no faith in it I sent for the Syrup, and began taking it. One bottle relieved me and gave me some appetite. I ate and enjoyed my food as I had not done for years. I gained strength every day. " I am now as healthy and hearty as I ever was in my life, and I owe it to Mother Seigel's Syrup. (Signed) Esther May, Buckingham Road, North-fleet, Kent, September Bth, 1893." " In the Spring of 1887," writes another correspondent, "my wife got into a low state of health. She complained at first of feeling tired and weary, and cou'd not do her work as U3ual. Her mouth tasted badly ; she couldn't eat and she had a deal of pain in her chest and back. " Later on her legs began to swell, 'and soon the swelling extended to her body. With all this her strength failed more and more, until she could just go about tha house in a feeble fashion, and that was all. No medical treatment did more than to relieve her, as you may fay, for the moment. " This was her condition wh n Mother Seigel's Syrup first came under our notice. We read of it ia a book that was left at our house. After she had taken the Syrup onlv a few days she was decidedly better. And, to conclude, by a faithful use of the medicine the swelling went down, her appetite came back, and she wan soon as well and strong as ever. Seeing wha*. the Syrop had done for my wife, I began to <a l e it for indigestion and dyspepsia, which had troubled nie for yenrs ; and it. completiey cured me. (Signed) J. Heath, Orofava House, Alpha Road, Cambridge, June 15ih, 1893." We were speaking of nothing happening without a cause. The cause of all the sufferirg of these two women was one and the same — indigestion and dyspepsia. Men have it often enough, but this disease h especially the bano of women— with chronic constipation as one of its worst features. His the cause of nearly all the HN and ailments they suffer from.. LH every women g«?t the book which Mr H°aih speaka of and lesrn all about it. They can thus find out what thn first symptoms are, and take Mo her Seigel's Syup the veiy day they appear.
