The Glory of Man.

The crown and glory of manhood is strength— power. . All human conquests hare been won by it; individual and collftotive. The earliest sign of decay in ! man is not usually pain, but weakness ef some kind -of mind or body, or both. This may be inevitable sequence of advanced years, or it may. as we all know, show itself at any period of life. But it always means that the sources of strength

are failing, as the lessening of the water ixa a river means a drying up of the spring*! and streams which feed it. I said " source* " of strength, using the plural word. I should have, said " source" of strength, for in human beioge there is bat one. What is it? Perhaps the experience of Mr Darid Jones will help iw to an answer. " In the summer of 1891," he says, "I began to feel ill and oat of sorts. I wan weak and tired, and quite worn oat with little exertion. I had a poor appetite, and after eating had pain and weight fit tho che«t. My secretions were scanty and thick. My back felt stiff, and gave mo muoh pain as I moved about Forthtftfl years I suffered like this, being at tfiwafl $, better and worse. I consulted a • %#*, who gave me medioines and recbmmendixl Turkish baths ; bat I got no better for any kind of treatment. " My brother then told me about Mothißt Seigel'a Curative Syrup, bat I had no {a|ih in advertised medioines* He,hdwever, urged me to take it, and after taking f few I 'doles I experienced somach relief that I continued with it, and. was soon strong and, well as ever. Since that time I take a &*<& of this remedy when I feel at all ailing, aiia it sets me right. I have praised Jfotiber Seigel'a Syrup to all my mends, miny of whom have tried it and bsen benefited by it. Tour can publish this statement as you like. (Signed) David Jones, 1, -ft; Dunluce Street, Walton, Liverpool, Joly ' 31st, 1896-" We have -room for one more short -letter before we try to come at the answer to iba question with which we set dot. It is exactly in the same line, and ought to make the results of our inquiry nil the more clear and plain. "In the spring of 1888," proceeds ths writer, "my health began to fail me. I felt languid and heavy, as if Mtnttbiiag bad come over me. I had a bad tant« in the mouth, my appetite wto poor; iWidilßlle little food I took' gave me pain AeroW I( 'tllie chest and between the shoulders. My food lay like lead on my stomach. I was oo;n---stantly spitting tip thick phlegm, and when in bed heavy stoeaU came ever me. - t|;o* weaker and weaker, and from time to time was confined to bed. Often I was so bud I could not dress or undress myself. 11 Now better now worse, but nevtr. tr«tl I suffered for. over five years. I took different kinds of medicines, and had a doctor, but got no real benefit from any thing. "In July, 1893, a book was Uftut lay house in which I read of oases lik# ''tarn* having been cured by Mother flfiiga'a Syrup. I got a bottle from the International Tea Company, Teovil, and beftflra taking it. In a short time I felt benefit, and, by continuing with with it gained strength. I could eat better, food agroivd with me, and by-and-by I was strong end well. But for Mother Seigel's Syrup I Iflieve I should not now be alive. Ton aro at liberty to publish this statement. (Signed) (Mrs) James Brouoh, 72, Httlfih, Teovil, November 28th, 1895." What then, do these eases show to he ibe source of strength? The answer is Digested Food. That and nothing e'fl*. all strength, of body or of mind, oottuan from that, and that only. What, then, is the great enemy of strength, the fountain .-■• of weakness? Indigestion— dyspepsia- 4 You see why and how, A child could soft miss the argument. What, then, restores strength? Mother Siegel's Syrup. In what way? By setting the digestive machinery in healthy operation. That is what it did for our correspondents and does daily for multitudes. Use it 'if 'jog noed it, and pass the news to other weak onef. _ s Both deaf and dumb they said he was, Because he could not hear or speak. He'd simply lost bis voice, that's all, His head bunged up for just a week ; But now he hears the least thing drop, Se speaks in accents strong and pure. To say that he'd be*>n dead ere this, Except for Woods' Great Peppermint <Ju*s.
