What Mrs Bowles Found Out.

A hard thump on one's head may make it ache, but most headaches come without the aid of thumps or bumps. They are oaused by poisons in the blood acting on >.. the nerves. ** The same is true of pains and lameness in the muscles of the back and sides—iuoluding rheumatism and lumbago. Mrs Mary Bowles will tell us about hers, and how she got over them at last; and a thankful women she is for it. " About ten years ago," she says in her letter, " my back and sides used to ache so bad that I was often perfeotly help ess and prostrate. Sometimes for weeks continuously I oould not raise my hand to any kind of work. - i " For the last thirty-five years I have worked at dairying and farming in this listrict. I am now turned 76 y«-ars old, yr\ am well known throughout the district. " When I first felt the pains in my back and chest I went to a chemist, who gave me a plaster to put on. This relieved me sightly for a day or two ; then the pains were as bad a3 ever. I found out that it was my liver and kidneys that caused the trouble, and was prescribed for Jby three doctors and a ohemist ; but no good came of all they did. " The pains I suffered in trying to pass the seore'ion from the kidneys wttsterriblo ; I could hardy bear them. By this time I | was so bad I didn't know what to do or where to turn for help. What would h»v« bcome of me if it had not been for Mother Seigel's Syrnp I dare not think. " But, as a kind Providence ordained it, I saw an advertisement of a case like mine •ems: cured by this medioine, and I got a '.jtle from a chemist in Mniwellbrook. Flint singe bottle relieved me very much, and by continuing to use the Syrup of the good Mother Seigel I got well. " I cow attend to my work as I did before the complaint came upon me — thank* to this remedy that was brought from England to Australia »here it does such a lot of good. " I keep it a' the time in the house, and always mean to. And when anybody is i!L, among my acquaintances or friends I teMr them to take Mother Seigel's Syrup, for if anything will cure them that will." — Mrs Mary Bowles, Eayuga. near Muswellbrook, N.S.W., Sept. 21st, 1899. .fho character of Mrs Bowles, and the vi'i- 1 oi ihn above s'atemom made by her, is vouched for by Mr C.
