Mother and Daughter.

It is remarkable how greatly our estimate - of ourselves and our qualities differs from the estimate formed of utf by others. If the thing were practicable, many folks would realise heavily by selling themselves at their own valuation (if they could find customers), and afterwards buying them(elves back on the basis of other people’s notion of their worth. The more numerous and the harder the blows aimed at our ulf-oonceit in the days of our youth, the better for u«. They pulverise, as it were, the worser part of our nature, and nothing survives the process but what deserves to endure. 41 Ind what are you ? ” asked a Lori Chief Justice of England of a witness who had just given some rambling and discreditable evidence. " I employ my self as a surgeen,” said the witness. "But dees anyone else employ you as a surgeon ? Ace you a surgeon ? ” asked the judge. And the witness collapsed. It is claimed for all medicines that they (Sect cares, though the fact is that some do and some do not. Mother Seigel’s Cnrative Syrup has been very extensively Used for thirty-five years, and is to day the principal domestic medicine in sixteen different countries. .The number of cures it has affected (especially among persons Buffering from indigestion and bilious disease) is quite incalculable. Of the many thousands of testimonials as to its efficacy voluntarily given, here is an interesting one from a mother and daughter. "For several years,” writes Mrs Hutchison, of Newcastle Road, Jesmond. N.S.W., on October 19th, 1902. " I • suffered agonies from indigestion and liver complaint.' I oeuld neither eat, sleep, nor work-rin fact, did not know what it was to enjoy a single hour of freedom from pain. I was attended by two of the cleverest medical men in the Newcastle district, but their treatment failed to bring mo any re'ief. Indeed, I went steadily downhill, and began to fear that my case was beyond the aid of medicine. I grew weakly and thin, and became dejected, when, two years ago, I was advised to try what Mother S igal’s Curative Syrup could do for me. It was a happy decision, for before I had taken a quarter of the first bolt’e my health was ranch improved. I continued to take the medicine according to the directions for five weeks, by the end of which time I was cured. The cure is evidently a permanent one, lor I have remained well and sound to the present day.” This is a good testimony—testimony to be proud of. But it don’t • stop here. Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup not only cured Mrs Hutchison of her indigestion and liver complaint, but in the case of > her daughter Agnes, arrested the progress ■ u| an insidious and dangerous malady Which, if allowed to range unchecked, might have had la's! results. Here is Mr* HutobiMn’i own description of ber

daughter’s case: "My daughter'” she says, " was in a very bad way, She was a suffering from severe nervous debility. She wasted away to a skeleton, and appeared to have no blood in her body. She was so weakly that she could not walk without assisstauoe, and was often com-, pehed to keep to bed for days together. The doctors seemed to be much in the | dark as to her ailment, and as impotent' in treating her case as they had been in their treatment of mine, so I determined to j experiment on her with the medicine which , had proved such a boom to rayseif. The '■ result was that within two months a few i bottles of Mother Seigel’s Curative Syrup | changed her from a helpless invalid into a hearty, healthy, happy girl. She remains as well as one could wish her to be.”
