MISS MRGRET HAVE f O' SYDNEY TELLS GRAPH If! ALLY IN A LETTER HOW JOY OVERCAME HER DESPAIR. There is no joy like the joy of being ngain in perfect health after you have been dlsab'ed, so to speak, by the pains and after-effects of n long, tedious illness. That is the dominating no to struck in a letter written on December 7th, 1901, by Mi'S Margar -I. Raven, of 127, Quay street, Ultimo, Sydney, in weich she most graphically describes her pains, and the wearing, wearying effects of tire disease that, in the form of indigestion, tortured her for years, and then the happiness that has come over her since her release from ad these miseries. “REACHING THE BOTTOM RU.N’O.” In her letter she says " I don l think anyone in the world has suffer, d more crno'ly from indigestion than I hers. For years it poisoned my existence, b ott d Ml the harpiness and sunshine out of my life and brought me to the very thresho’d of ,■ he "rave It would Tike a whole ream of foolscap to describe all the pains, nch s, symptoms and miseries it occasioned me at one time or another. I was weak, thin, pale, and nerveless, nnabm to eat, sleep, work or enjoy any of the pleasures of s 'cinty. Thiswa- wh-nl was residing at Hyd l Park, Adelaide, South ustra ia, o f which city lam a native. I was attended at diff rent ti es by quite a number of im-dica 1 men, but my case kept on goin from bad to worse. lu the end I could retain nothing on my stomach, and the mere sight o: food often made nr rc.ch and vomit. The straining from this cause fro quenlly brought on a bleeding from the luo«s which I thought was a sur indication of consumption, I bad reached th ■, bo-tom rung of the laid rof life, think two y-. ars back, when on a friend’s advice I began to take Moth, v Seigei’s Syrup.” •< ni- a i-iuexi>s Ann jr>nvEfj,Ew.” That is the end of the firs phase of Miss Raven's rein nkablo story. Now link the jub'Pant feeling with which she describes die action :>f the wonderful cure which brought back the sunlight into her existence- —“To my great joy Mother Seigd’s Syrup proved to bo quite as good as my friend had represented it to bo. From the first it enabled me to retain my food, and within a couple of weeks it, created quite an appetite, a thing I had not possessed for years previously. “'l felt like a better and brighter being. Instead of moping about the couse, dull, dcjectid and listles., I was soon able to take an active interest in the affairs of life, and go out into society and enjoy myself with the best. After a few months of steady perseverance with the medicine my lit a! tir was thoroughly re-established, and 1 still remain quite wcil and happy. If they will only protit by my experience I am'sure that no one need suffer from indigestion who is prepared to give Mother Seige ’s Syrup a fair 'rial” The final phr.se of Miss Raven’s case is oon-aiued in the seven words near the close oj her letter; “ I still remain quite well aad happy!”
