A Veteran Nurse’s Letter MRS SCOTT, OF BRUNSWICK TALKS ABOUT MOTHER SEIUEL’S SYRUP AND ITS CURING POWER. The wonders of one age are the everyday things of another. If two centuries ago a man had shown an excellent photograph of some well-known person without first explaining the process by which he had been able to procure it, he would surely have been burnt ftS & wizard in any Enrcpaaii country. If, when stupid George 111. ascended the English throne in 1760, anyone had declared that a conversation could be carried on between two persons as far apart as the cities of Melbourne and Sydney he would promptly have been judged fit for a lunatic asylum. But we must not laugh too readily at our ancestors, for even in these “ advanced" days we have not entirely emerged from the fog of unthinking unbelief.
But the opinion of a veteran export is beyond suspicion. To say that Nurse Sadie Scott, of 1, Station street, Brunswick, Victoria, is a veteran in her profession, at the head in skill and experience, is merely saying what is wellknown in Brunswick, North Carlton, Fitzroy and Preston. Now in her sixtyfifth year, but in appearance full twenty years younger than that, Mrs Scott has gained her unrivalled experience in England, Scotland, New Zealand, and our own country, where her services are much in request by the leading surgeons of Melbourne. The opinion of such a person upon any medical matter could not fail to bo of real value. Hero is what Nurse Scott has to say, under date of April Ifith, IflOi), of Mother Scigel’s Curative Syrup:— " Speaking as a trained surgical nurse, with the accumulated experience of forty years, I say that Mol her Suigel’s Syrup is the best medicine in the world for use at the two most, critical periods in a woman’s life. Taken at the right time, it, dispels pain, and often averts years of ill-health- and suffering. In eases of indigestion and dysnepsia. however produced, it gives almost immedia e relief, removes constipation and biliousness, ensures regular action of the liver and bowels, enriches and purifies the blood, and in all respects builds up and gives energy to the most debilitated constitution, ft is a general remedy that mav be used with advantage in almost -all complaints, and one bottle of it in the home is worn, in medicinal value, the entire contents of an ordinary medicine chest. On two occasions, when I was thoroughly run down through overwork, and on the brink of serious illne-s, a timely recourse to Mother Seigel’s Syrup lias turned the threatened danger aside and set me on mv feet again. •
“ I believe, hut am not quite sure, that I am the first person who used 'Mother Se'gcl’s Syrup in New Zealand, ft wa< in Dunedin, more than twenty veara .ago, thru. T first required that medicine, and Messrs Church and Clung, well-known merchants of that city, specially imported a quantity of it for me, from London. The investment w.ib welt rewarded, for I soon regained my health. Again, several years later, "■hen following my profession at the Maternity Hospital, Ed nhurgh (Scotland), T broke down through overwork and was laid aside for weeks, suffering ’-ora exhaustion. On this occasion, too, the aid of Mother Weigel’s Syrup was invoked, with the result that I was soon able to resume ray duties in perfect health, I always keep Mother Seigel’s Syrup bv me, and whenever I feel the need of medicine, as oven the most robust will do occasionally, if they would preserve their health. I take a few doses, and it never fails of the desired effect. What I have here said is simple tru h. dictated solely by a desire to render service to the sick •rad suffering, and with no other object whatever.”
