A Veteran Nurese's Letter.

MRS SCOTT, OP BRUNSWICK TALKS ABOUT MOTHER SEIGBL’S SYRUP AND ITS CURING POWER.

The wonders of one age are the everyday things of another. If two centuries ago a man had showrt an excellent photograph of some well-known person without first explaining the process by which he had been able to procure it, ho would surely have been burnt as a wizard in any European country. If, when easy-tempered, stupid George TIL aaeended the English throne in 1760, anyone had declared that a Conversation could bo carried on between two persons as far apart, as the cities of Melbourne and Sydney ho would promptly have he m judged fit for a lunatic asylum. But wo must not laugh too readily at Din: ancestors, for oven m these “advanced" days We have not entirely emerged from the fog of unthinking unbelief.

But the opinion of a veteran expert is beyond suspicion. To aay that Nurse ; 8.1 lie Scott, of 1, Station street, Bruns- \ wb;k, Victoria, is a veteran in her pro- ! fession, at the head in skill and experience, is merely saying what is wellknown in Brunswick, North Carlton* Fltx.roy and Preston, NoW ill her sixtyfir h year, but ill appearance full twenty years younger than that, Mrs Scott has g fined her unrivalled experience in England, Scotland, New Zealand, and our own country, where her services arc much injrequest by the leading surgeons of Melbourne. The opinion of such a person upon any medical matter could n>t fail to be of real value. Here is wh it Nurse Scott has to say, under d ite of April 15th, 1903, of Mother Saigel’s Curative Syrup:— " Speaking as attained surgical nurse, with the accumulated experience of forty years, I say that Mother Seigcl’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 cases of indigestion 2,nd dyspepsia, however produced, it gives almost immediate relioi, 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. It is a general remedy that may be used with advantage in almost all complaints, and one bottle of it in the home is work, 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 illness, a timely recourse to Mother Seigel’s Syrup has turned the i threatened danger aside and set me on j my feet again. | “ I believe, but am not quite sure, that I am the first person who used Mother Seigel’s Syrup in New Zealand. In was in Dunedin, more than twenty yr-ars ago, that I first required that medicine, and Messrs Church and Clung, well-known merchants of that city, specially imp uted a quantity of it for *ino, from London, The investment was well rewarded, for I soon regained my health. Again, several years later, when following my profession at the Maternity Hospital, Edinburgh (Scotland!, I broke down through overwork, and was laid aside for weeks, suffering j from exhaustion. On this occasion, too, the aid of Mother Soigcl’s Syrup was invoked, with the result that I was soon able to resume my duties in perfect health. I always keep Mother Seigel’s Syrup bv me, and ' whenever I feel the need of medicine, as even the most robust will do oc- ■ casi on ally, if they'would preserve their health, I take a i'ew doses, and it never j fails of the desired effect. What I have j here said is simple truth, dictated solely ; hv a desire to render service to the sick and suffering, and with no other object whatever.’’
