A DOOMED WOMAN. THE DOCTOR SAID SHE HAD ONLY SIX MONTHS TO LIVE, BUT MOTHERiSEIGEL’S SYRUP CURED HER COMPLETELY. Well-known Melbourne Nurse praises this Great Remedy. To be told that one has only six months to live is not cheering news, and the worst of it is that the prediction is very likely to come true, because the mind is apt to dwell on the thought of death, and to neglect the care of the bodily functions. Happily some are strong enough mentally to resist the influence, and among the number may be counted Mrs Eliza Hall, a professional nurse, who lives at 81, Dilbndge Street, North Fitzroy, Victoria, This lady was so far reduced by suffering that she could neither eat nor sleep, and the doctor, finding himself unable to change this terrible condition, naturally enough concluded that death was only a matter of time. But though doctors failed, Mother Seigels Syrup did not fail. It quieted her stomach, enabled her to eat and sleep, and now she is as strong and well as one could wish to be. Here is her own statement, dated April sth i9ofi;— Tortuers Day and Night. “ My experience of Mother Seigel’s Syrup extends over eighteen year's, and I bless the day on which I first was persuaded to use it. I began to suffer with dyspepsia about this time, which soon became so acute that I was in tortures, day and night. I could keep nothing on my stomach, every meal was followed by violent retching, and a dry hard cough that settled on my chest nearly shook me to pieces, and often kept me awake half through the night. There were pains all over my body, and I was a bundle of nerves, starting at a sound. Extreme debility added to my distress, and I soon became a prey to melancholy. I was attended by some ot the cleverest doctors in the country, but they failed to* relieve me in the least, “ Through sheer weakness I became subject to fainting fits, and have had as many as ten in one day. I could not sleep, and night after night I have walked the room until I fell in a swoon from utter exhaustion. “ It was at this time the doctor said I could not live beyond six months, and, indeed, everything pointed that way. But they say it is darkest before the dawn. Mother Seigel’s Syrup was at last brought to my notice, and I got some. From the first dose I began to mend, and soon was quite restored to health. Since then the cable wonderful medicine has cured me on twh separate occasions, and I shall never tcease to praise.it.” I This is an everyday example of what -MotherSymp can do.
