A CURIOUS THEORY About EARTHQUAKES.

“ The cause of earth quakes, is sin " This is] the way the great preacher explained these terrifying convulsions of the earth. Just fancy the destruction of Messina and Eeggio as resulting from violation of moral law. It is more likely that a good deal of sin results from earthquakes. But •Hannah More, the great authoress, came pretty close to the truth when she said “ The cause of a deal of sin, is bile ’’! That bit of wisdom and opinion we can understand easily. Bile poisons the blood—and poisoned, impure blood poisons the bmin. The brain is the organ of the mind and senses. All the earthquakes that ever shook this wicked world have not done as much harm to human beings as ie pone every year by sleepy stomachs and lazy Hvers.

My breathing was so difficult that I felt like suffocation. I feared going to bed at night and had to sleep propped up by pillows. The Indigestion also caused me a lot of suffering.

My appetite improved, all the distressing symptoms of Indigestion decreased and, I telt stronger and better In quite a short time I was quite freed from my old ailments. I shall always use Mother Weigel's Syrup when X need.medicine.” Extract from letter of Mr William Law, 408, Ann Street, Brisbane, Q.

Whatever may be the natural cause of earthquakes there cau be no doubt about the upheaval that Billiousness and Indigestion cause m the human systeln. Nor is there any doubt that Mother Seigel’s Syrup will cure these disorders and at the same time rid the ■sufferer of constipation, flatulence, , dizziness and all the attendant miseries.
