THE FASTING MAN.

Every now and tlien, from New York, London, or some other big city, yon hear of a man who ran go forty days without food! But every such man, at the end of his fast, looks weak and ill! He has scarcely strength enough to walk, and is as thin as a lath. That is suflicient proof that we must eat to live ! Further, we must digest what we eat, or we shall be weak and ailing, like all dyspeptics are. If you are weak, rise tired, with no relish for breakfast and dreading your work; if you have headaches, biliousness, constipation, dizziness, nervousness or low spirits, you need only the power to digest food to make you well and strong again. \on need the help that Mother Seigel’s Syrup gives ! It helps your stomach, liver and bowels to do their work properly. Then you can digest food, and good health follows naturally. Take, for example, the experience of Mr William Cregan, Morse Street, The Valley, Brisbane, Queensland ; who, in a letter dated January 28th, 1910, says : “For a year and nine months, I was badly alllicted with Indigestion and constipation. These distressing ailments shattered my health, until life became a burden. Meat, vegetables, fruit and sweets all caused me much pain and discomfort. I could only eat ‘ slop food,’ for which I had no appetite.

“ I had a tight feeling across my chest, and my stomach was often distended with wind, which caused severe pains about my heart. Week by week my strength declined and I lost llesh until there was little left of me but skin and bone. At night, I seldom knew what it was to get two hours, at a time, of sound sleep. I would just doze and wake up, half a dozen times in a night. “In the mornings, I had a bad taste in my mouth, no appetite for breakfast, and felt anything but lit to tackle the day’s work The constipation, too, kept getting worse and the doctor ordered me purgatives, which only afforded temporary relief. For my indigestion, after trying doctor's medicine, I tried a variety of advertised remedies but got no real bcnelit until an old friend induced me, two years back, to try Mother Seigel’s Syrup. “Almost from the iirst, I could feel that the Syrup was doing me good, and in a week I was considerably better in every way I began to eat and take enjoyment in food. The pains to which I had been accustomed, after eating, grew less after each dose of the Syrup, and my bowels acted more freely. “As I continued to use the Syrup, I made rapid advances towards recovery, and in the course of a couple of months, I was fully and completely restored to health. “ As a reliable, effective remedy, for Indigestion and constipation, there is nothing in all Australia to equal Mother Seigcl’s Syrup. Mr Cregan was sure to suffer as long as his stomach was out of order—unable to digest and gain nourishment from food. Mother Seigel’s Syrup restored his stomach to working order, made food nourish him, stimus luted the action of his liver and boweland thus it cured him—once for all. Mother Seigel’s Syrup will cure you, too, if you have stomach or liver disorder. Take it daily, after meals.
