THINGS A WOMAN CAN SELDOM DO !

The great advantage of being a man, in some people’s eyes, is that a man has much more freedom than a woman. Ordinarily he can go where he likes and live where he likes. He may choose his own trade or profession, and be the architect of his own futune. A woman can’t always do these things, and in one other respect she is peculiarly handicapped. A youth with sound health can look straight down the road of life, and, unless accident befall him, he stands a fair chance of coming to hale old age. But a girl cannot look straight denon the road, because there are critical points beyond which she cannot see, turning points which may be full of hidden dangers. The girl who is “Standing -with reluctant feet Where the brook and river meet.” is fortunate if she enters womanhood without finding herself a victim to amemia or some kindred trouble. Later, when she becomes a mother, she has a new series of dangers to face; and once again, at the changeful season of life, she must exercise every care if she is to enjoy a ripe old age. Now, all doctors know that although women have many more ailments to contend with than can fall to the lot of man, nearly every one of these ailments can be avoided so long as a woman keeps her digestive organs in perfect working order. That is practically the whole secret! When food nourishes you your blood is pure, you are sure to feel well and be well. But when your stomach and liver are out of order, food cannot nourish you, because you do not digest it. Then, instead of being turned into good blood, to build up and repair the waste of the body, food lies in the stomach and creates poisons which pollute the blood, clog the system, lower vitality and create disease. This is the cause of ninetenths of all human ailments and the real root of most of these ailments, which afflict women in particular. If you want to be free from anaemia, headaches, biliousness, constipation, languor, irregularities of the system, debility and all kindred troubles, keep your digestive system in thorough working order, and all will be well.

There are many things which may cause your digestive system to break down overwork, anxiety, hurried meals, weather changes—but whatever the cause, - you can always speedily and surely restore your stomach and liver to working order by taking a short course of Mother Seigel’s Syrup. This favourite family remedy for all digestive disorders is made of more than ten different roots, barks and leaves, which in combination possess, in a remarkable degree, the power of toning and strengthening the stomach and regulating the action of the liver and bowels. This is the secret of its great success. It cures in a natural way, and, better still, it cures permanently. The Syrup is woman’s invaluable friend at every period of life, and no household should ever be without it.

On April 30th, 1910, Mrs McGrath, 205, Berkley Street, Carlton, Victoria, wrote: —“I became subject to indigestion. My worst troubles were feelings of suffocation and oppression at my chest, and sharp pain in the back. After eating, I often felt as though I would vomit. A doctor said I had chronic indigestion, and he feared I would never get rid of it. Pills and medicines did me no good. Then my mother persuaded me to try Mother Seigel’s Syrup. I took it for some weeks and the result was a complete and perfect cure!”
