THE PREACHER’S SECRET!
“I have lived long enough,” says an eminent clergyman, “to learn that the secret of happiness is never to allow one’s energies to stagnate.” It’s easy talking, but we have to allow some. things to happen, whether we will or not. When a man hasn’t a morsel to eat and can’t get food anywhere, he is obliged to “allow” himself to go hungry. And “energies” come from something. When that something fails, then the energies stagnate, in spite of all the talk in the world.
Just listen to Mr G. Pedrotta, who lives at 3, Mill Street, Adelaide. Speaking of his own experience, he says: “I was so often out of sorts that I could scarcely keep on my feet or attend to my business.” In other words, his energies were stagnated a thing the preacher says ought never to be allowed to happen! Why did it happen? Let the man himself explain. “For years,” he says, “I was in a state of chronic ill-health through indigestion. I could neither sleep nor eat well, and suffered greatly from severe pains in the stomach after almost every meal.” We venture to say that the preacher never had indigestion like that man had it, or he would never have talked so glibly about not letting one’s energies stagnate. People who suffer from indigestion just have to let their energies stagnate, whether they will or not. All they can do is what Mr Pedrotta did—get rid of their indigestion—and then their energies will stagnate no longer.
Mr Pedrotta’s letter tells us how he was cured. He writes: “Six months back, my wife, who had been cured of a long-standing illness by Mother Seigel’s Syrup, persuaded me to try it. When 1 had taken a single bottle, I felt a lot better. All the symptoms of indigestion decreased, and I gained strength, health and appetite. After using a few additional bottles of the Syrup, all pain was entirely removed. I could eat heartily and digest my food without difficulty, and was soon feeling as well as I could wish to be.
“I still take a little of the Syrup now and then, and it keeps the stomach and other organs in good working order, and benefits my whole system.” That is testimony enough to the curative powers of Mother Seigel’s Syrup, for it has not only restored Mr Pedrotta to health, but an occasional dose, now and then, keeps his digestive system in thorough working order! If you wanted further proof of the value of Mother Seigel’s Syrup, as a family remedy, here it is, in Mr Pedrotta’s own words: “My wife also uses Mother Seigel’s Syrup with the happiest results, whenever she feels a little ‘run down.’ It is our one and only remedy for all ordinary complaints.” People who lack energy, feel tired, languid, feeble, nervous, need one thing to make them strong, bright, vigorous and comfortable again, viz., food. Food will do it, when everything else has failed. After it is digested, it will do it —not before. When your stomach is deranged and cannot digest food, Mother Seigel’s Syrup, the herbal tonic, will tone up and help it to do its work. For 40 years past. Mother Seigel’s Syrup has brought enery, health and happiness to thousands of tired, dyspeptic men and women just as it will bring these blessings to you ! As a digestive tonic and stomachic remedy, Mother Seigel’s Syrup is unrivalled. Try it to-day, and prove its worth!
