| - *' ;ir by year his health grew wgrs >n<l wnrs.> until at last rheumatism ‘•atne with all its dreadful One joint after another became swollen aiul I inflamed, so that he was obliged to stop work. r n this sad plight the now young man was confined to the house fur two long years, sulfering all that mortal couM endure. One physician i » f *er another was called upon to treat | ! c. ...plaint, but with no benefit, fo r | the poor fellow continued to grow worse and worse. Hoping to find some means of relief, a consultation of doctors was held, when it was decided that an organic disease of the heart existed in an incurable form, and that medical aid could not afford relief. He was given up to die. These years of expensive medical treatment had exhausted the little savings of the mother, and they hail no money to buy even the necessaries of life. There was one spark of hope left. Someone had told her of a remedy that had cuxed so many cases even when as hopeless as this one seemed to lie—and the mother's love went out for her dear boy. Hut how to get the medicine was the question. Their money was entirely gone. The boy had a new pair of trousers that he had been too ill to wear, and the mother reasoned within herself, “ If the boy is to die lie will not need them, so I may as well pledge them for medicine with an effort to save his lite.” Strange as it may appear, the bottles of medicine procured at the chemist's shop in Pontypool with the money obtained from the pawnbroker effected a cure in this hopeless case, which had been pronounced as incurable. But it is only just to say that if the chemist had known of the wants of the family, the medicine could have been obtained without a visit to the pawnbroker. It is now nearly two years since this took place, and young Janies Francis Thomas lias been working in the coalpit under-ground ever since, earning extra pay for overwork, which lie is able to perform. Of course lie never had organic disease of the heart, as supposed. The palpitation, rheumatism, and asthma were mere symptoms of the real disease, which was dyspepsia, or indigestion, for which the remedy was specially adapted. Those who wish to communicate with tliis young man can write to him at tha above address, and lie will vouch for the curative properties of Seigel s Syrup, the article that affected this almost miraculous cure. The following letter is from a chemist, who thought the facts should he made known :—“Janies Francis Thomas, of Pontnewynydd, near Pontypool, aged 23, collier, was ill for nine years, unable to do any work for three years, never lay down in bed for nine years, had to sleep in a stooping posture, was treated by nearly all the doctors for miles around, who generally stated his complaint to be rheumatism and heart disease of a chronic nature, and beyond all power to cure. When hope had nearly died out lie was persuaded to try Seigel’s Syrup, and to the delight of his relatives and astonishment of his neighbours, after taking half a bottle lie could he down in bed. After taking one bottle he went to work, lias now taken two bottles, and on with a third, and is quite well and strong. His mother is in raptures, and can talk of nothing else but this marvellous cure, and wishes me to make it known.”
Seigel s Syrup is sold by all Chemists and Medicine Vendors, and by the proprietors, A. J. White (Limited), London, England, or the Wholesale Agents, Kemptliome, Prosser, & Co.’s New Zealand Drug Company (Limited), Dunedin, Auckland, Christchurch, and Wellington.
