A WOMAN’S SUFFERINGS AND GRATITUDE.
ATOIOBTBOM ATTSTBU. Near (he Tillage of Zillingdorf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent and industrious woman, whose story of physical suffering and final relief, as related by her--1 self, is of interest to English women. " I Was employed,” she says, “ in the work of a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a deathly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retain either food or drink. I was compelled to take to my bed for several weeks. Setting a little better from rest and quiet, I sought to do some work, but was soon taken with a pain in my side, which in a little while seemed to spread over my whole body, and : throbbed in my every limb. This was followed by a cough and shortness of breath, until finally I could not sew, and I took to my bed for (he second, and, as I thought, for the last time. My friends told me that ay time had nearly come, and that I could not live longer than when the trees put on (heir green once more. Then 1 hapfened to get one of the Beigel pamphlets, read it, and my dear mother bought me a bottle of Seigel’s Syrup, which I took exactly according to the directions, and I bad not taken the whole of it before I felt a great change for the better. My last illness began June 3rd, 188 S, and continued to August 9th, when 1 began to take the Syrup, Tery soon 1 could do a little light work. The oongh left me, and I was no more troubled in breathing. Now I am perfectly cured. And oh, how happy lam! I cannot express gratitude enough for Seigel’s Syrup. Now I must tell yon that the doc-
ton in our district distributed handbills cautioning people against the medicine, tell* iug them it would do them no good, and manj were thereby influenced to destroy the Seigel pamphlets; but now, wherever one is to be found, it is kept like a relio. The few preserved are borrowed to read, and 1 have lent mine lor six miles around our district. People have oome eighteen miles to get me to buy the medicine for them, knowing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind. I know a woman who was looking like death, and who told them there was no help for her, that she had consulted several doctors, but none oould help her, I told her of Seigel's Syrup, and wrote the name down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the Syrup, and now ebe is in perfect health, and the people around u« are amazed. The medicine has made snob progress in our neighborhood that people say they don’t want the doctor any more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout, who were oonfned to their bed and could hardly move a finger, have been oared by it. There is a girl in onr district who caught a cold by going through some water, and was in bed five years with oostivenesi and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch her. There was not a doctor in the surrounding district to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, but every one crossed themselves and said they oould not help her. Whenever the little bell rang, which is rung in our place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, but Seigel’e Syrup and Fills saved her life, and'now she is as healthy as anybody, goes to church, and can work even in the fields, Everybody was astonished when they saw her out, knowing how many rears she had been in bed. To-day she adds
her gratitude to mine far God’s mercies and Seigel’s Syrup." Mabia Haas. The people of England apeak confirming the above. AITEB HAST TBABS. “ Whittle-Ie- Woods, near Ohorley, “ December 86th, 1883. 11 Dear Sir,—Mother Seigel’s medicine sells exceeding well with na, all that try it apeak highly in its favor. We had a case of a young lady that bad been troubled many years with pains afcer eating. She tells us that the pains were entirely taken away after a few doses of your medicine.—Yours truly, " E. Pbbi,”
