TREATED FOR THE WRONG COMPLAINT.
*■ It is at all times bard to lose one whom we hold dear, but it is terribly «o when we have the consciousness that but for mistaken treatment tbe loved one might hove been with us still. In some cases the fact that the sufferer is treated for the wrong complaint is known in sufficient time to admit, of the patient being saved, and the following is a case in -paint:— A little more than two years ago, a beautiful young lady in New York was given up to die of consumption. Her fond parents took her to Paris as a last resort, hoping to find foine skilful physician there capable of ar> eating the rapid strides of the supposed dreadful disease. In this their hopes were blighted, feut fortunately away in that distant foreign city they met with a description of a new melhod of trfating Dyspepsia, which emanated from the Mount Lebanon Shakers of the State of New York. The thought struck the parents of this helpless young girl that perhaps thrir daughter was ifflicted with Indig stion or Dyspepsia, and not consumption ; «nd if so, there might be a chance for her recovery. Some of the Seigel's Curatiyc Syrup, made especially for the cure of Djsrepsta, was obtained and administered to the patient, aud the result was marvellous. To-day their daughter lives in the enjoyment of good health. The fact was, the patient had been treated for the wrong complaint, and when she was treated for Dyspepsia (her real trouble), all the alarming symptoms of consumption vanished. This is not an isolated ctfee. The country is full of suffering thousands that are being treated for Liver Complaint, Malaria, Kidney Dieesse, Lung Disorders, &c, &c, when the fact is they are afflicted with Indigestion in some of its varied forms, and all of such sufferrrs would obtain relief if they were properly treated for Dyspepsia.
