TREATED FOR THE WRONG COMPLAINT.
It is at all timea hard to lose one whom we hold dear, but it is terribly so when we have the consciousness that but for mistaken treatment the loved one might have been with us •till. In some cases the fact that the sufferer is treated for tho wrong complaint is known in euffcient timo to admit of the patient being saved, and ihe following is a case in point: — A little more than two years ago, a beautiful young lady in New York was given up to die of consumption. Her ford parents took her to Paris as a last; resort, hoping to find some skilful physician there capable of anosting the rapid strides of the supposed dreadful disease. In this Ibeir hopes were blighted, tut foitunately away in that distant foreign city they met with a description of a new method of treating Dyspepsia, which emanated from the Mount Lebanon Shakers of the State of New York. The thought struck the parents of tbw helpless young girl that perhaps their daughter was afflicted with Indig' stion or Dyspepsia, and not consumption ; and if so, there might I c a chance for her recovery. Some of the Seigel'a Curative Syrup, made especially for the cure of Dyspepsia, was ob tamed ond administered to the patient, and the result ws'i marvellous. rJo-day their daughter lives *fn the enjoyment of good health. The fact web, the patient had been treated for the wrong complaint, and when ehe was treated for Dyspepsia (her real trouble), all the alarming symptoms of consumption vanished. This is not an isolated cake. The country is full of suffering thousands that are being treated for Liver Complaint, Malaria, Kidney Diseoße, Lung Disorders, &c, &c, when the fact is they are efflicted with Indigestion in some of its varied forme, and all of such sufferers would obtain re'ief if they were properly treated for Dyspepsia.
