That's tho way certain foolish poop talk whoa they hear of anything unusua or outside the limits of their oivn obse vation or experience. They are of tl Bortwho laughed lit Stephonson whe ho introduced tho railway, and at Mou when ho said that T.'o could commun catn'by moans of electricity. Yot the don't laugh at those things noiv, The rmako uso of them daily, Some months ago tho case of Mi Mary Cuddy was first published. Tli great public accepted tho facta, as tho had every reason to do. Others, a yer fow (professional men perhaps) pretoii ded to doubt, and sent emissaries t inquire of tho lady heiself whethoi' ho allegations had not been added *o, o altered, for tho sake of popular effect, Here is her answer I Slw repeat what she at fust said, and puts a iptidit on nil who called honvovdsiutoquestion It will be observed that her statemen is as plain and solemn as language cai make it[copy] I, Mary Cuddy, of 28, Cathcrim Street, liiclimond Eoad, Leeds, di Bolcmnly and sincerely declare as fol lows:— E- er since I was a girl I have sufferer from illness. 1 always had a pain botl before and after eating, and novel seemed able to gain and keep mj atrongth, and felt that something was pulling mo down. I hai a nasty queer feeling in my stom ach. Sometimes food seemed to east it, and at other times it undo me feel worse, and often. 1 went.withuut food, a. fori was afraid to eat. Commonly when food was placed before mo I could not touch'it, and 1 often fainted at the very sight of it. After'a wlnlo I became so weak I could scarcely stand or walk, I thought it was consumption coming on by degrees and I to>-k all torts of medi cines to try and get reliel, but it was nf no use, and I got tired of taking physic, for 1 had lost nil faith in it. ftly business was so urgent that I was compelled ■ to bo at work, otherwise [ would have laid in bed, ao rceik had 1 becouio. With tho weakness and loss of appetite thero were other feelings and signs that wero bad aim alarmed mo greatly. 4mong them were thesoA yellowish colour of tho skin and oyes, sometimes a cold c'ammy perspiration, pains and aches in the sides, the cheat, and back, headache, a kind of wind or gas coming up into my throat and mouth that wai so aour and sickening I could scarcely bear it Once in a while 1 would havo a strange fluttering and palpitation that made methink my heart mustbe affected. My heart would thump so tlwt I feare.i it would jump out of its place, and I have had to walk about tho ioom for two or threo hours at a time, for I could not it or lie. The pain was so severe that I have asked my husband if he could not hearmyhcartthumpiogasJ walkedabout. I always slept badly at night, and frequently had horrible dreams, and was so melancholy and depressed in spirits that I would sit down and cry, for 1 got no pleasure as time dragged wearily by. I had ao little energy or strength that it was all that I could do to summon labour upon which the family (at least in part) depended for support. lam a dressmaker, and it will be easily underatod how hard my life was, for I didn't think It would last much longer. Not long ago (May 1891) I mado up my mind to try a medicine that is advortised and known all over the country. I moan Mother Seigol's Curative Syrup. 1 had no faith in it at first, for how can one believe in what one knows nothing about ? I bought and tried Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup only because of its reputation, How could so many people, I asked myself, praise a medioine so much if it had no virtue? I can only say that I found what they said was true. . After beginning with the Syrup, relitf Boon followed. My food digested better and gave me strength, and by pcrseverng with it all my pains disappeared. [ sould eat my food with a relish, and everything agreed with mo. Now and again when through conB finement and hard work, I feel ' a touch of my old complaint I take a dose or two of Seigel's Syrup and the trouble goes no further. Since the publication of my testimonial many perms hue called at my horn andaskedme if all that is published about my case is true, and if the Proprietors of itci'jd's Syrup had made additions to my statement. I told them all that eterij word was true and nothing had been added by the Proprietors of the medicine, but I could adi a good deal more, for no words can describe what my sufferings wero during all those long years, I never expected being well again in this world. Seigel's Syrup savod my life and I desire other sufferers to know of what did so much for me. I will gladly answer inquiries. And I make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing the same to be true, by virtue of the provisions of the Statutory Declaration Act (Will. IV., c. 62) (Signed) MaryCuddv, Declared before me at Leeds,\ in the County of lork, by the said Mary Cuddy, on: Monday, the lflth day of August, 1891. I f (Signed) Alf Cooke, \ Mayor of Leeds. Not a syllable further is needed except to say that her ailment, indigestior. and dyspepsia, burdens and saddens the lives of many othor women (and men also), who will read with new hope the outcome of Mrs Cuddy's case, and placo a confidence which no cavilling oau shake, in the remedy which restored to her tho hoalth and happiness that Providence designs for us all.
