This Will Settle the Question.

. .«' I don't believe there is a word of truth i nit,". - That's the way certain foolish,people talk when they hear of any Hub? unusual, . or outflidettiolinritp'of their oiHi obser : vatieri or experience They are of the sort who laughed at Stephenson when he introduced the railway, and at Moise when he said that we could communicate by means of electricity. Xet they don'tlaunh at those things now. They make use of them daily. Some months ago the case of Mrs Mary Cuddy was first published. The great public accepted the facts, as they had every reason to do. Others, a yery few (professional men'perhaps) pretended to doubt, and soht; emissaries to inquire oftluladylwßelf whether hex

allegatrons bad uoi been added i:o, or alf.ered, for fc'.'o sake nf popu'ar effoot, ' Here is her answer I She repeats what she at first raid, and puts a quietus on all who called honvordawtoquestion, It will be observed that her statement is as plain nnd solemn as language can make it.

■ [copy] I, Mary Cuddy, of 28, Catherine Street, Richmond Road, , Leeds, do aolouirly and sincerely declare as fol-* lows:—

i Ev or since I was n girl I havo suffered i- from illness. 1 always hud a pain both if beforo and alter eatiutt, and never | seemed able to gain and keep iny ; | strength, and felt that something was pulling me down. 1 had a nasty queer feoling- in my stomach. Sometimes food seemed to ease f it, and at other times it lmde me feel n worse, nnd often 1 wont without food, n for I was afraid to eat. Commonly when food was placed before mo I could not touch it, and 1 often fainted at tho very sight of it. After a while I became so '' weak I cuiild scarcely stand or walk. I I thought it was consumption coming on 0 by degrees and I touk all sorfs (if motli 1 cines to try and get reliel, but it was nf s no use, nnd I got tired of taking physic, t for I had lost all faith in it. My bmi, i ness was so urgent that I was compelled to be' at work, otherwise I would have 1 laid in bod, bo wesk had 1 become. ! With tlio weakness and loss of appetite 3 thero wore other feelings and signs that i were bad auu alarmed mo greatly, i 4.moug tliem were theseA yellowish I colour of the skin and eyes, sometimes a I cold clammy perspiration, pains and aches in tho sides, the chest and back, headache, a kind of wind or gxs coming ! tip into my throat and mouth that wai i so sour and sickening I could scarcely | bear it. 'hice in a while 1 would havo a , strange fluttering mid palpitation that mado me think my heart mustho affected. ' My heart would thump so that 1 feareJ . it would jump out of its place, and 1 havo had to walk about tho mom fur two or threo hairs at a time, fir 1 could not it or lie. The pa : n was so severe that I havo nsked my husband if be could not , hearmyhearUhumpingnsl walkedabout. 1. always slopt badly at night, and frequently hud horrible dreams, and was 0 melancholy and depressed in spirits that I would ait down and cry, for I got no pleasure as timo'dragged wearily by, 1 lwd so little energy or strength that it was all thntl could do to summon labour upon which the family (at least in part) depended or support, lam a maker, and it will ho easily undented how hard my life was, for I didn't think it would Inst much longer, Not long ago (May J8D1) I made up my mind to try a medicine that is advertisod and known all over tho country. I mean Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. 1 had no faith in it at first, for how can one beliovo in what one knuwa nothing about? I bought and tried Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup only because of ' its reputation, How could so many people, I asked myse l ", praise a medicino so much if it had no virtue? I can only say that I found what they said was true. After beginning with the Syrup, relief soon followed. My food digested better and gave me strength, and by peraevorng with it all my pains disappeared, [ ] sould eat my food with a relish, ] and overyttiing agreed with me. < Now and again when through con- i finement and bard work, I feel \ a touch of my old complaint I take ] a doso or two of Seigel's Syrup and the ( trouble goes no further. Since the pub- , lieaticn of my testimonial many persvns have callcdat my home awlaskcd me if all ' that is published about my case is true, and if the Proprietors of Seigel's Syrup , had muds additions to my statement. < I told them all ihat etcry word was true and nothing had been added by the Proprietors of the medicine, but 1 could . adi a good deal more, for no words can 1 describe what my sufferings were during all those long years, I nover expected boing well again in this world. Seigel's Syrup saved my life and I desire othor ' sufferers to know of what did so much for me. I will gladly answer inquiries. And I mako this solemn declaration conscientiously bolieving the same to be trie, by virtue of the provisions of the ( Statutory Declaration Act (Will. IV., c. 02.) ] (Signed) Mary Cudd\, Declared before mo at in tho County of iork, by the said Mary Cuddy, on [ Monday, tho 10th day of August, 1891. I (Signed) Aw Cooke, Mayor of Leeds. Not a syllable hirtheris needed except . to say that her ailment, indigestion and dyspepsia, burdens and saddens the lives - of many other women (and men also), who will read with new hope the outcome of Mrs Cuddy's case, and place a confidence which no cavilling can shake, in the remedy which restored to her the ' health and happiness that Providence designs for us all.
