There was a bad taste'in my mouth, my breath was' bad, »ud : my mouth would.! often fill ..with an offon* Biv.e slimy, matter. Myappetitewss poor, and nft»r oatinEj I buffeiedgreat paint arid wind would roll all oyer me/ Ihad much'pain at the stomach, and was sick very; rtornin?, and' threw' 'bp a great doaM phleßir.' 1 also had a pain like the thrust of a knife cutting me between the. shoulders and low down in the back at fclie kidneys. When at work I got tired in fiye minutes, and had to stand iirid rest. 1
11 1 kept on wity my work, h'oweyer, for some' time as best I • : cbald,' • for'lhad a wife' and family depending • uporrme, But it was a hard and tedious task,- as even stooping made me or; out with pain.,;. After a while I gtm so weak, 1 could scarcely crawl about, and waßC<p' pelied'to : give up' myemployment. ..When I ventured out of doors I felt'so dizzy, that I had frequently to stop'arid rest for fear, of falling; and" was so bad that people would think 1 was in drink, and I had often to call at a chemist's and get a draught to help me home. I tried herbs and other medicines, and was attended by a doctor, but I got no better. In this dead-and-alive way 1 lingered on until' April, 1890j wlion' my wife got an almanac from the druggist, and 1 read of a gasp of ajrailway guard at Mau> cheater,' who had been cured by a medicine called Mot; er Beige!'a Curative Syrup after the doctors had up. Ho 1 wrote to bitn,.and he. replied that it had cured him and, would do me good, Upun this ! got a bottle, and aftera fow dusesT.felt.better, and.by keeping on using it I was soon all righ.t and back at my work, and have been well ever since. When I feel any sign ofstomach disorder afew.dosesoure me directly; I feel very gratpful forthe great; benefit : Ihave received, and wish others who may bo ill toknovrj.of.it'; as, if Z bad known of Syrup at the onset 1 would haye been,saved over four 'yeart Buffering.' I-have lived in Birkdale fifteen years, and if aßy ono writes to me I shall be glad' to reply. ; (Sigued)'' Thomas Sperbin, '■Kitchen Range Setter, ' , ,"58, Stamford " Birkdale, Southport." ' Now, whero .lathe likeness between MrSpfcrrifl's eipsrience and' our illustration about the horse ? It,is this : The horse gains no new strength from the application of, the spur. Of course we aU see that ho cannot. But the pain arouses him and makes a draf on his reserved nervous power—with a corresponding degree of exhaustion to follow, Thiß is ahyaya Nature's way. She gives nothing for nothing. All must be paid for, Look back at Mr Sperrin's statement where he says: "Ihqit on-n( my work, for I had a wife and family atpndingmmt." That .was his spur. It was work or worse for him, as it is with'nioat of us. But he had to pay for labouriug when he was unable, by having togivo up work altogether, and what tho end would have been had not Seijrel's Syrup coma to the rescue, nobody enh say. Possibly the saddest thing wo can think of, Any way this cnumphantmedicihe saved him, and he can work now without a spur. If the reader also' has indigestion and dyspepsia, with its painful and alarming conseauen'cos and syitip'tdnis, or knows of anothor who has, ho will be ablo to treat himself or advise his friend. !
