The Rate of Wages. IT is the curtom of a certain London merchant to refuse an increase of salary to an employee who presumes to ask for it, regarding any such request as impertinent, while those wno don't ask he pays don't need it. That merchant is difficult to deal with ; yet there is a way to deal with him and his like. The employee who is full of energy, with a thorough mait-ry of the affairs entrusted to him, will never want for employment and fair pay. Where one employer will let him go, ten others will be eager to grip hold of him, for there are uone too many of liis kind. Why are such men scarce ? The answer is ready • Energy cau co-exiet only with health. Take the cisc of Mr. August Jansan, of Karabury Station, near Hay, N.S.W, an unquestionably industrious man who uned to be laid aside from time to time. Writing on January 20, 1902, Mr. Jauaan says : "Towards the close of 1890 we hud extremely hot, weather iv this part, of Riverina, (\»y after day the thermometer registering 100° to 120° Fahr. in the shade. My occupation (that of station carpenter) compelled mo t - spend the greater por'.ion of my time expo«erl to the scorching heat of the sun, a fact to which I attribute my subsequent sufferings. The first symptom was a sensation of sickness at the srorcach on rising in the morning, and a distaste, almost amounting to a loathing, for food of whatever kind. Then I became alarmed by acute pains in the region of the heart. The bowels, too, were very irregular in their action, extreme coßtiveness alternating with violent purging. I could not eat, and, for want of proper nourishment, became so weak that I could hardly stand. Frequently I had to lay up entirely neglecting my work for days at a time. Each week marked a change for the worse in my condition, and to my other symptoms were soon added sick headaches and terrible pains about the chest, all of which made me nervous, low-spirited, and irritable. After ineffectually taking as much patent medicine as would fill a sheep tank, I placed myself in the care of a doctor, who informed me that I was suffering from acute indigestion, and that my nervous system was shattered. He attended me for twelve months, at; the end of which time I was worse than when I first consulted him. Although only a little over 50 years of age, I felt like a worn-out old man, and had not the strength of a ten-year-old lad. I began to think I was beyond the aid of medicine, when a friend of mine, who had U3ed Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup with much benefit, persuaded me to try it. I agreed, and found relief from almost the first dose. By the time I ha.d taken two bottles I knew that I wa-t fairly on the road to health. My strength returned much quicker than it had departed. Before the sixth bottle was emptied I was restored to a thoroughly healthy ani robust condition. I could eat, sleep, and work without distress or even di^ennfort. It is now six months since my cure was completed, when I gave up taking the Syrup regularly ; but, as a precaution, I still take a couple of doses every week. Many other persons in this district have taken it on my recommendation and in. no case has it failed.' 3
