SEIGEL'S SYRUP
Mr. George Bath, Trefisia Villa, Windmill Road, New Brompton, Kent, writing on March 9th, 1901, says: "For twenty years I suffered all the horrors
of chronic indigestion-fierce, racking pains in the head, an awful sense of sinking in the stomach, fulness at the chest, sleeplessness, and extrorņe
nervous depression. But now, thanks to Seigel's Syrup, I am in good health again, Indeed I seem to be getting younger every day. Seigel's Syrup has
added years of happi-
ness to my life
