All this terrible group Mother Seigel's Cura- tive Syrup removes by its positiro, powerful, direct, yet painless and gentle action upon tho fanstions of iigestion and assimilation. Ther elements of the food that biùld up and strengthen the system are sent upon their mis sion, while all waste matters (the ashes of life's fire) which, upromovod poison and kill, are ex- pelled from the body through the bowels, kid- neys, and skin. The weak and prostrated nerves, are quiotod, toned, and fed by the purified blood. As the result, health, with its enjoyments, bless. ings, and power, returns to the sufferer, who had perhaps abandoned all hope of over weing another well day,
Mother Sagol's Carativo Syrup is for sale by all chemists and medicine vendors, and by the proprietors, A. J. White, Limited, 35, Far ringdon Road, London.
