CONVINCING PROOF

Don Quixote said "the proof of the pudding is the eating." The proof of the value of Mother Seigel's Syrup is in the personal experience of the hundreds of thousands of people whom it has ́ cured of stomach and liver disorders. If you have no appetite, and cannot digest food, if you suffer from headaches. biliousness, con- stipation, anæmia, or any hindred trouble, arising from a disordered state of the stomach or liver, Mother Seigel's Syrup will cüre you. The herbal extracts of which it is made will restore your stomach and liver to worlång order, give perfect digestion, make food nourish you; and thus keep you in excellent health.

THAT-MOTHER

SEIGEL'S SYRUP!

Mrs. Huddleston, Eclipse Dining Rooms, near South Wigston Station, Leicester,says:-"I had severe indigestion-pains in the chest after meals, and gradually it got round my heart, giving me there a most awful pain, which male me feel sick.. I couldn't sleep. My appetite left me. I was so rus down I couldn't work. After only one bottle of Mother Seigel's Syrup I was cured."
