NERVOUS DEPRESSION

HEADACHES BILIOUSNESS

CONSTIPATION CURED BY

Indigestion is perhaps the greatest affliction of the human race, and headaches, biliousness, constipation, wind, anæmia, and nervous depression are its natural consequences. At all periods of life, you should specially guard against indigestion, for it strikes at the very foundation of your well-being, poisons your blood, and weakens your constitution. When that happens, anything may follow, for a weakened con- stitution cannot resist the germs of disease. Your best safe- guard against all digestive disorders is the herbal tonic, Mother Seigel's Syrup. It tones up your stomach, liver and bowels, cleanses your system, increases your vitality, and renews your constitution. That is why it cures indigestion, with all the ills that follow in its train, and thus ensures good health. Try it! Mrs, Jepson, of Stone, Maltby, Rotherham, Yorks, saysWe look upon Mother Seigel's Syrup as our family medicine, for our faith in it is unbounded."
