I have seen hammers, weighing many" tons each and operated by steam, that would crack an egg without crushing it, and yet at one blow smash a lump of iron as big as your head as flat and thin as this sheet of paper. There are several such hammers at Essen, in Prussia, where the German Emperor's big guns are made, and. at Armstrong's foundry, by the river Tyne, in England.
Thave looked at these hammers with admiration and awe. They are things to take one's hat off to. Oh, to -have the power of a thunderbolt combined with muscular control that would enable me to take a moth between my thumb and finger without brushing the flour from its wings And health, too, of course, health which should never, since I began to breathe, have been modified by an ache, a weakness or any physical suggestion that this condition would ever But there! if wishes were horses beggers might ride.
Whether the Creator so intended it I cannot say, but every human lifo falls short of the ideal.
Here is an extract from a letter written by Mrs. H. C. Oosthuizen, who lives at Stand 875, Richt Street, Burghersdorp, Transvaal, on April 14 of this year, 1904, in which she tells you exactly how she suffered. and what the chief symptoms were.*If you are suffering from pains in the stomach, or kidneys, or from rheumatism, or have any of the symptoms she describes, it would be well for you to act. on the recommendation she gives when she tells you what cured her. She says: "For nearly fifteen years Tuffered from kidney complaint. 1 was hardly ever free from rheumatism, pains and backache. I became so ill at last that while in the Women's Camp at Bloemfontein, during the war I was taken into hospital and there remained for over two months, The treatment given me by the hospital doctors gave temporary relief and I was discharged from hospital. The rough conditions under which we were living at the time away from all home comforts did not tend toward building up my already shattered state of health. Having some friends in the camp who had been cured by Mother Seigel's Syrup, I visited them and from them heard the wonders of that remedy. I purchased two bottles and began to feel my health improve. I continued using the Syrup until 1 was completely cured."
There is no mistaking that story—it is a plain and simple one. But perhaps you would like to know more about the wonderful curative effects of this remarkable medicine in another cnse—this time the patient being a man. If so, read the nccompanying extract from a letter written on March 27th, this same year, 1904, Mr. X. Norodien, of the Malay Location, Johannesbrug. He says: "For nine years I suffered from severe pains in the vicinity of the kidneys, lost my appetite completely, and could only take milk and beef tea anything more substantial would not remain in the stomach. I became so ill that Twas forced to take to my bed. A doctor treated me for almost two months, bat without success. On arriving at Cape Town at the outbreak of hostilities, a Malay friend told me of the wonderful qualities of Mother Seigel's Syrup. One. bottle velieved me, and now I am never without a bottle in my house."
Only one bottle, he says, cured him, but he has such confidence in the remedy that he keeps it always handy, He.can eat and enjoy and digest his food now. Without fire, no heat. Without digested food. no strength. Thats Nature's law. Relief and cure for digestive disorders reside in Mother Seigel's Syrup. Cases on which excellent doctors have looked in despair are daily cured by it, and it is constantly adding to the working strength and hap-pines of the world,
