Near the ^ llage of Zilling dorf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent and industrious woman, whose story of physical suffering and final relief, as related by herself, is of interest to English she women, “I was employed, of 11 large farm- says, “in the work a house.

Now 1 am how perfectly cured; and oh, happy gratitude I ami I cannot express Seigel’s Syrup (Shaker enough for Ex¬ tract of Roots). Now I must tell you that the doctors in our district distributed handbills cautioning the the people against medicine, telling them it would do no good, and many were therebv influenced to de¬ stroy the Seigel pamphlets; but now, whenever one is to be found, it is kept like a relic. The few preserved are bor¬ rowed to read, and I have lent mine for six miles around our district. People have come eighteen medicine miles to get me to buy the for them, know¬ ing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind.
