Dear Sir, — I write to inform you that I have derived _reat benefit from " Seigel's £ rup *■ For some years I have suffered from liver complaint with its many and varied concomitant evils, so that my life was a perpetual mis ry. Twelve months ago I was induced to try (Seigel's iSyruu, and altlirough rather sceptical, I determined to give it at least a fair trial. In two or three days I felt considerably better, and now at the end of twelve montl s (having continued taking it) I am glad to say that I am a aitlerent being altogether. Itis said of certain pens thut they " come as a boon and » blefßing to men " and J have no reason todou t the truthfulness of tbe statement. J can tru'y say, however, that /Seigel's •Syrup has come as a " boon and a blessi-g " J to me- jfliave recommend it to several fellowsufferers from this distres ing complaint, and their testimony is quite in accordance with my own. G'utitude for the benefit J have derived fr>m the excellent preparation, prompts me to mrnish you with this unsolicited testimonial. Jam, dear Sir, Yours ever gratefully (■Signed) Carey B. Berry, A.
