What our hero, THOMAS BRIGGs, accomplished is possible to every boy in our broad land, who brings into the competition honesty and industry. We also present our readers with a series of illustrations, showing the various and pains-taking processes of manufacture of the world-famed SHAKER ExTRACT OF ROOTS, OR SEIGEL's SyRUP–made by the Shakers, of Mt. Lebanon, N. Y.--from the crushing of the crude material to the shipping out to the suffering millions of earth the finished medicine. 47 * . . . . Azº. | * . The New York Trade /ournal, referring to the Shakers as manufacturers of medical preparations, says: * & & * Nº. “All their many great improvements and discoveries have been made without the braggadocio and flourish of trumpets usually attendant upon the invention of other people. It is well known that they have made the cultivation of herbs for medicinal purposes, a study for upwards of fifty years; their patient, unobtrusive and persevering investigations into the properties of plants adapted for medicinal preparation, have done much for the “Vegetable Materia Medica” of the world. Experiments in the line of medical botany have for many years been conducted for the benefit of mankind by the Shakers in their quiet characteristic manner, and we are glad to state that these experiments have not been without happy results.” & * *. º * >> one in America doubts for a moment any statement the Shakers may make.

The bottles contain more doses than any other medicine in the market at the same price. . ſº The Shakers have had an experience of Aºſty Years in growing and prepar. ing Roots, Barks and Herbs. • .

The first kind attention he re- collected to have received from any human being was from a gentleman in Scotland, whose little son had fallen overboard from a skiff, and our hatless and shoeless boy had plunged into the water to save him. With this gentle- # man he had a home for sev- § eral years. As he grew up, his thoughts turned to the business of life, to striking out for himself and earning a living. Being in a mining country, he naturally took to that occupation. But Thomas Briggs was born to be a leader, and he soon aspired to something er-ground miner, although at this time he could neither read or write. Without money, without teachers, and without books, he nevertheless set about the enterprise of learning to read and Write.

He then became a contractor for sinking Shafts to deep mines for various owners of properties in the mining districts. little property, and obtained a comfortable home. In the meantime he had married, and was soon blessed with a little family of children, which brought joy and happi- Iness to his humble fireside. this increasing family he toiled continu- Ously, and often in weather. any hardship. In this he misjudged. Taking a severe cold he returned home one night too ill to eat and too hot and feverish to sleep. His head felt as if it would burst.

Although he was short- ly able to go out and resume business, still he was not well. He would have frequent attacks of illness, and be confined to the house for days at a time, and these ill turns came on oftener and oftener. gan to have dizziness, or vertigo, so bad that he was often in danger of falling when rising up suddenly from his chair. His tongue became coated, and a disagree- able taste destroyed all inclination to eat, and even what food he took lay like a load On his stomach and made his breathing difficult, with the more minuteness in order to show the noble and generous character of the Being a hard-working, resolute man, he acquired a To provide for cold and stormy Being a strong and robust man, he imagined that he could endure almost He soon be- man, for it will be seen that in all his long years of physical suffering and men- tal distress, Thomas Briggs never faltered in his devotions to his family. At the solicitations of friends he called a physi- cian, but either the medical men mistook the nature of the disease, or their medicines were not adapted to his complaint, for he continued to grow worse and worse. His bowels had now become so sluggish and costive that he seldom had a movement without the aid of physic. The blood was thick and stagnant. The stomach and liver had become wholly deranged. The kid- neys, too, sympathized with the disease, for the secretions had become thick, Scanty and high colored. His disease may have thus been called dyspepsia or indigestion, and every one knows how much suffering this dreadful disease entails. His appetite was gone, and what food he did eat dis- tressed him. After eating there was dis- agreeable eructations, or belchings of wind, caused by the fermentation of the food in the stomach. Frequently he would throw up what food he ate soon after taking it, for his stomach was so much diseased that he could not retain it. But during all this distress and suffering he had never yet lost his patience and equanimity of mind, and was ever kind and affectionate to his fam- ily; his only anxiety seemed to be for their welfare. * - But the little savings that he had laid by for his family were fast wasting away. A small inlet with a large outlet soon empties a reservoir; so did the large expenditures with Small earnings soon exhaust the capi- tal of our noble friend. The remedies he was taking did him no good. He was fast wasting away. Sometimes he would have such a faint, “all-gome,” distressed feeling at the pit of the stomach that he felt g” | like giving up in despair, for neither We speak of the poor man's sufferings | food nor drink would relieve this feel- ing but for a short time, when it would return again to depress him still [Continued on \ 4. •eeeeeeeeeeeepeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeººeeeeeeeeeeeeees } º Af %. , 3, º | ©6 Wºººººººººoºººººoooooooooooooooooeeeeeeeeeee oeeeeee 99. 6696.666,666,666,600606996009 O ...I'm glad Billy had sense to marry a 3 settled old maid,” said Grandma Winkum & at the wedding. “Gals is hity tity, and 3 widders is kinder, overrulin, and upsettin': 3 | Old maids is kinder thankful and willin' 3 to please.” - ITS EIFFICA C Y PRO PED. 59 BROADWAY, NEw York, March 23, 1883. ) Mr. A.

The state of his disease had now so weakened his mind that for the first time he began to be peevish, and almost as fretful as a child, and even push his little children away from him as though he could not en- dure their playfulness, or eventheir caresses. His hands and feet had become cold and Sticky. His flesh was wasting away, and the skin put on a dark, dirty appearance, so common in cases of stomach and liver diseases. t • Finding that the medicines were doing him no good, he abandoned everything of the kind, after having tried several medical men of eminence. He often said, at a later period, if he could have found at the out- set the remedy that finally effected his cure he would have avoided years of distress and suffering. But disease, left alone, walks fast and always down hill. He stooped as he tottered about his house with a stick, and when he would try to straighten up and stand erect to ease his tender stom- ach, the weight of his clothes seemed to crush him down again, for his shoulders and chest were so tender and sore that he could not bear his clothes to touch him. His sides, shoulders and back were now subject to constant pains. There was a sensation in the throat which caused a con- stant desire to clear it by hacking and spit- ting. His breath was offensive and the taste in his mouth was nauseating. The whites of his eyes were tinged with yellow and his countenance was sallow. Friends and neighbors who saw him would say, “Poor Tommy Briggs will soon pass away.” Rheuma- He was really dying by inches. tism and palpitation of the heart, that gen- erally follow long cases of diseased liver and kidneys, were now almost constantly present, so that he could scarcely hobble across the room. His cough had become dreadful, with a greenish-colored expectora- tion. His breathing had now become like that of an asthmatic. ing their mother to supply the absolute His money was now exhausted, and the little children were aid- | •eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesºsºstºevssesseeeeees: wants by working in the mill, he being no longer able to perform even the light task some kind friends had provided him in the early days of his confinement to the house. sympathetic nature and noble magnanimity of the man, for it is a fact that should not be omitted that in this his dire extremity, with no money, with no strength to earn bread, and with the wolf of want staring in at the door, he gave a home to a poor fatherless and motherless boy, and let him share his scanty living, and to this day the little orphan boy has a home with the fam- ily, made comfortable by the surprising re- covery and subsequent success of this noble man. It is an old saying that it is always dark- est just before day. It is a true saying as applied in the case of Our friend. Reduced to absolute want in purse, and to a mere skeleton in body, his mind dejected, there appeared to be no room for hope. One day a friend handed him a little book issued by an American in London, setting forth the virtues of certain plants and roots that grew in America, and which had been accidentally discovered by an old German nurse to be not only harmless, but a po- tent remedy for indigestion. The Ameri- can was sending Out the medicine on trial without the payment of any money. Mr. Briggs' eye rested on the following clause in the little book: “Being a stranger in a strange land, I do not wish the people to feel that I have the least disposition to take. advantage of them. I feel that I have a remedy that will cure disease, and I have so much confidence in it that I authorize my agents to refund the money for the first bottle sold to a party in case no benefit is derived therefrom. I want no one's money unless they receive their money's worth.

Although the American had been willing to trust poor people with small boxes of the medicine at a time, amounting to one or two pounds, he felt a little staggered to receive Briggs' request for one hundred pounds’ worth on credit, especially when it was accompanied with the statement that he was not worth wrote aching stops, when relief comes, as well as the most profound man in the realm. The argument was conclusive that education is not necessary for a realizing Sense of pain. The result of Mr. White's visit was in extending to Briggs the desired amount of credit, and who thereupon moved his family to the neighboring village of Bacup, where were better business facilities, and entered upon a new career. In this enter- prise he was entirely successful, extending | his trade largely through the northern part of England, and he finally developed such good business talent and inspired such a confidence, that when Mr. White required 3. a man to visit Australia to introduce tº the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's º Syrup (the name of the medicine in : question), Briggs was taken in preference 3, to all other applicants.

Mr. White, the American alluded to, thought enough of the matter, however, to jump on the train and go and see his unknown customer, who had done such a prosperous business, who had been so “faithful in few things,” and more- over spoke in such glowing terms of the medicine. | Mr. White took Briggs quite unawares, calling on him unexpectedly at his humble home in Shawforth. Briggs' eyes filled with tears on seeing Mr. White, and he be- gan to apologize for the desolate appear- ance of his little home.

To this end Mr. White sent a special agent from London to thoroughly investigate the He first case and report the actual facts. called on the chemist, whom he found an eminent citizen and a conservative business man, not easily impressed by the enthusi- 'asm of others even though it might be about the merits of the goods in which he dealt. The chemist sent one of his clerks to conduct the agent to the house of the widow Thomas and her son, about a mile distant from his chemist shop. Fortu- nately both were in at the moment of call- ing, and though in humble life and sur- roundings, they were more than ordinarily bright persons. *The young man sat and respectfully listened to the narrative of his mother, whom he seemed to regard with tender affection as the being who had not only given him existence, but still watched over him with the same solicitude as when he lay in the cradle, confirming all she re- lated with expressive emphasis, and only correcting her in the unimportant matter of dates. They had lived in that village about eigh- teen years. Her son, she said, had been as healthy and had grown up like other chil- dren of the village, and had been to school and had learned as well as others, and would not to-day turn his hand to any of them for reading and writing. But there were other children, and the ambition of the boy and the family necessities hastened him too early into the Coal mines, the prin- cipal industry of the neighborhood. A few years of hard labor in the damp and gloomy underground resulted, as one might natu- rally expect, in physically prostrating her good and faithful boy. First asthma de- veloped itself (the result of indigestion, as the sequel will show) under which he suf- fered nine years, during which time he could never lie in bed, but slept in a stoop- ing or reclining posture in an arm-chair. 9 @ 9 e o ee e 9 @ 9 o'ee QQ 9 @ 90 Q & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 9 @ 9 @ 900 & 000 e o O 9 e o 6 eq e 9 @ 96 ºr vºmy ºr ºvºmy After several years laboring under his asthmatic burden, rheumatism was added to his sufferings, and for three years he was confined to the house. Every joint in suc- cession became inflamed and swollen, his blood watery and his skin transparent. He was treated during the three years by many physicians in succession. Besides asthma, and rheumatism, which were apparent enough to anybody, they finally declared that he had heart disease of a chronic na- ture, and beyond all power to cure. Thus given up by the doctors, all hope, except the final spark of a mother's, for her child, seems to have gone out like a candle. One evening, after some young friends hadnade a call upon her poor boy, and he had lapsed into a little, doze in his chair, she sought a little mental diversion and change of her thoughts in the evening paper. Singularly, her eye rested for a moment on an adver- tisement of Shaker. Eactract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup. “James,” she said, prophetically, “I have found a medi- cine that will cure you. But, my boy, how shall I get a bottle. I have not a penny by me at present * the young man, “you never did fail yet, and I know you will find some way to get it.” James, just before he had become confined to the house, had got him a new pair of trowsers, but had never worn them. “I took them,” said Mrs. Thomas, “to the sign of the “three balls,” and pledged them for enough to get One bottle of the medi- cine, and returned home with it. After taking half a bottle he could lie in bed, and in a few weeks,” said she, “that boy was out doors, the swelling had left his joints, the pain and tenderness had left his limbs and flesh, and he could breathe as well as anybody.” Two bottles of the Syrup in a few weeks had accomplished all this, so they both say, and religiously believe. The young man said that after a few weeks he felt he was able and must return to work, and begin once more to help his mother, [Continued on page 12.] \ * @ •ee wood sooooooeeeeeeeeººwº “Mother,” said . . \ * } 4? . - - - eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetē863eeeeeeeeeooeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee | * QP r © Purs wit of Knowledge. 3 © Maud.—“What kind of a cow is © a Texas steer, pa?” 3. % Pa—“Steer! steer!

Mrs. T.'s eyes sparkled when she said, “ We have given | you the real facts, and if you think it was not Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup, what was it? My son-in- law, Thomas Hole, took it for rheumatism, and he don’t have it any more; and I know many others about here that have been cured by it.” - These two cases of Thomas Briggs and James Thomas were the result of aggra- vated indigestion.

The Second, a LAXATIVE, which acts upon the liver, and carries off through the bowels the impure substances of the blood, which are not passed off by the water, by the sweat, and other outlets; routing out from the system all foul humors from the blood, and leaving that vital current pure and wholesome. The Third, a SODORIFIC, which opens the pores of the skin, and allows the corrupt substances near the surface to pass out in the form of sweat, producing always a soft and natural condition of skin, keeping the oil ducts and sweat glands always healthy and strong to carry on both sensible and insensible perspiration. The fourth, a DIURETIC, which acts upon the kidneys, enabling them to carry off in the urine the impurities which in health should pass off by the water passages, thus [Continued on page 14.] Q 60000eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee s 1 - | *********eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeoºse-eeeeeeee: THE SHAKER FAMILY ALMANAC, 1885. 13 - - O © O G © © O O © Q © © © © © © © Q Q Q & © º Q.

BARBER, Superannuate Member St. Louis Con. M. E. C. D/SEA. SES OF THE BOWELS. The bowels in a healthy state carry off all solid form. Sometimes the main channel become choked up by slime on the coat- ings of the intestines, which gives rise to constipation and irregularity of the bowels. If the bile is not thrown out from the liver in sufficient quantities the bowels become costive, and the membranes of the bowels become weak and irritated. When much irritation exists diarrhoea follows, because the bowels have not the strength to do what is required of them. Inflammation follows: The fundamental cause of this irregularity is Indigestion. The Extract of . Roots, or Curative Syrup, will remove this Indigestion and cause the fresh new blood to become pure and healthy. Cured. After a Sickness of Thirty Years. Greenwood P. O., Moore Co., N.

I was persuaded by your agent, Mr. Spivy, to try a bottle of your Shaker Ex- tract, or Curative Syrup; I did so, and before I had used ºne bottle I could lie on my ieft side without pain or difficulty of breathing, and was benefited in many other respects. I then purchased another bottle, the last one your agent had on hand, and have used the most of that and feel greatly benefited by its use...I am about years of age and attending to a mill, and can tote and handle a three bushel sack of corn or meal with more ease now than I could a bushel Sack before using the medicine.

When the stomach is too weak to prop- erly digest the food, the person so diseased is usually afflicted. Dyspepsia shows itself in very many disagreeable forms, but more frequently in diseases of the stomach after eating, soreness of the stomach, beating and trembling of the stomach and sides, a sense of fullness, headache, dizzi- ness, bad breath, loss of appetite, difficulty in breathing, restlessness, nervousness, loss. of strength, etc. The food remains in the stomach until it becomes corrupted, which poisons the blood, and produces the most painful and distressing feelings. The stomach loses its tone, becomes in- flamed and filled with slime and mucous. This produces giddiness, sick headache, choking up of the circulation, and pressure upon the brain. The Curative Syrup cleanses out the corrupt and noxious matters from the stomach, and strengthens the stomach to dissolve and digest the food, increases the flow and strength of the gastric juice, and produces harmonious action between All the Organs work in concert—no jarring, no Overtaxation of one organ above another, which always damages the nervous system and works havoc and decay. Strength to the stomach, invigoration of the liver, and tone to the bowels must nec- essarily follow the use of the Curative Syrup. It corrects acidity, and promotes a flow of healthy gastric juice, which dis- Continuod on page 18.] wººeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! º ºeºee bºoooº 560 00 Q @@ 24 & 53 63 º'o 2 o'So to 30¢9636 699.9996696,966 ecocoe Qee (9 ed eeeoo 606 (99.6660099 - -- - - © THE SHAREI.

RHEUMA T/S//. Never before has there existed a remedy as unfailingly successful in rheumatic affec- tions as the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup. It lubricates the joints, promotes the Secretions of the fluids neces- sary to remove the stiffness of the muscles, removes hardened deposits in the joints, | greases the machinery of nature, and makes it move easily. One or two packages of the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup, will do more than a hogshead of liniments, for it carries out of the circulation the acrid humors in the blood upon which rheuma- tism depends, removes inflammation, sore- ness and stiffness of the muscles. g A short trial will convince the most dis- couraged that it is all that is claimed for it. Ǻ"The Seeds of disease—the worn-out of any service in carrying on the functions of life, should be carried out of the body as | fast as they are generated. The occasional use of the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's Curative Syrup will clear out all these passages of the body and purify them.

The hollow cheek, the sunken eye, the Sallow countenance, the dark circles underneath the eyes, all are indicative of weakness of the female organs of generation, which are speedily overcome by the use of the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel’s Syrup. Its use removes obstructions, brings the hue of health to the countenance, and should be used by females suffering from the various diseases to which the sex is Subject, such as leucorrhoea, or whites, fall- ing of the womb, bearing down sensations, etc. Two or three bottles of the Shaker Ex- tract of Roots, or Seigel’s Syrup, will bring the blush to the cheek, and vivacity and elasticity to the system. Flagging spirits are restored, and new life and vigor take the place of the loss of energy, sickness and decay. Whites or Lewcorrhoea. Tatesville, Tenn., July 16, 1883. Mr. A. J. WHITE, 54 Warren *ā.

Clear out these scavengers by the use of the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup, that which so paralyzes them that they cannot cling to the side of the bowels, and when the corrupted matter is passed off by the use of the Shaker Ex- tract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup, they must also go with it. They and their nests are effectually destroyed and passed off. Mothers should give their children occa- sionally doses of the Shaker Extract of Roots, or Seigel's Syrup, that worms may not breedin corrupt substances of the body. Foul matters breed worms; cleanse the system of impurities. Worms cannot breed in healthy substances, for they grow and thrive on the filth and corruption of the body. JBest in the Woºld.

The quantity may be regulated by the patient, who will bear in mind that suffi- cient needs to be taken to operate on the bowels two or three times each day. The blood will thus be purified, the sweat-glands of the skin will be opened, and the flesh made soft and healthy as an infant's. The kidneys and liver will do their duty, and all humors of the blood will be driven out of the system, and the body purified and re- stored to a sound and healthy condition. The medicine must be taken instantly after eating, so that it will become mixed with the food while in the stomach. The usual dose is from fifteen to thirty drops, taken INSTANTLY after eating; but it must be taken in sufficient quantities to operate two or three times on the bowels. Very delicate persons should begin with ten drops, and increase as the nature of the case may require. The fluid extract in bottles is in very strong and concentrated form, and is equal to a pound of the herb. PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE PROOF.

What is this Disease that is Coming Upon us 2 Like a thief at night it steals in upon us unawares. The patients have pains about the chest and sides, and sometimes in the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth has a bad taste, especially in the morning. A sort of sticky slime collects about the teeth. The appetite is poor. There is a feeling like a heavy load on the stomach; | sometimes a faint, all-gone sensation at the pit of the stomach which food does not sat- | isfy. The eyes are sunken, the hands and feet become cold and claimmy. After a while a cough sets in, at first dry, but after a few months it is attended with a green- The patient feels tired all the while, and sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is a giddiness, a Sort of whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly. The bowels be- come costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stag- nant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yellow; the urine is scanty and high- Colored, depositing a sediment after stand- ing. There is frequently a spitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste and Sometimes with a sweetish taste; this is frequently attended with palpitation of the heart; the vision becomes impaired, with spots before the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-third of our popu- lation has this disease th some of its varied forms. It has been found that medical men have mistaken the nature of this dis- ease. Some have treated it for a liver com- plaint, Some for dyspepsia, others for kid- © | ney disease, etc., etc., but none of these Dear Sir:-Your medicine still gives good satisfac- y 3. 2 2 S various kinds of treatment have been at- tended with success.

New York. t Dear Sir:-My daughter, Sarah F. Walker, last January was confined to her bed, and had been for twelve months, was under treatment of three emi- nent physicians, who said she had Consumption and Heart Disease. The doctors and all that saw her said she was bound to die. But I persuaded her to take your Shaker Extract of Roots, and after having used two and a-half 60 cent bottles, she was -2stored to perfect health, and said she felt better than she had for five years...My daughter is now living and §§ good health, but had it not been for your medicine she would have been now dead. Yours, etc., REV. M. MELTON. Any one doubting this can write to Sarah F. Walk- er, Crofton, Ky. N. B.--If you think this worth printing, please do SO; if not, give it to the waste basket. * NoTE.—Many persons who suppose they have con- Sumption really, have nothing but dyspepsia. The above case is an instance. Scrofuſa and 0 ther Skin Diseases. Scrofula is an hereditary disease of the blood, and shows itself in many dangerous forms, chiefly in swellings about the glands spine, ulcers and old sores which defy heal- ing. Nearly all cases of Consumption and Ca- | tarrh result from a scrofulous condition of the blood, which has either been trans- mitted from the parents or has been devel- oped by sudden cold, checking of perspira- tion, etc. Scrofulous persons should not delay to get rid of that element in the blood, which is liable at any moment to show itself in an alarming manner, and give rise to symptoms more distressing. The Shaker Extract of Roots, or Sei- gel's Syrup, cleanses the system of the unhealthy and corrupt element in the blood, and the use of one bottle will con- vince any one suffering with this distress- &= a w = u------º-º-º: ing humor that it can be cured by purifica- … *. zº- * a º … * … * …- *.
