Another Cabe ih D'uhedin. She Case of Mr. T, KlNft* v| C% « Itenedia Reporter.%

M a well-appmnt«d shop In Mainroad, South Dunedm, a-special representative iataiirriewed Mr. Thomas King, who carries on a booty-making business at the place mentioned. Mr. King made the following remarks:— $< . w ago frightfully! bad stated it Abputi fcktfy jwf fifty boils came out • onjf niy axnss|and| hands, aud you can still see.the inar'ka'" 1 of some that broke out on my wrists. Of course, I did not hare them all at oncers rijanie'one after another with such persistency that I commenced to think I was never going to get rid of them. The burning, aching agony of those odils made me very bad-tempered, Some days I could not work for the pa|p I was in, and eygnuwhen I was taking a spell I always f&|t "discontented aftdj,tfritableVC;At ; .iih,e sajhe time I suffered" greatly with my liver, a general depression of spirits coming over me, and I~looked onrthe black aide of everyfood I- ate neither~sustained nor mourished me. It merely lay in my stomach in an undigested state, and the wind that came from process of fermentation which was going on inside caused me a lot of cramping pains and obstinate fits of belching. * A dirty yellow colour appeared in my skin, toge* ther with a drowsy look in my eyes, which were very weak, with flitting specks before them. Another accompaniment of my disordered condition was a strangling sensation, in my throat, J a trouble which immediately followed the of my meals v I can account for this by haying a Weightjy feeding in my chest, as'if'l had swallowed a piece of bread which had turned to stone. Another. hurtful,; symptom ,waa a miserable aching pain across my brow; and, besides, I had sharp, stabbing tortures situated midday- between my; shoulders, with ; jimUariy! pains in my side. The unpalatable taste in my mouth was enough to make me., sick, indeed, I often thought I would retch jny heart up. My tongue, too, was none too ai*att. I believe that ! ong-continued . inaction iof my bowels had a great deal to do with both my blocd and my liver being out of order." "Could you not rectify such a Email matter as that?" '■*"•'*■ - r

" I could get nothing to restore regularity in that respect. Several kinds of pills and medicines were;tried, but' I hey only had very violent and painful effects for a,time, a*i left me m a y. orse.fix than ever. I was: greatly'enervated and distressed by the loss ofcsleep. After being awake nearly all night I fo'* too fatigued and weak to raise my hj; miner, and when I did work I can assure you''it was greatly against my v. ill, as I had neither energy ; nor in-. Rlinn.tion for it. My nervous system was .?o upset that I could scarcely drive a nail: straight;,: and: I ,tremb'cd^:aU|-6vel|' : \ very often without anv realoii,? Wmi prospects of' getting dvell Ibkie, for my appetite died .^Mtialt^| I am sure I was a pitiable object to my eusfomers- as they carr.e in and out ef my shop, and as the boils continued, to, - appear.the most bf-my friends'' thought' they were incurable;. As all the medicines I had drank had no beneficial ■effect I lost heart'aiid let things go anyhow. I thought it better to submit bo the inevitable than worry myself to death."., ......... , : :C ,'

" Did you discontinue the use of medicine, Mr. King ?" " Yes, when I found they were useless. I had thrown to<> much nTone|r away already.,-. Then I wasip&rsuad«d to try something else. A friend said: ' Clements Tonic is the best medicine going,,, iYou, ought; to.:tfy ; i.t,'v>:Sur&-; enough I bought a .couple, of bottles, and I commenced to feel livelier. The nervous twitchings and indigestion trouble ceased, and I was able .to ;eat and .sleep well. My blood was purified'-'by-- Clements Tonic, the boils disappeared, and my internal gans'acted regularly.'" Strength gradually i-eturned, and after a course of C! enients Tonic -1 was perfectly, .sound." "I hope I may report your remarks?" .."You may publish them in any way you like."
