fill 111 &T OTHERS* 019 SMO if Mr. R. M* FLETCHER. %n A VOCAL BIPOBflB.) Abeatato hunger is not a trial which it uually familiar in this country, and howevei much imagination, may take the place oi experience the realisation of iU terrors cmnot be vary vivid unless they have been endured ; but when all the evils of life art reduced to their elementary forma, tickneaa la undoubtedly the most real, ana it is to save our fellows from hardships in that respect thafc such aid as the following was solicited by a reporter from Mr. Robert Henry Flet«h*r, of 9 Hope street, Dunedin, who said: "Some four years baok ray health was in a very queer state indeed. It was after the busy season of Christmas time that I found my nerves had collapsed under the heavy strain, but I was in hopes that the rest ,\ cvould get during the holidays might have the effect of bracing me up again. It was not to be, however, and instead of jetting better I got considerably worse." " You mean that other complications arose?" suggested the pressman. "Just so ; for one thing I experienced the disadvantage of losing my appetite, as 1 eoald not eat anything with the least degree ot relish, and the unfortunate part of it all was, that the email quantity I did partake of did not do me any good. the reverse, in point of fact, for then I had all the unpleasant sensations of indigestion to con* tend with, not the least aunoying of which was a groat sense of oppression in my chest, as if what 1 had swallowed had stopped there and turned to stone. Troubles were further augmented through the fermentation of the food, which brought about a very uncomfortable sensation in the stomach when it became filled with wind, and 1 suffered very much with a sort of headache like a throbbing in my temples. It was a very unhappy Christmas for me, but I would not have minded that so much if 1 had only got better aud beentble to start work afresh. " You were suffering some time, then." " Yes, unfortunately ; and all the doctor's medicines and patent medicines oould not alleviate my distress jgl grew more languid and melancholy than ever. Signs of kidney disorders cropped up, and I was persecuted with acute pain 3 across the loins, which made it a misery to walk. A yellow fur spread across my tongue, showing the bad state of my internal organs, and 1 always had a rile taste in the mouth, in the mornings especially. Restlessness at nights was another thing that helped to increase my weariness, and 1 did not seem any better even when I did get a little sleep, for I felt so worn out at the beginning of each day that I did not care how things went. I used to have dreams like the nightmare, and when I got up from bed in the mornings my limbs almost ached for the want of strength. The doctor said it was my nerves that were causing all the trouble, and no doubt he was right, for they used to shake terribly, and another indication of my nervous affections was that my mind was always upset with thoughts that were never agreeable. I used to get one little worrying idea in my mind, and I could think of nothing else for hours. It was a life oi wretchedness that I was leading, and I am thankful that at last I purchased some Clements Tonic and set myself free." "How did you come to take Clements Tonic ?" r " Through reading some testimonials about it, and I think I ought to give one in return to guide those who are still suffering. It was a wonderful difference which Clements Tonic made in me, steadying my nerves, making me eat, and overruling my internal disorders so completely that soon my digestion was all right. It was a perfect cure for flatulence and chest pains, and for making me sleep well I give Clements Tonic the palm over everything. In course of time the pains across my loins had taken their departure, and I was intensely gratified to find that my kidney disorders had been remedied, because the symptoms belonging to that complaint were gone, and with eaoh bottle of Clements .Tonic my vitality increased remarkably. When my nervous system was properly balanced again I had no anxious thoughts to worry me, and when I could resume work with the same vigor as before my illness I sincerely thanked Clements Tonic, for it had made » healthy man of me."
