Th« Gas* of Mr. ©. BOUQHTON. (■7 A DUHBDIN RBPOBTSR.) It is exceedingly difficult to got an actual acquaintance with the constitution of a country unless one has live;l for a time in tace-to-face view of its operation. Often the exact meaning of the words employed to describe the working of a constitution can only be got on the spot, and so it is with matters concerning the individual members of every home. To gain an accurate insigl.! into affairs that once affected Mr Clement, Dough ton, of No. 58 Forth-strect, Dunedin, ft reporter called at that gentleman's residence and enquired:; "Is it a fact that you were once ailing with indigestion, and that you are now quite cured ?" ( "Tbat is so," answered Mr. Bough ton, •'and it is to Clements Tonic that my gratitude is due for being in such splendid acalth at the present time. It was when 1 ras living at Tuapeka West, about four or feve miles from Lawrence, where I was porkinjc, that my sufferings began, a\i<( a Fellow-workman put me on to taking tin reinedv tnat cured me." " Had you been trying any other medi•mo before you took Clements Tonic ?" "I had taken several kinds, but they had no good effect; so that for fully fiv* mouths I had to persevere with my work under most unfavourable circums'an'/cs. My appetite got so frn.il ihat, I scarcely evei enjoyed my meals, and many a day I had not the least inclination for food. It does not take a great deal of that sort of business to reduce a man's strength, as I foun i out to my sorrow, and when sleeplessness als* started bothering me my vitality ran out %'tl trie more quickly. In this way I sooi* bfcanio so languid that I had no desire for work at all, and with the feeling of drowsi* aess that settled upon me I was not in the right frame to take interest in anything. Nearly the whole of some nights pussed leforo I could get to sleep, and when I woke ;p it was usually with a nasty headache, that tormented me for the rest of the day. •\ hitter tasie in my mouth gave my morning meal an unpleasant flavour, and after eating ever so li tale I was afflicted with a* he-u y sensation in the chest, which seemed to in crferc with my breathing. But that Was not the worst part uf my troubles, as my stomach used to become filled with wind that arose from the undigested food, and the pains that also came tin re were severe in the extreme. A new experience for me, and one that I did not like either, was to find that my nervous system was iireatly run down, for when I had done a little exercise my nerves were quite shaky, and at other times they started to trembl* if anything occurred that gave me a start. Often a strange mist gathered before my eyes avid gave me the impression that little •lark specks lik* grains of soot, were danciijg in front of me, while, to make my life still more miserable, there were aches in my loins that sometimes made walking quits inconvenient. lam not altogether sura what ca.uy.od it, although I suppose it was one of my I.- Mgestion symptoms ; but there was a pain right under my shoulder bladei) that I could have done very well without; yei; I had to bear every one of my ailments right up to the time I s'arted taking Clements Tonic, and then, I am thankful to say, I kkhi began to feel easier. Upon my word, I never experienced such a rapid change for the b< iter in all my life, and my speedy recovery affords emphatic proof of the curing capabilities of Clements Tonic, which I can safely say is a genuine remedy for ailment* similar to the ones I suffered frovn." " Can you remember the first benefits rou derived ? " " To tell you the truth, I felt more vigorous and cheerful after taking a couple ol botths of Clements Tonic than I had been for a long time, and the appetite I got wa? surprising. By-aud-bye I noticed that my food was going through a proper process o) digestion, for the wind and stomach paint off annoying me, and the heaviness had gone from n:y chest as well. For curing headaches and making me sleep, besides removing all pains and putting rry nervous system into splendid fettle, I shall always bear pleasing recollections of Clementl Ti nic, and you may publish these facts fo* others' benefit in any form you !;>ra."
