The Finger Post POINTS The Right Road,

ftitt Qase of Mr. O. boughto* (Wt A DDNKDIN RBPOBTKB.) It is exceedingly difficult to get an actual ■•.cquaintance with the constitution of a 'country unless one has lived for a time in face-to-face view of its operation. Otter the exact meaning of the words employed tc describe the working of a con 3 itution can only be got on the spot, and so it :s with matters concerning the individual member! of every home. To gain an accurate iusigl.! into affairs that once affected Mi' Clement Coughton, of No. 58 Forth-street, Dunedin, a reporter called at that gentleman's residence and enquired : " Is it a fact that you «?ere once ailing with indigestion, and that you are now quito cured ? " "That is so," answered Mr. Bough ton. "and it is to Clements Tonic that my gratitude ia due for being in such splen Hd aoalth at the present time. It was when I was living at Tuapeka West, about four o* feve miles from Lawrence, where I was porkin<i that my sufferings began, and a fellow-workman put me on to taking th« reaiedy that cured me." M Mad you been trying any other modi"me before you took Clemtnts Tonic ?" "I had taken several kinds, but they had no good effect; so that for fully fiv* months I had to persevere with my work under most unfavourable circumstances. My tppetite got so fr<ul that I scarcely evei enjoyed my meals, and many a day I had uot 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 found out to my sorrow, and when sleeplessness alss started bothering me my vitality ran oui ail tne more quickly. In this way I soon became eo languid that I had no desire for work at all, and with the feeling of drowsifless that settled upon Bje I was not in tha right "frame to take interest in anything. Nearly the whole of some nights passed before I could get to sleep, and when I wok« '.ip it was usually with a nasty headache, that tormented me for the rest of the day. v bitter taste in my mouth gave my morn iiig meal an unpleasant flavour, and after eating ever so little I was afflicted with & h&4vy sensation In the chest, which seemed to iu erfere with my breathing. But that was nor the worst part of my troubles, as my stomach used to become filled with win'i that arose from the undigested food, ai:d the pains that also came there were severe in the extreme. A new experience for me, and one that I did not like, cither, was to find that my nervous system was jreatly run down, for when I had done a little cxerci.se my nerves were quite shaky, and at other times they started to trembla if anything occurred that gave me a start. Often a strange mist gathered before my eye's ai>d gave me ttie impression that littk lark specks, like; grains of toot, were danchig in front of me, while, to make my life still more miserable, there were aches in my loins that sometimes made walking quite inconvenient. lam not altogether sure what caused it, although I suppose it wae one of n,y indigestion symptoms ; but theM was a pain right under my shoulder blades that I could have done very well without; ye* V had to bear every one of my ailments right up to the time I started taking Clemen** Tonic, and then, I am thankful to say, I •>o'ui began to feel easier. Upon my word, I never experienced such a rapid change for the Ik t U v. 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 from." " Can you remember the first benefits fOV> derived?" " To tell yon the truth, I felt more vigo •:ous and cheerful after taking a couple oi botths of Clements Tonic than I had been for a long time, and the appetite I got was surprising. By-and-bye I noticed that mj ■'ood was going through a proper process orligestion, for the wind and stomach pains ■ • fi off annoying me, and the heaviness Imd 'one from n.y chest as well. Fos* curing iciidaches and making mo sleep, besides remo- ing al! pains and putting ny nervous ystem into splendid fettle, I shall always le.r pleasing recollections of Clement* r nie, and you may puh'n;)). these facts fw ithers' benefi! in any form ye*. '.;»«."
