In these days of talking dolls, telegraphs, ocean cables, telephones, microphones and other electric inventions, when the occurrences in one part ef the world aro telegraphed to the farthest point therefrom in one day, and when a traveller makes a journey right round the globe in 63 days, it takes something out of the common to startle a community, but the late experiences of Mrs Laure Mceller, are enough startle the dead. Mrs Moeller, who reeidea a* Newtown, N.S.W., is a native ot Germany and came to this country some years ago. She has suffered from Liver and Kidney complaints for years, and about three months previous to the present time was completely prostrated and unable to work; dropsy of the ankles and lower limbs haviDg set in. We diagnosed tbo case ourselves and can truthfully assert that it was a case of advanced dropsy due to relaxation and enfceblenaent of the membranes ot the Liver and Kidneys, which permitted the waste fluids to exude through them into the muscular tissue. We advised the use of Clements' Tonic and it ■was taken for some weeks and it has resulted in a complete cure. Mrs M α-llei , herself thus describes her case :—"Stanley Laundry, Georgina - street, Newtown, N.S.W. I can with confidence bear witness to the wonderful efficacy of Clements' Tonic in curing liver and kidney disease. I have long been a victim to indigestion (caused by liver complaint) and an affection of the kidneys. I suffered terribly from headaches, pains in the back and side, with obstinate constipation. No one except myself knowa what my sufferings have been. I was always tired and languid, with no ability or inclination to perform my daily work. My tongue was furred in a morning, and a sour taste in the mouth, and frequent vomiting ; one day I'would be pretty well and the next very distreseed ;or completely prostrated with a very confirmed languor. This went on until I was so ill I was completely done up. and quite unable to move. My ankles being swollen as thick as my thighs, I consulted physicians, all of whom pronounced the case one of Dropsy. They variously ascribed the cause to be heart, liver or Bright's disease. The kidneys were undoubtedly diseased; because the swollen ankles when pressed with the finger would leave a dent in the place for days, and it was easy to press the end of the finger an inch deep, when the bole would nob fill up for four days. I had heard of the wonderful curee effected by Clements' Tonic, and commenced its use. I took three bottles and the swelling in the ankles commenced gradually to subside. I continued the medicine and am now completely cured ; my ankles are their usual size, I have no aches nor pains and can do a good day's work with pleasure; my tired, aching feelings have all disappeared, and I; am confident I have been rescued from an untimely grave by the wonderful virtues of Clements' Tonic. My address is afthe head of this letter, and I will reply to any communications if a stamped envelope is sent with inquiry, as I consider it my duty to publish a record of my wonderful euro. Yours very gratefully, Laure Moslleb, " — Mrs Mceller's case is only a prototype of many others in this country. She obtained a cure by persistent treatment, and this is the only way chronic disease can be carecfc A half-hearted treatment is never satisfactory; you must continue the remedy for a contsiderable time if you want to cure longstanding cases. The tendency after a certain age is always towards decay, therefore if debility has been eating its way into! the system for months or years, it is very! unreasonable to expect one or two bottles to restore perfect health. All bad cases require protracted treatment.
