WHY IS IT ?
. jVViiY is it that death should come before the tillofctad ago of " three score and ten," and why so many millions of human beings uever live to three score and five, and why that not one iv evory thousand live to three Bcoro years ? We kill ourselves. Many interesting particulars are found in tables of physiologists and writers on hygiene. The eminent physiologists, Haller and Buffon, present interesting particulars on the subject of longevity. They troat it in two ways, historical and physical. The historical side of tho recitation of all facts known of the naturally ordinary and extreme duration of life and the physical aspect of the problem involves the contemplation of the great natural phases of development of the species, digestion, period pi growth, and length of life. 1 Mankind pays too libtle attention to the warning voice of nature, signs of approaching calamity are unheeded, the disorganisation of the affected organ increases and after a time becomes insensible, then no pain is felt and the sufferer is deluded into the belief that he has shaken off the disease. Nothing could bo raore erroneous ordangerOU3, for the complaint has only passed on ons further stage towards the end, and nature ceases to send those warning aches and pains as they were unnoticed when sent; the debility and weakness increases, -however, and nervousness, loss of appetite, and general languor come on and a cold is caught in the kidneys, lungs or 3iver and another life is sacrificed toßright's /disease, Consumption, or some other serious and fatal diseaae. Scoffers can talk aa thoy like, at the virtues claimed for Clements' Tonic, but even the most prejudiced men know i f ; is genuine and doea possess merits no other medicine over, did, as instanced in the.following case:—"For the past four years I have been s. great sufferer from severe pains in the back and left side, being at times quite unable to do any work or even walk about. I suffered in this way until ib became quite unbearable, and in FobSruary, 1889, I consulted a physician, who ■treated me for seventeen months, and dur!ing thab time I suffered tho severest torture under his treatment and instead of improving continued to get worse. He at last, ' I have done all J. can and you will never bo better.' This drove me to despair and I went under another doctor'B treat.merit for four months and took about 30 bottles of medicine, but with no result. I t?as giving up all hopes when I read of the Wonderful cure 3 effected by Clements' JTonic, and on nay husband's advice I tried It, and after fcho use of only three bottles I Was quite a different woman. I have taken 15 bottles, and ieol as wo 11 and strong as Ever and can do my work with ease and pleasure, whereas it was a great trouble before using Clements' Tonic. 1 can now also walk for miles without fatigue. Before taking this medicine I had often suffered with Neuralgia for weeks at a time and could never get any relief, but since taking Clements' Tonic ihave never had an attack of it. As a result of my experience I bavo rnado pleasure in recommending it to ail afllictod. -Mr 3S. E. Baker, Swan Stieot, Morpeth, N.S. W." Reader:—ls it any wonder interested people should be jealous of Clements' Tonic when its patrons write such spontaneous praise as that? yet there is not a nittil bag comes out out* wuy but what brino-s uf similar k>tl.ers. F M. Clements, 212 a'Ceckett-:-tre;:t, Melbourne.
