Another Case of General Debility. The Cai» of Mr. A. A. TROOP. (4> 0 St*cUU JJtftrUr,) -£ gentleman wen known in most of JNew Zealand's important towns is Mr. Alexander Abercromby Troop, now rawing in Sussex-street, finny Hills, Auckland. To the writer, who called at the above address, Mr. Troup made the following interesting statement: — I hare been a consistent sufferer from general debility for about eleven or twelve years. I have never been a particularly strong man, and I believe my debility to be hereditary. At all events | I am sure I have made myself much worse through too dose application to business, and not indulging In sufficient out-door exercise. In these days of keen competition a man has got to work hard, but my- experience hat taught me that it is a great mistake to overdo it. as a result of my incessant attention to business affairs my health broke down completely." JTja. what way were yon most affset'l commenced to fall away in weight, ana each day found me paler and winner than its predecessor. Then I had very acute headaches day and night. My head felt as though it was compressed within a tightened band. My physical strength gave way entirely, and 1 felt too weak and languid for my ordinary duties. I was never a voracious eater, but now. my appetite was very poor, and, indeed, I often turned away from food without tasting it. When I did eat a little I experienced much discomfort and considerable pain,, especially m the chert, where my food remained like a heavy load, showing my digestive organs were in a bad state. Instesd of j nourishing my system, the food I took turned sour in the stomach, causing a distention of that part of my anatomy, besides the formation of acrid gases. Everything had a bitter, disagreeable taste, from which my mouth was never free, and my tongue was thickly coated with a white substance, and very rough. Beading was a difficult matter, my eyes being deep and sunken, and the sight impaired. The drawn expression of my white face bore eloquent testimony to the fact that my sufferings were extreme, and when you learn that I could not even sleep at night you will not be surprised to hear that my illness made me look much older. Sharp pains about my shoulders and under my ribs were a source of great trouble, and I could not get over these difficulties in spite of taking only the moßt easily-digested substances. "Was your nervous system affected to any .extent?" , "Oh, yes. The debilitated condition into which I had fallen left my nerves in a very shattered state. The strain of too much mental work on an enfeebled constitution worked havoc with my nerves, which were always quivering and trembling. My greatest affliction at this time was despondency. I could not help looking at the black side of everything. I felt too broken-down and dispirited to interest myself in anything, ana my limbs fairly ached again from sheer weakness, which also had an injurious effect on my memory, and made me disinclined to work. " Other irregularities arose to «4d to my daily discomfort©, but I could gain no relief from my many ill», although I took remedies which were 'guaranteed* to cure." "You look in good health now." "I am glad to say that I eventually found a medicine which acted splendidly on my wrecked constitution, and I am sure that Clements Tonic reigns supreme as a restorative. When I commenced taking Clements Tonic I was greatly depressed, but a few doses gave me heart again. A remarkable change for the better came over me, and the pains in my shoulder and chest were relieved. The acute darting pains in my side disappeared, and my sickening headaches were also cured by Clements Tonic. I fe^t my nerves strung up and toned right through my system, besides having a return of my appetite, which helped to increase my .weight. My food digested satisfactorily, and I was glad of the sound sleep which' also came as a result of taking Clements Tonic, which set me up completely." "May I publish your statements P" "I owe my health to Clements Tonio, so you may publish these facts in any ** 7 '" " ■■■ STATUTORY DECLARATION.
