*A Narrative * ■ or ThoCas* Of Mrs. A. MOORE. ->„, ....,.- .......(fir A LOOAIi.B|tPOBTK».) . Enthusiastic as we always are over our ' u|asippat nchief ementi when anything directs •Jur attention particularly toward* them, we arc only too liable to forget all nbout them when tho excitement of the moment has Pooled. This also applies in private matters, bub it cannot be said of Mrs. Annie Moore, of Yelverton Terrace, Auckland, v vhoso remarks to our reporter were :— 1 "Itis a long time ago now— some twelve years, I think— since I got over the greatest trouble that.l ever had in all my life ; but in spite of the many years that have gone by lam ever mindful of the great blessings that accrued through using Clements Tonic, and for the sake of the afflicted I ought to make a public statement. It was a case of being thoroughly; run down with me, having no strength to do "my work, and so heavily depressed in spirits that I did not care about goiug anywhere or doing anything. Many m day I gob up feeling too exhausted to stand, and with such a vile taste that I turned sick at the sight of food." • *' Do you think that your liver was out of order ? " questioned the special. " I am sure of it, because I went to a -doctor and he said so. I do not know what the medicine was that he gave me, bub I do know this— -that it had no good "effect upon me ; and when I had been under his treatment a while I could see it was no uae, so I gave up going to him. After that I tdok to buying medicine from chemists,, which also turned out to be profitless ; for I took almost, everything obtainable without getting any better, unless it was a little ease that 1 sometimes got for a day or so." " Never any longer than that ? " "" Never ; and at last I was quite driven to despair. My appetite had dropped off • altogether, and I had become so feeble that I felt as if I wanted to lie down continually ; but the unfortunate part of it was that when I did go to bed I could not sleep. There was not the slightest particle of color in my face, and I had got go emaciated as well that I really thought I was going into consumption. Oh ! the horror of it was dreadful, and you can imagine the days of anxiety and suffering I put in with hopelessness staring me in the face because all the medicines were powerless to benefit me. My poor head was fairly racked with aches, and in course of time my vitality was so completely exhausted that sinking feelings came over me, aud before I could help myself I fainted and dropped down anywhere. " 1 "How fortunate not .to have met with a serious accident ?" " Wtosn'tl? But heaven knows my afflictions were great enough as they were, and don't you think I should be grateful to Clements Tonic for releasing me from such a' critical condition? Indeed, yes ; and many ,a one I have told who put to good use this experience of mine. Would you believe that T could not take food of any kind unless it-gave me a feeling in the chest as if a weight was placed there, and: with flatulence and shoulder pains I suffered terribly, aud was so nervous that I was startled several times a day- from no cause at all ; yet when I began taking Clements Tonic I gained ao much relief that I began to think my ailments were really curable after all, though up till then my opinions were quite the reverse. And, this remarkable improve* incnt was all traceable to the atlvice given by a gentleman who kept a grocer's store in Arch Hill. He said Clements Tonic was what I wanted, and truer words were never spoken, as not very long after starting with it I was quite free from headaches and the housework was nothing to me. The best sleep I had had for months came through using Clements Tonic, and what a peaceful, contented and cheerful feeling I had when I woke up ! It was grand ; and my appetite was restored and so was my digestion. In a few weeks I was as light-hearted and as healthy as any woman in the city — no faint* ing fits' or nervonsness to worry me — and up to the present day I have been equally sound and strong." ~ "A record like this should be useful.
