THE INFLUENZA.

The influenza is raging again this year with unprecedented deadliness. The paralising influences of this terrible malady have assumed the alarmiug dimensions of a plague The distempter is of a. powerfully destructive character, and shatters its victims with fearful suddenness. The severity of the visitation eclipses all previous attacks. The medical faculty fails to account for the outbreak, and is powerless to control its spread. Doctors, Nurses, and hospitals are doing everything possible for sufferers, but are overwhelmed by the multitude crying bitterly for relief. A dispatch from one town states that 300 people died in one day, this was about the daily average, and the streets were crowded with vehioles carrying dead to their last resting place ; and the sad vacancy of deith depressed evory household. Such trying limes as thete demand immediate attention. The doctors fail, and the rauny advertised cough and cold cures are only sedatives which interfere with the proper secretions of the respiratory tract. Recourse must be had to a genuine stimulating restorative, which, whilst curing his grip, will also streogthon and support th 3 patient, and no article the world has so far seen can compare to Clements Tonic for these effects. During the great! outbreak of influenza in Sydney iv 1890, over 50,000 bottles of Clements Tonic were consumed, and its praises were sung in every quarter as the disease was completely stamped out by the use of this remedy in four weeks. Such facts as this prove beyond the doubt of the most uubelieving sceptic, the value of Clements Tonic for such diseases. Mrs. M. Kellett, Parramatta, N.S.W. , writes : — " Sir,— Four years ago I naught a severe cold which settled -in my head and chest, and caused an incessant eongh and copious discharge of phlegm ; this brought on great weakness and debility. After considerable attention and doctors' treatment, the cough was relieved and finally cured, but the debility remained and seemed to defy the skill of the medical men and the power of medicine. I had no appetite, aud could acarcely eat a particle of fot>d, and was almost reduced to a skeleton, having entirely wasted away. I had taken pints of ood-iiver oil, malt extaacts, and oiher medicines without relief, when I was recomraeuded to take Clemente Tonic. I procured a bottle, and am thankful to say that I immediately began to improve ; I could eat better, and relish and digest what I did oat. I gained flesh every day, and my strength rapidly returned, and after six -week's treatment with Clements Tonic, I ft-lt a new woman altogether. I took Clements Tonic six months ago, and have never had any sickness since, and am only too glud to add my name to your list of grateful sufferers. " Remember you must get.th,e genuine " Clemeute >J Tonic, sold by ehemista, grocew and storekeepers, everywhere, ' •
