and the frightful palpitation continued so long that I often thought it could only end in death. My feeble appetite at Imgth flickered away altogether, I could not touch a morsel of food, no matter how temptingly prepared. An unnatural thirst made a cup of weak tea, or a drop of milk, the only refreshment I wanted, but even these proved uncomfortablo when I swallowed them." _ " What a sorry plight to he in 1" 11 Yen it was. And yet I got worse than thii, which is not unlikely, considering that I was suffering so lug. My disease played havrc with my nervous system. It rcquir d but lit.tle— sometimes nothing at all to set niy nerves in violent motion, and as I lay en mj bed I felt myself twitching convulsively. Whenever I wag in darkness 1 had a dread that some evil person was in clost proximity, but I daro not get up to strike a match and look. I tried a lot of medicines wl(ich claimed to be effective in cases like mine, but not one of them vi ai worth the paper they were wrapped in. They did not even succeed in restoiing regularity to ny bowels, neither did they free me from the dizr.ii-.eas and faintness which were my daily torments. My face was deathly pule, and there was nothing left of me but skill and bone." " Don't you think you should have taken to your bed ?" "So I did, as a matter of compulsion. I could not keep up any longer. Aly disease got me down properly. Reside*, I had several doctors attending me, and yet they could not cure me. Heaven only knows low much of their worthless medicines I drank, but I do know that my stomach became so frightfully weak that 1 could not d ink any more of their stuff. There seemed nothing for me but to drag on a miserable existence till the last spark of life was taken out of me by my disease." "You look as though you never h-.d an ailment in your life." " That is how I feel, I am glad to Bay. The wonderful transformation wns accomplished through nothing ebe but Glemonta Xonie, which a lady friend recommended nie to take. It appears that alio happened to hear what complaint it was that was g adually killing me, so she kindly came to tell me how she was one time nearly dead, and that Clements Tonic brought her to 1 fe again. The feeling of despair which had been hanging over me so long gave place to a gleam of hope, and by the time my first bottle of Clements Tonic was <mpty, I fch that I was saved from a premature grave, dements Tonic struck right at the root, of my disease—an evidence of which fact was shown by the gratifying decrease of the pains in my chest and stomach, and the twitching of my nerves soon cea*ed entirely The acute shafts of agony disappeared fmin my bt.ck; my headaches also becoming tortures of the past. My family and friends were astonished and delighted at the way I was pulling round. luueed, I could hardly realise that I was the same woman who, a few weeks back, had lost all interest in life. I ate heartily and slept well, and my face soon had a hoalthy colour. The old feelings of listlcssnessand denpondeney were driven away. I did not neglect one dose of Clements Tonic till I was made perfectly sound and strong by it. Not one symptom of my complaint las returned, so I can jafely say that Clements Tonic effected a permanent cure. My children have also been built up by Clements Tonic.
