\n Event Of Interest. »«LL SPEAK &WAISE ALIKE. The Case of Mrs. M. THOMPSON (by a LOCAL RKrOKTlilt.) . ITcaiing of an event which will probably intonst every mender of tho community j who rends it, a rcpoilcr went to Park- | j-tritt, Kensington, J.)i!i!(din, whore ill's. Mary T! somps'ui lives, and asked (hut lady if it was a fact that she had lately effected a i apivl recovery fioin a serious illness. j "It is q'ii!o true," answered Mrs. Thotrip- , son, 'and Ihe more I think of it the more grateful I feel loA;>nls Clements Tonic for Uie good health it lias brought me. Just lifter Christmas I had ail attack of scarlet fever, which left me in tin awfully weak condition. My nerves seemed to have completely broken down, for I got excited at the least thirtg, and when anything occurred to give me a start, I could feel myself quivering all That was not the worst, of it, however, for my mind was generally uneasy as to what was going to happen next, and the things I used to think aboir were never of a very cheerful nature." " l'rohably your digestion was not as good as it might have been." " Vou are right there. It was far from being good, anil that is where I thought the real trouble used to l'e. In the mornings I got up with a bitter taste in mv mouth, and oh, how sick and feeble I felt! I was thoroughly prostrated with weakness, and it w'ould have been madness to have tried to do my housework. 1 had to get assistance, of course, and the mere fact of knowing that 1 was so helpless in my own household affairs was the source of considerable worry to me. Ilow I longed to be able to sit down and oat a decent meal again, so that I might get a lit! Li stronger! but at that time I do not suppose it would have mattered how much or how little I ate, considering that I could digest nothing at all." " How lid you feel when you had taken some refreshment ?" " Very unoomforta'de indeed, about the chest, which seemed to be overweighted so much that my breath did not come freely, and the stomach was made uneasy with gases that seemed to come from the food. But the headaches I had were as bad as they could be, and often and often I had attacks of giddiness, which made me in constant dread of them coming on again, because I was so powerless under them. Palpitation of the heart served me very badly, too, and my nervous fears always bvc a more unwelcome nspe.'t when that trouble seized me, for there is no knowing what such things may load to. At least, that is the way I used to turn matter! over in my own mind ; so you sec that all these things helped to make me more and more depressed in spirits. A whitish coating came over my .tongue, and it was really extraordinary how dim my sight got at times, but the main anxiety of my existense was the everlasting cvaporatiui of my vitality. My sleep got very scanty, hut even if I slept, all night, which very seldom happen.d, I felt equally tired next day, so that nothing seemed able to console or comfort me." " Not even the medicines you were taking," No ! not even those to any extent. Sometimes I got a trillng amount of ease from the doctor's physic, but it did not last long, and then I was as bad as ever again. There was nothing like Clements Tonic fe>r building n,cup and driving away those feelings of lassitude and depression which lmd hung like a cloud over my life. You can imiigine how greedily I took each dose of Clements Tinic when it became apparent that it was —unlike everything else I had tried—able to cure my nervousness, and was I not delighted to find it giving me a splendid appetite as well ? A few bottles of Clements Tonic made another womjtn of me altogether, for it restored my digestion and set me free from headaches and all pains, and for regulating the system and restoring strength it was unquestionably the best medicine I had ever taken. Its action upon my digestive organs was so sure that there was nothing left undone, and in future it will be my pleasure to recommend all sufferers to use Clemonts Tonic, and tlicy will never regret doing so." "The paper is the best medium." "Sol think, and you are at liberty to publish my story in any way you desire." STATUTORY DECLARATION.

The Broken Ilill mines arc working under the new conditions set by the Arbitration Court, and nobody notices any (litt'erence. In fact, the companies adopted the new rules weeks before they were obliged to do so under the award—pretty conclusive proof that the miners don't get any benefit out of the now conditions at the expense of the owners, during the hearing of ; the case, some of the men growled about losing their Saturday afternoons, owing to the day shift ending at 4 p.m. The Court had an idea that this could be Aery easily got over; without fixing the matter, it recommended that shifts should be changed at 6 a.m., 2 p.m., and 10 p.m., instead of 8 a.m., 4 p.m., anil midnight. But when a vote was taken on the Arbitration Court's suggestion, the men decided by an enormous majority against any change. The fact is that to come "oIT shift" at 2 o'clock would give the miner his Saturday afternoons all right, but to have to go on at 10 p.m. instead of midnight all the week would break into many an evening's fun—and that was the other small thing which the Court hadn't considered.— Bulletin.
