“To Cure La Grippe.”
The influenza is racing again this year with unprecedented dea r, liness. The paralysing influences of this terrible malady have assumed the alarming dimensions of a plague. The distemper is # of a powerfully des'motive character, and shatters its vie* tims with feirfull suddenness. The severity of the visitation eclipses all previous attacks, ahe mo lical faculty fails to account for the outbreak, and is powerless to control its spread. Doctors, Nurses, and hospitals are doing everything possible for sufferers, hut are overwhelmed by the multitude crying bitterly for relief. A despatch from one town states that 300 people died in one day, this was about the daily average, and the streets were crowded with vehicles carrying the dead to their last resting place ; and the sad vacancy of death depressed every household. Such trying times as these demand immediate attention. The doctors fail, and the many advertised cough and cold cures are only sedatives which interfere with the proper secretions of the icspiratory tract. Recourse must be had to a genuine stimulating restorative, which, whilst curing his grip, will also strengthen and support the 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 in 1890, over 50,000 bottles of Clements Tonic we,re consumed, and its praises were sung in every quarter as the disease was comple'ely stamped out by the use of this remedy in four weeks. .Such facts as this proves beyond the doubt of the most unbelieving sceptic, the value of Clements Tonic for such diseases. Mrs M, Kellett, Parramatta, N S.W., writes : “Sir, —Four years ago I caught a severe cold which settled in my head and chest, and caused an incessant cough 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, hut the debility remained and seemed to defy the skill of the medical men and the power of medicine. 1 had no appetite, andoould scarcely eat a particle of food, and was almost reduced to a skeleton, having entirely wasted away. I had taken pints of cod-liver oil, malt extracts, and other medicines without relief, when I w=s recommended to take Clements Tonic, f procured a bottle, and am thankful to say that I immediately began to improve ; I could eat better, and relish and digest what 1 did eat I gained flash every day, and my strength rapidly returned, and after six week’s treatment with Clements Tonic, I felt a new womm altogeth r. I took Ciemants Tonic six months ago, and have never bad any sickness since, and am only too glad to add my name to your list of grateful sufferers. ” Pemember you must get the genuine “Clements” Tonic, sold by chemists, grocers, and storekeepers, everywhere.
