I have good cause to remember the occasion. It was on a. Queen’s Birthday, and a dreadful day it was for playing cricket. The weather was bitterly cold, ami wo were running about and standing at intervals in tha mud. My feet got wet, and I sustained a severe chill into the bargain. Those were the days when I was a member of the Surrey United Cricket Club, which I belonged to for about sixteen years, and had the honour of acting as captain and secretary fora portion of that time. But the majority of young fellows never think of the risks they run of catching various complaints when a game of cricket is at stake, and I suppose I was like the rest of them. Those trophies you see over there represent many ft happy hour on the cricket-field; but I have spent many a painful one indoors through playing.” "W ere you attacked suddenly?” “Yes; it did not take very long to develop, and there was no chance of mistaking it for toothache, the pains being so acute that they would dart through fny head with agonising persistence. If ever waa a brief lull_in. ’ I was a victii headache ii

I was in the same state as a drowning man catching a straw; I had in vain taken so many alleged remedies, but all were unable to release mo from pain. I found that ClementsJTonic would fix me up after taking a reasonable course of it, for there was a marked decrease in my agony when only a few doses had been taken. I used to take it as though I was thirsty, knowing •that it was only a question of a little time when it would put me to rights. As the pain became less and less I could sleep much better; then I had more of a craving for my food. About the end of the first bottle the neuralgia was conquered, and the restless, nervous feeling which had enshrouded my existence for so long was supplanted by my usual calm and steady disposition. In due course I could command a sound night’s rest, and would get up and enjoy my breakfast in the morning. Headaches anil their depressing influences were quickly made strangers to me, and when the third bottle was placed by the side of its empty predecessors I was fit to play cricket in the mud again; although my prudence will deter me from running the risk of a repetition of my suffering.” “Have you "been free from neuralgia ever “I am thankful to say that I have : hut iho growth under the tooth which I have previously referred to was a cancer, and last Christmas I had it cut out. I spent the whole of that day in bed, so you may depend I did not enjoy myself. Tin operation was very trying to my strength, but a buttle of Clements Tonic soon brought hack my energy, and all that remains of the c nicer now is a feeling as though a plaster pub on the side of my face when I ito the cold. I can honestly say Tonic performed a radical neuralgia, and 1 may also state e of my sisters was almost domestic affliction with the same her round.
