Acute Dyspepsia Cured in Three Weeks.

The Case of IWht- FRAR3K RUSSELU \ _____ {From the " Newtown Ch>-onicle.") (By OUR SPECIAIi KEPOIiTER.) 11 1 can only describe the pain as a gnawing one," explained Mr. Frank Russell, the proprietor of a brick-making yard at St. Peters, Sydney, to our reporter, whoWas making enquiries as to hid illness." "Very disagreeable," ejaculated the scribe. "It was no laughing matter," returned Mr, Russell, "aud very little rest it allowed me. The trouble seined to bo located in the chest and the- pit of the stomach, and after eating the pain was extreme. " But I suppose you couldn't cab much 1 " "Oh ! yes, 1 could. Sometimes I ate a great deal ; but my food did me no goo'l, and 1 was never free from constipation. Every day when I went to work' 1 too,: Boine lunch with me, which I was forced to eat at about eleven o'clock, otherwise ths peculiar gnawing and ''sinking pjxiii in my Btomat,h became ten times worse." A little food somehow seemed to give a temporary stay to this pain." 41 Can you describe the pain ? " "Nod belter than I have, done, except, perhaps, that I may say that when su'fici in.,' I could take no interest in, or poy a>2y attention to, anything. Sometimes I had to cease work for an hour till tho severest ot the pangs had worn off. And as for in/ mouth, the bitter taste in the morning \\v; more' than 1 could stand, and I frequently jumped out of bed, obtained a lump ot" sugar, and chewed it up ; this, I found, waj a temporary relief." "1 should have imagined a doctor miglif; have prescribed something beneficial to you ? }f '•• So anyone would have thought ; but 1 was under a well-known doctor for moniln without getting relief. I went to sever.il different chemists, too. Indeed, I tried a whole string of indigestion cures, thinking that 1 might come across someone amongst* the rnany"thafc could give me a bit of ease." " Did you get no benefit ? " " No, not at the time. One after another I was forced to stop the use of the pills and other medicines, after giving them each v* decent trial. in every instance I found these much-adverti&ed cures failed to come up to the mark, and, more than that, I believe that by filling myself up with these things i only upfeet my system, and mado my indigestion worse. Under these circumstances I gave up taking physio altogether." "But I'm informed you took Clements Tonic ? " " Yes, it came about in this way, I must tell you that abont the time I am now speaking of my brother was also very bail from indigestion. It's a %ieer thing, but his symptoms were almost precisely similar to mine. One day he came with somq important news. He had found a mediciio at last that was rapidly curing him. Ho pressed me to try it. 1 was in bed, and fairly doubled up with agony, whilst he was speaking to me." "I've tried everything," I said, " what's this?" "It's a remedy that's pulling, me round fast," he said ; "it's Clements Tonic." "I sent my wife straight) to the laboratory for a bottle, and at once took some. In the course of a few hours theie was a considerable cessation of pain. After I finished that bottle I sent for more. I found myself getting better every day. My mouth became clean aud wholesome once more. The bitter taste was entirely gone. I began to eat again without any hense of pain or uneasiness afterwards, and soon I was quite lecovered." " How long were you ill ? " '• Two years." " How long did it take to cure you? " "Three weeks, and I've never had a touch of my old complaint since. My brother was cured in about the same time, so you can now understand why X speak so highly of Clements Tonic." DECLARATION BEFORE A MAGISTRATE.
