A Wellington Cure XiOC-A-L OASES Convince Local Readers.
Tho Case of Mrs. C. GUTHRIE. (By A LOCAL REPORTER.) The persistent ignoring of individual methods is a mistake, and any advoca-te of progress will acknowledge that the most unreasonable person to de.il with is he who treats with c n tempt the tactics of his follow men. 'Hie successful courae of procedure adopted by Mrs. Caroline Guthrie, of No. 12-2 Adeldide-road, Wellington, should command the attention of every member of the uuiniuiinity. Her opening remarks were :—: — " For the greater part of tweuty.eight years I have liv«d in this city, having lauded here from London, and for many y».ir« I was in bnsintss net far from where I am living now." " You are probably acquainted with a large number of people hereabouts ? " said the reporter. " Few people are known better," replied Mrs. Guthrie, " and most of my friends kDOW what a terrible illness I had some ten years ago. I used to go off iuto a dead faint several times a day, am) got so awfully sick at heart that I did not seem to care wh»t happened. The feeling I had resembled a total loss of vital force, for I had no power to do my homework, <v»d was too melancholy for anything. The surprising thing ooncernhig my extreme languiduess was that I could not rest when I got the chance. Try how I would* I could not fall asleep. Fir-t in one position, then another, till the whole night was spent in tossing and turning ab ut. The ta-.le in my mouth sreined to turn me against food altogether, and what I did eat was -always forced down." "Do you tbink it advisable to make yourself eat if you have no inclination for food ? " " Wh<it was Itoio ? I h«d no appetite, and I could not let myself starve to death. But for all tha good the food did me, I might as well have left it alone ; besides it «.we m-> such hoFrible pain afterwards. Often I was bent double with windy spasms, aud the weighty feelings in my chest affected me in such a way that somebim a I had to fairly gasp for breath. Many * time I aim it fell down with giddiness, and my .sight used to get so bad that I could not sew, or read, or anything else. If I walked up a few steps the aches in my limbs and across my back almost crippled m<', and thr pains in my head wero so great that often I would have to stand with my hand to my forehead and wait till the dazed sensation eased off a bit, before I could trust myself to walk any further. By the blades of my ghouldars I could feel a anil pain that made itself more noticeable each time I moved my arms, and it used to put the fear of death into me when my heart began to palpitate, because such strange feelings ran through m« at the same time. At last my jangled nerves broke down, and I became a victim to the greatest horror of a woman's life — nervousness. I was afraid to go anywhere alone*, and I used to lie at night and think all sorts of terrible things were going to happen. It was misery and pain from morning till night, and I would rather die asy time than go through the like again." " You may gay that now, but you would change your mind when the time came." . "I am sure I would not; but I don't think the time is ever likely to come again, because I could cure myself with Clements Tonio like I did when I was so ill before. I had boen under the care of several doctors, but nothing came from their medicines ssCvo disappointment.' They did not agree with mo at all, and I only got weake: and more wretohed. I cann t ay the same of Clements Tonic, though, for when I had taken a few bottles — through the advice of a friend — I felt so much strengthened that I almost dared to hope that I would yet be cured. Another week or two I was sure I
