WORTH ATTENTION. The Case of Mrs. B. RODERICK. ' ' (BY A WELLINGTON REPORTER.) In an interesting conversition with oui ; reporter. Mm. Blanche Roderick, of No 29 Thomp^oa-street, Wellington gave some irnporttiiit information with regard to a nutter which is entitled to the reader's attention. She said : "It lias been my unhappy lot to suffer from a complaint tint seems to visit every home at some time or other, but I believe my case was more severe tha,« a good many, because I could not get rid of it for yean. For oue thing, I could not secuie » fair *hare of sleep at nights. That lack of rest, of course, affected me to a great degree, and I grew p*"e »ml weak, *nd my nerv es were completely gone. If 1 went out into tho street or into a room I felt that I would rather hay* somebody to accompany me, and at times I was so nervous that I w«.s almost afraid to move. Of course, I got to sleep soitietiiiies, fur nature cotiM not hoM ' out under the strain of continual wakefulness, but it was never any good to me. Ofteu I- woke up with' a start and could feel myself trembling all over, while the thoughts _that ran through my mind were really "terrible." " Were you living in this neighbourhood then ?" enquired the pressman. . '-No," replied Mis. Roderick, "I was t»»iding in Auckland <t Hie time, which is now four years a 6 o N« tongue can tell tho agony I went through with the ptius in my back. It waa quite a common thing for me to have to lie dorm simply because those pains rehdtred me i/onrerleas to stand on my feet, and the very nicniioii of headaches -makes me shudder at the thought of these I ' had myself. Any food tint 1 took and 1 can assure you i vat only very lhtle at a time — seemed to form in a lump and stay on my chest, and, I am sute, it would surprise you to know liow difficult it was to get my -breath. A dull paiu went frem th« chest right through to the thouklers, and I had aching- sensations about my loins as uell." - "You were having a vary unpleasant time of it, Mrs. Roderick." " That I was, for I could not walk a few yards down the read some tlays before a .giddy feeling would come over me, and I kept getting so weak that I could not Ir Id np very long before I was perfectly exhausted. " 'Black. -s, cks used to gat befor< - my eyes, ami I knew at ouce that another oi those giddy turns was comtag en. In fart, t appeared to be in constant dread of totnethiog or other, and the thought that 1 would never get properly cured was alway worrying me.. My eyes felt twice theii ordinary size sometimes, and such a lieavv , misty feeling in them, too, while the coatin. over my tongue set-nied to impart a bittr taste to my mouth that made all fe»d seen alike. Such suffering a* mine makes on> wonder what there is m life aft?r all ; Inn the time came when those motbid thought had vanished." "When ' was that?" interrupted th< writer "After a few bottles of Clements Tonir bad been taken, for then I felt quite a <iif ferout woman. But, befoie that, I wai : perfect wreck, and had beeu in bed over r week ;. for I was not able to get about at all You should have seen the difference th« Clements Tonic made, though, anil it \va. the only medicine out of the whole lot the I had taken which did me any goad. Shal I ever forget Die relief t» my miud when 1 discovered that Clements Tenic was real] caring me? It se»'red idcrrdible afu everything ehs having failed, but, sm CDOUgh, ii was a fact 1 became rettful n nights, my nerves were aeon strong, and started to >-at ( as thaugh nothing had bc< wrong with me I was very to»n up n about ».;ain, thanbs to Clements T»nie : bn I must admit, it took a little time to brin me reund to a perfect state of liealti Nevertheless, I was gaining every da; Headaches went, the pain* abeut my cli;--and shoulders and baik went, so did I bitter taste of a morning, and my digestif was getting splendid in the irieantime." " Did it get light in the end, tlieugh? 1 ' "Mo»t thankful I am to «y 'Yti,' fo "Clements Tenic remedial each of my »ffjk tions, and you can publish the fact: F han menyoued in any way that will bring them before the public " STATUTOHY DECLARATION.
