The True Protection.

Nowadays the fiscal policy is always a prominent plank in the platform of every politician, yet is it a wise polioy on the part of the consumers to place a tax on the articles which they do not make but only consume ? Sappoße, for instance, the Customs duty is 3$ per cent, on imported goods, tjhe wages of the laborer in all grades of employment in a country thuß prateoted should be 33 per cent, higher than in a Freetr&de country, to make things equal; but ia it em the case? True Protection, liko aharrty, begins at home, and in these days, when the air is laden with microbes, bacteria, and other germs of disease, it behoves us all to be on guard against the common enemy. Old age kills but few ; disease slays its thousands and millions, and all because mankind is so apathetic and careless about first signs of approaching sickness. Neuralgia is one of the most positive signs of the approach of some physical affliction, and requires immediate attention, before it has progressed beyond human aid and fatsl disease has got hold of some vital organ. S. C. Reilly, Esq,, writes, under date June 1, 1891, from Garner avenue, Marrickville, N.S.W.:—" I can with confidence bear testimony to the wonderful cwative powers of Clements' Tonic. Forjsears I hire been periodically attacked urn asjgreajt sufferer from neuralgia and% and anyone who has ever been 's ifticted OTth suah nervous misery can fossa sn. idfea of what I have suffered. I had also chronic indigeßtion, general languid feelings, and an utter dislike to exert myself. The neuralgia wag so severe that I have paced the hall all night and the agony was so exornciating that I was almost out of my mind, I tried all so-called remedies, also galvanic treatment, which did no. good. At last a friend recommended Clements' Tonic, and I was so miserable and disheartened that I purchased a small bottle, and after the second dose felt great relief. I oontinued its use, and am thankful to say that after twenty-four hours the pain had disappeared, and I was free from the nervous terror. I oontinued Clements' Tonic, and have taken four bottles ; all my languor is gone, I am free from indigestion, I can do a day's work with any man, and eat like a horse; and have great pleasure in recommending Clements' Tonic to anyone suffering from nervous complaints. - Yours truly, S. C. Beilly."— [Apvt.l
