Mr Gladstone as a Daring Diner Out.

The London * Court Journal' says:—" Mr Gladstone dines ont with a regularity and daring that could not he exoelled by a man of half his years. One who meets him often at these gastronomic tournaments says that Mr G.'s participation in their enjoyments is by no means perfunotory. Some men past sixty, etill dining out, enjoy themselves under severe restrictions, daintily picking their way through the menu. Mr G., past eighty, is apparently under no such restrictions. He eats what comes, generally right) through the menu, and can take his glass of port after his libation of champagne—a test from which many an ardent diner out would shrink. His mental activity is on a par with his physical vigor. His conversation is a never-flagging flood, brimful of interest. If it were only possible to reproduce a verbatim report of his conversation at a dinner party, where thepersonal surroundings are sufficiently interesting to excite him to talk, there would beproduced a volume of interest, biographical, autobiographical, and historical. Hi* memory is marvellous, and his power of graphically recalling an incident is the admiration of even the gentlemen behind the chairs." Mr Gladstone is to be congratulated on- possessing a perfect liver—not all men can say the same; the slightest overindulgence in eating or drinking is sufficient with some people to upset the liver r a i cause bilious attacks. These eventually u5 to serious disease and make the v'g eret >i life one continual misery.

I had most acute pains in my chest, and my liver was so enlarged that I could not lie on my right side, there were also sharp pains around the kidneys, combined with severe headache?, simply unbearable, cansfcg great physical weakness. I was treated by doctors, but only experienced temporary relief from my complicated disorders. When my condition was most critical I was persuaded to try Clements' Towe which I took with Dr Fletcher's pills, and after the use of the first bottle of Clements' Tonic my pains vanished like magic. I nsed in all three bottles of Clements' Tonio, and two boxes of Fletcher's pills, and the swelling of my liver was removed. I have gained greatly in weight, and my chest and Inngs are stronger than ever. lam well knows as an old resident, and my recovery has excited muoh interest here.—[Advt.]
