A Scotchman's Philosophy.
An old Scotchman fs said to hare risen in prayer-meeting one night and apropos' of nothing delivered himself ot the lollowinj? remarks: "Thete are three things I never could quite understand. First, why boys will throw sticks at green apples when, if they waited, the apples would ripen and drop off; secondly, I never oould quite comprehend why men go to war to kill each other when, if they remained qnitely at home they would die a natural death in good time { thirdly, and most importane of all, I do not see why the men chafe around after the women, since, if they sat still, the women would run aronnd after them." How trne that death comes to all men, to some so permaturely, who neglect the warning symptoms of ap. proaohing disease, such as a tired aching feeling iv the morning, headaches and nervousness, sonr taste in the month, Ac., all these are sign* that the physical body is deranged, and that if treated lightly, serioDß danger is to be apprehended. W. Swanson, Esq., 70 King William Street, Fitzroy, Melbourne, iays:—" About three years ago I was Beivedall of a'Budden- with great lassitude, dizziness and extreme nervousness bo great that I was unable to rally after any great effort. My digestive organß were so impaired. and my liver bo congested that I was scarcely able to eat any solid food, and gradually became so weak that I could barely drag myself along. After naing a b amber of dootor's medicines and advertised remedies to so purpose, I started on a oottiße of. Clements Tbmo which brought me great relief, especially when using Dr. Pletober'B Pills as well. Then I gained weight and strength quickly. I took altogether 12 bottles of Olementß Tonic and 4 boxes of Fletcher's Fills, and my health and vigor increased under their healthf ol* stimulus." Miss Amelia Meash, 471 King Street, Melbourne, writes : — " I have Buffered most acutely from neuralgia, so much that my face often swelled great and caused me much agony. I can truly. Bay that Clements Tonic gave me. prompt aud very great relief." Head office and laboratories, 212 A'Beckeet Street, Melbourne.
