A Scotchman's Philosophy.

An old Scotchman is said to have risen m prayer-meeting one night and apropos of nothing delivered himself of the following remarks : " There 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 could quite comprehend why men go to war to kill each other when, if they remained quietly at home they would die a natural death in good time ; thirdly, and mostimportane of all, I do not see why the men chase around after the women, since, if they sat still, the women would run around after them." How true that death comes to all men, to Borne so permaturely, who negleot the warning symptoms of approaching disease, such as a tired aching feeling in the morning, headaches and nervousness, sour taste in the mouth, &c, all these are signs that the physical body is deranged, and that if treated lightly, serious danger is to be apprehended. W. Swanson, Esq., 70 King William Street, Fitzroy, Melbourne, Bays:— "About three years ago I was seived all of a sudden with great lassisude, dizziness and extreme nervousness to great that I was unable to rally after any great effort. My digestive organs were so impaired and my liver so congested that I was scarcely able to eat any solid food, and gradually became so weak that I could barely drag myself along. After using a number of doctor's medicines and advertised remedies to no purpose, I started on a course of Clements Tonic whioh brought me great relief, especially when using Dr. Fletoher's Pills as well. Then I gained weight and strength quickly. I took altogether 12 bottles of Clements Tonic and 4 boxes of Fletoher's Fills, and my health and vigor increased under their healthful stimulus." Miss Amelia Measb, 471 King Street, Melbourne, writes :•— " I have suffered moßt acutely from neuralgia, so much that my face often swelled great and caused me much agony. I can truly say tbat Clementß Tonic gave me prompt and very great relief." Head office and laboratories, 212 A'Beokeet Street, Melbourne.
