Mr. Gladstone as a Daring Diner Out.
The London Court. Journal says: — " Mr Gladstone dines out with a regularity and daring that could not be excelled by a man of half his years. One who meets him often at these gastronomic tonrnamento says that Mr G.s participation in their enjoyments is by no meanß perfunctory. Some men past 60, still dining out, enjoy themselves under severe restrictions, daintily picking their way through the menu. Mr G.,past 80, is apparently under, no euchrestrjciions. He --Cats what comes, generally right through tbe menu, and can take hie 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 vigour. 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 the personal surroundings are efficiently interesting to excite him to talk, there would be produced a volume of interest, biographical, autobiographical, and historical. His memory is marvellous, and his power of grachically recalling an incident is the admiration of even the gentlemen behind the cbairs." Mr Gladstone is to be congratulated on possessing a perfect liver, not all men can say the same ; the slightest over indulgence in eating or drinking is sufficient with some people to upset tbe liver and cause biliouß attacks; these eventually lead to Berious disease and make tbe sufferer's life one continual misery. Timely use of Clements Tonic with an occasional dose of Dr. Fletcher's Pills will always cure the most eerioua cases, as shown by tbe proofs vouchsafed by Miss Lucy Lammond.New Plymouth, who writes: —After many years of suffering, and travelling all "over the world in search of good health, it gives me great pleasure to state that Clements Tonic has done me more good than all the doctors, and all the baths, spas and masseurs I have known. My life has been one round of misery for tbe past seven years, owing (so tbe doctors said to liver complaint. My head always ached, my limbs ached; I was always tired and languid, and I felfc more tired in a morning than when I went to bed. I had sleepless and restless nights, and could get no relief. Three months back I came to New Zealand, and in my travels frequently heard and read of Clements Tonic, and m >ther a3vised me to tiy two or three bottles. lam pleased to say that it has done wonders. I never have headache now, and I have only taken three bottles, but I feel a wonderfu: deal stronger and better, and you have my heartfelt gratitude for yonr remedy. ( i
