Johnston;, of Geelong, Victoria, who writes on the» 19th September, 1896 : — Those who have kever had a day's illness oannot know the feeling of gratitude that permeates the system ipf one who, after days, weeks and years of siokness, has been restored to strength and vigor through the discovery of one who has used his brains for the purpose of restoring strength to the sick. I was one of these. For a considerable time I was troubled .with extreme lassitude. I thought it wait nothing but laziness, and tried to work it 6ff, but it was of no avail. I became extremely nervous, and was frequently afraid of falling, my dizziness was so great. I detested the sight of food, and could hardly digest anything, and was ultimately compelled to lie up, all the while taking medicine, and carrying out the doctor's orders. I lost weight rapidly, and found myself so weak and ill that living seemed a curse ; may I purse, too, lost weight, and I did not feel inclined to continue paying for medicine which was doing me no good. I was pressed by a relative to try Clements Tonic. I bought a large bottle, and it performed a miracle with me. My appetite returned, my flesh assumed a healthy colyr, and I felt not only inclined, but eager fqr work, and all my energy seemed entirely restored and I only attribute my rapid and. speedy cure to Clements Tonic. M. JOHNSTON CONSTIPATION ,' Or costiveness, is one of the most frequen results of liver complaint, and requires prompt and careful attention, for jtf the freoal matter beoomes impacted iln the bowels dangerous effects are to be appre honded. The justly celebrated Dr Abernethy said that inattention to the action of the stomach and bowels was the cause of ninety per oent. of our physical ailments, and modern soience proves this assertion correct. Care, however, requires to be observed in the choice of remedies, for there are numerous drastio and vhSlent cathartics sold under various fancy names but Dr Fletoher's Pills are used with the best advantage in such oases. Mr A. M. Beauohamp, Rata, Rangitikei, N. Z., says : — *'I wish to inform you of, the good Fletoher's Pills are , doing herd. Everybody uses them, and speaks wel} of themand so do I, for they are the 'best I ever used in my life." They can he obtained from all medicine vendors, or direof from F. M. Clements, Newfowo, Sydney, for thirteen penny stamp?
