' “Get the plain, unadulterated truth! ’* These were the instructions given to our (Weekly Review) reporter when he was despatched to interview Mrs. James Williams, of Holmesdalc Street, Marrickville, Sydney. Our reporter w«s fortunate enough to find Mrs. Williams at home, and oh his explaining the motive of his visit that lady accorded him a most hearty welcome. No one, to look at Mrs. Williams now, would ever suspect that she had Suffered froffi any serious illness. She is a fine specimen of a woman, and looks in grand health. Our reporter complimented her on her appearance, “1 was very different a little while ago,” said Mrs. Williams, with a smile. “ Mid that's what I want to hear all about,” responded the newspaper man. “I suffered,” continued Mrs. Williams, “from great Qeneral Debility and Nervousness, for I was seriously ill for many months.” “ How do you account for it, Mrs. Williams?” “ I was travelling by rail once, and three I pickpockets followed me, and jostled me as I was getting into the car, and they succeeded in picking my pocket of my purse, which contained » considerable sum in gold. They were very violent, and the shock of it all ' Seriously Upset Me. A few seconds after the assault I got very taint in the train, and then commenced to Vomit violently. Prom that moment I date all my trouble. When I got home I was Entirely Prostrated, Terrible headaches came on, wftch were so violent as to nearly drive me mad. It was ten,times worse than neuralgia. Day by day I got worse. I had no longer any desire for food, and I never got any sleep, but only dropped off now and again into an .uneasy doze. Then I should get wide awake in a moment, and find myself Shaking all Over. ’ Of course ! was not able to do any of my housework.” “I suppose not, Mrs. Williams. I wonder at your being able to get about at all.” “Yes, during the earlier stages of my disease I managed to get up and sit in a chair, and sometimes I felt as though the chair was sinking through the floor with me, and at other times I should feel benumbed all over. And when I attempted to stand up I was seized with giddiness, and fell hack in my chair.” ‘•Were there any other marked symptoms ? ” “Yes, in addition to the headaches I have spoken v of I had a pain in the chest and . between the shqulders. It felt as though there was a moving ball of wind around my heart.” “ Had you obtained medical advice at this time ?”' “Yes. One doctor thought ■ It was Consumption I that had attacked me, and another medical man suggested that fatty degeneration of the heart was the cause of this pain. They prescribed for me, but their medicines had no effect upon my complaint. Then they recommended a change of air and scene—they said nothing else would do me any good—but I was unable to act on this advice.” “And how did it all end, Mrs. Williams ?” “Well, I got from bad to worse, and I was forced to to my Bed, and to get my sister-in-law to come to nurse mo, I had now got into such an irritable and nervous state that the noise of the traffic (and there is not much of ,that down this way) would throw me into fits of rrembling. I wasted away terribly, and i was t)ie colour of death. The many doctors who attended me were unable to do anything for me, and at last with me from the first, It gave my scattered nerves a calm and peaceful tone, thus allowing me to get som® natural sleep, the want of which * Was Killing Me. It strung me together, and braced me up, and 1 soon got that I could stand more noise and conversation, which only recently would have thrown me into A Shaking Fit. The remedy gave me an appetite, and I jould eat a hearty meal. ” “ I suppose you sOon became entirely resuscitated?”. “Yes, being able to sleep and eat once more, I soon got strong, and my cheeks filled out rapidly, A few bottles completely put me right. lam sure there is no remedy in the world to be spoken of in the sanv breath with Clements Tonic, and I have proof of that, for, in addition to my own cure, it Rescued ihy Little Girl, of three and a half years of age, from a most distressing malady,” . , “ I should like very much to hear about that,'” said our reporter. . • “ Well,, I will tell you all about it._ I took the child to a funeral, and I now think it was a very uUWise thing to do. My little girl was very frightened, and went off in a dead Faint at the Graveside.” •* What was the result ? ” ‘‘ For seven months she suffered from what the doctors said was , St. Vitus’ Dance. Herlimbs would shake and move in a strangr 1 way. In addition to this eczema broke on all over the back of the child’s head. It wa a very bad case. She Was a fine fat child be fore she received the shock to her nerves spoke about, but afterwards got very thin Her appetite was very queer, and she crave for strange foods.”, • “ How came you to give the chib Clem-nts Tonic, Mrs. Williams ? ” “I read, a ease in a little book very lllu that of my child’s. It much impressed nv . and I started to give the child Clemenr .Tonic. Perhaps you will Hardly believe v but it is perfectly true, two bottles Entirely Cured Her of both her ' St. Vitus dance and the eczema. • I was astonishei that the remedy should drive away thes* two Very serious ailments so v<jry speedily The child at once started to eat with i natural appetite, and got fat and well in n< tjine. Clements Tonic cured the St. Vitus Dance in , A Marvellous Manner, and the little girl’s head was perfectly clem in a very short time. So now you can scwhy I have such faith in Clements Tonic.” “And may we publish all this, Mrs. Williams?” “Every word of it, It is but my duty to make it known, that other sick ones may 1 have the benefit of Clements Tonic as my child and myself did. statutory declaration.
