when lying in bed that I have been corn* pletely doubled up with the paralysing pa,ns in my back. Thero was one period in the history of my sufferings when I used to go off to sleep regularly every third night, but for all the good it did me I would have been better awakoThose slumbers were embraced simply through overpowering fatigue, w and while they lasted I dreamt the most horrible dreams. I did not feel the least bit rested or refreshed on awaking, but was always bathed in a cold, clammy perspiration. An extraordinary giddiness used to suddenly seize me, when my head seemed to spin round like a •.op and everything became indistinct before my eyes, which were swollen and weak. The rest of my ailments were .dded to by a total coitapse of my nervous systt m, which made me very sen:tive uud irritable whenever the least iOi.>e was made. I used to feel my :ands ai'd limbs quivering and tremi ing like a frightened child's. My temper was very excitable and repellent, the most trifling detail of imaginary neglect being magnified into a serious wrong. I was living in Queenstown hen my illness started, but soon after [ crime down to Dunedin, where I met an old friend who said: 'Hello! What is the mr.ter with you? You look as if you were dving!" " You probably felt like it, to judge •o;n your sutierings!" remarked the reporter. " Indeed I did. Many a time I bought I would never get better. I was wonderfully changed in appearance, being without the least colour in my face, besides having my cheeks sunk iTht in. My palate had a most disg'eesble flrvour, even a glass of water ..iving a bitter taste, and my tongue v.? coatr-1 white with an odorous mois!.;re. As I grew older the more acute i ere mv sufferings. My doctor said he lid rot know whether my diseases were ".fitting any worse or whether I felt the •fects more severely f 'iVo-.:g;h my sys-c-rn getting weaker wi h the advance of "ige. H» u ed to say I could not expect to b6 as well at fifty as I was at twenty; but now I feel as well as ever I did in my life." "I rm p'ad to hear it, Mr. Hardin. How was yniir health restored?" "By taking a course of Clements Tonic, even after my doctor'? treatment was given un in despair. Besides, [ had taken various makes of physics, without the slightest relief, and I had 'ong since concluded there was no hope for me. A book was handed to me one morning, and on reading some of the ages I was struck wi'h astonishment it the nti:nW of n«on ! e who testified o the virt-os of Cements Tonic. I bought if o'ur folks could be cured by Clements Tonic there was still a chance for ma. You may rest assured I soon got a couple of bottles, and my health soon bce;an to mend. I'he pains :, i mv bark diminished,, and the pains wh'eh had nearly driven me frantic subsided. I refer, of course, to the terrible agonv in my head. I ate and slept splendidly, also regaining energy, flesh •tnd s*renc;th. Mv norves were invigorated, and soon mv kidney and liver dis?a.«e,s were completely cured by Clements Tonic."
