-'» I iu:.o » OF WEAKNESS. Spells of Three Months Misery. Phe Case of Mrs. C. F. PARKER. (By a Reporter.) Mrs. Clara Francie Parker, of No. 109 I 1 orth-street, Dunediu, on being interviewed by our reporter, related a very exceptional experience, which many readers may find personal advantage in, leading. ■% "Whilst living on the goldfields at said Mrs. Parker, "I be■■•ame a martyr to periodical attacks of neuralgia. My doctor said the cold winds oil' the lake near which we lived liero accountable for my aliment. Be ihat as it may, lam of the opinion that tho terrible state ol weakness into which i had sunk had a great deal to do with my misfortune. A dreadfully acute Main, which made me frantic sometimes, started in the side of ray face and spread up to my forehead and temples. From lliore it pursued its maddening career (o the back of my head. The agony was so great that I could not think of doing my housework, and as the attacks usually lasted three months without abatement it is easy to conceive what a frightful wreck I became. At night tho torture was doubly severe, when I could do nothing but turn and writhe in pain. I used to long for a few hours' sleep, but it never came, and when, morning arrived I felt it a relief to get up, although my trembling limbs were almost incapable of supporting me. My eyes had an> incessant burning seiißation behind them, being sometimes as rod and hot as coals of fire."

" How did you got through the dav Mrs. Parker?" '' "In a state of distraction. My mental faculties wero so affected that I hardly knew what I was doing half the time. When the pains were a little moderate I felt an inclination to sleep, when, as soon as I lay down, the agonies returned with greater violence. Oh! what a miserable time I had. My jaws were made sore and tender with a dull, dragging pain which put the thought of eating out of the question. The only food I could take was of a milky character, and even that proved too difficult of digestion for my stomach to retain. I waa thoroughly worn out and jaded. My body wasted away and shrivelled up till there was hardly anything left of me, and my faoo had a terribly haggard appearance. I became so nervous that the feast thing frightened me, and when the lights were out my mind was troubled with all sorts of foolish fancies and fears. My hands were always shaking, and I had a continual dread of some evil-disposed person standing behind mo. I was awfully down-hearted and fretful, for it appeared to me that I was destined to suffer like this for ever." .^ "Why so, Mrs. Parker? Did Vour doctor refrain from onoouragy>g you with hopes of a cure?"

" JSot at all. Ho gave ' me plenty of assurances that my allies would submit to his troatpv£nt, and that is all the comfort hj?, Ka ve me. But after taking his medicines week after week, and month after month, without any roliof, I became quite hopeless and disgusted. Then I started taking a lot of advertised remedies. If passible they hwo more worthless than the doctor's physic. They did not even contain thoso properties which were necessary to clear away the bitter taste which was in my mouth. At length I happened to read about Clements Tonic, being the experience, of a person who had suffered like myself. I decided to try it, and the results were astonishing. The tormenting pains gradually went away, and my appetite came back with ravenous force. Again, I was able to sleep, and picked up strength remarkably _mtck. I could eat any solid food put in front of me without feeling the least li-nomfort or pain. Clements Tonic "ul a wonderfully beneficial effect on iiv nerves, which wore settled and tonv\ to perfection. There was not an ailnent left unhealed when I had taken overal bottles of Clements Tonic, which <hows that it is a remedy both safe and ure. Neuralgia has never since reUirned, neither have I been troubled uith nervousness or indigestion from he time Clements Tonic cured me some yr>ars ago. I give you full, permission, ■o publish these facts in any way you flesire."
