>n Event Of Interest. IU PEAK &_PMISE ALIKE. The Case of Mrs. M. THOMPSON (by a local reporter.) Honing of an event which will probably •ii'-.st every member of the community >lio reads it, a reporter went to Parktivcl, Kensington, Dunedin, where Mrs. • biry Thompson lives, anil asked that lady if t was a la. t that she had lately effeoted a api.l nvovery from a serious illness. " It is qejie true," answered Mrs. Thompmi, 'mid '.lie more I think of it the more fiai.eful 1 feel to - arils Clements Tonic for lie L'onil health it has brought me. Just .Iter Chris.imas I bad an attack of scarlet "i";'> "hii.h left me in an awfully weak •I'liilition. My nerves seemed to lnive com-il.-tely broken down, fur I got excited at he least tiling, and when anything oclined to give me a start, I could feel myelf quivering all over. That was not the voiar of ii-, however, for my mind was gelerally uneasy as to what was going to lappcn ne> I, and the things I used to think .brm were never of a very' cheerful nature." " Probably your digestion was not as mod as it niiL'ht have been."

> oil are right there. It i being gooil. anil I liat is where ] real trouble used to lie. In the mornings I it»l up with a bitter taste in my mouth, and oh, how side and feeble I felt! I was thoroughly prostrated with weakness, and it would have been madness to have tried to do my housework. I had to get assistance, of course, and the mere fact of know. ing thai I was bo helpless in my own household allairs was the source of considerable worry to me. How I longed to be able to «it down and eat a decent meal again, so ilia'. I might get a littl.j stronger! but at that time 1 do not. suppose it would have mattered hoiv much or how little 1 ate, cons.lering that I could digest nothing at ftll." " How did you feel when you had taken pome refreshment?" "Very uncomfortable indeed, especially about the chest, which seemed to be overweighted so much that my breath did not come freely, and the uneasy with gases that i the food. But the headaches I had were as bad as they could be, and often and often I had attacks of giddiness, whioh made me in constant dread of them coming on again, because I was so powerless undei them. Palpitation of the heart serve J very badly, too, and my nervous fea ways bore a more unwelcome aspect when that trouble seized me, for there is no knowing what such things may lead to. At least, that is the way 1 used to turn matten over in my own mind ; so you see that all these things helped to make me more and more depressed in spirits. A whitish coating came over my tongue, and it was really extraordinary how dim my sight got at times, but, the main anxiety of my cxi»tense was the everlasting evaporation of my vitality. My sleep got very scanty, but even if I slept all night, which very seldom happen-d, I felt equally tired next day, so that nothing seemed able to console or comfort me." " Not oven the medioines you were taking," No ! not even those to any extent. Sometimes I got a triflng amount of ease from the doctor's physic, but it did not last long, and then I was as bad as ever again. There was nothing like Clements Tonic for building me up and driving away those feelings of lassitude and depression which had hung like a cloud over my life. You can imagine how greedily I took each dose of Clements ut that it was —umiuc everything else I had tried—able to cure my nervousness* and was I not deighted to find it giving me a splendid appeSite as well? A few bottles of Clements loir.c made another woman of me altogether, for it restored my digestion and set me free from headaches and all pains, and for regulating the system and restoring strength it was unquestionably the best medicine I had ever taken. Its action upon my digestive organs was so Bure that there was nothing left undone, and in future it will be my pleasure to recommend all sufferera to use Clements Tonic, and they will never rcg et doing so."
