The Finger Post POINTS The Right Road. Tha Case of Mr. C. BOUGHTON. (BY A DCNBDIH mpORTEB.) It is exceedingly difficult to got an actual acquaintance with the constitution of a oountry unless one lias live I for a time in faee-to-face view of its operation. Often the exact meaning of the words employed to describe the working of a cona itution can only be got on the spot, and ao it is with matters concerning the individual members of every home. To gain an accurate insight into affairs that once affected Mr Clement Boughton, of No. 58 Koith-strect, Dunedin, a reporter called at that genthnnin's residence and enquired : " Is it a fact that you were once ailing with indigestion, and that you are now quito cured ? " "That is so," answered Mr. Boughton, "and it is to Clements Tonic that my ([latitude is due for being in such splendid health at the present time. It was when I was living at Tuapeka West, about four or five miles from Lawrence, where I was working, that my sufferings began, and a fellow-workman put me on to taking the remedy that cured me. 1 ' "Had you been trying any other medicine before you took Clements Tonic?" ■ "I had taken several' kinds, but they toad no good ell'ect; so that for fully five months 1 had to persevere with my work under most unfavourable circumstances. My appetite got so frail that I scarcely ever enjoyed my meals, aid many a day I had not the least inclination for food. It does not take a great deal of that sort of business to reduce a man's strength, as 1 foun 1 out to my sorrow, and when sleeplessness also started bothering me my vitality ran out all the more quickly. In this way I soon became so languid that I had no desire for work at all, and with the fueling of drowsiness that settled upon me I was not in the right frame to take interest in anything. Nearly the whole of some nights passed before I could get to sleep, and when I woke up it was usually with a nasty headache, that tormented me for the rest of thejay., A bitter taste in my mouth gave my morning meal an unpleasant flavour, and after eating ever so little I was afilicted with a heavy sensation in the chest, which seemed to interfere with my breathing. Hut that was not tho worst part of my troubles, as my stomach used to become filled with wind that arose from the undigested food, and the pains that also came there were severe in the extreme. A new experience for me, and one that I did not liku cither, was to tind that my nervous system was greatly run down, for when I had done a little exercise my nerves \vi re quite shaky, and at other times they started to tremble if anything occurred that gave me a start. Often a strange mist gathered before my eyes and pave me the impressiuu that little dark specks like grains of soot, were dancing in front of me, while, to make my life still more miserable, there wire aches in my loins that sometimes nuiile walking quite inconvenient. lam not altogether sure what caused it, although I suppose it was one of my indigestion symptoms; but there was a pain right under my shoulder bladei that I could have done very well without; yet I had to bear o.ery one of my ailments right up to the time I s'arted taking Clements Tonic, and then, I am thankful to say, I soon began to feel easier. Upon my word, I never experienced such a rapid change for tho better in all my life, and my speedy recovery affords emphatic proof of the curing capabilities of Clements Tonic, which I can safely say is a genuine remedy for ailments similar to the ones I suffered from." " Can you remember the first benefits you derived ?" " To tell you the truth, I felt more vigorous and cheerful after taking a couple of botth s of Clements Tonic than I had been for a long time, and the appetite I got was surprising, liyand-byc I noticed that my food was going through a proper process of digestion, for the wind and stomach pains lift off annoying me, and the heaviness hail gone from my chest as well. For curing headaches and making me sleep, besides remmii>g all pains aiid putting my nervous system into splendid fettle, I shall always bear pleasing recollections of Clements Ti nic, and you may publish these facts for others' benilil in any form you like."
