The Sacrifice of Life.

Thousands of lives arc sacrificed annually because mankind are not educated in the first rudiment of hygiene and life-preserva-Uon. Simple ailments are neglected. The debility increases, and some fatal disease attacks the victim, and all life's pleasure depart, existence becomes a burden, life a trouble, and all because mankind is so apathetic and regardless of the signs nature s:nds that the vital strength is declining. All cases require irammediate attention before it is too late, and a course of Clem ■ ents Tonic invariably has the effect of immediately restoring perfeot health. Miss Eva Brown, daughter of Sergeant Brown, Albury, N.S.W., writes on June 15, 1891 :— " The following particulars of my case are f irnished on behalf of the afflicted, trusting they may be the means of restoring others to health : For eighteen months I was extremely debilitated, the doctors being of opinion that I had outgrown my strength. My disease is known in medical circles as antemia or poverty of blood. Pains invaded a l l parts of my body; I suffered from g;neral langour, extreme weakness, listlessness, dejection of spirits, indigestion, fickle appetite and disturbed sleep. My bo;ly presented a bloodless appearance : my lips were pale and the skin like wax. I was uader several doctors who prescribed for me ; but their treatment did not alleviate my sickness. I imagined that my constitution was breaking up, and as the disease progressed I became more nervous and hysterical. My sufferings were also greatly increased by a shock to the nervous system received last year, when a railway carriage in which I was sea' ed caught fire. When my case was most critical and gave serious apprehensions to my friends and myself, I started on a course of Clements Tonic, winch I took, in conjunction with Dr Fletcher's fills. The first two bottles effected a great improvement, and I could relish my food again, and my general weakness and nervousness vanished altogether. I took about twelve bottles of Clements Tonic, and my pale face is now replaced wiih the hue of hea'th, and my recovery is as complete as it was speedy." D. W. Carter, Esq., of the same city, also writes : " During the past twelve months I have suffered from a general breakdown of my system, and being of a billious disposition, I suffered acutely from indigestion and its train of distressing effects, most particularly sick headaches, t-ix bottles of Clements Tonic and a few boxes of Fletcher's pills effected a radical cure, and I shall always be glad to certify accordingly."
