A Disordered Liver. Its Various Complications. FAITH ON A ; SUBSTANTIAL FOUNDATION. The Case of Mr7~G. DOUGLAS. (BY A LOCAL REPORTER.) Almost opposite the entrance to the Botan : cal Gardens in Tinakori-road, Wellington, there lives Mrs. Gcorgina Douglas, with whom our reporter had tire following interview : — "I wish to briny under the notice of the public the farts relating to your past troubles. Will yon picas: supply the details ? " was the question put by the writer. " With the greatest pleasure," replied Mrs. Douglas. " 1 am so well known throughout the city of Wellington that dozens of people can substantiate my statements. ' Some years ago I had a very anxious tin e through a serious and painful complaint, whi h cost me a great amount of money, besides occasioning much suffering." "Yes, Mrs. Douglas. What was your complaint ? " "My liver was out of order, and from this dernngement sprung a series of ailmenta. It seems to me that when a person's liver becomes affected with disease there ie no end to the maladies which ciop up as a result of that important organ going wrong. That was the way with me, at any rate. Fir?t, I felt myself getting languid and lowspirited, as if I had all the (roubles in th' world on my shoulders. I Look no care or interest in the work I had to do about my house, feeling everything irksome and irritatiug. A sensation of depressing drowsiness was always upon me during the livelong day ; yet, when I went to bed the rest 1 obtained was \ery trifling, whilst in many instances 1 iould not sleep at all, and had to get up feeling more tired and weary than when I retired tlie previous night. Every morning my tongue was thiekly covered with an ill-tasting fur, which had a sickening effect on iny stomach. 1 could cat but very little ; but whatever food I did partake of disagreed with me ami f died lo dig' St." " Were there auy symptoms of indigestion ? " " Yes, and very di'-cv^riea'de cues, too. licit violent p ins between inv shoulders and in my linos, as we'd as terrible agony in my stomach a!', r my nuu's. There was a feeling i f iiea-. '.i.-'z-i and oppression in my chest, as though a bar of 1- .. i was stationed theic. Vi hen Id.ev a 'ore th 1 e.xpci u n t d wiiat pee le tad a p inful stitch in my side. Drciidi'i'd -i'-'^ n-,.. \"s intensified mv sufferings, and I hp.-p.iiie so I'ccbl" and "weak that I Ooiild not walk far itithoiifc being overcome v. i ■ h faii.lm .-'. I'.-o-h day 1 got thinner and thinner, without the b-a-t tinge of colour, and my cye= ft It dull anil swollen. There was a limp, aching sensation through out every limb. A state of nervous prostration then ensued. The sound of passing :r<iflJo proved to be a bore ; bat, above a ,\\ l [ could not stand the least noise i'it happened to come suddenly. Stieh surprises cause.! my nerves to shake a_ r .iin an 1 again, and a strange trcm Hug stole our me and continued for a long time. I'alpitation of the heart was ,u>. :her trouble that I could not account for, as tli ore is not one member of our family with a weak heart. I was so lifeless and nicbuicholy that 1 hard Ij' cured whether i lived or died.'-' " Could you obtjin no relief from an} medicine ? '' " Not until I purchased several bottles oi Clements Tonic, which penetrated at once co the deeply-seated cause of my liver disease.^ 1 took this wondeifu'i medicine when 1 was so exhausted and shattered in health that I thought nothing short of a miracle could cute me, so you see that my great respect for Clements 'funic has eome substantial foundation. Several doses removed the pain aud tntulcnee from my ptomach, and the first night I tool; Clements Tonic I slept well. Next morning 1 fell much better, a slight appetite appearing, and increasing daily. I did not feel drowsy after meals either, and shortly my awful headaches ceased. My nervous system was invigorated and toned hy Clements Tonic, and the pains in my bide and shoulders faded away. My diseased liver yielded entirely to the healing and restorative inQucuces of Clements Tonic, each d^se giving me increased vital force, and ultimately rostoting me to robu-t health I think even bo ly should kuuw lhe value of Clements Tonic, so you maj' publish these facts in any way you please.''
