At any rate, no matter what the cause, the only treatment of any permanent benefit is a restorative treatment; the remedy must possess tonic, invigorating, and strengthening properties. This is not the case with any of the many > purging mixtures sold as dyspepsia panaceas, | and,this is proved by their makers stating ; that the dose must be increased until the de- '■ sired effect is attained., This is due to the nos- ] trum being entirely a cathartic, and by conl tinued use the stomach, liver, and bowels become educated to the action of the medicine, and it gradually loses all effect, Clements Tonic is . quite distinct in , its action, :it assists digestion, promotes the - flow of , gastric , and pancreatic fluids, increases I. the secretion- of , bile and thus assist the bowels to throw off the waste matter; , it strengthens the nerves, forms bone, muscle, and nerve tissue, and increases the appetite. ■ Clements Tonic is a natural restorative of a debilitated system.
