RESCUED FROM MISERY.
John E, Aubrey, Esq., Sofala, N.S.W., kinkly furnishes the following testimony : 4 ln January, 1879, I waß master of a provisional school in the western district, and I married a delicate young lady, and was shortly afterwards appointed teacher nnder the Board of Education. Our first child was born in September, 1880, after which my wife never seemed to regain her usual strength. In May, 1881, she was suddenly taken very ill ; the family doctor was sent for and was greatly puzzled ; he, however, prescribed, and the patient partly recovered. About twelve months later she was troubled with a painful throbbing movement in the abdomen, especially when lying down, loss of appetite, and what food was taken afforded no nourishment; Another doctor was called in, who sounded and prescribed, but to no puipose. We left the neighbourhood and went to Lithgow Valley, hoping to effect an improvement, but without result. Another dootor did all he could, aud decided that the case was one of enlargement of the liver, and this proved to be the case, ns the Bide sometimea swelled so large as to prevent dressing ; so matters progressed, and got from bad to worse. Numerous doctors continued to do bu - little good cud that only temporary, but all agreed that the Bystem was generally weak and wanted building up, and the liver would sometimes swell and burst off button after button off her ulster while standing in a store. For the last two years the trouble has been complicated with a most distressing rushing noise in the head, so violeut as to render it impossible to lie in bed at night, with violent attacke of windy colic, causing complete prostration, aud excoriation of the throat. Eventually, after further suffering, I read of Clements’ Tonic and its wonderful effects, and sent for a bottle. The first dose was too strong for the debilitated stomach. I diluted it with water and gradually increased it as the stomach could bear it. Mrs Aubrey has now taken three bottles, and the effect is most marvellous ; the swelling has entirely disappeared, and ths waist is reduced by seven inches. The eyesight is renewed and strengthened, the appetite returned, the noise in the head diminished, and, to use my wife’s own words, ‘Language utterly fails to describe the relief and benefit she has experienced by the use of only three bottles of Clements’ Tonic. I consider Clements’ Tonic the most palatable and effective medicine I have ever used in either England, India, Afrioa, or Australia. John E. Aubrey,
