DAMAGED MEN.
You can see any day, in the Btreets of any city, men who look damaged— men, too, of good original material, who fltarted out in life with generous aspirations. Once it was Baid that they were bright, promising lads ; once they looked happily into the faces of mothers whoße daily breath was a prayer for their purity and peace. Going to the bad ! the spell of evil companionship; the willingness to hold and use money not honestly gained ; the stealthy, seductive, plausible advance of the appetite for strong drink , the treacherous fasoinalion of the gambling table; the gradual loss of interest in business and in things which build a man up; the rapid weakening of the whole body; a depletion of the general strength and vitality ; the struggle for existence and the worry and turmoil of life breaks up the vital strength and hurries many a man into an untimely grave. First symptoms are numerous, headaches, nervousness, failure of appetite and indigestion, and various other signs. All the forerunners of some impending serious physical complication. Recourse had to a rational medicant such as Clements Tonio always removes all srgnß of disease, restores the action of every impaired organ, inoreases the appetite and aids digestion, thus ensuring a healthy organism and granting the afilioted a new lease of life. 'For several years I have been steadily declining in health, suffering from nervous proßtration, dizziness, and unnatural expectoration, flushed faoe after meals, sleepless nights and headache, as if a great weight was over my head- The action of the kidneys was defective, and I often suffered severely from the swelling of the legs, a circumstance from whish very serious consequences were apprehended. I retired reeoently from the proprietorship of the Albion Hotel, Bourke street, Melbourne, owing to my ill-health, and hoped that complete reßt would effeot a material change for the better, and that I would be able to spend my declining years with more comfort; but my health was not benefitted in'the leaßt until Clements Tonic was brought under my notice. A short course bo improved my condition that it suppressed all nervousness, subdued all my pain great'y inoreased the flow of urine; and I consider Clements Tonic "a remedy without a rival."'
