Acute Dyspepsia Cured In Three Weeks. The Case of Mr* FRANK RUSSBLL. {From tin. tl Nc-wtcivn Chronicle,* 1 ) (by our special reporter.} t! I can only describe the pain as a gnawing one,” explained Mr. Frank Russell, the proprietor of a brick-making yard at St. Peters, Sydney, to our reporter, who was making enquiries as to his illness. “ Very disagreeable,” ejaculated the scribe. “ lb was no laughing matter,” returned Mr; Rpssel4 “and very little rejsb 3t> allowed me. The trouble seemed to be located in the chest and the pit of the stomach, and after eatings the ipaiiiv was extreme. - ’ : i: • j i£ “ But I suppose y.pu couldn’t eatjpqsph 1 n .“Oh ! yes, I could. Sometimes I|’fl.te a great deal; but my food did me'no good, aud I was never free from constipation. Every day when-I went to work some lunch with me, which I was forced to eat at about eleven o’clock, otherwise the peculiar gnawing and sinking, pain in my stomach became ten times worse. A little food somehow seemed to give a temporary stay to this pain.” “ Can you describe ihc pain ? ” :, . “ Nob better than I have dene, except), perhaps, that I may say that when suffering I could take no interest in, or pay any attention to, anything. Sometimes I had to cease work for an hour till the severest of the pangs had worn off. And as for my mouth, the bitter taste in the morning was more than I could stand, and I frequently jumped out of bed, obtained a lump of sugar, and chewed it up ; this, I found, waa a temporary relief.” -.^l “I should have imagined a doctor might have prescribed something beneficial to you ? ” up “So anyone would have thought; but I was under a well-known doctor for months without getting relief. X went to several different chemists, too. Indeed, I tried a whole string of indigestion cures, thinking that I might come across someone amongst the many that could giue me a bit of ease.” “ Did you.get no benefit? ” , “ No, not at the time. One after another I was forced to stop the use of the pills and other medicines, after giving theirs each a decent trial. In every instance I found these much-advertised cures failed to come up to the mark, and, more than that, I believe that by filling myself up with these things I only upset my system, and made my indigestion worse. Under these circumstances 1 gave up taking physio altogether.” -.• .i. “But I’m informed" yoa~:took Clements Tonic ? ” €? ; .v[ “Ye 3, it came about in this way. I must tell you thab about the time I am now speaking of my brother was also very bad from indigestion. It’s a queer thing, but his symptoms were almost precisely similar to mine. One day he came .with some important news. He had found a medicine at last thab was rapidly curing him. He pressed me to try it. I was in bed, and fairly doubled up with agony, whilst he was speaking to me.” . “I’ve tried everything,” I said, what's this?” “ it’s a remedy that’s pulling me round fast,” he said ; “ it’s Clements Tonic.” “I sent my wife straight to the laboratory for a bottle, and at once took some. In the course of a few hours there was a considerable cessation of pain. After I finished thab bottle I sent for more. I found myself getting better every day. My mouth became clean and wholesome once more. The bitter taste was entirely gone. 1 begau to eat again without) any sense of pain or uneasiness afterwards, and soon I was quite recovered.” “ How long were you 111 ? ” “ Two years.” “ How long did it take to cure you| " “Three weeks, and I’ve never had a touch of my old complaint since. M,y brother was cured in about the same time, so you can now understand why i speak so highly of Clements Tonic.” DECLARATION BEFORE A AIAGISTRATE.
