fcien was so wredtcJ and weakened that I could only walk with great difficulty; However moderately I exerted myself I felt faint and giddy afterwards. Then I was afflicted with frequent attacks of neuralgia*. I could not go to the door without being seized by excessively sevens p%ins in my face, and the terrible shafts of tortaro worked right through my bernik- I was re* dueed to such a helpless slate cf debility afr last that X woe obliged to go to the host* piiaL” *• How were yon treated there?" Splendidly. The doctors and nurse© were very kind and attentive all the time J was under their care. Whilst I was in the hospital the neuralgia was ruove regular m i s visits. Every evening, at about fiv© o'clock, it came on, and tortured the life out of me till about ten o’clock, when i$ usually subsided a little ; but I did not sleep for all that. The weary hours dragged slowly through the night, and when morning came I had nothing to look forward to, nothing to expect, but another day of agony.’' “ You at least expected to be eared in tho hospital ? ” “ Of course I did, but I was sorely disappointed. In spite of their kindness tha doctors did very little, if anything, towards effecting an improvement. One day I determined at all hazards lo leave the institution. It was clear that 1 would never get cured there, and I disliked the idea of staying any longer, as I was sinking fast, ami 1 knew that if 1 wauled to leave the hospital it was now or never ; bo I ao eoruingly left." * f What did you do then, Mr. DHscoll ?** ' 1 “ I started taking medicines which guaranteed to cure liver complaint, neuralgia, debility, and insomnia— all of which I suffered from. Each physic sra» given a, long trial, but there was not on© amongst the whole lot which was any good to me. I was terribly low-spirited at ho many ineffectual attempts to get better. My attention was at last drawn to Clement® Tonic by a person who told mo that thousands of similar sufferers to myself have been cured by its medicinal properties. I was Yery incredulous after so many previous failures, but I thought I could not be made worse, no matter what I took. £ sent for a couple of bottles of Clement® Tonic to start with.’* “ Did you notice any improvement ? ” “ After a few days I felt & lob better. My bowels were made regular by Clement# Tonic, and my tongue and mouth were cleansed. Little by little my appetite came back till I could eat a good meal. In the meantime my maddening neuralgia pains abated, and I was | permitted to' sleep soundly. Insomnia 1 became a beaten enemy. I plucked up my spirits when 1 found Clements Tonic acting so well. My body pains were eradicated, and I was now never troubled by windy spasms or palpitation of the heart. Clements Tonio built up my nervous system to a splendid pitch, besides increasing my strength every day. My vitality and energy were soon restored, and I resumed my business as well as ever.’* “ Have I your permission to publish these particulars?” “My health and happiness are due to Clements Tonic, therefore you are fre© to publish in any way these facts.’* __ STATUTORY declaration. 1, Jauxs L»RiscoL& r of 17 Jacob’* Place, Welling', ton, in the Colcny of New Zealand, do solemnly and sincerely declare that I have carefully read the annexed document, consisting of four folios and consecutively numbered from one to four, and that it contains and is a true and faithful account of my iilues* and cure by Clements Tonic, and also contains my full permission to publish in any way my statements—which I give voluntarily, without receivin'; any payment; and I make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing the same to bo true, and by virtue of the provisions of an Act of the General Assembly of New Zealand, intituled “ Xhs Justices of Peace Act, 1882.” Declared at Wellington, this 17th day of Novaanhto one thousand nine hundred, before me.
