Interviewed by a special press reprcgentalive, Mr. James Lord, of No. 15 A ansLeld-street, Newtown, Wellington, said :"• — “ it gives me the utmost pleasure to rec- ive. a journalist wishing to bring before the public fciie complete facts of an illness I haJ some eight yours ago, as an account of my recovery cannot fail to lead people on to the right traca when they Jiiui their health has gone astray.” ‘ I appreciate your kindly welcome,” responded the writer. “Are you long resident in these parts?” “ I have lived here a good while, and also know Queensl nd, Victoria, and New South Wales well. On the other side T spe it most of my young days on a station, and many a long droving trip I have taken, when the heat was so great that it would almost stifle one. A pretty monotonous life when the novelty has once worn oil, and you do not get the best of food either.” “I suppose it is impossible to get any vegetables on those long journeys ? ” “My word, they would be a luxury!” No ; we seldom saw vegetables, and I think that fact bad a lot to do with the way my digestion went wrong. I know that a few years of that kind of life made me an inveterate sufferer from indigestion, and it was not until eight years ago that I found out what was really good for that complaint—an absolute cure, in fact.” “ Wnat was that, il. Lord?” “ Why, Clements Tonic. There is nothing in the worli like it; and since I made its acquaintance long ago I have very seldom b. .u without a bottle in the house, as I find it a grand thing for keeping the whole of the family in e-e. Hen condition. I ought i.o consider myself an authority on medicine iii one way, for when I was ailing so much I had physic from a doctor in Brisbane, and also from a medical gentleman in Lubbo, New South Wales.” “What did the doctors say you were suffering from ? ” ‘ They all put it down to the sluggish state of my liver, and, of course,. they treated me in accordance with that view of my case I might as well have been treated for a totally different complaint for all the good they did me, and when at last I got tired of patronising the doctors any longer I started to treat mssef with some of the patent mediciues that I saw advertised from ti ne to time. It would be hard to say what I did not resort to, yet no las ing relief was obtainable, and so the only logi al conclusion that I eould come to was that the complaint had got too firm a hold upon me to be removed. In this belief, I am deligh ed to say, I was in error, as I soon found out when I bad been taking Clements Tonic a week or two, and as I know, from my own experience, that that medicine stands head and shoul lers above all others, I think I have a right, to let every suffer r in the community become aware of the fact.” “ How did you become acquainted with that medicine in the first place ? ” “ I was advised by a medical man to try it. I told him what I had one through, what I had taken for my afflie ions, and everything else about it ; and without a moment's reflection he told me to get some Clements Tonic, and that would be sure to do me good. I was surprised to get that kind of advice from such a source ; but it was real y the best he could have given me, as you would have said yourself had you seen me a few weeks lai er. And I need hardly teli you that I was deeply grateful to be out of the misery I had been in so long. Ever since my liver h d commenced to bother me I was assailed by violent headaches, that seemed to give a swollen to the eyes and affect my sight, and d but that I was subjected as if the foul could not go any fut tber. Wind also formed in the stomach, ami gave me tna most excruciating pains of ail, and I cannot} suggest any pains mere tantalising than those which lingered under my shoulderblades. And it was remarkable lmw my loins used L<- ache, as if i had been walking miles and miles and had never taken a rest ; but I can assure you that I never did go any long distances, as those aches viisressed me quit*: enough, sometimes even when X only walked a lew yards. One of my principal enemies at that time was restlessness. “ That would go against you a lot,” interrupted llie reporter. “ It helped to break me up altogether,’ 8 replied Mr. Lord. * In fact, sometimes X got so rveak and ill that i had to tat e a spell away from work. loom time to tima it used to happen that for about a month at» a stretch 1 would have an unendurable period for the want of sleep, and at those times it was absolutely impossible for me to exert myself with business matters in any shape or lorm. Those sleepless nights and the am: unt of brain worry I had, combined with the everlasting tortures that I was enduring through indigestion, made a sorrv wreca of my nervous system. The least excitement made me tremble all over, and my spirits sank into the deepest depths of melancholia.. I could find no brightness in life whatever, and ween a man gets to such a despondent pitch as th<t liis con ition is to he p tied. My appetite was as poor as it could possibly be ; yet the strange parti of that was that the lilt c I ate gave mo such a mountain of anguish to endure. Why, my stoma- li got so weak that often the food came up again soon after 1 hud swallowed it, and so I lingered on until Clements lonic came to the front and showed its superiority over all other medicines.” “ You must have been pleasantly surprised wit'a the results.” “ I assure you 1 was highly delighted with the effects of Clements Tonic upon me, for it was not long efore the feelings of hopelessness had vanished, in view of the improvements that had taken place. It* nerve-invigorating qualities v. ere quickly displayed, and I was quite astounded with its effects upon my digestion, which vv.ia thoroughly reorganised by Clements Tonic. The appetite I gained was very encouraging, and only myself knows how greatly I appreciated lining from the table and hating no chest pains n<>r flatulence to annoy me. 1 was also glad of being a ie to rest well ati nights, for then I could rise in the morning* feeling fresh for work, and as inwantiy happy as though nothing had been wrong with me. Alter ridding me of all my pains, including those distracting head)* aches, an ' fortifying my system with a remark** bit- supply of nerve force in place <># the quiveri' gs that existed there, Clement* Tonic c mple ed the cure hy building . p my strength in such a way that, as I said before, I now regard it as the be t medicine in the land, and you arc welcome to publish my views in any way you think fit.” STATUTORY DECLARATION.
