RESCUED FROM MISERY.
John F. E-q., Sofala, N.S.W., kindly furnishes the following testimony : • In January,-1879. I was master of a provisional school in the western district, and I married a delicate young lady, and was shortly afb'Twards appointed teacher under the Board of Education. Oar first child was born in September, 1889,aftor which my wife never seemed to regain her usual strength. In May, 18S1, she was suddenly taken very ill ; tho family doctor was sent for, and was greatly puzdod; ho, however, prescribed and the patient partly recovered. About twelve months later she was very much troubled with a painful throbbing movement in tho abdomen, especially when lying down, loss of appetite, and what fond was taken afforded no nourishment. Anothsr doctor was called iu, who rounded and prescribed, but to no purpose. We left tho neigh bourhood and went to Lithgow Valley, hoping to effect an improvement, but without result. Another doctor did all be could, and decided that the case was one of enlargement of the liver, and this proved to bo tho case, as tho side sometimes swelled to largo as to prevent dressing ; so matters progressed, and got from bad to worse. Numerous doctors continued to do but little good, aud that only temporary, but all agreed that the system was generally weak and wanted building up ; and the liver would sometimes swell aud burst off button after button off her uLter while standing in a store. For tho last two years tho trouble has been complicated with a most distressing rushing noise in the head, so violent as to render it Impossible to lie in bed at night, with violent attacks of windy colic, causing complete prostration, and excoriation of the throat. Eventually, after further suffering. I read of Clements Tonic and its wonderful effects, and sent for a bottle Tho first dose was too strong for tho 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 fbas entir: ly disappeared, and tho waist is reduced by seven inches. The eyesight io renewed and strengthened, the appetite returned, tho noise in the head diminished, and, to use my wifa’e own words, “Language utterly fails to describe the relief aud benefit she l»»s experienced by the use of only three bottles of Clements Tonic.” X consider Clements' Tonic tho most palatable and effective medicine I have ever used in either England, India, Africa, or Australia. * JOHN E. AUBREY.*
