Its Various; Complications. FAITi Oil A THe Case of Mrs. G.” DOUGLAS. (by a local reporter.) Almost opposite the entrance to the Botanical Gardena iu Tinakori-road, Wellington, there lives Mrs. Georgina Douglas, with whom our reporter had tho following interview:— • “ I wish to bring under the notice of the public the facta relating to your past troubles. Will you please supply tho details ? ” was tho question put by tho writer. “ With the greatest pleasure,” replied Mrs. Douglas. “ I am so well known throughout the city of Wellington that dozens of people can substantiate my statements. a Some years ago I had a very anxious time through a serious and painful complaint, which cost me a great amount of money, besides occasioning much suffering.” “■ires, Mrs. Douglas. What was your, complaint ? ” “My liver was out of order, and from this derangement spipng a series of ailments. It seems to me tn£t when a person’s liver becomes affected with disease there is no end to the maladies which crop up as a result of that important organ going wrong. That was the way with me, at any rate. First, I felt myself getting languid and lowspirited, as if I had all the troubles in the world on my shoulders. I took no care or interest in the work I had to do about _my house, feeling everything irksome and irritating. A sensation of depressing drowsiness was always upon me during tho livelong day ; yet, when I went to bed the rest X obtained was very trifling, whilst in many instances I could not sleep at all, and had to get’up feeling more tired and weary than when I retired the previous night. Every morning my tongue was thickly covered with an ill-lasting fur, which had a sickening effect on my stomach, I could eat but very, little ; but whatever food I did partake of disagreed with me and failed to digest.” “Were.there any symptoms of indigestion?” o', ■ » “ Yes, and very disagreeable ones, too. I felt violent pains between my shoulders and in my loins, as well as terrible agony in my stomach after my meals. There was , a feeling of heaviness and oppression in my chest, as though a bar of lead was stationed there. When I drew a breath I experienced what people call a painful stitch in ray side. Dreadful sick headaches intensified my sufferings, and I became so feeble and weak that I could not walk far without being overcome with faintness. Each day I got thinner and thinner, without the least tingo of colour, and my eyes felt dalland swollen. There was a limp, aching sensation throughout every limb. A state of nervous prostration then ensued. Tho sound of passing traffic proved to be a bore ; but, above all, X could not stand the least noise if it happened to come suddenly. Such surprises caused my nerves to shake again.and again, and a strange trembling stole over me and continued for a long time. Palpitation of tho heart was another trouble that I could not account for, as there is not one member of our family with a weak heart. I was so lifeless and melancholy that I hardly cared whether I lived hr died.” “Could you. obtain no relief from any medicine ? ” ** “ Not until I purchased several bottles of Clements Tonic, which penetrated at once to the deeply-seated cause of my liver disease. I took this wonderful medicine when I was so exhausted ■ and shattered in health that I thought nothing short of a miracle could cure me, so you see that my great respect for Clements Tonic has some substantial foundation. Several doses removed the pain and flatulence from my stomach, and the first night I took Clements Tonic I slept well. Next morning I felt much better, a slight appetite appearing, and increasing daily. I did not feel drowsy after meals either, and shortly my awful headaches ceased. My nervous system was invigorated and toned by Clements Tonic, and tho pains iu my side and shoulders faded away. My diseased liver yielded entirely to the healing and restorative influencedof Clements Tonic, each dose giving me increased vital force, and ultimately restoring me to robust health. I think everybody should know the value of Cle : ments Tonic, so -you publish these facts in any way you please.” STATipOXIX DECLARATION.
