(BY a LOCAL RBrOETttR.) Onr special writer wended his way to No. 58, Unhung, Street, .Wellington, whore Mrs. Jessie Sarah Henderson, resides. ’ “ A statement lias reached my ears to the effect that you were very ill some time ago;, I and that;you effepted a sensational recovery/' •aid-the reporter. “ I was very bad with my liver, it is true, j and tile complications Which set in almost succeeded hi putting me pnder the soil. I could nobleat a bite of.fooa without feeling I a sense of great, discomfort in my stomach, I -where jijie most-exasperating pains appeared. Great /volumes of wind went roaming about my . inside, -causing terrible agony, besides making liiy heart beat about twenty times quicker than usual.- Sensations of choking and suffocating always attended these unbearable spasms of .wind, and dull, weighty ; plains caiiie In my chest. ■ My back and loins .Nyerc tha scat of much agony, and my nights* 1 xpst ’were’ repeatedly spoiled by thesc visitu of torture. In the daytime I felt drowsy ■ and low-spirited;; Gradually ;my energy . and vitality died away, .until at last I couldnot sweep the floor without being frightfully exhausted. Faintingfits were of daily occurrence. After moving about the house for a while I was seized with a queer dizziness in my head, and I was obliged to sit down quickly to prevent myself from tumbling down. Then everything revolved in a confused heap before my eyes, and I remembered no more till I found somebody bathing my forehead with opld -water.” “You were evidently very weak 1 ” “ Yes, and I got weaker every day. The frail appetite I once had now left me, with the result that 1 got reduced to a skeleton. My face was deathly white, and my eyes had fallen deeply into their, sockets. Eruptions came out on my skin, a feature which troubled mo greatly, as my flesh used to be as clear as crystal. Some nights I slept for two or three hours right off, but tho dreams , I had were so terrible that, on‘ awaking from them, I was afraid to go to sleep again. The most shocking headaches attacked me continuously, nearly driving me mad. I have sat with my Ivead in my hands for hours, and when | lifted it up again I could not open my eyes for several minutes in consequence- of the violent agony. ' My tongue was rough, and covered with an. ill-tasting moisture. When I put my feet to the ground on rising in the morning my, limbs ached and trembled; I coutd not stand for a few seconds without being overcome by exhaustion. ' My nerves were in a state of. convulsion all day and night-; Sound of any description set them going at a great rate, and if anything fell down, or a knock came to the door, I trembled and shook like a leaf. I dare not go out in the dark, as I had a continual fear that some.thing orsomobody was after me. Although I had the services of several doctors, they could not mend my broken-down system. I tried a great many advertised medicines in vain, and. as I had sunk as low as it is possible to get without dying altogether;, I did .not think: I was going to live much longer. I would prefer death at any time to lingering on in such abject misery. The many failures to obtain relief made me disheartened and hopeless. At this critical stage a friend called in and urgid me to take Clements Tonic. All faith in medicines had deserted me, but I thought as this was the only -physic which 1 had not yet taken, I might as well try it ” •‘.And did you ? ” “If I bad not taken Clements Tonic I would have been dead long ago. Yes, I took a rigorous course of Clements Tonic, which acted on my disordered liver like magic, ridding me, in good lime,, of eii my crud body pains.' : ' , 'My;,nei ; vous system was in - igorated/ aiidT solm'slcpt'dnd ate' well, putting- qn flesh-and-getting , heavier every day”.''Tleadadhep/fcear.c palpitalion,'and all symptoms* .'br'.my* ‘coiripfainti disappeared.
