ONE OF COMPLETE"PROSTRATION Unafoße to Standi from Sheer Exhaustion. The Case of Mrs. B. HORNE. (by a special report eh.) In responding to instructions, a reporter visited the residence of Mrs. Bello Horne, which is situated at 11 Taranaki Street, Wellington. “ I am commissioned to enquire into the remarkable recovery from illness which it is announced you have made. ” said tho newspaper man. to “I shall he most happy,” said Mrs. Horns, “ to answer any questions it may please you to put, especially if you propose to bring my case under the notice of the public for ths benefit of other sufferers.” “ That is precisely tho idea, Mrs. Horns. What was your complaint?” “ I suffered for two years or more from a general break-up of my constitution. I suppose you would call that general debility. At all events I was so completely prostrated that I was laid up for some considerable time, and I was frequently compelled to leave off my housework even \i hen my distressing symptoms were less acute than usual. 'This state of affairs was brought about by a feeling of excessive languor, which was so pronounced as to make mo disinclined to do the trilling light duties of a household, which 1 bad previously taken so much pleasure in attending to. My head lead either a continual dull, heavy ache, or else it was afflicted with sharp, piercing pains. There was not a particle of colour .left in my face, my skin being as white, as death. My eyes were always aching, and they became so weak that I could not bear the light of day. Then, again, 1 had violent pains in the chest after eating, as well as terrible spasms of agony in my stomach, where the food lay iu a cold, hard lump. I had severe attacks of vomiting, particularly on getting up from bod iu the mornings. My back and loins were not exempt from torture either, and the pains were so unrelenting that they kept me awake at night.” “ You must have found the want of sleep very trying ? ” ’• It was killing me by inches. I tried all sorts of devices and expedients to send me to sleep, but it was very rarely obtained. Sometimes, when I was dead tired, I had a heavy doze for a couple of hours, but I always felt more depressed on awaking, and mv limbs ached umncicifully. Whilst my feeble appetite held out I did not enjoy my food on account of a most repulsive taste in my mouth. But in a little while I could not force myself to swallow even a tablespoonfnl of food. My stomach revolted at the smell of cooking.” “How did you hold out without eating?” “ I became drejdfnlly thin and weak. When I stood up I felt faint and dizzy, and I often stumbled and fell from sheer exhaustion. My system was in a frightful stal* of nervousness. I was afraid to move for fear of something dreadful happening.” Did you have the advice of a doctor?” “ I had several doctors attending me, but they did not improve my condition in the least. After two years’ physical suffering I was confronted with some domestic troubles, which helped to complete the wreck effected by tho progress of my stealthy disease. I was now low-spirited and morose, especially as there seemed no chance of ever regaining my health. The doctor's medicines were utterly powerless to do me good. The tasle of them made nlc sick and oppressed me beyond description. If I had continued taking them much longer I am sure I would have died.” “ What prompted you to discontinue the doctors' medicines?” “ The first reason is that they did me more barm than good. The second reason is that I read about a lady who had boon cured of the same disease as mine by Clements Tonic. I bought some myself, and 1 wus soon convinced that. I was saved. Clements Tonic imparted vigor and tone to niv nervous system, and also cased my pains. I could now eat freely without pain or discomfort. I became more happy and lively every day as I found myself getting stronger and stouter. Clements lonic also made me sleep well, and I continued with the same medicine until my disease wa« conquered. live years have passed since Clements Tonic cured me, and to show my gratitude you may publish my expoiienct any way you choose.” Col tkd.-i statutory declaration. „ ~f if Taranaki-strect, Wellington.
