and the frightful palpitation continued so long that I often' thought it could only end in death.- My feeble appetite at length flickered away altogether. I could not touch a morsel of food, no matter how temptingly prepared. An unnatural thirst made a cup of weak tea, or a drop of milk, the only refreshment I wanted, but even these proved uncomfortable when 1 swallowed them,” “ What a sorry plight to be in I” “Yea it was. And yet I got worse than this, which is not unlikely, considering that I was suffering so long. My disease played havoc with my nervous system. It required but little—sometimes nothing at all—to set my nerves in violent motion, and as I lay on my bed I felt myself twitching convulsively. Whenever I was in darkness I had a dread that some evil person was in close proximity, but I dare' not get up to strike a match and look. 1 tried a lot of medicines which claimed to be effective in cases like mine, but not one of them was worth the paper they were wrapped in. They did not even succeed in restoring regularity to my bowels, neither'did they free me from the dizziness and faintness which wore my daily torments. My face was deathly pale, and there was nothing left of me but skin and bone.” “Don’t you think you should have taken to your bed ? ” _ “So I did, as a matter of compulsion. I could not keep up any longer. My disease got me down properly. Besides, I had several doctors attending me, and yet they could not cure me. Heaven only knows how much of their.worthless medicines I drank, but I do know that my stomach became so frightfully weak that I oould not drink any more of their stuff. There, seemed nothing for me but to drag on a miserable existence till the last spark of life was taken out of me by my disease.” “ You look as though you never had an ailment in your life.” “ That is how I feel, I am glad to say. The, wonderful transformation was accomplished through nothing else but Clements Tonic, which a lady friend recommended me to take. It appears that she happened to hear what complaint it was that was gradually killing me, so, she kindly came to tell me how she was one time nearly dead, and that Clements Tonio brought her to life again. The feeling of despair which had been hanging over me so long gave pladfe to a gleam of hope, and by the time my firstbottle of Clements Tonic was empty, I felt that I was saved from a premature grave. Clements Tonic struck right at the root of my disease—an evidence of which fact was shown by the gratifying decrease of the pains in my chest and stomach, and the twitching of my nerves soon ceased entirely. The acute shafts of agony disappeared from my buck; my headaches also becoming tortures of ■ the past. My family and friends were astonished and delighted at the way I was pulling round. Indeed, 1 could hardly realise that I was the same woman who, a few weeks back, had lost all interest in life. 1 ate heartily and slept well, and my face soon had a healthy colour. The old feelings of listlessness and despondency were driven away. I did not neglect one dose of Clements Tonic till 1 was made perfectly sound and strong by it. Not one symptom of my complaint has returned, so I can safely say that Clements Tonic effected a permanent cure. My children have also been built up by Clements Tonio. Please publish my case in any way you think best.” BTATDTOBT DECLARATION.
