A Remarkable Cure IN YOUR MIDST. The Case of Mrs. A. MORRIS (by a special reporter.) To prepare the ordinary citizen for tht battle o£ life first place should be given to übjeots which would, prove most serviceable during one’s career, and the “extras” could be learned at leisure. One of the principal things to know is how to take care of one’s health, or, having lost It, how it may be regained. The remarks of Mrs, Annie Morris, of No. 8 EUzabeth-street, Wellington, should be helpful in thit respect. “ Although I have lived in Wellington for some considerable time,” said-Mrs. .Morris to a special writer, “ I am not a native of the place, as I come from a suburb of Sydney, named Stanmore, and that is the place where I first fell sick and ill somt years ago.” ’ “Did you think it necessary to consult t doctor ?” asked the' reporter. “X was not well informed in matters ol sickness then,” was the reply, “so X thought the only thing to be done was ,to see a inedical man. If the same thing,occurred to me again, though, I would think differently, because X have found a safe remedy for the oomplaintl suffered with. Well, I was going to say that the medicine which my physician ordered me was of no avail. It din not help me at all. Had it kept me as I was it would not have been so bad, but it didn’t. I kept getting worse. Several times I bad to take to my bed and lie there for a few days until the paralysing weakness wore off a bit; but it was an awful struggle to keep up, even at the best of times. . When I saw that I was not making any progress I consulted another doctor, and his advice was to go under an operation. Ho maintained that my health would b» much better if I did, but I objected to it altogether, and T am glad I did now, because I saved myself all that risk and all that pain by taking the advice my mothef gave me.” “What was your mother’s recommendation ? ” enquired the interested listener. “ She said I should give Clements Tonic ■ trial, as she . was sure it would do me the world of good. It was quite a family mediclue with us, I may tell you, although I had not taken any myself up to that time, for I was fully occupied in dosing myself with what my medical attendants had given me. However, X did as my mother said, and the improvfments that followed were the talk of the neighbourhood. Constipation was one of my leading trophies, and I had an unmerciful lime both day and night with the worst kind of headache you could think of. Really, sometimes ! hardly knew where I was or'what I was doing; and a nasty taste in the mornirfgs nauseated me for the rest of the day. I felt as if I wanted no food at all, but there were some kinds that, I could not keep down even after I had swallowed it. Heartburn, pains beneath my shoulder blades and in ray chest soon followed the .taking of food, while th»> agonising tortures I had across my loinn made me think I had, Bright’s disease, k always wanted to lie down at every chance,, I felt so weary, and I was affected with giddy sensations‘a dozen times a day. If anybody coughed I’d scream with fright, so you may tell how nervous I was, and the slightest thing would throw me into n violent state of excitement. My nose used to bleed very frequently, and the loss ol blood I sustained in that way must have materially assisted in gettiag me down to such a frightfully feeble and nervous condition. ; Upon my word, I was getting quite scared, and during my long hours of restlessness my thoughts were very woeful, indeed.” “It would take some time to recover from such a condition as you were in., surely 1 " ; “Not so long as you would think,' for Clements Tonic turned to ridicule the medi, cincs I had taken before, by building me uf very rapidly after the first stages of my recovery were got over. ‘ The pains that had blasted my life were promptly subdued, end I could actually feel my vitality . increasing each week. I slept grandiv and relished my meals immensely, and before long I was entirely free from notvousueae and my digestion was perfect. lam under an obligation to Clements Tonic for all ti ls, and I wish the world to know these facts,, which you can publish in any manner yot\ think fit.” ; STATUTORY DECLARATION'.
