A SCOTCHMAN'S PHILOSOPHY.
Aii old Scotchman is said to have risen in prayer meeting one night and apropos of nothing delivered himself of tho following remarks " There are three things I never could quite understand. First, why boys will throw sticks at green apples, when, if they waited, the apples would ripen and drop off; secondly, I never could quito comprehend why men go to war to kill oaoh other, when, if they remained quietly at home they would die a natural death in good time; thirdly, and most important of all, I do not see why tho men chase around after the women, since, if they But still, tho women would run around after them." How true that death conies to all men, to some so prematurely, who neglect the warning symptoms of approaching disease, such as ft tired aching feeling in the morning, headaches and nervousness, sour taste jn the mouth, et<\ All these are signs that tho physical body is deranged, and that if treated lightly, serious danger is to bo apprehended. Alfred Saunders, Esq., Octagon, lhmedin, savs : —Clement's Tonic and Fletcher's Pills cured me of nervous debility after I had consulted ten medical men, and spent L2OO on their fees and medicines. The advertising quacks robbed me altogether. It is disgraceful that the law allowfl the depredations of these harpies. I can honestly recommend Clement's Tonie. It must be good. Mine was a bad case, an most of the doctors hero can prove.. Of course I had to take a long course, but that was to be expected, for I had been terribly humbugged, but I am at last restored to health and strength solely by Clement's Tonic.
