A Lesson for Those who Can h-pfit by it. The Case of IVIr. J. E. FAHEY. (BY A BUXKDIM ItSfORTKR,) When (it certain sofawis wc reviews of the your—mere dull catalogues of what sro called public eronco dead and gone even for eiwh life as there over wbb iq them—wo oontrast such little bmlgcts with that real review of the year which is unknowable, save tlmt every individual may revieyif hii own infinitesimal part of it, and if he considers it expedient t9 mak? known liis affairs to the world a reporter's services are called into requisition, as was doue in connection with Air, John Edward Fahey, of No. 36 Grange-street, Dunediu, who said " About eighteen months ago my health wan in a shockingly bad Btato, and had been for a good while before that. I was suffering from an obatbiate derangement of the internal organs, aud matters had arrived at such an unwelcome stage that I could net get my food to digest. The missry I experienced through thai trouble was greater tlian I oan find words to describe. The work I was doing was not by any means light, and by the time I get home at night I was fairly done, the feelings of exhaustion being so Intense that I could have almost dropped with fatigue." "I expect you would be able to sleep very soundly when in that condition ?" sug. gested the acribe,
" Well, that wai one thing I rally could do, for exhausted suture could not hold out against any deaire I might havo lmd to keep awoko, Yes, I could sleep enough, but the difficulty about sleeping was lhat it did sob refresh mo In any way, for when I awoke in the morningn I felt dond tired, and for the first part of the day I could fed sensations like aches running through my limb*, Oneof the worat features of my iiokneii ni the despondency whloh seizod me. I looked upon hfo as an insupportable burden, as if tnerc was nothing but desolation nil round, There wai not one pleasant thought in my mind to build myBelf up with, and after meals I felt particularly drowsy and uncomfortable," "What forma of discomfort did you have, Mr. Fahey ?" "I had ft terribly heavy foriiiu in my chest, and pains used to attack me right between the shoulders. Often I had giddy turns which nude me quilo useless for awhile, and my sight seemed togetbesmeared in some way or other. Blaok spscks appeared at times before my nyes, which felt heavy and somewhat cnlorgod in the mornings, and I had an awfully bitter taste besides, and a coatiug over mv tongue. When I walked or stooped I found that the aches acrois my loino got more aoveie than wlmt tlioy usually wore, and the least exertion or excitement caused my nerves to shake terribly, for my nervous system was very much weakened. My appetito was getting poorer and poorer every day, but whether I ate much or little it made no difference to the sense of fulness in the itomach rcliich followed iny meals, and it was quite evident that every particle of food fermented. Some days I ceuld hardly hold mv head up for the excruciating aches that Afflicted me, and I was just about as weak and miserable as a man could be when I hit upon a medicine that changed my life entirely." " What medicine was that 1" "It was Clements Tonic, and a grand me'lioine it was, too. It was all a matter of luck, and came about ill this way. One evening I wan reading a Clements Tonic testimonial to my wife, and wiicn I got to the end of it I said : 'What do you say if I givo it a trial!' An affirmative amwor was given, so I bought some Clement? Tonic, and by sho time I had finished with that remedy I wm twice the man I had boon. My health was mado so perfect by Clements Tonic that 1 think no house should be without it. It began by soothing my nerves, and after several days' treatment the weary sensations were not present when I got up in the mornings, neither was the vile taste, nor ihe coating on my tongue. Really, I was spellbound with amazement to find that "my appetite had come back already, and by-amjl-bye the flatulence was done with ; so wore the depressing headaches, giddiness, and the pains about my chest and shoulders. It seemed like a happy dream, but it woe better than that. -It was a positive fact that Clements Tonic hadcured me, and now you can publish these words of truth in any form you please."'-
