are you afflicted with DYSPEPSIA, CONSTIPATION, KIDNEY TROUBLES, BACKACHE, ACHING LIMBS, or LIVER COMPLAINT ? If so, safe remedies are within your reach at a nominal cost. CLEMENTS TONIC aud FLETCHER’S PILLS have never yet failed to cur« the worst cases. General debility, nervousness, weakness, and general complaints of the digestive and nervous systems are promptly cured by these reliable remedies. They are prepared by scientific processes, and are not merely mechanical mixtures made only to “ gull the public.” The renown CLEMENTS TONIC and FLETCHER’S PILLS have won in Australasia is proof of the fact that they stand pre-eminent for their special classes of diseases. No remedies ever sold gave such entire satisfaction to their'patrous, aud evidence is forthcoming from every city, town, and village to prove their virtues. No doubt can now exist as to their value, but purchasers must be careful to get the genuine articles as many unscrupulous traders will attempt to palm off a substitute if possible, for the sake of extra profit.
