A Narrative OF Former Days The Gate of Mrs. A. MOORE. (BY a local kbpobtkb.) Enthusiastic as we always are over our national achievements when anything directs our attention particularly towards them, we are only too liable to forget all about them when the excitement of the moment has cooled. This also applies in private matters, but it cannot be said of Mrs. Annie Moore, of Yelverton Terrace, Auckland, whoso remarks to our reporter were : “ It is a long time ago now—some twelve years, I think—since I got over the greatest trouble that I ever had in all my life ; but in spite of the many years that have gone by I am ever mindful of the great blessings that accrued through using Clements Tonic, and for the sake of the afflicted I ought to make a public statement. It was a case of being thoroughly run down with me, having no strength to do my work, and so heavily depressed in spirits that I did not care about going anywhere or doing anything. Many a day I got up feeling too exhausted to stand, and with such a vile taste that I turned sick at the sight of food.” “ Do you think that your liver was out of order 1 ” questioned the special. “I am sure of it, because I went to a doctor and ho said so. I do not know what the medicine was that he gave me, but I do know this—that it had no good effect upon me ; and when I had been under his treatment a while I could see it was no use, so I gave up going to him. After that I took to buying medicine from chemists, which also turned out to be profitless ; for I took almost everything obtainable without getting any better, unless it was a little ease that I sometimes got for a day or so,” “Never any longer than that ? ” “Never; and at last I was quite driven to despair. My appetite had dropped off altogether, and I had become so feeble that I felt as if I wanted to lie down continually ; but the unfortunate part of it was that when I did go to bed I could not sleep. There was not the slightest particle of color in my face, and I had got so emaciated as well that I really thought I was going into consumption. Oh ! the horror of it was dreadful, and you can imagine the days of anxiety and suffering I put in witli hopelessness staring me in the face because all the medicines were powerless to benefit me. My poor head was fairly racked with aches, and in course of time my vitality was so completely exhausted that sinking feelings came over me, and before I could help myself I fainted and dropped down anywhere.” “ How fortunate not to have mat with a serious accident ?” “Wasn’tl2 But heaven knows my afflictions were great enough as they were, and don’t you think I should be grateful to Clements Tonic; for releasing me from such a critical condition ? Indeed, yes; and many a one I have told who put to good use this experience of mine. Would you believe that I could not take food of any kind unless it gave mo a feeling in the chest as if a weight was placed there, and with flatulence and shoulder pains I suffered terribly, and was so nervous that I was startled several times a day from no cause at all; yet when I began taking Clements Tonic I gained'so much relief that I began to think my ailments were really curable after all, though up till then my opinions were quite the reverse.. And this remarkable improvement was .'all traceable to the advice given by a gentleman who kept a grocer’s store in Arch Hill. He said Clements Tonic was what I wanted, and truer words were never spoken, as not very long after starting with it I was quite free from headaches and the housework tvas nothing to me. The beat sleep I had had for months came through using Clements Tonic, and what a peaceful, contented ai id cheerful feeling I had when I woke np 1 ]Ct was grand ; and my appetite was restored and so was my digestion. In a few weeki I was as light-hearted ami as healthy as any woman in the city—no fainting fits or m arvousness to worry me—and up to the presei it day I have been equally sound and strong.’ ’ 4,4 A recorf 1 like this should bo useful.” For thn sickly to refer to-yes; and you may pn blish it in any atylo you like.’ STATUTORY DECLARATION.
