A PERILOUS STATE.

The moment a child is born, that moment he begins to die. Therefore beware of disease making inroads into the system. Probably one of the earliest signs is slight dyspepsia which cannot- be attributed to errors in diet, want of fresh air, &c. It is a nervous kind of atonic dyspepsia, sometimes combined with acidity from liver sympathy. There is not the same relish for food, and so relief from this state is sought for in piquant relishes, wine, or tea. Another symptom ie an uneasy or tired feeling about the head, fulness it may be, or sleeplessness and stupidity, especially after eating. The brow is often hot, so is the top of the head, and the hand is pressed wearily across the eyes. Life begins to lose its brightness, then thiDgs begin to go a trifle wrong, and there are moments of peevishness and irritability. Lowness of spirits is succeeded by want of sleep. There is danger ahead, if not, indeed, close at hand, and happy is he who sees the signal in time. Recourse should immediately be had to some genuine tonic restorative, which will restore the consumed nervous tissue, and most probably Clements Tonic is the best for this purpose, it having had uniformilv good results every time wa have seen it used. In cases of debility, nervous prostration, bilious and nervous headaches, anemia and all diseases arising from poorness of blood and indigestion, Clements Tonic can bo used with confidence. It is not a quack remedy, and unlike other patent medicines its proprietors do not claim that it " will cure everything" from lock- jaw to bad spelling. But for esses of affections of the nervous and digestive systems it is specially serviceable. E. C. Guttridge, Esq. (Messrs Mauri Bros.), writes : — "486 Kent street, Sydney .Dear Sir, — It is only justice that I should write to you of the benefit I have derived from the use of Clements Tonic. Two years ago I was brought to death's door by typhoid, and from that time until recently I was quite destitute of strength and energy, my daily occupation was severe toil, and I had on several occasions to take complete rest from business on account of sheer weakness. Eventually I commenced to take Clements Tonic, and with the first bottle I commenced to regain strength, and you can readily understand that I continued its use, and now have taken six large bottles. My strength is completely restored ! I give all the credit to Clements Tonic, and having obtained so much benefit from its use I think the least I can do is to i&ihice others to U3e ifc." W. J. L. Kyle, Esq., postmaster, Manilla, N.S.W. writes, July 23rd, 1889: — "Dear Sir, — At the beginning of the present winter I suffered for several weeks from very severe attacks of neuralgia and toothache. Aftsr trying several remedies (?) wishout any relief, I heard of a friend who bad derived great benefit from Clements Tonic, and believing that my sye>tem wanted bracing up, I sent for a botfclp, and before I bad finishud it the ncur.-.lgia had quite left me. At ficsfc I was sceptical as to tbemttfitß of Clements Tonic, but am now fully convijct-d lhafc it does all you claim for it, and you can send me auotber bottle, hs a stand-by i agaiustall future attacks.
