"HIS LIFE ALMOST A BUBDBH.'

The Fort, Dawes Point, Sydney, August 12, 1889. To the Proprietor of Clements Tonic. Sir,— l have been a great sufferer from languor, loss of appetite, and depressed spirits, which made my life almost aburden. I had no inclination to eat or drink even the most palatable delicacies which make a modern table agreeable ; and to such an extent did the indisposition affect my general health that it was impossible for me to properly attend to my business.

I was recommended to try Clements Tonic, which I did with little hope of relief, but, after taking a few doses, I felt a decided change, and by the time I had finished a bottle I coold sleep the night through, and wake next morning refreshed and with an appetite for breakfast. I now eat and drink anything that comes in my way, and by the use of an occasional dose of your valuable tonic I am enabled to enjoy life thoroughly.

I remiin, yours fraternally, F. Davis.

Dear Sir, — Having been a victim to advanced liver disease for years, and tried all the medical treatment the neighbourhood affords, I am only too happy to bear witness to the wonderful results obtained by the use of Clements Tonic. I have been an inmate of Balmain Cottage Hospital, and have had the experience and attention of every doctor in Balmain, being under their treatment for months, all without the slightest benefit. I suffered with chronic constipation complicated with an anal fistula, which rendered the action of the bowels impossible without the use of instruments, and the torturing pain was unbearable. I was a martyr to headaches, always languid, tired, and excessively weak, no. inclination or ability to move about, and totally unable to do any housework for the last two years. I commenced the use of Clements Tonic, and before I was through the second bottle tha effect was really marvellous. I could eat, work, and sleep, my pains and aches ceased. I felt a different woman entirely. My bowels acted freely and without any of the intense pain I used to suffer. I have not the slightest hesitation in stating that Clements Tonic is a most wonderfully effective remedy ; it has cured me and made me strong again, when doctors and hospitals have failed. lam only too pleased to give my testimony in favour of Clements Tonic, as it .may be the means of saving other poor sufferers from the misery and torture I have endured. I recommend Clements Tonic to my friends, and in every case where it has been used it has been equally effective. I shall be only too happy to give sufferers proof of its virtues if necessary.

Yours very gratefully, Mas A. Pbeatt.

Jno. G. D. Kent, M.P.S. 140 Short street, Balmain, N.S.W. Beware of dangerous and harmful imitations. The genuine is signed F. Moore Clements. Have none other. Laboeatoeies, Sydney, N.S.W.— [Advt.]

Something like a pitched battle was fought a few weeks ago near Simon-Tornya, in Hungary, between the gendarmes and a band of 50 Teiganes, who were beggars by day and thieves and assassins by night. Every one of them was captured, and the country rejoices in the peace and security thus assured to its. The most remarkable incident connected with the brigands is that their voivode, or oaptain, is the author of a dictionary of the Tsigane language, to which the Archduke Joseph, who is much addicted to etymological and philological studies, actually contributed a preface. As the lexioograpner will most likely be imprisoned for life, he will have plenty of leisure for literary pursuits.
