WHAT PEOPLE SAY.

Mrs M. L. Morgan, Clifton, Aratapu, Auckland, N.Z., under date 23rd January,- 1892, writes : —

Dear Sir, — Some two years ago, having previously enjoyed fairly good health, I was taken seriously ill, and found it very difficult to get relief. At first I treated myself, thinking that I should soon be well again ; but my illness grew upon me, and I was completely prostrated, and unable to do anything. I sought medical advice from our local doctor, and he prescribed for me. My ailment was described as black jaundice and gall-stones, and at times I suffered much pain. Our doctor's treatment did not do me much good, as the attacks were frequent and very severe. Some months passed, and I felt that I was becoming hopelessly ill. My friends were shocked at my sallow and changed appearance, and more than one has told me siuce that they never expected to see me well again. I went to Auckland for change of air and scene, and to seek further medical advice. I got it, and for a time seemed to improve, the change evidently doing me good ; but it was not tonic enough, for after a week or so I was again laid up

All the medical advice I got m Auckland seemed unavailing, and I returned home with very little to hope for. Here I suffered several attacks, and had to lay up repeatedly. My husband had a very poor opinion of patent mediqnes, but seeing Clements Tonic advertised as of such wonderful effect in serious cases, and being quite at a loss to suggest any other untried remedy, he brought me home a bottle, and we determined to try it. At the i-a-ne time we resolved to say nothing of the medicine we were using until fully satisfied of its effects. The first dose did me good, and I improved rapidly. Friends who would not have been surprised to hear of my death were really astonished at my rapid recovery. I was soon satisfied as to the vahie of Clements Tonic, and gladly recommended it to others, and so did my husband. The storekeeper spoke to him oue day, and asked him if he had been recommending Clements Tonic, for he was almost sold out, and had only one bottle left. " Give it to me," said my husband ; " I wouldn't be without it for anything." By the time I had taken one bottle, I was able to get about my work again. Friends thought the improvement only temporary, and expected to see me prostrated again, but I am thankful to say that such has not been the case. Every dose did its work, and after a fortnight I only took one dose a day, in the early morning. I have used only three bottles, and have the fourth in the' house. I do not take it regularly, but fly to it on the least symptom _of anything being wrong, and I have many times proved it to be a good preventive of returning sickness. It is now eight or nine months since I recovered, and Clements Tonio has kept me In good health all through, I oan again get on with my housa and dairy work with comfort and pleasure. I mm pleased to be able to recommend Clements Tonic, for I have fouijd it a true friend, and am convinced that it Will give health to many now suffering if they will only gire it a trial,— l am, sir, yours gratefully, M. h, Morgan.
