ANOTHER Bunedin Proof. A DECISIVE NARRATIVE. The Case or Mr. W. SMITH; (BY A LOCAL REPORTER.) Here is a tip that may be found useful t& many, if they cai'e to consult their own safety and comfort. It is given by Mr. William Smith, of Main Road, North East Valley, Dunedin, who taid to our reporter :—: — "To anybody Avhose health is broken down I cannot do anything better than recommend them to take some Clementa Tonic, as I found it to be a first-rate medicine when I was suffering from debility two years ago." "How long had you been ailing?" ia« quired the press representative. "Ifully twelve months," was the reply, " and a bad time I had of it, too. It was after a very severe attack of influenza that I was left in such a poor state of health thafc I did not have enough, energy to do anythingscarcely. The most distressing feelinga of languidness were in attendance every day. the result of which was that I had no deairo for work, and it was even too much troubla to do anything by way of recreation. My spirits also became very depreise d, but such; was not to be wondered at considering thafe my vitality was so very low. This state oS weakness would probably not have continued? so long if my appetite had only been better, and if the food I took had nourished ma more than it did ; but those seemed to ba my two greatest difficulties." " Your digestion was evidently in a bad way?" "-Of that there was no doubt whatever, as I suffered terribly with flatulence aftenf taking food", and in the cheafc there was «£. feeling of oppression as if the food ha<Ji formed into a lump. Under my shoulder blades there existed a. pain thai) was verji tantalising, and besides being intensely dull! and drowsy I had headaches thafc madei things all the more unpleasant for me.. A. peculiar feature of my sickness was that* £ u^ed to get restless when I ought to hava> been, sleeping,, a.? i£ my weariness during 1 the. day had turned to an. unnatural stata of activity at- njghta for the purpose of depriving me of the: Bleep that was so muck requited ; and, of course, snch a stata of things, only conduced to intensify the exhausted condition that I was in. Bearing; fchfe "brunt af these adversities had the effect, of considerably weakening my nervous.' system, and! in regard to this mattes I can. speak well of Clements Tonic, as it 3 nervetoning influences could not have been? improved upon. The disordered condition off my internal organs was, demonstrated by the fitter taste I used to have in thai mornings, and I was well-pleaaed with' Qlements Tonic when, thaft unpleasantness vras done away with, for then I could enjoy , ray food better, %s, in. addition to. its cleansing qualities, it gar* me a splendid appetite,, a.nd when I started eating well it was notfr long before my vigoir was on the inereaae.'*' "Had you. not taken, any otiner medicine before using Clements Tonic ? " "I had taken several kinds of physics^, but nob one of them, was near as good aa, Clements Tonic,, because it benefited my system right throughout?. Indigestion aeemae to be such a common complaiati that X thinkc it should be known to all who suffer from ifc that there is a medicine within their reu.cn; which can gain the upgeir hand oveir theii? 1 ! ailment^, and it ia t'oir this reason solely that; I speak of the advantages I gained by I O3ing Olamenta Tonic, which, stopped the fpod! from fermenting, and thus reiiaved ma off ! the gains arising from flatulence. With * | further us* of that valuable remedy my digestive organs were thoroughly repaired, and it was really remarkable ivhab ait invigorating effect; Clements Tonic had upon me. The old feelibgs of drowsiness and. depression were put aside, and for removingLsealdaeh.es and the other inconveniences I had endured for twelve months, Clementa Tonic added me tc its lists of advocates, for I sha!£ nev^r neglect to advig& thosa in need a£ medicinal help to adopt the same course fchaS lifted me oat of the nnhappy state I was in.** "Perhaud it would be just as well to» make your recommendation in s public way V " I think that would be tne beat thing to do, for then my experience could be brougnfe under the notice of so many people that ~E am not acquainted with, therefore yon may; publish all I've said in any way yon deem fit." STATUTORY DECLARATION. I, William Smith, of Main Road, 2forth Eait Vailey Dunedin, in the Colony of New Zealand, do solemnly and sincerely declare "that I have carefully read th« annexed document, consisting of two folios, apoT consecutively numbered from one to two, andthaft ifc contains and is a true and faithful account of my : illness and cure by Cleinent3 Tonic, and al-so contains my full permission to publish in any way nay statements — which I give voluntarily, without receiving any payment ; and I maka this solemni I declaration conscientiously believing the same to ba true, and by virtue of the provisions of an Act of th» General Assembly of New Zealand, intituled "Thi : Justices of Peace Act, 1882." 1 Declared *t North East Valley, Dunedin, this twelfib day of March, one thousand nine hundred and thraa. befor* me, GEORGE CALDER, J.P-

"Ah 1 Your second?" said Holmes, smiling. "Heavens, how did you guess it?" "Verjr simple. If it were your, first you'd wake it up to show it to me; 1 ' if you had more than two you'd be at ths plub about this time." —Mr Toole was once invited by Mi*.
