Generous Tj_ • *r~ ©SLimon v IN PRAISE OF

The Case of Kirs. E. SV2ACARTHUR*

\\S\- A LOCAL USL'OKTER.)

The generous stirriug of neighbourly kindness that prompted Mis. Ellen: Maearthur to give the following information to our reporter has a benoficent radiation ■ hat will not be lost upon the residents o) VVoodhaugh, Dunedin, where Mrs. Mac< rfchur's house is situated on the main ;oad he lady mentioned began by saying :—: — " In tiie spring of last year I was in z. very different state of health to what I am at the present time, for then I was experiencing much unhsppiness owing to the sluggish condition of my liver. For a long time pre\ iou<-ly I had been feeling unwell. but for a while I did not take much heed of my little ailments, thinking that they would perhaps go away as they had come — on rheir own account. What a sorry mistake that was to be sure ! Do you know that ab last I got so ill that for six weeks I was laid up in bed, and scarcely able to move from one side to the other. Oh !it was a terribly trying time, ;«.n<! T nity anybody whe ■» lifters as 1 -did then

" Was it entirely with the liver that you were suffering ?" enquired the pressman. - - " It was, although at the time I did not know what was the cause of my distress, &i I thought I had lumbago and was treating myself for that complaint. The pains in the lower v< r ' of my back were so dreadfal

hat 1 ' use hot romentations and poultices on the part atfected ; but even those remedies only gave me temporary relief. ©When I got out of bed it was only with a painfully slow and uncertain gaift that I went about, and, beiny so frigh fully weak, I soon became exhausted and had to teturii lo bed again, where I never slept? without having unple^san dreams, ami more often than not I did uot sleep uutu morning arrived. Awful pains in the rightside and aches in all my limbs continually harassed me, and sometimes I had to endure headaches as well. I believe that the nasty bitter taste which came to my mouth every morning had something to do with spoiling my appetite, which got very poor, and ever\ thing seemed to have the same flavor. Quite regularly 1 became troubled with flatulence after taking my food, and the pains liker spasms that came to my stomach vrec* almost unbearable. It looked as though J jvas going to be subjected to all the-ailments that are possible to !»e experienced, aa, in addition to what I have already told you, I was frequently affected by turns of dizziness: ■and my nerves were getting weaker every day." " And all that time you thought you hilumbago." " Y-es : and it was not till 1 read . Clements Tonic book that I really knew what was wrong* with me, for in it there were several cases just like mine, whero people spoke of being cured of disordered livers by Clements Tonic, and I though^ ib wise to try the same medicine. The very first f-ottle seemed to do me a little good, and when I had finished my sscond there was not the slightest doubt in my mina that iv Clements Tonic I had got just the right thing for my ailments, as by that time the pains in the small of my back were so greatly reduced that there was no more need to resort to fomentations or anything of that kind, and the best part of the whole affair was that Clements Tonic not only eased me, but gave me permanent relief from my tortures. lam very pleased to be able to tell you that the pains in my side also went, likewise thlj headaches, and for restoring one's appetite I do not think there is anything to equal Clements Tonic, which was just as serviceable to my nervous system, as my nerves were toned up to a nicety. By a further use of that remedy I received a lasting release from all the painfulness which I had experienced when flatulence took hold of me after eating, the bitter taste disappeared, and dizziness ceased to affect me. To one so weakened as I was Clements Tonic is a sure friend, for its strengthening qualities were really wonderful, and to all who suffer as I did a year ago I heartily recommend a course of. the .same medicine, my reason for so doing being that Clements Tonic quite cured me." " Then I may report your remarks ?' " Certainly. You may publish them if any way."

— Few men of his clay knew better how to effectively crush an insolent opponent than, the venerable John Wesley. On one occasion he was walking along an exceedingly narrow pathway in the city of Rochester, when he was confronted by an arrogant church clergyman, who had done much to hinder the good man in his work. Meeting him face to face, where there was no room, to pass each other, the truculent cleric regarded the "Dissenter with marked disfavour. &nd haughtily said, "I never make way fo » fools To which the witfro- Wosley replied . i as he stepped aside with a pleasant smilii ' on his face: "I always do'"
