Millions of men and women are to-day suffering the tortures of pain from various diseases, but there are few among them all who can and do describe correctly the symptoms of their disorders.

My strength ebbed away until I became pitiably weak. The little food 1 ate punished me dreadfully, and I was' never free from pain and aches. My tongue was furred and' my throat so sore that it hurt me to swallow even a mouthful of water. I thought my heart was affected, as it fluttered and beat most irregularly and was subject to spasms of intense pain. I became so thin and feeble that I could scarcely walk, and finally had to give up my employment. I was then attending the Sydney Hospital as an out-door patient, and was being treated for indigestion and general debility. I also had a gargle for my throat. But in spite of all they could do for me at the hospital I grew steadily ■worse, and began to give up all hopes of ever getting right again.

Though I really thought it useless, JL boupht a bottle on my way home. To my delight, after taking it for a few days only, I began to pick up rapidly. The soreness left my throat, my heart-action became legular, and I could eat without fear. I kept on taking the medicine, and was soon back at my work aid thoroughly cured."
