Ponder, £ Profit BY A CAREFUL perusal: The Oase ef Mr. J. BLAOK. (BY A SPECIAL SIPOBTXR.) The consoling facts m a disagreeable situation are tthat real changes of an appreciable character are to be obtained if ths right means are adopted for effecting the desired ends. .The trouble usually begin* vrhen the-righb means are being £<H l ghV f° r i so to help those who Require enlightenment on cet-taiu matters Mr. James Black, of No. 76, Forth- street, Dunedin, says : — " I daresay there are hundreds of neopls who suffer iv the same way as I did, and who have no more idea of what a splendid medicine Clements Tonic is than I had when I was ailing for six months through my liver and kidneys being out of order ; and now that I am tetter, it would not be going out of my way. to let them benefit' by ifiy. experience. During my term of sickness one of my greatest' drawbacks was the loss of my appetite, which became si poor that I seemed to lose all inclination for food, and I could not enjoy what I did eat, especially m the first part of the day, when I had a very bitter taste m my mouth to begin - with." • ■.- - " What sort of a sleeper were you ia those days ?" asked the reporter who had called to make enquiries. " A veiy indifferent one, as I continued to be restless most of the nights, generally dropping off towards morning, and when I woke up I felt heavy and languid, as if my sleep had done me no good, besides being sa depressed m spirits that I took no m teres, m my work and disliked the idea of tackling it. I felt completely done up, just like a man whose vitality was all. wasted away } and occasional bilious headaches, m ths mornings particularly, made things mors unpleasant still. My breakfast Was n.arljl always retched up again, and I had a feeling m my stomach as if there was nothing but wind inside it— a matter which not onlj . provoked discomfort, bnt which Bometimei . amounted to distinct pain. My loins, too, were m a very tender condition, for if 1 stooped for a little while they ached s« mucli that it was irksome to straighten mys>. If up again ; but at all times there wat a feeling of intense weariness right through my body, which was a source of much distress to me. Some days the lassitude was bo great that I was practically helpless ta do any work, no matter how much I tried, md as timo wore on I noticed that my nerves were not as steady as they had formerly been ; but I suppose it is ouly natural for one's nervous system to become affected when there is such an extreme falling off m itrength as was the case with me. I was getting pretty woll tired of being m that wretched condition month aftor month, 1 van tell you, and how much longer I would nave remained like that ouly for Clements Tonic it is hard to say, but I am none tha less thankful to that remedy for putting my tystem into thorough working order like it did. $ Tlie way I came to use Clements Tonic was through reading somebody's testimonial, so it is only fair that I sTiould help other sufferers by giving mine, and m doing &o I can conscientiously say that Clements Tonic is a certain cure for such, ailments as I had. My food supply being 3Ut down owing to my loss cf appetite was » matter which Clements Tonic quickly overcame, for I began to eat heartily soon after starting on that medicine, and its effects upon my digestive Organs could nbs been better. The weakening fits of retching stopped, and I awoke with a wholesome palate every morning after sleeping soundly all night. My bilious headaches did not trouble me at all after a further use of Clements Tonic, and I could feci an increase of vitality m my body as each day went by." " You would then be able to work with a better grace." " Rather, and you may bet I was glad t^ be rid of the wretched feelings of languid-, ness that had afflicted me so long. Before long I felt like a new man, with my nerves greatly strengthened and my spirits as brigh. as possible through all my aches and weak' nees having passed away. I have lived m Dunedin since 1860, excepting a few years m other parts of the colony, and I recommend the use of Clements Tonic to all my suffering friends. You may publish thesw facts ia any way you please." STATUTORY DECLARATION.
