Mark Twain tells the story that, at the inquest on the body of Buck Fanshaw —who during the dilirium of a raging typhoid fevrr had taken arsenic, shot himself through the body, out bis throat, and jumped out of a four-storey window, breaking his neck—the jury, after due deliberation, sad and tearful, but with inteiligeuoe unblinded by its sorrow, brought in a verdict of “ death by the visitation of God.” Buok undoubtedly committed suicide, and so does every one who neglects tbe drat symptoms of approaching sickness and disease. Nature always gives ample notice of any disturbance of physical processes; sometimes it is neuralgia, sometimes a sharp, shooting pain in tbe abdomen or side, or a dull throbbing headache ; no two persons get tbe same symptoms. What you have to do is to attack the drat symptoms, for if consumption, dropsy, cancer, or Bright’s disease once gels a start you cannot stop their headlong course to the grave. These are facts there are no disputing, for all the medical skill t in the world cannot do much for you when real organic disease has set in. We emphatically recommend Clements Tome because we know by personal experience and by the evidence of induential and reliable people who have used it thot it will do good and prevent disease Clements Tonio is a medicine that investigates and strengthens the entire corporal organism ; it does not only affect certain members, but strengthens the whole system, thus preventing the attacks of disease. The assertions of tbe manufacturers are borne out and proved by Mr Charles Page, butcher, Maitland-road, Islington, New South Wales, who writes on January 17th, 1893 • This is to certify that I have used Clements Tonic, as I have been a victim to extreme nervousness and general debility (that is what 1 believed I was suffering from) and continual headaches, with complete loss of appetite. I have lain night after night unable to get a wink of sleep, and arose in the morniog more tired than when I went to bed at night. Well, I found no relief from anything 1 tried. A friend of mine said Why don’t you try Clement’s Tonio ?'* I took hia advice and did so, and I dan say that before I bad finished the first bottle I was relieved, a>-d by the time I had taken the second bottle I found myself entirely cured. I have never had a return of my complaint 'since. lam only too happy to recommend Clements Tonic on all occasions, as I believe from experience that it is one of the greatest aids to appetite in the world, and as a strengthener of tbe system there is nothing in the world to equal it. If you think by publishing this it will benefit others you are at liberty to do so. — Tours sincerely, Charles Page, butcher, Maitland-road, Islington, New South Wales.
