Eight hours work, eight hours sleep, eight hours play, that is the cry of the mechanic of to day. We however, have no sympathy with such cries, we do not believe in men who want to work but eight hours and keep their butchers, bakers, grocers, chemists and even wives at work from twelve to sixteen hours daily. Wives' lives now-a-daya are too frequently lives of drudgery, up at sa.m. to get her husband's breakfast, then children to wash and despatch to school, then dinner to prepare, and so on to ten at night, one continual round of work, wash and worry. Is it any wonder that they are prone to early decay and premature physical decline".' It is to be expected that they would be specially susceptible to anaemia, indigestion, liver complaint, and headache. Their mode of life and long hours indoors is almost sure to induce such diseases. Ou account of the duties nature has imposed upon the fair sex, great care .should be taken of their physical health; on the first approach of weakness or debility of any kind, a course of Clements Tonic should be taken. For female complaints Clements Tonic is a specific, it regulates the several functions of the organs of importance, it strengthens the blood, nerves, heart and brain. It fortifies the system against diseases by enriching the blood with its natural constituents to repair the waste and loss sustained through the various changes of condition the female life experiences. Clements Tonic should be taken at all critical times, as it contains the material essential to the female physical organism, it must) be effective. Of this there is no doubt: Mrs. E. C. McCarthy.. West Maitknd, X.S.W., writes:— August 19th, 1889. Dear Mr. Clements, — 1 address you thus familiarly because I consider you a brother and a friend, although I never met you. 1 have suffered excruciating agony from nervous toothache for ye;i rs, on and oti', and could get no relief. 1 had seven teetli extracted (what a wrench those dentists give us), one after the other, but as soon as one was out the pain passed to another. 1 was given one of your Medical <<uides, and there read your theory that tooths. -lie is often a symptom of An;umi,t, and I had other signs which I found you mentioned as being the effects of amende conditions. 1 also read you boast of the wonderful ejects of Clements Tonic; I was: sceptical, smiled and disbelieved, but though a tiial would do no harm, so sent for some, and in two days — Oh! joy, the pain was gone, I continued the Tonic, and am cured at last; I never expected to be, but am grateful enough to you, and you may use this if worth your while. And Mrs. Whalley describes her case in these words: — Wagga" Wa.uga, N.S. W., Jan. I'J, 1889. Your wonderful Tonic has done me more good th, in years of doctor's treatment, and has restored ne to perfect health. For years I stiffen d from nervous debility and its usual string of accompanying ailments; sometimes 1 would be desponded and melancholy, at others would have torturing | neuralgia, or nervous headache; sometimes I I would be quite worn out, tired and weak, and unable to work . I awoke in the morning with tired, aching limbs, swollen feeling in the eyes as if they would burst, sometimes headache and frequent nausea and vomiting of inueous-like green matter, and various unpleasant symptoms. Although prejudiced against proprietary medicines, I determined to try Clements Tonic and Dr. Fletcher's Pills, I took two pills every alternative night, and a tablespoonful of Clements Tonic an hour before each mealtime, and in three days I began to improve, and am now quite well. I took seven large bottles of Tonic and two boxes of pills; my constipation is quite cured, and I feel stronger and healthier than ever before. Futher evidence can be adduced to the above, which we think is conclusive.— .J. Hatch & Co., Chemist. Agents for Southland.
