creased ia intensity as time wove on, and often I have been so bewildered and dazed by them that I did not know what I was doing. I have felt the blood throbbing through my temples in such an exasperating manner t.iat I really feared I would lose my senses. Tlr ,- > an overbearing sense of giddiness used to happen, and I was Just tike a man m a trance, being scarcely conscious of anything going on around me. After a while I somewhat revived from this state of stupor, and then I realised more fully the appalling condition of misery my shattered health had involved.” ‘‘You wore undoubtedly in a very bad way.” “ You’re right. I could not have been any worse than I was, and still chug to life. I was usually costive, but sometimes I had attacks of diarrhoea, which made me weaker than ever. 'Thoughts about the future used t|o worry me a great deal, as there did not seem to be the remotest chance of my lost health being regained. Even if I happened to snatch a brief s.eep I was not at rest, as my mind was disturbed by horrifying dreams, in which I distinctly saw the most repulsive forms and faces. My life was a living torture, and I often longed for my adversities to be ended one way or another. When a person’s constitution is besoiged by disease, there is no happiness in life, and I used to think that if I did not soon get better it would be a bloss'ng to die. The bones almost protruded through my skin, and my face was ns sallow and hollow as that of a corpse.” “ What kind of treatment were you receiving ?” “ In the earlier part of my sufferings I was sent to the hospital. There I received every care and attention, but the treatment was evidently not the right sort, for I got no better. The medicines they gave me made me feci very siet-. My stomach was too weak t > retain them. Then I was given something that I con'd drink all right, but it, failed to have the desired eti'oet. At last I left the hospital, and thmi I commenced to speculate in minv advertised remedies, which were s'aged to be good for my complaints. They :ir;;v ed to bo a lot of frauds. Not one of them had the virtues they enim-. • possess, so I lost all confidence in paten' medicines, and abandoned hope entirely. It is very hard to suffer from an incurable disease, and no one but myself can have a faint idea of the mental anguish I endured. “To look at you now, Mr. Bethka, your disease was not incurable?” “Neither is any other complaint, if folks only knew the right remedy—a secret which was imparted to me by an entire stranger, who heard about my case. He wrote me a friendly word or •advice in regard to Clements Tmrc which I acted upon. The first bottle benefited me somewhat, as my head was greatly relieved, and I could sleep. The stomach and chest pains were alleviated, and I became contented and hopeful. Appetite returned, my food soon digested, and in time Clements Tonic gave mo nerves of steel. In short, my d scare was completely cured by Clements Tome, and I have not had a day’s sickness far twelve years. Yon are at liberty to pnb’ish these facts in any way you deSTATUTORY DECLARATION.
