THE INFLUENZA. EPIDEMIC.

Tns infjuunzu is racing r.«uia this yoar >vitb.URP r °c° l !" nte d deadliness. Thepara- " iiairig 'influences of this torrible mnlady ' havoaßSumud the alarmiug dimensions of ' a plague. Tho distemper is of a powerfully destructive character, und shatters itß viotiin* with foarful suddenness. The

severity o£ the visitation . eclipses nil ..previous ntttioks. Tho modioul faculty ' fails to account for the outbreak, aud is powerless to cootrol its spread. Doctorß, .puree?, and hospitals are doing everything possible for suiferere, but are overwhelmed by tho iniiUitU'io crjiaa; bitterly for relief. A dispatch from one town states that 300 peop'.o died in ono tiny, this was about the daily average, nnd the streets wore crowded with vehicles carryiug ;he douil to their last resting pj-ioe ; nnd the sad vacancy of death depressed every household. Sach tniu.? times as these demand immediate attention. The doctors fail, and the miny advertised cough and col-i cures,are only sedatives which inieifero < 'Wittl the proper secretions oil the respiratory tract. Recourse must be had to <i genuine stimulating restorativp, which, whilst curing his gri;<, will also strengthen and support the patient, and no article the world . bus ■80 ■. far seoa can compare to j-QFeigonw Tonio for these effects . During kMio"prbat"oiitbreak of iufluenzi ia Sydney in 1890, over 5C,000 bottleß of Clements' Tonic were consumed, aud its praises were 'BHtig in every quarter na tho diaeasa was "" completely stumped out by tho use of this remedy in. four weeks. iSocb faots as this prove beyond the doubt o£ tha most unbelieving sceptic, t'ae value of Clements' Tonic for such diabases. Mrs M. Kellott, Purrumatta, N.S W., writes :— " Sir,— 'Four years ago I caught v severe cold which settled in my head and chest, nnd caused nn incessant cough and j copious ilisobar^e oE phlegm ; this brought on great weakness and debility. After considerable attention and doctors' treatment, the con^h wan rjlioved aid finally cured, but tho debility remained aad seemed to defy the skill of medical men and the power of modicinn. I had no appetite, and could scarcely eat a particle of food, and wi»b almost reduced to a skeleton, having entirely wasted away, I had taken pints of- cod-liver oi 1 , malt extracts, and other moilicin.s without relief, whan I was recommended to take Clements' Tonic. I procured a bottle, and am thankful to say that I immediately began to improve ; I conld eat better, and relish and digest what I did eat. I gained flesh every day, and my strength rapidly returned, und after six week's treatment with Clements Tonic, I felt a new woman altogether. I toak Ulcmenta' Tonic six mcutliH n^o, ami have nevur had any sicknoes sine, and am only too gla.i to add my n>imo 10 your list o£ grateful sufferers."
