DON'T BE PREJUDICED.

Prejudice is as varied in its operation as its victims are conn. less. Like sunshine and rain, it falls upon tin cvi! and the good ; but unlike the gifts of God, it is onlr fruitful of mischievous wron^. -Many a Fad and lonely boul is wearing out to-day v life become pitiable by prejudice .Many a bright hope and \noble aspir.itioa has been blasted by its withering influenza. In the world around us there are those who longed to do — ay. and would have done — yeoman's service for God and truth and rL'ht had not the black shadow of prejudice blocked their progress. Surely we mayc.ill it a cruel and a' cowardly vice. Not only bo, it is a foolish one as well. Like justice — thouuh in a far different sense— prejudice ia'blind ; for, while every potent to oppress and injure the good, it juet as often perhaps places the unworthy upon a pedestal of honor. Led by the passing gossipof triflers, even well intentioned men^ too lazy or too careless to examine for themselves, surrender to its influence whatever fairmindedne s they have, and thus private reputations, social reforms, nat'onal affaire, and even religious observations become tbe victims of rvbat in neither more no less than criminal thoughtlessness. f)ont be prejudiced against Clements Tonic because it is a patent medicine, or because some unscrupulous chemists nn/J doctors deprecate it. They only speak against it because it pays them better to mix some of their own coDcoctions ; and in this case you hace to take ycur chance of getting what may suit your case, for it all depends whether they may have the required drug in stock at the time. Now, this, is not th;; case with Clements Tonic, for every article required in the manufacture oil this remedy is speciully imported, and used for no other purpose ; consequently it is reliable and genuine. Clements Tonic does not cl iim to euro anything ; but in many special forms of disease it has been pro red to possess wonderful curative properties. Therefore, is it not better for sufferers to use this remedy,' which has been proved reliable in thousands of cases, than that they should be experimented on by physicians and psuedo cheaiiet-practitioners. You know you get a genuine article in Clements Tonic, while it is very doubtful if even the man who mixes your medicine haphazard knows for certain what he'sputting in the bottle. Exceptions always prove the rule, and an eminent physician under date November 12, r90:r 90 : " Dear eir, — It giveß mo much pleasure to send \ou an ucknow lodgment of the therapeutical value of Clementp Tonic. It behoveß a mcdii al man to be extremely careful in lauding the value of any patent medicine,

the great majority being ( entirely worthless. '' I have,, Jbod, ' however, practical demonstration in two cases of extreme debility which have been under- ray personal supervision, and which, I am baßpy to tell you, made a wonderfully rapid recovery by the use of Clements Tonic. One very valuable eni you have achieved is that Clements Tonic can be tolerated by an irritable stomach, which is so often concomitant with atonic dyspepsia, and which frequently debars the phyeician from prescribing many valuable remedies, most of which you have, however, combined in Clements Tonic. In conclusion, permit me to congratulate.you on the success you have obtained, and which you thoroughly deserve. — I am, etc.! Wiston Baker, M.D., C. M,, L. R. C S., L. R. C. P., Edio.

W.), writes: " I have great pleasure in adding my testimony to. the efficacy of Clements Tonic, I suffered from general debility and low fever, which had afflicted me for two yeais, and Clements Tonic set "me up completely, I am never without it . in tho house, and I find a few doses a capital pick-me-up after fatigue, and I always recommend it to my patierits when it is needed, — ,Yours truly, Mrs E, Pike."
