WHAT INVENTION HAS DONE.

What has invention done? Well, this .will serve as an example merely. It used to take by old methods, as compared with inventions now used, five times as much labour in boot- making, four times as much in |flour-making, three times as much in coal-mining, six times as much in making tin cans, three times ac much in carriagemaking, and ten times as many looms can now be managed by one weaver. At a silver mine in Nevada a stream of water falling 460 ft is made to turn a waterwheel, and gives 200 horse-power. The same stream is carried down another 1680 ft, and is caught on six water-wheels, giving off 750 horse-power, which by means of electricity k conveyed to the Burface, and runs a 60-stamp battery. It is by the same inventions— the waterwheel and electricity — that the great task of using Niagara i 3 about to be effected. Only 4 per cent, of the water will be used ; it will not be noticeable, but that quantity will supply 120,000 horse-power. The power will not be used on the spot, but will be conveyed by electric wires, probably to a town sixteen nu'es away on the United States side. In the fields of therapeutics, medicine and pharmacology invenments over the signatures ot influential citizens are conclusive, as instanced by W. H. Goddard, Esq., manager Commercial Bank, Newtown, N.S.W., who writes : — " I have very much pleaeure in stating that my family and myself have derived very great benefit by the use of Clements Tonic which I strongly recommend and urge any one suffering from weakness and debility, so prevalent in this enervating climate, never to be without" And Mr M. Gordon, Hawthorne, Vie. aays: — "Permit me to offer my grateful thanks for the wonderful relief I have ex perienced by the use of Clements Tonic, I ■offered from nervousness and general debility and indigestion for eleven years, never knowing what it was to be free from misery and pain. I procured Clements Tonic and the effect was simply marvellons. Three bottleer* moved "11 pain and •offering, j,my appetite came back and I

could eat a good hearty meal and enjoy it and what was more, I conld digest it afterwards without that terrible tired feeling which always followed my meals before taking Clements Tonic. I continued the medicine and took altogether thirteen bottles, and honestly believe it has been the making of a new system for me and that I have gained by the use *>£ Clemenls Tonic a new leaae of life, I Bhall always tive genius has resulted in the discovery of an almost infallible remedy known as Clements Tonic. We know that this article is capable of cauaiug more change in affected organisms than any other medicine the world has seen : this is due to its peculiar operation on the organa of digestion, assimilation, secretion and excretion, for on these four processes life depends, for where one of these important functions is improperly performed, genaral impairment of the system sets in and results in chronic disease and finally death. It is sound wisdom to commence treatment of cases of debility, indigestion, headaches, .liver complaints, ets., at their unset, as if neglected a permanent change takeß place in the tissues, the disease becomes chronic and all r.he medical skill in the world then cannot, restore the normal state ; this is a fact admitted on all sides. We can emphatically recommend Clements Tonic in all such and many other Cases, because we have" seen it in use in scores of houses and have never yet heard a doubt as to its efficacy, weknosvit contains the material to make its action certain, sure and promph, and the endorsements over the signatures of influential citizens are conclusive, as instanced by W. H. Goddard. Esq., manager Commercial Bank, Newtown, N.S.W., who writes :—": — " I have very much pleasure in stating that my family and myself have derived very great benefit by the use of Clements Tonic which I strongly recommend and urge any one suffering from weakness and debility, so prevalent in this enervating climate, never to be without." And Mr M. Gordon, Hawthorne, Victoria, says: — "Permit me to offer my grateful thanks for the wonderful relief I have experienced by the use of Clements Tonic, I suffered from nervousness and general debility and indigestion for eleven years, never knowing what it was to be free from misery and pain. I procured Clements Tonic and the effect was simply marvellous. Three 'bottles removed ah pain and suffering, my appetite catae back and I could eat a good hearty meal and enjoy it and what was more, 1 oould digest it afterwards without that terriblr tired feeling which always followed my meals before taking Clements Tonic. I continued the medicine and took altogether thirteen bottles, and honestly believe it has been the making of a new system for me and that I have gained by the use of Clements Tonic^a new lease of life, I shall always praise and recommend it, having personally -proved beyond all question its wonderful efficacy.
