"TO CURE LA GRIPPE."

The influenza is raging again this year with unprecedented deadliness. The paralising influences of this terrible malady have as3umed the alarming dimensions of a plague. £he distemper is of a powerfully destructive character, and shatters its victims with fearful suddenness. The severity of the visitation eclipses all previous attacks. The medical faculty fails to account for the outbreak, and is powerless to control its Bpread. | Doctors, nurses, and hospitals are doing everything possible for sufferers, but are overwhelmed by the multitudel crying bitterly for relief. A dispatch from one town states that 300 people died in one day, this was about the daily average, and the streets were crowded with vehicles carrying the dead to their tast resting place; and the sad vacancy of death depressed every household. Such Irylng times as these demand immediate attention. The doctors fail, and the many advertised cough and cold cures are only sedatives which interfere with the proper secretions of the respiratory tract. Recourse must be had to a genuine stimulating restorative, which, whilst curing his grip, will also strengthen and support the patient, and no article the world has so far seen can compare to Clements Tonic for these effects. During the great outbreak of influenza in Sydney in 1890, over 50,000 bottlea of Clements Tonic were consumed, and its praises were sung in every quarter as the disease was completely stamped out by the use of this remedy in four weeks. Such facts as thia prove beyond the doubt of the most unbelieving sceptic, the value of Clements Tonic for such diseases. Mrs M Kellett, Parramatta, N.S.W., writes : — " Sir, — Four years ago 1 caught a severe cold which settled in my head and chest, and caused an incessant cough and copious discharge of phlegm ; this brought on great weakness and debility. After considerable attention and doctor's treatment, the cough was relieved and finally cured, but the debility remained and seemed to defy the ■kill of the medical men and the power of medicine. I had no appetite, and could scarcely eat a particle of food, and was almost reduced to a skeleton, having entirely wasted away. I had taken pints of codliver oil, malt extracts, and other medicines without relief, when I "vaa recommended to take Clements Tonic. I procured a bottle,and am thankful to say that I

I immediately began to improve ; I could eat better, and relish and digest what I did eat. I gained flesh 3 very day, and my strength rapidly returned, and after six week's treatment with Clements Tonic, I felt a new woman altogether. I took Clements Tonic six months ago, and have never had any sickness since, and am only too slad to add my name to your list of grateful sufferers." Remember you must get the genuine "Clements" Tonic, sold by chemists, grocers and storekeepers, everywhere.
