BLOOD IMPURITY. PIMPLES LIKE YOUNG BOILS.

BILIOUSNESS and DYSPEPSIA-

I A REMARKABLE CURE IN DUNEDIN.

I The Case of Mr. F. PALMEB.

(By a Local Repot Ur.)

Our interviewer met Mr. Frederick Palmer, of No. 107 Hanover-street, Dunedin, who stated that whilst working in the fruit trade between Auckland and Fiji, his blood got in a bad sate " Piinpies came out all over my body, said Mr. Palmer. " They were just like young boils, with a distressing aching pain, which proved a source of continua annoyance. After a while these pimples became very itchy and irritating, and the more I scratched, the more they itched. The torture was unendurable, sometimes making me rub and rub tilL the taps came otf, and thus the exasperating irritation was intensified. I got no proper rest at, .night — very ofien no sleep at all — and I got up nearly every morning, feeling thoroughly unfit for work. If t' got four or five hours sleep out of tho twenty-four I did remarkably wel. s bufr-at wos~nofc an unusual "thing for me to lie in misery all night through ana nobv sleep half-an-hour. When I die dose off it waa generally about the time I should be getting up, but I wa* SO' exhausted and done up that I wat gad to yield at -any time to the overpowering sense of weariness which sometimes brought a brief repose. Or awaking, I always found my pillow we with a saliva which had been runnin, from my mouth." " Perhaps you were also suffering from biliousness?" hazarded the reporter.

"I am fcuie i uus. Au^im y 1. 'jour ing under an attack ot' biliousness unever in doubt about the matter, as the symptoms are made too forcibly evident to allow of any room for doubt. 1 can ttd^ance'DO reason whatever for this ailment, coming on, unless it be attributable to the hot spells of weather I experienced whilst doing business in the tropical; islands. I do not remember suffering from bile before this attack, neither are any of my relatives of a bUious temperament. But, a t any rate, I fell into a frightfully bad state of hoalth altogether. I had not the leas' desire for food, having complefe'y lost my appetite. About as much food as wovdd satisfy a delicate child was always' enough for me, and I felt quite bloated and stuffed after eating it. A mostuncomfortabJe feeling appeared in my chest, which felt overburdened and weighed down. symptoms were followed by depressing, stifling sensations which I had to endure for long periods. On getting out of bed in th? mornings, the objectionable taste of bile ' was in my mouth, and my tongue was dry and furred. The food that lay undigested in my stomach turned to wind, thus causing almost incessant be' chin g of sour gases. Sickly headaches were my* incessant tormentors; but the heaviest load I had to carry was a terrible mental gloom that made my existence • hardship. Of course, I sank into a ■erious state of weakness, and my flesh quickly went out of sight. The last ounce of strength seemed to be sapped out of me, my nerves also being unsettled and deranged. Costiveness was s regular trouble from which I tried in Tain to get relief." "What kind of medicines did you take; Mr. Palmer?"

"I'camiofc remember the names of all of them now, but at all events they did me no good. In spite of everything I took my.sulment*remainedunconqucrei. -Howerw, whi/st reading the pa>p©r one evening, my. eyes happened to rest. on ar report relating to one of the most wonderful things I ever read. It was all about a person who had suffered greajbly .like myself, and who was mado well) by a course of Clements Tonic. The idea struck me at once that 1 ought to foltofo" "in that man's footsteps, and so I did. Theiirdt bottle of Clements Tonic worked wonders. I felt greatly improved in many ways. *For instance, the aggravating itching soon became a little* easier, and there was a considerable cessation of those painful aches which Lad so long affected my limbs. The conIbted ahtte 0$ my hovrela wan altered W« regularity- wbioJi wm hitherto ua-

known to me, and there was abundant proot of tli© cleansing properties of Cieiß.Gnts Tonic, for the pimples on my skin soon dried up and disappeared altogether. I also experienced the rest and relief afforded by sleeping soundly at night, without being dl&turbed by unpleasant dreams. "* The mornings round me refreshed and full of energy. Those direful feelings of apathy and listlessaesa were effectively stamped out by Clements Tonic, and I am sure- there is 'lolhing in the world to compare with chat medicine for removing bodily pains. Even my bilious headaches departed; but in the meantime I had gained a- heaithy appetite. Mv digestive organs were repaired thoroughly [ustoad of fermonting and turning to wind, my food now nourished and strengthened my weakened system. As a blood purifier, Cements Tonic has no equal, as it gave me a clear skin and a fresh complexion in place of a yellow colour and disfiguring eruptions, bet •idea making mv breath pure and my mouth sweet. When I liad taken three bottles 1 had to wait for a week before I couid get any more, on account of being out of touch with civilization' ; but I got another bottle or two as soon as I had tho chance. These were enough to make the cure perfect, for by the timo they were finished, I had i- gained all my lost vitality, my frame ■vaa well covered with flesh, and th© de -.argem'-nU of my nervous system Were et aside. After reaping so> much benefit 'rom tho use of Clements Tonic I naturally recommend it to any invalid who comes under my notice." " What are the usual results of youi recommendations ?"

" The results are always satisfactory. A case in point is that of my wife, who some years back waa in an alarming slate of health. She could not walk across the room without feeling a fit of giddiness como on, and .was everlastingly complaining about being weary and fati I do not wonder at it, because he was never hungry, and she was unib!o to digest the light diet partaken jf. She used to suffer with terrible oa.ins in the -head, chest, and side, besides enduring frightful agonies in the stomach and between the shoulders. ■sho could not keep the food dona at ( \\\, bub was eonl.inua.ily vomiting and -draining her inside. A terrible nwrv oits prostration ensued, and at last my wife could hot wa-k; J-he was too weak ilicn she went to the hospital, where a title temporary relief was' obtained, u .ufc a second visit was Booni necessary, .md thus she continued backwards and forwards, till, altogether ,she was in hospitals three years. Besides pref-crib-hg all sorts of medicines, the doctors administered blisters and plasters to further orders, but their treatment did nob bring the ionged-for relicf v Some doctors said it was an exceptionally severe case of general debility, whilst another medical man said she was suffering from an internal complaint. It seems as if they did not know what to make of her disease, but in any case she was several times very near the grave, and I am sure nobody could be so miserable and hopeless as she was. As the doctors could not cure her, my wife resorted to Clements Tonic, and thus she was saved. Clements Tonic eased all pains, toned -the- nerves, restored strength, and, in short, made her a healthy woman-. Publish these facts in any way you choose."
