A SCOTCHMAN’S PHILOSOPHY.
An old Scotchman is said to have risen m prayer meeting one night, and. apropos of nothing, delivered himself of the following remarks:—“There are three things I never could quite understand. First, why boys will throw sticks at green apples, when, if they waited, the apples would ripen and drop off; secondly, I never could quite comprehend why men go to war to kill each other when if they remained quietly at home they would die a natural death in good time ; thirdly, and most important of all, I do not see why the men chase around after the women, since, if they sat still, the women would run around after them,'* How true that death comes to all men, to some so prematurely, who neglect the warning symptoms of approaching disease, such as a tired aching feelmg in the morning, headaches and nervousness, sour taste in the month, etc. All these are signs that the physical body is deranged, and that if treated lightly eerioua danger is to be apprehended. W. Swanson, Esq., 70 King William street, Fitzroy, Mel bourne, says :— 44 About three years ago I was seized all of a sudden with great lassitude, dizziness, and extreme nervousness, eo great that I was unable to rally after any effort. My digeetive organs were so impaired and my liver so congested that I was scarcely able to eat any solid food, and gradually became so weak that I could barely drag myself along. After using a number of doctors* medicines and advertised remedies to no purpose I started on a course of Clements Tonic, which brought me great relief, especially when using Dr. Fletcher’s Fills as well. Then I gained weight and strength quickly. 1 took altogether 12 bottles of Clements Tonic and 4 boxes cf Fletcher’s Pills, and my health and vigour increased under their healthful stimulus.” Mias Amelia Mensh, 471 King street, Melbourne, writes: “1 hav© suffered most acutely from neuralgia, so muck that my face often 'swelled great, and caused me much agony. I can truly say that Clements Tonic gave mo prompt and vexy great relief.** Head office and laboratories, 212 A*Beckett street. Melbourne.
Clements Tonic is now sold at 3s. and ss. per bottle. If your local chemist declines to sell at these prices, go to H. Francis and Co., Bonrke* street, or llood and Co., Elizabeth street, who will supply you. F. M. Clemente, 212 A’Beckett street, Melbourne.
