By Others' An Instructive LessonMrs. E. CHACKNEUL. (by our reporter.) Mrs. Elizabeth Cracknell’s residence in Gibraltar Crescent, Parnell, Auckland, is named after a pretty little romantic seaside resort in the Isle of Wight. It is called Sbanklin Cottage, a fact that will interest the reader all the more because it was there that the following conversation took place : Reporter : “It has been mentioned to me that you have had a good deal of physical trouble in your time, and I would like to hear of it if you will kindly tell me.” Mrs. Cracknell: “That I will, because you are a newspaper man, I suppose, and want to bring before the public information that will do them good. Well, mine ought to at any rate, for I had many years of tho most intense misery, and it was not until a friend advised me to take some Clements Tonic that I knew what it was to bo free from it; and that may surprise you when you hear that I had previously been under doctors, and had taken medicines of various kinds until I was heartily sick at the mention of it.” Reporter: “ What was the cause of your misfortunes ? ” Mrs. Cracknell: “ Tho liver was disca'ed, and I was one of the most sorrowful victims to indigestion that was over seen. Indeed, when my friend came along and spoke to me about taking Clements Tonic I positively believed that I was beyond all human aid, and thought that I was going to die soon ; but I am a linn believer in clinging to life as long as possible, and if Clements Tonic was as good a,a. my friend said, then it might mo to live a little longer. And, praise the Lord ! I was well advised ; for I had not taken many bottles when I could actually feel myself getting quite well again—that is, of course, compared to the feeble and emaciated wreck I had been for so long.” Reporter: “May I hear what were the worst symptoms you experienced ?” Mrs. Cracknell! “ Well I was sometimes almost stupefied with the ponderous pains in my head, which had the effect of weighing me down under a sense of depression that left no light nor comfort in the world. I was too ill and weak even to attend to ray flowers and ferns, and more often than not ] was enduring such excruciating agony that 1 had no thought for anything, save death, which seemed to be the only means of escape from my tortures. The least food—and heaven knows what small quantities I took, for I had no appetite at all—was often the cause of me being almost bent double with windy spasms, and I swelled out so, while under the blades of my shoulders the pains could not have boon more sever© had needles been run into mo. Oh ! thank God I am out of all that, and tho aches in my back, too! and don’t I recollect how nervous I was ! almost afraid to move in case something untoward would happen ; and matters were no better for me at night, as I was too restless to sleep; but I didn’t mind that much, for I had such nasty dreams when I did. Then, first thing, tho perpetual taste of hilo in my mouth, with sometimes a greenish fluid rising up from the stomach, and to think that nothing would ever relieve me was more awful still. Oh ! pity help those in the same straits, for my heart bleeds for them, andmyoue ambition is tocommunicate to the whole civilised world the truth concerning the efficacy of Clements Tonic.” Reporter: “ That seems natural after your previous failures.” Mrs Cracknell : “ Yes ; for there was a time when 1 could hardly move without getting giddy, when my eyes were dull ami sunken, and when life itself became unbearable ; and when the blessed change came, it was through using Clements Tonic, which alone snatched me from the critical condition I was in, and helped me on the road of health and happiness that I have traversed ever since. I could eat better and digest my food more readily after I had taken a fow bottles of Clements Tonic than I had been able to do for years, and in good time I was as free from every kind of pain as I could be ; my nerves were stronger, and in bodily health I was like a new woman. For tho consolation of the afflicted you may publish my story in any form you choose.” STATUTORY DECLARATION, I. Ei.iziliETii (JR4CXNKI.L, ol Shankliu Cottage, Gibraltar Crescent.
