WHAT PEOPLE BAY.

Mrs M. L. Morgan, Clifton, Aratapu, Auckland, N. Z., under data 24rd Jannary, 1892, writes :— Dear 8ir — Some two years ago, having previously enjoyed fairly good health, I was taken seriously ill, and found it very difficult to get relief. At first I treated mys9lf ( thinking that I should soon be well again ; bnt my illness grew upon me and I was completely proa* trated, and unable to do anything. I sought medical advice from our local doctor, and he prescribed for me. My ailment was described as black jaundice and gallstones, and at times I suffered mnob pain. Our doctor's treatment did not do me much good, as tbe attacks were frequent and very severe. Some months passed, and I felt that I was becoming hopelessly ill. My friends were shocktd at my sallow and changed appearance, and more than one has told me since that they never expected to see me well agpin. I went to Auckland for change of air and scene, and to seek, furthur medical advice. I got it, and for time seemed to improve, tbe change evidently doing a»e good ; but it was not tonic enough, for after a week or so I was again laid op. All tbe medical advice I got in Auckland seemed unavailing, and I returned borne with very little to hope for. Here I suffered several attacks, and bad to lay up repeatedly. Vl y husband had a very poor opinion of patent medicine, but seeing Clement's Tonio advertised as of euch wonderful effect in serious cases, and being quite at a loss to suggest any other untried remedy, he brought me home a bottle, and we determined to try it. At the same time we resolved to say nothing of the medicine we were using until fnlly satined of its effects. Tbe first dose did me good, and I improved rapidly. Friends who would not have been surprised to hear of my death were really astonished at my rapid recovery. I was sooo satisfied as to tbe value of Clements Tonic, and gladly recommended it to others, and so did my husband. The storekeeper spoke to him one day, and aeked him if he bad been recommending Clement's Tonic, for he was almost sold out, and had only one bottle left. " Give it to me," said mv bnsbani : " I wouldn't be without it for anything." By the time I had taken one bottle I was able to get nbout my work again. Friends thought the improvement only temporary, bnt I am thankful to say tbat such has not been the case. Every dose did its work, and after a fortnight I only took one dose a day, in tbe early morning. I have used only three bottles, and have tbe fourth in tbe hou»e. I do not take it regularly, but fly to it on tbe least symptom of anything being wrong, and I have many times proved it to a good preventive of returning sickness. It is now eight or nine months since I recovered, and Clement's Tonic has kept me in good health all through. I can again get on with my house and dairy with comfort and pleasure. lam pleased to be able to recommend Clement's Tonic, for I have found it a true friend, and am convinced that it will give health to many now suffering if they will only give it a trial.— l am, Sir, yonrs gratefully, M. L. Morgan

11 r Balfour has met another rebnfl in the Honse of Common*. Aft r it bad been announced that the Government were willing to let their supporters vote on the Shop Hours Bill in accordance with their opinions, be w*nt out of bis way to condemn in moat unmeasured teims the leading provisions of tbe measure, and warmly urged i a authors to withdraw it. Mr Provand was not tc be caught this way. Tte disouesion had raised bis hopes too high. He insisted on a division, and to the immense disgust of Mr Balfonr the Honae passed the second reading by the substantial majority of 23 vote*. Had Mr Baltour consulted his own dignity and reputation, he wonld have kept silent, Tnere was no occasion for bis interference in the matter.
