In these days of talking dolls, telegraphs, ocean cables, telephones, microphones and other electric inventions, when the occurrences ia one part of the world are telegraphed to the farthest point therefrom in one day, and when a traveller maketj a journey right round the globe in 63 days, it takes something oat of the common to startle a community, but the late experiences of Mrs Laure Mealier are enough to startle the dead. Mrs Mcetler. who resides at Mewton, N.B.W. is a native of Germany and came to this country some years ago? She has suffered from Liver and Kidney eomplaint9 for years, and* about three months previous to the present time was completely prostrated and unable to work ; dropsy of the ancles and lower limbs having set ia. We diagnosed the case ourselves 'and can truthfully assert that it was a case of advaoced dropsy due to relaxation and enfeeblement of the membranes of the liver aud Kidneys, which permitted the waste fluids to exude through them into the muscular tiseue. We advised the use of Clement's Tonic and it was taken for some weeks and has resulted in a complete cure. Mrs Mceller herself thus describes her case: — Stanley Laundry' Georgina-street, Newton, N.S.W. I can with confidence bear witness' lo the wonderful efficacy of Clement's Tonic in curing Liver and Kidney disease. I have long been a victim to indigestion (caused by liver complaint) and an affection of the kidneys. I suffored terribly from headaches, pain in the back and side, with obstinate constipation. No one except myself knows what my sufferings have been. I was always tired and languid, with no ability or inclination to perform my daily work. My tongue was furred ia a morning and a sour taste in my mouth, and frequent vomiting • one day I would be pretty well and the next, very distressed or completely prostrated with a vety confirmed langour. This went on nntil I was so ill I was completely done op ami quite unable to move. My anclss being swollen as thick as my thighs, I consulted the pbysicans, all of whom pronounced the case as one of diopsy, they variously ascribed the cause to be heart, liver or Bright's disease. The kidneys were undoubtedly diseased, because* the swollen ancles when pressed with the finger would leave a dent in the place for days, and it was easy to press the end of the finger an inch deep, when the hole would not fill up for four days. I had heard of the wonderful cares effected by Clement's Tonic and commenced its use. I took three bottles, and the swelling ia the ankles commenced gradually to subside, I continued the medicine and am now completely cured ; my ankles are their usual size, I have no aches nor pains, and can do a good day's work with pleasure ; my tired ach.ng feelings have all disappeared and I am confident I have been rescued from an untimely grave by the wonderful virtues of Clement's Tonic. My address is at the bead of this letter and I will reply to any communications if a stamped envelope is sent with inquiry, as I consider it my duty to publish a record of my wonderful care. Yours very gratefully, Laube Mcelleb, Mrs Mceller's case is only a prototype of many others in this country. Sne obtained a cure by persistent treatment, and this is the only way chronic dispase can be cured, a half-hearted treatment is | never satisfactory. You must continue the remedy for a considerable time if you want to cor* long-standiog cases, the tendency after a certain age is always towards decay, therefore if debility has been I eating ita way into the system for months or years, it is very unreasonable to expect one or two bottles to restore perfect health. All bad cases require protracted treatment.
