MR GLADSTONE AS A DARING DINER OUT.

The London Cowrt Journal says :— "Mr Gladstone dines out with a regularity and daring that could not be excelled by a man of half his years. One who meets him often at these gastronomic tournaments says that Mr G 's participation in their enjoyments is by no means perfunctory. Some men past 60, still dining out, enjoy themselves under severe restrictions, dainti.y picking their way thoagh the menu. Mr G., past 80, is apparently under no each restrictions. He eats what comes, generally right through the menu, and can take his glass of port after his libation of champaign, a teat from which many an ardent diner oat would shrink. His mental activity is on a par with his physical vigour. His conversation is a never flaging flood, brimful of interest. If it were only possible to reproduce a verbatim report of his conversation at a dinner-party, where the personal surroundings are sufficiently interesting to excite him to talk, there would be produced a volume of interest, biographical, autobiographical, and historical. His memory is marvellous, and his power of graphically recalling an incident is the admiration of even the gentlemen behind the chairs." Mr Gladstone is to be congratulat3d on possessing a perfect liver, not all men can say toe same ; the slightest over indulgence in eating or drinking is sufficient with some people to upset the liver and cause bilious attacks ; these eventually lead to serious disease and make the sufferer's life one continual misery. Timely use of Clements Tonic with an occasional dose of Dr Fletcher's Pills will always cure the most serious cases, as shown by the proofs vouchsafed by Mibs Lucy Lammond, New Plymouth, who writes: — After many years of suffering, and travelling all ovtr the world in search of good health, it gives me great pleasure to state that Clements Tonic has done me more good than all the doctorp, and all the baths, spas and masseurs I have known. My life has been one round of misery for the past seven years, owing (so the doctors said) to liver complaint My head always ached, my limbs ached ; I was tired and languid, and I felt more tired in a morning than when I went to bed. I had sleepless and restless nights, and could get no relief. Three months back I came to New Zealand, and in my travels frequently beard and read of Clements Tonic, and mother advised me to try two or three bottles. I am pleased to say it has done wonders, I never have headaches now and I have only taken three bottles, but I feel a wonderful deal stronger and better, and you have my heartfelt gratitude for your remedy.
