A SCOTCHMAN'S PHILOSOPHY.

An old Scotchman is said to hay« risen in prayer-meeting one night and apiopos of nothing delivered himself of the following remarks : " There ace three things I never could quite understand. First, why boys will throw sticks at green apples whan, if they waited, the apples would ripen and drop off ; secondly. I never could quite oomprebend 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 tbe men chase around after the women, since, if they sat still, the women wonld 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 feeling in tbe morning, headaches and nervousness, sour taste in the mouth, etc. All these are signs that the physical body is deranged and that if treated lightly, serious danger is to be apprehended. Alfred Saundera, Esq., Octagon, Dunedin, says :— Clements' Tonic and Fletcher's Pills cured me of nervous debility after I had consulted ten medical men, and spent £200 on their fees and medicines. The advertising quacks robbed me altogether. It in disgraceful that the law allows the depredations of these harpies. I can honestly recommend Clements' Tonic. It must be good. Mine was a bad case, as most of the doctors here can prove. Of course I had to take a long course, but that was to be expected, for I had been terribly humbugged, but I am at last restored to health and strength solely by Clements' Tonic.
