CONGRATULATIONS FROM AUCKLAND.

The Hon J. A. Tole to-day forwarded to the Hon W. E. Glad* stone the following cablegram :— " Bight Hon Gladstone, M.P., London. Accept our warmest united congratulations. All Motions of Ireland should accept Bill. (Signed) J. A. Tole, President IrW Federation, Auckland, N.Z. -

Anguish of mind has driven many to suicide, anguish of body never. This proves that the health of the mind is of far more consequence to our happiness than the health of the body, although both are deserving of mnch more attention than either receives. In protracted cases of disease it is the continual mental strain and worry that enervates and finally undermines the whole system and destroys the vital spark. How m-iny men apparently healthy to-day are are lying in a cold grave a week he:ce. They are negligent of their health and think they can shake every attack off, tbe effdct of such foolishness becomes apparent to every man sooner or later, and wise is he who never neglects the symptoms of disease but takes precautions, as did a gentleman who writes :—": — " I write to let you know that I am a patron of your wonderful Clements Tonic ; I have beea-a great sufferer, and read of Mrs Mcc lei's cure in the newspapers, her case was nothing to mine, but, thank God ! through her letter I am cured, and after the doctors had pronounced sentence of death on me. I am very grateful to Mrs Mcc her for her letter. I have great pleasure in adding my testimony to that of tbe many others cured of serious diseases by the use of Clements Tonic ; I have Buffered terribly from liver and kidney disease. Two years ago my strength began rapidly to decline, I hai dull headache, completely lost my appetite, and was almost blind — (failure of Bight is a symptom of Bright's disease. — Bd), I had tiger claw cramps in tbe calves of my legs, and severe rheumatic pains, followed by diarrhoea, strength continued to fail, accompanied by extreme pallor of tbe face, puffed under the eyes and pereis'ent swellings of legs, knees and ankles, and my whole body was ewolleo to a wonderful size ; sharp shooting pains pierced the heart and frequently chills and fever would attack me. Tbe swelling was so bad that I was afraid to even drink a glass of water. I con* suited a doctor, and he examined my water, and he said it was a bad cass of liver disease, and also Brighi's disease of the k dneys ; b« prescribed medicine and liniments with mustard bathi. I said, " Doctor, if you will cure me, I will pay you what you like." He replied, "I can hold out no hope for you." I said, "That is very hard." •' I never like to take a man's money," said he, "without telling him the trnth, and 1 will come to you at any hour of the night you may send for me." He thought I should soon die, I gave his treatment a fair trial, but tbe swelling of my body increased so much that I had to remain in bed ; the pains increased and extended all down the side, and my eyesight was now almost completely gone. I consulted another medical man who, after sounding me and testing my urine, said I bad Brighi's disease. I asked if he could cure me, he said he would do his best, and if I wonld continue his medicine I should improve ; I did so and it bad but little more effect than water. Two friends of mine called my attention to Mrs Mceller's letter in the paper who had been cured of tbe same disease by Clements Tonic. I procured a supply, and taking it strictly in accordance with the directions, tbe swelling began to go down, I kept up tbe use of Clements Tonic, and now, thank God, I am cared, my swellings have all subsided, my eyesight is as good as ever. I took a good maoy bottles, but that is nothing, as it has cured me, and I cannot describe its value. — Yours tiuly, Thomas Irvine, Tatham, N.8.W." Snfferer's must Bee that they get Clement's Tonic only, as many swindles are on the market. F. M. Clements, 212 A'Beckett street, Melbourne.

It is much easier to find a ecore of men wise enough to discover the truth than to find one intrepid enough, in the face of opposition, to stand up for it.
