BY A CAREFUL a%w The Case of Mr. J. BUIOK. (BY A SPECIAL RJPOKTKR.) The consoling facta In a disagreeable situation are that real changes of an app< eciable character are to be obtained if the right means are adopted for effecting the desired ends. The trouble usually begins when the right means are being sought for, So to help those who require enlightenment on certain matters Mr. Janies Black, of No. 76, Korth-street, Duuedin, says : " I daresay there are hundreds of peopltt who suffer in the same way as I did, and who have no more idea of what a splendid medicine Clements.Tonic is than Iliad when I was ailing for sir months through my liver and kidneys being out of order; and now that I am Letter, it would not be going out of my Way to let them benefit by my experience. During my term of sickness one of my greatest drawbacks was the loss of my appetite, which became so poor that I seemed to lose all inclination for food, and I could nt enjoy what I did eat, especially in the first part of the day, when I had a very bitter taste in my mouth to begin with." " What sort of a sleeper were yon in those days ?" asked the reporter who had called to make enquiries. " A very indifferent one, as I continued to be restless most of the nights, generally dropping off towards morning, and when I woke up-I felt heavy and languid, as if my sleep had done me no good, besides beingsa depressed in spirits that I took no interest in my work and disliked the idea of tackling it. I felt completely done up, just liks a man whose vitality was all wasted away ; and occasional bilious headaches, in thei mornings particularly, made things more unpleasant still. My breakfast was nearly always retched up again, and I had a feeling in my stomach as if there was nothing but wind inside it~a matter which not only provoked discomfort, but which sometimes amounted to distinct pain. My loins, too, were in a very tender condition, for if I stooped for a little while they ached so much that it was irksome to straighten tnya If up again ; but at all times there was a feeling of intense weariness right through my body, which whs a source of much distress to me. Some days the lassitude was so great that I was practically helpless to do any work, no matter how much I tried, and as time wore on I noticed that my nerves were not as steady as they had formerly been ; but I suppose it is only natural for one's nervous system to become affected • when there is such an extreme falling off iu strength as was the case with me. I was getting pretty well tired of being in that wivtcbod condition month after month, I ,can tell you, and how much longer I would have remained like that only for Clements Tonic it is hard to say, but I am none the ' leas ih.inkful'.lo that remedy for putting my system into thorough working order like it did. The way I came to use Clements Tonic was through reading somebody's testimonial, so it is only fair that I should help other euffcreis by giving mine, and in doing to I can conscientiously say that Clements Tonic is a certain euro for such ailments as I had. My food'supply being cut down owing to my loss of appetite was a matter which Clements Tonic quickly overcame, for 1 began to eat heartily soon after starting on that medicine, and its effects upon my digestive organs could not been hotter. The weakening fits of retching stopped, and I awoke • with a wh lesome palate every morning after sleeping soundly all night. My bilious headaches did not trouble me at,all after a further use of Clements Tonic, and I could feel an increase of vitality in my body as each day went by." " You would then bo able to work with & better grace." " Kather, and you may bet I was glad to be rid of the wretched feelings of languidnets that had afflicted mono long. Before long I felt like a new man, with my nerves greatly sti engthened and my spirits as bright as possible through all my aches and weakness having passed away. I have lived in Duuedin since 1860, excepting a few years in other parts of the colony, and I recommend the use of Clements Tonic to all my suffering friends. You may publish thett facts in any way you please." BTATUTORY DECLARATION.
