" It was, r although at' the time 1 did hot, know what was the cause of my distress, as

I thought I had lumbago ' and Was treating mysel for that complaint. The pains in the lower part of my back were so dreadful thai I had to use hot fomentations and poultices on the part affected ; but even tljose remedies only gave me temporary' re. lief. When, I got out of bod it was only with a painfully, slow and uncertain, gait that I went about, and, beinf so frightfully weak, I Boon became exhausted and had to return to" bed •gain,, where I'never, slept without having unpleasant dreams, and more often than I did not sleep unti' mprningarrlved. Awful pains in the right side £nd aches all my limbs continually harassed me, and jwnie*»meßl had to endure headacftes'as'well; 'l'believe'that the n*sty bitter taste which came to my mouth every morning had something to do with spoiling my appetite, which got very poor, and every .tiling seenied to have Ibe same lavot-; Quite regularly I became troubled with flatulence after taking my"food, 'and the pains like r apasms .that' ; cihie to flnfiy stomach were' almost unbearable. It looked as though 1 was going to be subjected to all the ailments that aire possible to be experienced, as; in 'additibn'to wHai'l have already told you, I was frequently affected by turns of dizziness, and my nerve* ..were getting weaker every day." ' ' ' ."■ AndallthatUnwyouthenght you had lumbago." . ' "Yes; and it mi not till I read a Clements Tonic book that I really knew what was wro»g«iWith M.e, for in it there were several carts just like mine, where people spoke of being oared of disordered livers by Clements Tonio, and I thought it' wise.to;try the;same medicine.' The- very first bottle seemed to do me a little good, and when I had finished my second there I was°n6t the "slightest dbiibli in my mind that in Clements Tome 1 I ha'd 1 g»t just ! th# tight thing for ; my ailments, as by that time fchepainsin the, small .of my back were s* greatly' reduced thai' there' was' no' more need to i'esort'to' fomentation* or anything of that kind, and the best part of the whol« 1 affair was that Clements Tonic not onl j eased me, but gave.me ; permanent relief my tortures. I am very pleased to bf able to tell you that the pains in my sid# also went, likewise the headaches, and fot restoring one's appetite I d» act think fchers it anything to enual Clements Tonio, which was just as serviceable to my nervous sy* tern, as my nerves were toned up to a nicety.
