TROUBLES RELATED.!-

The Story of Success. ,' j The Case erfMr. R. P. GIBSON. I (BY A SPECIAL RIPOBTZR.) Mr. Robert Patterson Gibson, grocer,, ol | Patterson-street, Freeman's Bay, Auckland, - recently had a yarn with our reporter, and aa the subject discussed waa of unusual importance, it ia here given for the edification of our readers. The reporter asked :— " Are you the Mr. Gibson wlso lived in j Broken Hill some eight years ago ? " " I did live there about that time, but I other Gibsona resided in Broken Hill besides j myself." " But are you the geutleniaw who suffered from lead poisoning ? " "Oh ! I see. That's what you want to ! hear about," replied Mr. Gi/ison. " Yes ; I am the man of that name who was lead I poisoned, and a very bad case it was, too. It affected my system fnom end to end— from head to foot, and a terrible time I had with it My complaint attacked mc in a very stealthy manner, and for weeks I conld feel myself gradually getting worse and worse, and towards the latter end my legs became so pained and stiffened that it waa only with the greatest difficulty my work could be continued. I was mining then, and you know that a miner has a good deal of stooping to do, and what bothered mc more than you would think was to get myself straight from the bending positions my work compelled mc to adopt, for the pains in the small of my back were entrerr.ely severe."' ''Were you ever obliged to neglect your work ? " "I could just manage to jog along, and that waa all; but I can tell you it waa a very hard struggle to keep going, a3 my digestion was all upset, and so were my nerves. In my head I was afflicted with pains of such a severe type that I could not content myself anywhere, for if I wanted to read the paper or write a letter the incessant pains would not allow of it, aa it was impossible to bring my thoughts to bear upon anything. Now I come to think of it, too, my appetite was very bad, and I had more sleepless nights whilst that illness \va3 on than I have had all the rest of my life put together. It was something that 1 abhorred to go to bed, for it waa nothing but twisting and inruing all night long, and the taste I had in the mornings was really vile." " When you took some food how did you feel! " " Worse than ever ; with heavy pains in my chest that made it almost impossible to breathe, wind on the stomach, and a dull sensation between tbe shoulders that lent colour to the belief that; I had caught a cold. To put the matter in plain English, 1 was fairly broken up. for the poison was getting further into my system, and tlie agony I was in was insufferable ; but, thank ' !od, I found a remedy at last, and thai | was Clements Tonic. A friend haviup ml vised mc to take it. because he had been in the same plight himself, he said, and that's what cured him. In regard to m> own sufferings I can safely say thai Clements Tonic was wonderfully effective. *s it reduced the stomach pains very quickly and then gave mc ease in other directions. [ said how I had satTered with my headwell, when I had been on Clements Tcnitwo weeks or thereabouts there was not tt.t -slightest sign of an ache ieft, and by thai time I wi\s getting along so well at meal times that my appetite surprised even nyself." " il Was your digestion any better?" " Oh ! ever so much, and from that ou! all I had to do was to keep taking ClementTonic a little while longer, and then mv afflictions wero entirely ended. The crijipling pains had left my legs, and ttit-i aching sensations across the loins had sisdisappeared, and if ever* mau slept sound I i it was myself. I must say one thing in particular, and that is that Clements Tonicwas a grand strengthening medietas in my case, and for tbe nerves nothing could equal it. I lost all those troublesome chest pains besides, and, after living in misery so leng. you cannot wonder at my sincere admiration for Clements Tonic for bringicg mc ba»k to sound health again, and I have no hesitation in saying that my infirmities melted away before that remedy as they would have before no other medicine." '' May your experiences appear before tbe public ?" " They certainly ought to know of such a powerful remedy as Clements Tonic, so you can publish all my remarks in any way it suits you."
