"THE INFLUENZA."
The influenza is rag n? again this year with unprecedented deadlinees. The paralising influences of this terrible malady have assumed the til irmins; dimensions of a plague. The distemper is of powerfully destructive character, and shatters victims with fearful suddenness. The seventy of the visitation eclips all previous attacks. The medicnl fnculty fails to account for the outbreak, and is powerless to control ila spread. Doctors, nurses, and hospitals are doing everything passible for sufferers, but are overall"! Ned by the multitude crying bitterly i;>r relief. A dispatch from one town states that 300 people died m one day, this was the daily average, and. tho streets were crowded with vehicles carrying the dead to their resting places ; and the sad vacancy of death depressed every household. Such trying times as these demand immediate attention. The doctors fail, ond tlie rauny advertised cough and colu cures a:o only sedative which interfere with the proper secretions jof tho respiratory tract. Recourse must bo hurt to a genuine stimulating restorative vihic!>, whilst curing his grippe, will also streii.n" lien and support, tho patient, and no ar i le the world has so far seen can compii a to Clements Tonic for these offorLs. During the great outbreak of influenza m Sydney m 1890, over 50,000 bottles of Clements Tonic were consnmed and its praises were sung m every quarter as the diseuse was completely stamped out by the use of this remedy Jn lour wneks. S"ch f nets as this prove beyond the doubt of the most unbelieving scepiic me vmue of Clemen ih .Tonic for such diseases • Mrs. ftl.'Kellett, Parratuatta, N. S. W., writes :-r-f Sir, — Four years ago i caught a Bevere cold which settled m my head and chest, and caused an incessant cough aud copious diacharge.of, phlegm ; this brought on great weakness and debility. After considerable attention and doctors' treatment, the cough was relieved; and finally cured, but the debiity re-? mained and seemed to defy the skill of the medical men and the power of mcdi : ' cine. I hud no appetite, uud could scarcely eat a particle of tood, and was alirost reduced to a skeleton, having entirely wasted away. I had taken pints of cotiliver oil, malt extracts, and other medicines without relief, when I was recommended to take Clements Tonic. I procured a bottle, and am thankful to say thajt I immediately began to improve : I could eat better, and relish and digest whut I did eat. I gained flesh every day and my strengih rapidly returned, and aft«r six week's treatment with ' Clements Tonic, 1 felt » new woman altogether. I took Clements Tonio six months agjo, and have never hud any sickness since, and am only too glud to add my name to your list of grateful sufferers,' Remember you must ft 1 jt the genuine 'Clements* Tonic, sold by chetnistf, grocers un 1 storekeepers, avery whore.
