The True Protection.
Nowadays the focal policy is always a prominent plank in the platform of every politician, yet is it a wise policy on the part of the consumers to ptaee-a tax on -the articles which ttfey do-sot make but only consume P Suppose, for instance, the $ customs duty is 33 per cent, oa imported goods, the Wages' Of the laborer in all grades of Employment 'id" a country thus protected, should be 33 per cent, higher than in a freetrade country to make I things- eqiial^but; -iar'it ever the oasePj True protection, like' charity, begins at home, and in these days when; the air is laden with microbes, bacteria' and other germs of disease, it behoves* us all to be on guard against the common «nemy t old age kills but few, disease slays its thousands and millions, and all because man* kind is so apathetic and careless about first signs of approaching sickness. Keuralgia t is one of th? most positive i ' signs of the approach, of some physical affliction, and tequires immediate atten* tion, before it has progressed beyond human aid and fatal disease has got hold of some vital organ. 8. 0. Eeilly, Esq., writes under date June Ist, 1891, from Garner's Avenue, Marrickville, JS.S.W. : "I can with confidence bear testimony to the wonderful curative powers of Clements Tonic For years I have been periodically attacked and a great sufferer from neuralgia and general debility, and anyone who has ever being afflicted with such nervous misery can form an idea of what I have suffered. I had also chronic indigostion. general languid feelings and an utter dislike to exert myself. The neuralgia was so severe that I have paced the hall all night and the agony was so excruciating that I was almost out of my mind. I tried all so-called remedies, also galvanic treatment, which did no good. At last a friend recommended Clements Tonic, and I was so miserable and disheartened that I purchased a small bottle and after the second dose felt great relief. I continued its vie and am thankful to say that, after twenty-four hours the pain had disappeared, and I was free from the nervous terror. I discontinued Clements Tonic and have - taken fonr bottles ; all my langour is gone, I am free from indigestion, I can do a day's work with any maD, and eat like a horse ; and have great pleasure m recommending Clements Tonic to any one suffering from nervous complaints. —Yours truly; 8. C.lteilly."
