Mrs M. L. Morgan, Clifton, Aiatapu, Auckland, N.Z., under date 23rd January 1892, writes :— Dear Sir— Some two years ago, having previously enjoyed fairly good health, I was taken seriously ill, and found it yery difficult to get relief. At first I treated myself, thinking thai I should soon be well again \ but my illness gre^r upon me and I was completely prostrated and unable to do anything. I sought medical advice from our local doctor, aud he prescribed for me. My ailment was described as black jaundice and gallstones, and at times I suffered muck pain. Our doctor's treatment did not do me much good, as the attacks were frequeut and very severe. Some months passed, and I felt that I was becoming hopelessly ill. My friends were shocked at my sallow and changed appearance, and more than one has told me since that they never expected to see me well again. I went to Auckland for change of air and scene, and to seek further medical advice. I got it, and for a time seemed to improve, the change evidently doing me good ; but it was not tonic enough, for after a week or so I was again laid up. All the medical advice I got in Auckland seemed unavailing, and I returned home with very little to hope for. Here I suffered several attacks, and had to lay up re* peatedly. My husband had a very poor opinion of patent medicines, but seeing Clements Tonic advertised as of such wenderful effect in serious cases, and being quite at a loss to suggest any other untried remedy, he brought me home a bottle, and we determined to tvy it. At the same time we resolved to say nothing of the medicine we were using until fully satisfied of its effects. The first dose did me good, and I improved rapidly. Friends who would not have been surprised to hear of m 7 death were really astonished at my rapid recovery. I was soon satisfied as to the value of Clements Tonic, and gladly recommended it to others, and so did my husband. The store keeper spoke to him one day, and asked him if he had been recommending Clements Tonic, ror he wjis almost sold out, and had only one bottle left. 'Give it to me,' said my husband ; 'I wouldn't be without it for any thing.' By the time I had taken one bottle I was able to get about my work again. Friends thought the im« provement only temporary, and expected to t-e me prostrated again, but I am thankful to say that such has not been the case. Every dose did its work, and after a fortnight I only took one dose a day, in the early morning. I have used only three butties, and have the fuurtii in tlie house. I do not taku il reguterlj\ hut fly lo ii on liicieas: syin;> torn of anything be.ng wron^. and I \\;'.w many ti«K j s proved if. to be a good ] ■:■ ventive of returning sickness. It is iim-.\ eight or nine months since I recovem! and Clements Tonic has kept nje in ijo- >ci health all through. I can again get v\\ with my house and dairy work wi'li ivm fort and pleasure. I am pleased I.- i:. able to recommend Clements ' onic, few i have found it a true friend, and am convinced that it will give health to uianv now suffering if they will only give .t a trial. — I am, Sir, yours gratefully, M. i.. Morgan.
