■ , - — : ■+— >' Ii is no simple matter to state in terms stall precise what forces are directly connected with the production of hale and happy old age. More certainly is involved in the 7 process than mere strength: of constitution. Healthy surroundings, contentment, and actire, temperate and regular habits .are most taluakle aids. Hard work; so long at least as it is not carried beyond the limit necessary to permit of the timely repair of worn tissues, is not only harmless but a conducive circumstance.

"Whittingtbn, 11 Coventry Place, South Melbourne, who for some years was afflicted with excessive nervous prostra* tion, and who writes: — "I have been suffenog over four years with noises in my bead, caused by a fright a few days after confinement. < During the whole of this time the least excitement would make me very nervous, and it was with great difficulty that I could do my household;work, and haye - scarcely ever had a proper night's rest, being continue ally disturbed with terrible dreams. I tried, many remedies and was also under medical treatment, but nothing did any good until a friend recommended Clements Tonic. I took a large bottle and have much pleasure in testifying to the good it has done me j the noises in my head are removed and I can rest at night now, and am tally convinced that Clements Tinie does all that is claimed for it. and I recommend it to all I come in contact with, suffering as 1 have done."
