Facts that Tel’. An Absoluts Truth. The Oa.se of* Mrs. L. VENABLES. (by a local reporter.) Nothing is presently pla lifer in a world that loves it* little inysteriew, and lik< u io keep the observer in a Mate o' ti suspense aboat a good m uiy things, than the fact that it is beginning to solve a great many mysteries that for long have remained *unrntangled. Perhaps the most important of the lot is thr one in reference to which Mrs. Louisa Venables, of No. 100 St. Asaph-strwt, recently spoke to our reporter when asked. “ Is it true that you effected a recovery from an old-standing complaint by employing a remedy that was recommended to you ? ” “It is perfectly correct,” answered Mrs. Venables ; “ami now I am glad to say thrt I know what is a sure cure for the aihm-nts I endured for so many years. It is a gre»nd thing to be able to tell ‘hose you see sutiering like you once did yourself wh t you know for a positive fact will do them good, and I think the people in thia w vid would be very uurboughtful and veiy unjust if the) did not livlp each other in this way as much as possible. The complaint I was suff-jring from is coihmon enough, goodnssK knows, and on that account, nr ucipalJy, I think thtH everybody in th** land should l>e brought to understand what a grand remedy they h»\ve in what is culled elements Tonic. When I commenced to treat royr.e f with that medicine I had been taking some medicine that my doctor had prescribed f- r me, and, not feeling any better for it, I thought I would d-- .a my friend adv sod me, and get some Clenmrita Tonic. ” “ Will you give me an idea of whut your sufferings were like, if you please ’ ” “Oh ’ they were simply terrible ’. I always got heart- urn and pains in the chest after eating, end an overloaded sensation in the stomach. It was very unpleasant to be subject to se much discomfort, after eating such a small amount of food, for you would hardly believe what a miserably poor appetite I had. I used to go for days and days without feeling really hungry, and sometimes the little I had eaten would all be thrown up again, and I used to feel so frightfully exhausted afterwards. Some days I felt too drowsy and weary to do my work in th* house, and off! so awfully?depressed, too as if I had no interest or share in anything that was t ra’.s-nj iug around me People used to say that drinking a cupful of hot water in tlm mor ui’g -.rn - a good thing for such trend l«s min . 1 tried that and all sorts of things; but I* • ight have saved mysfclf the trouble for all the benefit I got. The bitter taite in my mouth in the mornings was also disagreeable but the pains between my shoulders and the aches across my loins were hardships that were much more difficult to cope with. My head used to ache dreadfully, and my heart was frequently given to palpitations. Indeed, it. was palpitating mo badly on one occasion that I deemed it neces ary to apply a plaster, but such things only gave temporary relief. I was often attacked v-ith giddiness, and one of the worst things I had to put up with was restlessness at nights ; for, it di : not matter how tire I I was when I w- nr to bed, I was always a long time in getting to sleep. ” “ Were your adversities of au even nature, or were you better some days than others ?” “My afflictions used to fluctuate in sever ty for when I went to the doctor my sufferings a ore so great that I hurried off right in the middle of my work just as I was getting dinner ready, in fact. You see, I had not then learned the wonderful mystery respecting the influences of Clements Tonic. I could Lave saved myself all that suffering and all that trouble had I known it was such a reliable remedy for indigestion ; but, as it was, Clements tonic came in good time to my release. I can speak of its strengthening qualities with unstinted praise ; and for curing headaches, heartburn, palpitation, and the remaining afflictions to which I was a victim for some years, I hold that there is no mediejne the eq al of Clements Tonic. On all hands I have praised Clements Tonic for the per mane't cure it effected upon me, and I z know it has proved effectual in other cases. You can make known these facts by publishing them in any way you think best.” STATUTORY DECLARATION. J, Louisa Venablss, of 100 St. Assph-Ktreet.
