It is Suicide ?

Mark Twain tells the story ; that at the inquest held on the body of Buck Fanshaw — who during the delirium of a raging typhoid fever had taken arsenic, snot himself through the body, cut his throat, and jumped out of a four-storey window, breaking his neck— the jury, after due deliberation, sad and tearful, but with intelligence unblinded by its sorrow, brought in a verdict of " death by the visita ion of God."

Back undoubtedly committed suicide, and so does every me who neglects the first symptoms of approaching sickness and disease. Nature always gives ample notice of any disturbance of physical processes ; sometimes it is neuralgia, sometimes a sharp shooting pain in the abdomen or side, or a dull or throbbing headache ; no two persons get the same symptoms. What you have to do is to attack the first symptoms, for if consumption, dropsy, cancer or Bright's disease once gets a start you cannot stop its headlong course to the grave. These are facts there is no disputing, for all the medical skill in the world cannot do much for you when real organic disease has set in.

We emphatically recommend Clements' Tonic because we know by personal experience and by the evidence of influential and reliable people who have used it that it will do good and prevent disease. Clements' Tonic is a medicine that invigorates and strengthens the entire corporal organism ; it does not only affect certain members but strengthens the whole system, thus preventing the attacks oi disease.

" Clements' Toxic certainly deserves the popularity it has acquired, we have had prohf /Hii'itire, in cases (under our notice) in this neighbourhood, of its valuable properties. Mr T. Garrett, M.P., says, " I have taken Clements' Tonic with great advantage."

Mr John Plummer, (Fort-street Public School) says, "Mrs Plummer has frequently derived great benefit from the use of Clemfw.s' Toxic."

Mr 8, D, Wood (Verger of All Saints' Cathedral, Bathurst), writes, "That he found Clements Tonic a grand pick-me-up and it completely cured) him of low spirits, indigestion, giddiness and humming noises in the ears."

Mr G. Swan, Junee Junction, who suffered from debility, cardiac weakness and nervousness, following on typhoid, took Clements' Tonic and sayp, li That after taking C or 7 bottles his health was fully restored, and that he can now eat anything and do any reasonable amount of work, whereas before taking Clements' Tonic he could do none at all."

Clements' Toxic can be obtained from a'l medicine dealers or from F. M. CLEMENTS, Newtown, Sydney.
