The True Protection.

Nowadays the fiscal policy is always a prominent plank in the platform of every politician, yet is ifc a wise policy on the p<rtof the consumers to place a tax on the articles which 'hey do not make but ou'y consume ? Suppose, for instance, the customs duty is 33 per cen~. on imported goods, the wages of the laWe: in all grades of employment in a country thuß protected, should he 33 per cnut. higher than in a freetrade country, to make thine* equal — hut, is it ever the case ? & True projection, like chnri'y, logins at home, and in these days when the air is liflen with microbes, bacteria and other fterma of disease, it behoves us all to he Von our guard against the common enemy ; f ii'd age kills bat few, disease Blays itß thouaands.and mil ions, and all because ia *0 apathetic and careless about first signs of approaching sickness. Nenralgja is one of the most positive signs of t.he ; approach of some physical afflictioa, oml requires immediate attention, before it hns progressed beyond human aid and fatal <Heenße his got hold of some vital orsiar.' S. C. Reilly, E?q., writes, under date June Ist, 1891, from Garner's Avenue, Mirriakvil!e,N.S.W. : "lew with confitlftniie hear testimony to the wonderful cnrittive powers of Clements Tonio. For years I have been periodically attacked

and a great rafferer from neuralgia and general debility, and anyone who has ever been afflicted with eaoh nervoai misery o*n form an idea of what I have suffered. I h«d also chronic indigestion, general Jan. gaid 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 £' 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 Tonio, and I was so miserable and disheartened that I purchased a small boHle, »nd after the s n cond doae felt great relief. I continued its use and am thankful to say that after twentyfour hoars the pain had disappeared, and I was free from the nervous terror. I con* tinned Clements Tonio and have taken four bottle* ; all my langour is cone, lam free from indigestion, 1 can do a day's work with any man, and eat like a horse : and have great pleasure in recommending Clement ■ Tonic to any one suffering from nervous complaints.— Yours truly, S. C. Reilly." ___
