Mr. Gladstone as a Daring Diner Out.

~ » The London Court Journal saya :— " Mr Gladstone dines out witb a regularity aud daring that could not be excelled by a man of half his years. One who meets him often ftt these gastromatic tournament says that Mr G.s participation in their enjoyments is by no means perfunctory. Some men past 60, still dining out, enjoy themselves under severe restrictions, daintily picking their way through the menu. Mr G. past 80, is apparently under no such restrictions. He eats what comes, generally right through the menu, and oan take his glass of port after his libation of champagne, a test from which many an ardent diner out would shrink. His mental activity is on a par with his pbyßioial vigour. His conversation is a never flagging flood, brimful of " interest. If it were only possible to re-pro-duce a verbatim report of bis conversation ftt a dinner-party, where the personal surroundings are sufficiently interestiag to excite him to talk, there would be produced a^ volume of interest, biographical, auto, biographical, and historical. His memor. fi ra_nrcllou», and his power oi graphically

recalling an incident is the admiration of even the gentlemen behind the chairs." Mr Gladstone is to be congratulated on possessing a perfect liver, not all men can say the same ; the slightest over indulgence in eating or drinking, is sufficient with some people to upset th« liver and cause billious attacks ; these eventually lead to serious disease and make the sufferer's life one continual misery. Timely use of Clement's Tonic with an occasional dose of Dr Fletcher's Pills will always cure the most serious cases as shown by the proofs you chafed by Mr W. Kelly, Albury, N.S.W. who says : " For nearly twelve months I have been subjected to Such a most distressing disease, that I thought my constitution wns breaking up. I had most acute pains in my chest, and my liver was so enlarged that I could not lie on my right sido, there were also Bharp pains around the kidneys combined with severe headaches simply unbearable, causing great physical weakness. I was treated by doctors but only experienced temporary relief from my complicated disorders. When my condition was most critical I was persuaded to try Clements Tonic, which I took with Dr. Fletcher's Pills, and after the uso of the first bottle of Clements Tonic my pains vanished like magic. I used in all three bottles of Clements Tonic and twc boxes of Fletcher's Pills, and the swelling of my liver was removed. I have gained greatly in weight and my chest and lungs are stronger than ever. I ara well-known as an old resident and my recovery has excited much interest here.
