Damaged Men.
. ..-'■•-». + . I!f6A1 !f6A ban see any day, in the streets of &ny city, men who looked damaged— men, too, of good original material, who started ont in life with generous aspirations. Once . it was said that they were bright promising I lada ; once they looked happily into the faces of mothers whose daily breath was a prayer for their purity and peace. Going ; toj,he bad! the spell of evil companionship ; the willingness to hold and use I money not honestly gained ; the stealthy seductive, pl&usable advance of the appeUtft for strong drink ; the treacherous fascination of the gambling table; the gradual loss of interest in business and in things which build a man up ; the rapid weakening of the whole body ; a depletion of the general strength and vitality ; the struggle for existence an.l the worry and turmoil of life breaks up the vital strength and hurries many a man into an untimely grave. First symptoms are numerous, headaches, nervousness, failure of appetite and indigestion, and various other signs. All are forerunners of some impending serious physical complication. Recourse had to a rational medicament such as Clements Tonic always removes, all signs of disease, restores the action of every impaired organ, increases the appetite and aids digestion, thus ensuring a healthy organism and granting the afflicted a new lease of life. " For several years I have been steadily declining in health, suffering from nervous prostration, dizziness and unnatural expectoration, flushed face after meals, sleepless nights and headache, as if a great weight was over my head. The action of the kidneys was defective, and I often suffered severely from the swelling of th legs, a ciroumstance from whi>Ji very serious consequences were apprehended. I retired recently fr m tha proprietorship of the i lbion Hotel, Bouvke street, Melbourne, owing to my ill-health, and hoped that complete rest would effect a material chango for the better, and that I would be able to spend my declining years with more comfort ; bnt niy health was not benefitted in the least until Clements Tonic was brought under my notice. A short oourse so improved my condition that it suppressed all nervousness, subdued all my pain, greatly increased the flow of urine ; and I consider* Clements Tonio " a remedy without a rival." Geobse Stbadman, Melbourne.
