A Subject for Thought.

It is tio simple matter to sta,te in term 3 at all precise what forces ire directly connected with the production of hale and j happy old age. More certainty is involved in the process than mere strength of constitution. Healthy surroundings, contentment and active, temperate and regular habits are most valuable aids. Hard work, so long .at least as it is riot carried beyond the limit rtee'essary to permit of the timely repair of worn tissues, is not only harmless but of a conducive circumstance. It is in fact, by living as far as possible a life in accordance with natural law that we may expect to reap the appropriate result in its prolongation. Great care should be taken to protect the System against the changes which disease makes therein ; coming misery calls its shadow before it' and intimates its approach by various signs, as a feeling of general weakness, neuralgic pains, nervous headaches and rising of sour wind from the stomach, backache and lumbago, failure of verility and gradual diminution of mental power and similar symptoms, all tend to show that general debility is increasing lv the patient's sysem. Such persons should take notice of the experience of Mrs C. Whittington, 11. Coventry Pace, South Melbourne; who for some years was afflicted with excessive nerve prostration, and who writes : —I have been suffering over four years with noises iri my head, caused by a fright a few days after 1 Coitriii'SiTie.nti JHirintr I <• whole of this time the least exci.tctiicilt itdu Ul make me very nervous, and it was witii gtetlt difficulty that I could, do my household work-, and have scarcely over had a proper night's rest, being cbnUnu&llfr disturbed with terrible dreams. I tried many remedies and was also under medical treatment, but nothing did any good until a friend recommended Clements Tonic. I took large bottle, and have much pleasure in testifying lo the good it lias done me ; the noises in my head are removed and I can I'fipt at night now, and am fully convinced that Clements Tonic does all that is cluimed for it, and I recommend it to all 1 borne in contact with, suffering as 1 have done." Clements Tonic is sold everywhere. OlHces and Laboratories, 212 A'Beckett-street, Melbourne and Sydney.
