Rescued from Misery.

John E. Aubrey, Esq., Sofala, N.S.W., kindly furnishes tlie following testimony : — " In January, 1879 I was master of a pro visional school in the western district, and I married a delicate young lady, and was shortly afterwards appointed teacher under the Board of Education. Our first child was born in September 1880, after which my wife never scorned to regain her usual strength. In May, 1881, she was suddenly taken very ill ; the family doctor was sent for and was greatly puzzled ; be, however, prescribed and the patient partly : recovered. About twelve months later she was very much troubled with a painful throbbing movement in the abdomen, especially when lying down, loss of appetite, and what food was taken afforded no nourishment. Another doctor was called in, who sounded and prescribed, but to no purpose. We left the neighbourhood and went to Lithgow Valley, hoping to effect aia improvement, but without result. Another doctor did all he could and decided that the case was one of enlargement of the liver, and this proved to be the case, as t!*se side sometimes swelled so large as to prevent dressing ; so matters progressed and got from bad to worse. Numerous doctors continued to do but little good and that only temporary, but all agreed that the system was generally weak and wanted building up ; and the liver would somelimes swell and burst off button after button off her ulster while standing in a store. For the last two years the trouble has been complicated with a moat distressing rushing noise in the. head, so violent as to render it impossible to lie in bed at night, with violent attacks of windy colic, causing complete prostration, and excoriation of the throat. Eventually, after further suffering, I read of Clements Tonic and its wonderful effects, and sent for a bottle. The first dose was too strong for the debilitated stomach. I diluted it with water aud gradually increased it as the stomach could bear it. Mrs Aubrey has now taken three bottles and the effect is most marvellous ; the swelling has entirely disappeared, aud the waist is reduced by seven inches. The eyesight is renewed and strengthened, the appetite returned, the noise in the head diminished, and, to use my wife's own words, " Language utterly fails to describe the relief and benefit she has experienced by the use of only three bottles of Clements Tonic." I oonsider Clements Tonic the most palatable and effcotivo medicine I have ever used in either England, India, Africa, or Australia. JOHN E. AUBREY.
