The True Protection. ! ' _____ ! Nowadays the fiscal policy is always a • prominent plank in the platform of every j politician, yet it is a wise policy on the | part of the consumers to place a tax on the : articles which they rlo not make but only ! consume? Suppose, for instance, the cus- j toms duty is 33 per cent, on imported i goods, the wages of the laborer in all grades of employment iv a country thus protected, i should be S3 per cent, higher than in a freetrade country, to make things equal— but, is it ever the case? True promotion, like charity, begins at home, and in these days when the air is laden with microbes, | bacteria and other germs of disease, it b ■- ! hoves us all to be on guard against the common enemy. Old age kills but few, disease slays its thousands and millions, and all because man md is so apathetic and careless about first signs of approaching sickness. Neuralg'a is cv.' of the most positive signs of tho approach of some physical affliction, and requires immediate attention before it has programed beyond human aid and fatal disease has got hold of some vital organ. J. Fi_ynn, Esq., Arawa, Christchurch, writes, It is with great pleasure and gratitude I take my seat to indite these few lines, in ordu' that I may give expression to the feelings of thankfulness for the benefit I have derived from the usa of Clements Tonic. I have been a. sufferer for the last eight, years, and in that time have tried a numher of physioiana, and at great expense I have secured the opinions of men who were considered great authorities, but with no result, for I continually got worse. However they might differ about the treatment of my case, they all agreed that they could do me no good, and stated that / was in the last stage of consumption, and fast coming to an end. On doctors' ad\ice 1 travelled all through the colonies, and consulted medical men as I travelled, but instead of improving got worse, and became destitute of means, and had to return to \\ est Australia, whence I started. This was five years ago, and at that time and ever since I have been completely prostrated and unable to do any sort of manual labor or in any way to earn a living, and I xous so weak and emaciated that J prayed and looked for the end from week to week. 1 have been in many hospitals, and when out of them have tried all sorts of patent medicines without avail. About two months ago I experienced a very severe turn, and seeing Clements Tonic advertised I decided to try it (not that I thought it would do mo any good, but I was so ill I must have something). I have used only two bottles, and can say truthfully tkat I am now stronger and better than at any time within the last six years, and intend to continue its use. Another man to v. horn I recommended Clements Tonic said to me, " I wish *to God L had known of such medicine ten years ago," so much good it had done him. You are at liberty to pub. liih this if of service.
