Why is It ? -——— Why is it that death should come before the allotted age of * three score and ten/ and why so many millions of human beings never live to three soroe and five, and why that not one in every thousand live to three score years ? We kill ourselves. Many interesting particulars are found in tables of physiologists and writers on hygiene. Ibe eminent physiologists, Haller and Buffon, present interesting particulars on the subject of longevity. They treat it in two ways, historical and physical. The historical side of the recitation of all facts known of the naturally ordinary and extreme duration of life and tbe physical aspect of the problem involves the contemplation of the great natural phases of development of the species, digestion, period of growth and length of life. Mankind pays too little attention to the warning voice of nature, eigne of approaching calamity are unheeded, and disorganization of J i the affected organ increases and after a time I becomes insensible, then no pain is felt and I the sufferer is deluded into the belief that he j has shaken off tbe disease, nothing coold be more erroneous or dangerous, for the complaint has only passed on one further stage towards the end and nature ceases to send those warning aches and pains as they were unnoticed when sent, the debility and weak* I ness increases however and nervousness, loss i of appetite, and general languor comes.on and a cold is caught in the kidneys, lungs or liver and another life is sacrificed to Bright’s 1 disease, Consumption, or some other serious and fatal disease. Scoffers can talk as they like at the virtues claimed for Clements Tonic but even tbe most prejudiced men knew it is genuine and does possess merits no other medicine ever did, as instanced in the followcase. “ Bor the past four years I have been a great sufferer from severe pains in the back and left side, being at times quite unable to do any work or even walk about. I suffered in this way until it became quite unbearablei and in February 1889,1 consulted a physician who treated men {for seventeen months, and during that time I suffered the severest torture under bis treatment and instead of improving continued to get worse, he said at last, “ I have done all I can and you will never be better.” This drove me to despair, and I went under another doctor’s treatment for four months and took about 30 bottles of medicine, but with no result. I was giving up all hopes when I read of the wonderful cures affected by Clements’ Tonic and on my husband’s advice I tried it, and after the use of only three bottles I was quite a different woman. I have taken fifteen bottles, and feel as well and strong as ever, and can do my work with ease and pleasure, whereas it was a great trouble before using Clements’ Tonic. I can now also walk for miles without fatigue. Before taking this medicine I have often Buffered with Neuralgia for weeks at a time and could never get any relief bat since taking Clements Tonie I have never had an attack of it since, as a result of ’my experience I have much pleasure in recommending it to all afflicted.

Header :—le it any wonder interested people should be jealous of Clements’ Tonic when its patrons write snob spontaneous praise as that? yet (here is not a mail bag comes out our way hut what brings us similar letters.
