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 scroe and five, and why that not one in every thousand lire to three score years P We kill ourselves. Many interesting particulars are found in tables of physiologists and writers on hygiene. The eminent physiologists, Haller and Button, 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 foots known of the naturally ordinary and extreme duration of life and the physical aspect of the problem : involves the contemplation of the groat natural phases of development of the species, i digestion, period of growth and length of life. , Mankind pays too little attention to the warning voice of nature, signs of appr mching calamity are unheeded, and disorganization of iho affected organ increases and after a time becomes insensible, then no pain is felt and the sufferer is deluded into the belief that he has shaken off the disease, nothing could be more erroneous or dangerous, for the complaint has only passed on one further slagtowards the end and nature ceases to send those warning aches and pains as they were unnoticed when sent, the debility and weak oe*s increases however and nervousness, loss n( appetite, and general languor comes on i and a cold is eaught in the kidneys, luogs or liver and another life is sacrificed to Bright’s disease, Consumption, or some other serious and fatal disease. Scoffers can talk as they like at the virtues claimed for Clements Tonic but even the most prejudiced mm know it is genuine and doss possess merits no other medicine ever did, as instanced in the followease. “ For the past four years I have been a great Batterer from severe pains in the back and left side, being at times quite unable to do any work or even walk about. I suffered iu this way until it became quite unbearabh and in February 1889, E consulted a physician who treated men {for seventeen months , and during that time I suffered the severest torture under his treatment and instead of improving continued to get worse, ho said at last, " I have done all I can and yon will aeveir be better.” This drove me to despair, and I went nnder another doctor's treatment for fonr months and took about 30 bottles of medicine, but with no result. I was giving np all hopes when I read of the wonderful cores affected by Clemente’ Tonic and on my husband's advice I tried it, and after the nse of only three bottles I was quite a different woman. 1 have taken fifteen bottles, and feel as well and strong as ever, and can del my work with ease and pleasure, whereat 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 suffered with Neuralgia for weeks at a time and could never get any relief but since taking Clements Tonic 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. Mrs S. B. Baker, Swan Street. Morpeth, N.B.W. Header .—ls it any wonder interested people should be jealous of Clemente’ Tonic when its patrons write snob spontaneous praise as that? yet there is noto mail bag comes out our way but what bring l ns similar letters. F. M. Clements’ 812 a’Beckett Street, Melbourne.
