MR GLADSTONE AS A DARING DINER OUT.

The London Court Journal says : “Mr Gladstone dines out with a regularity and daring that could not be excelled by a man of half his years. One who meets him often at these gastronomic tournaments says th»t Mr G.’s participation in their enjoyments is by no perfunctory. Some men past 00 still dining out enjoy themselves under severe restrictions, daintily picking their way through the menu. Mr G,, past 80, is apunder no such restrictions. Ho eats what comes, generally right through the menu, and can take his glass of port after his libation of champagne, a test from which many an ardent diner-out would shrink. His mental activity is on a par with his physical vigour. His conversation is a never flagging flood, brimful of interest. If it were only possible to reproduce a verbatim report of his conversation at a dinner-party, where the personal surroundings are sufficiently interesting to excite him to talk, there would be produced a volume of interest, biographical, autobiographical, and historical. His memory is marvellous, and his power of graphically recalling an incident is the admiration of even the gentlemen behind the chairs.” Mr Gladstone is to be congratulated on possessing a perfect liver, not all men can say the same; the slightest over indulgence in eating or drinking is sufficient with some people to upset the liver and cause bilious attacks ; those eventually lead to ■serious disease and make the sufferer’s life one continual misery. Timely use of Clementß Tonic with an occasional dose 9 t Dr Fletcher’s Rills will always cure

the most serious cases, as shewn by the proofs vouchsafed by Mr W. Kelly, Albury, N.S.W., who says: “ For nearly twelve months I have been subjected to such a most distressing disease, that I thought my constitution was breaking up. I had most acute pains in my chest, and my liver was so enlarged that I could not lie on my right side, there were also sharp pains around the kidneys combined with severe headaches, simply unbearable, causing great physical weakness. I was treated by doctors, but only experienced temporary relief from my complicated disorders. When my condition was almost critical I was persuaded to try Clements Tonic, which I look with Dr Fletcher’s Pills, and after the use of the first bottle of Clements Tonic my pains vanished like magic. I used in all three bottles of Clements Tonic and two boxes of Fletcher’s Pills, and the swelling of my liver was removed. I have gained greatly in weight and my chest find lungs are stronger than ever. I am well known as an old resident, and my recovery has excited much interest here.
