MR GLADSTONE AS A DARING DINER OUT.

The London Court Journal says ;—“Mr Gladstone dines out with a regularity aud daring that could not be excelled by a man of half his years. One who meets him often at these gastronomic tournaments says that Mr G;s participation in their enjoyments is by no means perfunctory. Some men past GO still dining out enjoy themselves under severe restrictions, daintily picking their way through the menu. Mr G., past 80, is apparently under no such restrictions. He 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 a volumn of interest, bio graphical, autobiograhical, 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 game ; the slightest over indulgence in eating or drinking is sufficient with some people to upset their liver and cause bilious attacks ; these eventually lead to serious disease and make the sufferer’s life one continual misery. Timely use of Clements Tonic, with an occasional dose of Dr Fletcher’s Pills will always cure the most serious cases, as shown by the proofs vouchsafed by Miss Lucy Lammond, New Plymouth, who writes : After many years of suffering, aud travelling all over the world in search of good health, it gives me great pleasure to state that Clements Tonic has done me more good than all the doctors, and all the baths, spas and masseurs I have known. My life has been one round of misery for the past seven years, owing (so the doctors said) to liver complaint. My head always ached, my limbs ached; I was always tired and languid, aud I felt more tired in a mornhig than when 1 went to bed. I had sleepless and restless nights, and could get no relief. Three moißbs back I came to New Zealand, and in my travels frequently heard and read of Clements Tonic, and mother advised mo to try two or three bottles. I am pleased to say that it has done wonders, I never have headaches now, and I have only taken three bottles, but I feel a wonderful deal stronger and better, and you have my heartfelt gratitude for your remedy.
