Mark Twain tells the story that, at the inquest held on the body of Buck Fansbaw—who during the delirium of a raging ty'phoid fever had taken arsenic, shot himself through the body, cut his throat, and jumped out of a four-story window, breaking his neck—the jury, after due deliberation, sad and tearful, but with intelligence unblinded by its sorrow, brought in a verdict of “ death by' the visit- —> of God.” Buck undoubtedly' committed ” “o does everyone who neglects suicide, ana .. -•* attproftching sickness tire first symptoms a. _ -« e j ves ample and disease. Nature alway „ w i nronotice of any disturbance of physical x cesses ; sometimes it is neuralgia, sometimes j
a sharp shooting pain in the abdomen or side, or a dull or throbbing headache ; iie two persons get the same symptoms. What you have to do is to attack the first symptom, for if consumption, dropsy, cancer, or Bright’s disease once gets a start, you cannot scop their headlong course to the grave. These are facts there is no disputing, for all the medical men in theiworldcannot.do much for'you when real organic disease has set in. We emphatically recommend Clements Tonic because we know by personal experience and by the evidence of influential and reliable people who have used it that it will do good and prevent disease. Clements Tonic is a medicine that invigorates and strengthens the entire corporal organism; it does not only affect certain members, hut strengthens the whole system, thus preventing the attacks of disease. The assertions of the manufacturers are borne out and proved by Mrs Ann Dickson, milk vendor, Minmi, N.S.W., who writes on February 10th, 1893 :—I have been a victim to dyspepsia for over three years. I had severe headaches, pains in the stomach, and also in the left side. No matter how light the food was of which I had partaken I was unable to digest it. I tried doctors, and also nearly every advertised cure, hut without relief. My attention was drawn to the wonderful cures performed by Clements Tonic. I tried it, with the most gratifying results. Before I had finished the first bottle I regained my appetite, and improved then daily. When I feel any symptom of the old complaint, I fly to Clements Tonic, which gives me instant relief. If this letter will benefit you in any way, you are at liberty to make what use you like of it.—l remain, yours sincerely, Mrs Ann Dickson, milk vendor, Minmi, N,S.W,
