He says : Dear sir,—Kindly send me two more bottles of Clements' Tonic and permit me to express my thanks and gratitude t tli9 results obtained by taking two large bpttles,. £ had a great amount of business worry to contend against, which, altogether with the long hours 1 had stuck to it, completely undermined my constitution, and made me feel very tired, weak and ill, my nerves' being quite shattered. I was so nervous that the accidental slamming of a door would cause me tq start violently, my heart would beat'very rapidly, and f would break out in a profuse perspiration, afterwards haying a sensation of extreme weakness, lasting for -<>me hours; my sleep at night was disturbed ; l w-Jfe H? "»tiw. woming with I headache and aching limbs, iui ™} te unieireshed, I }i»d no appetite, no strength, and no inclination to work, and was completely run out. I was persuaded by your advertisement to try Clements' Tonic, and am a different man ever since. It gave me new health and strength, increased my appetite, and made me relish my food ; I increased in flesh, I lost all nervous feelings, and now feel stronger than ever, and am glad to bear testimony to the value of your wonderful remedy,*'
