SAVED FROM MISERY.
-•■ Mrs Fanny Dent, wife of a gentleman employed m the Lampton colleries, kindly allows us to explain the following facts of her interesting case and wonderful recovery, which we gather from her correspondence, and which we shall be glad to allow anyone to pursue who wishes to do so. Mrs Dent has been m a sta c of extreme debility for twelve years, frequently quite unable to do any work, the lightest kind causing great fatigue, with severe pains m the limbs, back, and left pide. So severe was the pain that she would have to sit or lie down frequently. Walking exercise was very frying and she could only walk very slowly. ghe had long seen Clements Tonic advertised, but like many other people, her hus band was prejudiced against "patent medicines," but (now we use her own words) "I knew someone who had tried Clements Tonic, and I decided to get a bottle on the quiet and say nothing about it if it did me no good. The effect I thought something wonderful. I felt better Alter the first dose, and by the time I bad
talcen half a bottle I was a different •Avsnan. My husband, friends and neighbours soon noticed the change m me, and they conld not make it out. I had to tell the truth that it was Clements Tonic that was making me strong. I could not keep the secret, I was only too glad to give the credit to Clements Tonic. After finishing the bottle, work was no trouble to me, but rather a pleasure, and after doing a heavy day's washing I could go for a walk instead of having _to go to bed, as always happened before taking Clement's Tonic. One of my neighbours said to me last week, ' Why, Mrs Dent, you are doing wonders this week, how is it you are so strong now ? ' She knew I had done more that week than I had been able to do m 12 years before (she had known me all this time, for I am an old resident of this locality, having lived here for 15 years). I replied : " Yes, I feel a wonder to myself, so I'll tell you the secret ; I have been taking Clement'B Tonic, and I cannot tell you the benefit I have derived from it. You know what my sufferings have been, and now I have a genuine taste of good health, ' " Mrs Dent wrote us those particulars of her remarkable cure m March. She wisely, however, decided to continue the medicine to " clench the cure " as it were. Some time afterwards she wrote as follows :—•• Waratah Commonage, N.S.W.,— Dear Sir,— lt is with great pleasure that I pen these few lines. I have been as you know a great sufferer from weakness and debi ity for years. I was under several doctors, but they never did any good. I despaired of ever being better, but as I stated m my last letter I saw Clements Tonio advertised. I tried a bottle and its effects were something wonderful I felt better almost immediately, and was a new woman after finishing the first bottle. Before taking Clement's Tonic it was a great trouble even to do a little house- work, but afterwards my work was a pleasure, and my fiiends and neighbours were surprised at the change m me. I cannot say too much m praise of it, and can only gratefully describe my case and strongly advise all who suffer from weakness, backache, pain m the side, ringing noises m the ears, and shortness of breath to take Clements Tonic. I feel sure it will do them as much good as it has done me.— Your3 gratefully., Fanny Dent." We have great pleasure m thanking this lady for allowing us to publish this case. We constantly hear of similar ones which people object to have published through a false delicacy. We only want to publish them m the interests of suffering humanity. Surely it i 3 not wrong' for people to acknowledge the genuineness and reliability of an article, when they have proved it to possess the properties we claim for it.
