THE DEATH OF "IMPOSSIBILITY."

. _ Hereafter believe no man who tells you that such a thing is an ' impossibility.' The triumphs of latter day science have almost enabled us to lift a corner of the curtain that veils shadowland, and, if it be 'impossible' to lift it high enough for a full view, one of our scientists will somo duv invent a telescope with which we shall be able to see beyond illimitable horizons, to allow the eye to pass through space as if there were no such thingasdistance. Thb theory of to-day is the practice of to-morrow — the idle dreamer of May is forging and hammer ing h,is dream with hard, cold facts in June ; that which we think at morning we make at noon, that which it is possible for man to imagine it is probable, for him to do; in a word it is impossible that anything can be impossible. The • impossibility 'is the creation of ignorance — it is the excuse of the man who cannot understand, and wherever education cGmes there the dogma of impossibility dies. 'It is impossible,' said our fathers, more ignorant than their sons, because earlier in the world's history than are we, ' to harness the lightning — to float iron, to make iron wheels grip an ironroad — to command the sun — to be despots of the wind '■ — and to-day we attempt air-ships, we photograph colors, we drive locomotives 80 miles an hour, we flash a thought from meridian to meridian with more than a thought's speed, we collect the atoms of a thunderbolt in a carbon point, and produce the only light that can penetrate to the depths of our old time ignorance. Medicine triumphs over the knife — the surgeon-butcher abdicates to the physician — we solve, we do not destroy. Some medical men say even now that it is impossible to cure that terrible disease, Diabetes. H. H. Warner and Co. say that Warner's Safk Diabetes Cure is an absolute curative for diabetes, and, in the face of the facts of their many cures of this dis&ase, who will venture to contradict? In both forms of the disease, sugar diabetes and the insipid, the cures effected by Warner's Safe Diabetes Cure are legion. We give below, for the information of interested readers, excerpts of a letter sent H. H. Warner and Co. by Mr Simon Morrison, J.P., of Cawdor Villa, Doveton street, Ballarat (Vie). Under elate 14th January 1893, he says : — ' I have very great pleasure in testifying to the great benefit 1 have derived from, using Warner's Safe Diabetes Cure. In the I latter part of 1891, and the early part of 1892, I suffered severely from the disease known as Diabetes Milletus. I was reduced to extreme weakness, having lost 501 bs of my weight in about four months. I had an insatiable thirst, clryness in the throat and mouth, dimness of sight, and defectiveness in my memory. I tried the above named cure, and by the time I had taken four bottles .began to get much better, and am now, by God's blessing, completely cured of this terrible malady. I have no hesitation in recommending this most valuable and effective remedy to anyone who is afiicted with the said disease.'
