A STRANGE SUBSTITUTE. A poor .woman, whose husband was very ill, was instructed by the doctor to give the patient champagne and oysters every three hours. On his next visit, the doctor asked if his advice had been followed, when the woman slated that she had not been able to find money for champagne and oysters, but she had given her husband plenty of ginger beer and cockles 1 The poverty of the woman makes this story pathetic, but how many people there are who have not the same excuse, who put up with substitutes, either because they are cheap or from some other inadequate reason. For instance, sufferers from rheumatism, gout, lumbago, neuralgia, sciatica, backache, blood disorders, anaemia, indigestion, biliousness, jaundice, sick-hoa-dache. general debility, gravel, stone and bladder troubles—although they may be well aware that their suffering is due to the fact that their kidneys and liver are acting inefficiently and failing to remove from the system the uric and biliary poisons which cause the pain—will persist in trying first one thing and then another, whilst it would be so easy for them to procure the invaluable aid of Warner’s Safe Cure, the great kidney and liver pecilie. Warner’s Safe Cure exercises a stimulating and healing influence upon the kidneys and liver, thus facilitating the expulsion from „the body, through the natural channels, of the uric and ciliary poisons which are doing the mischief. Health then results, as a matter of course. Warner’s Safe Cure is sold by chemists and storekeepers everywhere, both in the original form and in the cheaper “Concentrated” nofi-alcoholic form. Do not be fobbed off with substitutes. When you require champagne and oysters you do not want to be given ginger beer and cockles. CAUSE OF IMAGINARY VISIONS. Those dark spots which you see in lull light and which change to varying forms with the motion of the eye—those sparks and scintillations —that appearance of network which comes before the eyes, these are all due not to defective eyesight, but to derangement of the stomach, liver or other digestive organs. Baxter’s Compound Quinine Pills impart the necessary strength to the digestive organs, and the sight becomes clear and steady again. Price 1/6 a box at chemists or post free from J. Baxter, Chemist.
