PAST THEIR PRIME.

{By " Sympathy."] There are very few people who have readied a certain age who do not realise that, for : them, the prim© of life is past Generally the change has been so gradual that it has ~ been more or less unnoticed until one flay one makes the discovery that ho or she is being classed as " middle-aged or old." II ; ; , is a shock to hear one's self described foi -\ the first time as "Old Mr. or Mrs. So-and-/ So." However, we have all to go; through with it, and it is just as well to take th« gruel with a little cream and sugar in it, ■ if possible. No definite ago can bo fixed as that when > a person should naturally expect to los« - ■',: vigour. The change comes to some much , later than to others, and can in mest cases , be delayed almost indefinitely, if proper • care of the health be taken. The chief cause of age making itself felt early is the failure in activity of the kidneys and liver. Unless the kidneys and liver continue tfl perform ably their task of ridding the blow of urio and biiiarj waste products, poison ous matter remains in tho stem wind causes us to suffer from stiff joints, _ rheumatism, gout, neuralgia, backache, sciatica, indigestion, antemia, blood disorders, r 'biliousness, Jaundice, gravel, ston«. bladder troubles, ger.eral debility, sick headache, and Bright's disease. It» is possible, of " , course, for young people to suffer from these disorders, buttnoy aro far more prevalent as we get on in years. If, however, proper : attention is paid -to the health and vigour of the kidneys and liver, it is not compulsory upon any of us to suffer from the ' ; disorders named. This is the reason that treatment by Warner's 3&,fe CJu.-e is so . effoctivo in cases of this nature. Warner's , Safe Cure is a specific cure for kidney and " '. liver diseases, and acts simply by restoring ; tho kidneys and liver to health and activity. ,"." when the uric and biliary poisons are natu rally expelled from the system and sufferinj ceases. In addition to the regular 5a and 2s 9< bottles of Warner's Safe Cure, a -.-oncentrat ed form of the medicine is now issued aJ ■', 2s 6d per bottle. Warner's Safe Cur< ';, (Concentrated) is not compounded with al i,| oohol, and contains the same number Oi doses as the 5s bottle of Warner's Saf« 'J Cure. H. H.

The taste for reading and book-buying i* not, as some people say, limited to novels...-j The return of the public libraries make it . clear that the ordinary reader is, in an = increasing degree, looking for the best in m serious" literature—biography, travel, history, ; and so on. Of such books oven well-to-do folk usually have but a sparse representation in their libraries. Two re*- . sons suggest an explanation of this, the I considerable prices at which these works are issued, and the amount of space which t their size demands. The broad result ha« been that very interesting writings often .■ do not come into touch with the mass oi readers until they have gon« out of oopj«. > Pght. • "■■,:-:.-"■■-',•.■:..-:..■.. .'■■■■: ' ' ''^' :^M&M :■■■ ■:■..■■■■:■-■: ■-, <-■* .' >--^z-:^<m&sM
