IS LIFE WORTH LIVING

(By "Phflo.'*) ; To almost everyone there occur times when the question whether life is worth living thrusts itself upon them, but there are, for- , ; tunately, wry few who come to a negative ; conclusion and decide to anticipate nature by hurrying " behind the veil." ■ To those in the possession of buoyant < health the question occurs but seldom, but ' . there are so many people who are never in ; thorough, health, and others who suffer from . pain and sickness, that to them— far ' larger class—the vital question is apt to in- ] , trade itself with persistency. It is remarkable bow many people suffer ' from pain and sickness which they could , readily be cured of if they were aware of the cause of their trouble. Of course there are diseases which cannot be cured, but such disorders as rheumatism, gout, neuralgia, lumbago, backache, sciatica, blood disorders, anaemia, indigestion, biliousness, jaundice, sick headache, general debility, gravel, stone and bladder troubles, arising, as they, do so frequently, from a diseased or inactive condition oi the kidneys and liver, are amenable to proper treatment. When the kidneys and liver are working actively and in harmony, uric and : biliary poisons are thrown ■ off from the system in a natural 1 manner, and, as it is the presence of these poisons in the blood which causes the suffering entailed by many of the complaints mentioned, the removal of the poisons means the consequent cessation of pain and suffering. ■,'" The kidneys of the average person filter and extract from the blood about three pints of urine every day. In this quantity of urine should be dissolved about an ounce of urea, ten or twelve grains in weight, of uric acid, and other animal and mineral matter varying from a third of an ounce to nearly an ounce. If the kidneys are working freely and healthily, all this solid matter leaves the body dissolved in the urine, but if, through weakness or disease, the kidneys are unable to do their work properly, a quantity of these urinary substances remains in the blood and flows through the veins contaminating "the whole system. Then we suffer from, some form of. uric poisoning, such as Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago, Backache, Sciatica; Persistent Headache, Neuralgia, Gravel, Stone, and Bladder Troubles. The liver is an automatic, chemical laboratory. In the liver various substances are actually made from the blood. Two or three pounds of bile are thus made by the liver every day. The liver takes sugar from the blood, converts it into another form, and stored it up so a* to' be able to again supply it to the blood, as the latter may require enrichment. The liver changes urio acid, which is insoluble, into urea which a com- ; pletely soluble, and the liver aiso deals with the blood corpuscles which have lived their life and are useful? no longer. ;! When the liver is inactive or diseased we suffer from • some form of biliary poisoning such as Indigestion, Biliousness, Anaemia, Jaundice, Sick Headache, General Debility, and Blood Disorders. So intimate is the relation between the work done, by the kidneys and that done by the liver, that where there is any failure on the part of the t kidneys the liver ia apt to become affected in sympathy, and vice versa. It was the realisation of the importance* of this close union of the labour of these vital organs which resulted in the discovery of the medicine now known throughout the world as Warner's Safe Cure. Certain investigators, knowing what a boon it would be to humanity if some medicine could be found which would act spfteifically on both the kidneys and liver devoted themselves to an exhaustive search far such a medium, and , their devotion was eventually rewarded by their success in compounding a medicine which possesses tbo required quality. Warner's Safe Cure exhibits a marvellous healing action'in ca&as of functional or chronic disease of the kidneys and liver, and restoring them, as, generally, it is able to do, to health and activity, it, of necessity, cures ' complaints due to the retention in the sys--1" tem of urinary and biliary poisons. A i vigorous action of the kidneys and liver naturally eliminates the poisons, and troubles due to the presence of the poisons ceaSe. Cures effected by Warner's Safe Cure are ' permanent simply because they are natural. Diseases, diagnosed as Bright's disease, have , often yielded to treatment by Warner's Safe Cure. Warner's Safe Cure is sold by chemists and storekeepers everywhere,, both in original (ss) bottles, and in the cheaper (2a 6d) j .non-alcoholio iorJov
