THE HISTORY OF A GREAT HIT.

The following thrilling and interesting story regarding perhaps the greatest hit of medern times, we have reason to believe is true in •very|partieular. Seven years ago in one of the beautiful cities of the great State of New York, a powerful man, both mentally and physically, lay dying. Though less than forty years of Jage, he had aohieved a fortune by persistent and untiring labor in the fields of merchandise, and yet what availed it him now ? The best medioal skill seemed powerless, and the strong man was going to an untimely grave. Being a man of wonderful nerve and foroa of character, despite his bodily weikness, he lay day after day quietly thinking out—for his mind seem«d more alert than ever—a plan whereby a hit might be made, the eSeoi of whioh should be heard around the world. To think was to act. A oertain simple herb of whose powers Mr Warner was eognigsnt, was given a fajr and impartial trial, and what the combined skill of physicians failed to ac oompliih, this gift of nature did. Strength under its use slowly returned and in threa months time the man, siok unto death, was given back to his family and the world fully restored to health and strength. In gratitude for his deliver; from death, If r. Warner resolved to devote a portion of his fortune in spreading abroad the merits of the preparation which saved his life. He gave it Liname, and in 1879 in a modest way began making the tame, giving it away freely to all needing it. Irs fame quiokly spread abroad, I the demand increased to an extent unprecedented, and the gentleman found hinueli | the possessor of a Eminent he had not sougll [ in a commercial way. Find ing it f oroed upen ' him, and knowing that to do good was th< sum total of living, he put all hie great energi< e into it, and in less than Ave years the fame of Warner's Safe Cure was common talk iu all parts of the United States, Canada and England, And Mr Warner has not been niggardh wifb the wealth whighhas ogmetohim from a grateful people, liver foremost in good works, he has taken a step in advance, and combining education with pleasure has ereottd and endowed an astronomioal observatory, with the finest private telescope in the world, at a cost of £20,000. Appointed Lewi> gwift. Pq.D. F.R.A.B, director, and open? the observatory free to the ptybllo tiro clonings a week. He gives employment to over 300 men and women, and is a generous pay- ! master. He has also encouraged a lore for the fine arts by buying and putting on ex hibi'ionsome of the famous oil paintitgs of j the world, notably Cameron's " Niagara in Winter" reeently purobaisd at a cost of

£s2o'\ and which, we aro informed, will ere long be exhibited ia Australia.

Bufc it is of Mr Warner's recent aohiev-

to an alarming ex\,euu in <.i« uowmeo, he deoided to open a branch laboratory here, and bring help to the suffering and hope to the despairing. As a result of his decision the three-atoiev blue stone building at 147 Little Lonsdale Street west, Melbourne, has been teoured and fitted up with all the scientific appliances known to modern science for the successful manufacture of the Safe Eemedies, in their purity, everything necessary, even to a praotioal chemist, being imported. The medicines are now being put on the market as rapidly as possible, and we believe we are doing our readen a lervioe in calling attentio -> to them. As is well known, medical men as a rule will not prescribe proprietary medicines, yet such intrinsic merit doe's Warner's Safe Cure possess that it has for the past five yean daily been used by the profession with the most gratifying results in Bright's diseases of the kidneys, and other diseßser of the kidneys, liver and urinary organs. No less an authority than Bobert A. Gunn, M D., Dsan of the United States Medical College of the State of New York, came out with a oard in the publio press, and acknowledged over his own signature that he knew for a certainty that Warner's Sufe Cure possessed wonderful power over Bright's disease, and that he had personally known of ouiei. being effected by it* use, Another eminent authority, J. B. Henion, M D.. Eochester, N.Y., after being given up to die with Bright's disease, and who was so prejudiced and bigoted that he would not take Warner's Safe Cure because it war a proprietary medicine, although Tie had the premonitary death hicdoughs, was providentially saved by its use through the interoes si >ns of his wife and his pastor, the R?v. Israel Fojti-, D.D., at that time reotor of 'St. Paul's Bpisoopal Ohurob, who had been called in to minister to the physician in his supposed t>> be lret hours. Bev. DrFoote attested to"the truth of this statement in an article in the Living Ohuroh, & leading ohuroh organ of Chicago. The army of witnesses to the (ffioaoy of Warnor's Safe Cure is marvellous. No other proprietary medioine can boast of suoh a fol lowing of illustrious men and women : Bishop Wilson, of Ottawa j Bishop Wilmet, of Georgia j Dr Kendick, Professor of Greek in the Bocheiter University, and one of the translators of the revised New Testament; ex.Q-overnor Alvord j Seth Green, thr world's famous pisioulturiet; together with thousands of others, comprising bishops, reverends, surgeons, barristers, who have written autograph letters, expressing their gratitude for a purely vegetable prepara tion, made striotly on honor, and whioh will do all that is claimed for it. There was no known remedy for Diabetes until Warner's Safe Diabetes Cure was given to the publio. Now all is ohanged. Col. Tassia, U.S.A., stationed, at Fortress Monroe, says, "I was given up to die by the highest medioal authorities of Washington. After a thorough treatment of Warner's Safe Diabetes Cure, I have gained what I had completely given up—hope of mora years of usefulness." Warner's Safe Cure and Safe Diabetes Cure are put up in 18oz amber glass bottles, the largest on the market, acd despite the duty, retail here for 5s each. Warner's Safe Piile, made up from the formula of a British army surgeon in ladia, purely v«get*ble, sugar.coated, retail for la ljd per vial. Th« trade mark is a representation of an iron safe, whioh is on every genuine package. Look sharp for it. Take none without it. Ask your druggist for these Safe Remedies ; do not be put off with something he may reeommend as "just as good." If he will not order them for you, by addressing H H. Warner and Co., 147 Little Lonsdale-street West, enclosing price, the same will be sent you. • * We might go on and fill columns regarding the great and successful hit given all forms of kidney, liver, and urinary diseases by the potent Warner's Stfe Bemediefs, but time and space forbid. We can, only advise our readers to send to the laboratory (address just given in preceding paragraph) for a pamphlet, with a lithograph in four colors, of Niagara Falls, containing a vast amount, of interesting and reliable testimony regarding the wonderful ourative effects produced by skilful combination of simple herbs from nature's great laboratory.
