PAST THEIR PRIME. v (By “Sympathy.”) There are vory few people who have reached a certain age who do not realise that, for them, tlio prime of life is past. Generally the change has been so gradual that it lias been moro or less unnoticed until one day one makes the discovery that lie or sho is being classed as "middle aged or old.” It is a shock to hear one's self described for the first time as “ Old Mr. or Mrs. So-and-So.” However, we all have to go through with it, and it is just ns well to take the gruel with a little cream and sugar in it, if possible. No definite ago can be fixed as that when a parson should naturally expect to loso vigour. The change comes to some much later than to otliors, and ran in most cases he delayed, almost indefinitely, if proper care of the health bo taken. The chief cause of ago making itself felt early is 'the failure in activity of the kidneys and liver. Unless the kidneys and liver continue to perform ably their task of ridding Lho blood of uric and biliary waste products, poisonous matter remains in the system which causes us to suffer from stiff joints, rheumatism, gout, neuralgia, backache, sciatica, indigestion, anosmia, blood disorders, biliousness, jaundice, gravel,', stone, bladder troubles, general debility, sick headache, and Bright’s disease. It is possible, of course, for young people to suffer from these disorders, but they 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 Safe Cure is so effective in cases of this nature. Warner’s Safe Cure is a specific cure for kidney and liver diseases, and acts simply by restoring the kidneys and liver to health and activity, when the uric and'biliary poisons are naturally expelled from the system and suffering ceases. In addition to the regular 5/- and 2/9 bottles of Warner’s Safe Cure, a concentrated form of the medicine is now issued at 2/6 per bottle. Warner’s Safe Cure (Concentrated) is not compounded with alcohol, and contains the same number of doses as the 5/- bottle of Warner’s Safe Cure. H. H. Warner and Co., Ltd., Australasian Branch.

A HANDBILL Oil "DODGER” is a very small article and a. very common one. Citizens receive them every day, and a good many of them, further, rarely look at them, but make pipe-liights of thorn at once. Why is this? The reason is easy to find. In nine cases out of ten the "dodger” is so badly printed and got up in such a rough manner that there is nothing about it to attract the eye. OUR WORK. IS STRIKING, A “dodger” issued rrom our office will get three times the attention bestowed on one from any other house because STRIKING TYPE, HIGH-CLASS PAPER, AND GOOD PRINTING. will compel the attention of all into whose hands the “dodger” comes. We do not carry oil Job Printing for fun, and you may not get anything from us for nothing; but vr« guarantee that when you pay our prices you are paying for good workmanship and material, and you can rest assured you are getting them.
