CAPITAL LETTERS.

(By " Typo.") TRe art of letter writing should be practised by every one. To read a letter in which the views, objects or opinions of the writer are clearly and concisely expressed is always a pleasure. We quote at length two letters which we were very glad to receive. From Mr. W. J. Miller, Bootmaker, 167 Jersey Street, Paddington, Sydney, N.S.W., 25th January,

" About a year ago I was afflicted with constant drowsiness and dizziness in the head. There were sharp darting pains in my shoulder blades and back. My eyesight grew dim and my tongue vas constantly covered with a heavy coat, feeling' hard and tough like leather. The pain in my head was so great that it seemed as though a heavy weight was pressing on the crown. After taking a number of medicines, pioprietary as well as those prescribed by doctors, I began to take Warner's Safe Cure, and, to my astonishment, I found that, when I had taken a few bottles, all symptoms of my complaint were banished. I can say that my health, which was completely broken, is restored, and I am well once more." From Mr. J. Graham, Victoria Street, Auckland, N.Z., 15th October, 1906.

" I had been suffering from bilious complaint for several years, which at last broke down my digestive system, causing great distress and violent vomiting spells after eating. I suffered feaifully from headaches weekly, with ir-creased violence. Some few months ago I was recommended to try Warner's Safe Cure. lam glad I followed the advice, for in a short time after I commenced to take the medicine my health began to improve, and gradually, but effectively, my sufferings were removed. I am grateful for the wonderful change effected." These two letters describe in k'n excellent manner some of the many symptims of a disordered liver and the curative effect of Warner's Safe Cure. They cannot fail to interest many others who may be suffering in a similar manner, and to let them know how they, too, may obtain relief. Warner's Safe Cure is a specific cure for kidney and liver disorders. By. restoring the kidneys and liver to health and activity, Warner's Safe Cure enables the system to expel all uric and biliary waste poisons, the retention of which is the cause of people suffering fiom Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, Backache, Sciatica, Indigestion, Ansemia, Blood Disorders, Biliousness, Jaundice, Gravel, Stone, Bladder Troubles, General Debility, Sick Headache and Bright's Disease. Warner's Safe Cure cures all these disorders speedily and permanently, simply because it is an aid to natural action. It restores vigour to the kidneys and the liver and Nature completes the work. # In addition to the regular 5/- and 2/9 bottles of Warner's Safe Core, 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 m.mber of doses as the 6/- bottle of Warner's Safe Cur*.

with all hia might, and a gang of men with crowbars went to rescue him. This they succeeded in doing, and also slaying the dangerous monster. These crocodiles are so ravenous that it is not possible even to keep dogs with safety, and parents livingnear the river are in constant dread of losing their children. One of the lions killed had also filled up the measure' of its iniquity ere it met its doom. The scene of its depredations was a native village some distance north of the falls. The native huts are very slender, being built mainly of reeds. In such a hut a woman was sitting when the lion pushed aside the door, walked in and seized her, carrying her away to its lair in the dense bush. Ther he had an ox. This was in ths inclosure with other tattle and donkeys. The lion, failing to get into the inclosure-, bo frightened the animals with his attempts that they rushed in a huddled, terrified mas 3 from end to end, and their weight against the palisading broke it down. They rushed out through the opening, which wag just what the lion wanted, for he had now nothing to do but take his choice. _ After the ox he selected a donkey on his next visit, and then a sheep, and finally another ox. At last the natives became panicstricken until some white men reassured them, telling them they would sit up all night for the lion and shoot him. The lion came and got away with, another ox, for the white men, unable to keep awake, had fallen asieep. However, they were able to track him.

It was important that, having promised to kill the lion, they should do so, for that is the secret of the white man's power Gver the native — never to break his word. So they set off to the thick bush half a. mile away, whither the lion's tracks led them. There they came upon him, and killed him with one bullet, that entered the right nostril. This was what big game hunters consider a good kill, as the bullet did not disfigure the lion or inTure his skin. Near by was the carcase of an ox, and a little further in the bush, in a sort of tunnel of impenetrable thorn, were the gnawed bones — the remains of soina of his former victims.

A. j'oung htppotamus, riding on. its mother's back when she was t,hot, was saved and oared for by one of tho men. These animals are very dangerous to oanoe men. for in returning to the surface to blow they often come up right under the canoe andupset it. Sometimes they give chase to canoes, and then the native paddiers do all they can to reach the bank, unless a white man with a rifle is with them. The baby was thriving well when la3t heard of. He escaped from his inclosure once, but came back eery hungry, as was evident from the ravenous way in which he applied himself to his food.— Little Folks.
