MYSTERIOUS.

“ I fear no evil that I oen see ! ’ exclaimed Napoleon, and bis acts proved the truth of his philosophy. He could f»ce danger in every form; but the sunken road of Waterloo was an umeen foe, greater than the armies around him. The same, principle seems true with most people. We fear the unseen ; we dread the unknown ; we shrink frttn that which possesses the power to harm, that which is liable to break at any moment. A volcano is picturesque ; but men dc not build their homes upon its sides. In the midst of so much mystery and so many unseen dangers, we naturally feel a sense of awe. We wonder if some terrible calamity may not be just beneath the surface of what is apparently bright and serene. We wonder if some small portion of the human machinery should get out of order what the result would be ; and we fear disaster from powers we cannot comprehend. It is natural we should do so 1 It is reasonable we should wonder what would become of us if the delicate mechanism of the brain should get broken. It is natural we should ask what the result would bo if the million tissues of the lungs liver or kidneys should become disordered] fJL slight excess, a careless attention to the details of health apparently does no harm, but it none the less undermines the life. It is a draft upon vitality which must be honoured in the future. The trite saying that such acts “drive nails in one’s coffin” is as true as it is old.

But our own neglect is by no means all the unseen injuries that come to the human system. There are a thousand evil influences all around us at war with our lives. They are inhaled into the lungs ar d poison the blood ; they are absorbed through the skin and foster disease ; they are devoured with the food and corrode the most important organs of the body ; they are transmitted by contact with vegetables and minerals as well as mankind. Good health is a thing to bo acquired ; it will not come of its own accord. The man or woman who possesses the power to counteract all these evil influences and tendencies has obtained a secret of untold value. The constant strain and exertions above referred to, gradually weaken some of the most important organs of the body, and invite them to welcome the coming of broken health. The lungs, heart, liver and kidneys can very easily become weakened ; and how 1 By these very abuses and strains that are constantly brought to bear upon t h em. It is necessary to guard thece organs and preserve their proper tone at all times. A prominent gentleman felt unusually tired one day, but supposing it to be caused by over-exertion he gave it little attention. The next day he was not so languid, but his bend pained him. This he attributed to indigestion, and took no further notice of it.' Matters went along in this way for several weeks, the headaches and languor increasing, accompanied occasionally by certain dull pains in various parti of the body. Ha was not wholly insensible t# these troubles-; but being closely occupied, he heedlessly overlooked them. There finally came an intense pain in the •mail of the back; hii ankles bicami swollen to twice their natural siie, most violent nausea took possession of him, and life seemed one intense pain. A physician wag called, who pronounced it Bright’s disease of the kidneys, which he was able to relieve but could not cure.

Now, had any one warned this gentleman that the symptoms that bad troubled him so long arose from the kidneys, he would have attended to them at once ; but he did not hww it ; and many men and women to-day, in every pa ¥ t of Australia, are suffering, substantially, as did tin's gentleman, and from the same cause ; and it is high time they should know what it means. It means present discomfort, future unhappiness and premature death, unless attended to promptly and treated rightly. The only discovery which has ever been made in the scientific or medical worlds that is a certain remedy for all such troubles, is Warner’s Safe Cure. Made from a tropical leaf whose properties, like Peruvian bark, are known and invalauble, it acts at once and naturally upon the organs which produce these distressing troubles, carrying health to the entire system and banishing pain. . While the most serious evils which can afflict man or womankind are those which arise from disordered kidneys, they are diseases which can be controlled if taken in time. The trouble is, that they are “ unseen evils,” and the primary danger arises from the fact that the symptoms they manifest are not recognised, but are attributable to some minor disorder, which, by being considered slight, is permitted to fasten itself upon the system. That one-half of the physical disorders arise from imperfect kidneys is a new but settled truth : and that these disorders might be prevented by using Warner's Safe Cure is equally true- Thousands of people, including prominent physicians, scientists and divines, who have known of its wonderfnl powers, indorse and recommend it. It acts upon both liver and kidneys in « direct and certain manner, and invariably relieves and strengthens both. It puts them in a healthy condition, when, otherwise, they would become inflamed. It gives a pleasing tonic to the entire system, and harmon’aes all the parts. Chemists throughout the world sell it ; aqd the opportunity for thus obtaining its benefits are brought near to every one. It will solve the mystery of good health, and keep back the day en which comss “ the great mystery.”
