BANE AND ANTIDOTE.

To every bane there is an antidote. The triumphs of latter-day science have proved this to be axiomatic, and merely a phase of nature's faultless preservation of equilibrium. Nature has provided the virulent poison of the snake, and at the aauie time furnished the vegetable juice t'i' fender the virus innocuous. In the case of human disease the discovery of the bane has been the work of decades, , sometimes centuries,. and the discovery of the antidote' in many instances is still hidden 1 ih'tne*woihb'of the future. A curative for cancer" is not yet to hand, \ although it is possible that the preventive ia contained in maintainirig the soundness of ttieliver and kidneys, which are the most important functional organs of the body. To return to the heading of this paper, t-ke the bane of Bright's disease of the k.dneys. Its discovery is of comparatively, recent, date. For, centuries _ the faculty had been dealing with the poison of uric acid, totally unaware of tte death-dealing influence it had in v trioiis forma in different individuals, to such an extent indeed, that it haß been •aid that ninety per cent, of the diseases i i the human system are traceable to fcdiiey poison. In the old times some t rins of disease were attributed either t<> urovideutial dispensation, of the m. ichiuations of a local witch, who wa* c refully burned for ,>her alleged c iininality. The universal panacea for »l no.it every compLiiufc was letting out o blood (or pumping it in) ; allailments, from dyspepsia to. neuralgia being treated a ike. Further down a little scientific combined with some common Btnse brought to the rescue the commoir laech which came to be known as ««the ■ ductor." : Then the .introduction and raign of Mineral Medicaments was e itered upon. But by far the greatest aid most important, event to the whole hiWau rifce has been the discovery of ti'at'infaliible' antidote to all kidney and liver poison—Warner's safe cure. It is a'ill proving itself an unquestionable siccees, and is undoubtedly the medicine for thy times." Whether a man first feeh inly little poorly, the cause of which he , ciuhot trace,-of is suffering ; from the dire debility succeeding an attack of ' iunuenza, his wisest course will be to fly idr relief to Warner's safe cure, which is the Antidote to 90 per cent, of the diseases affecting the human frame, hence it is recognised and admitted * iiiftiiehce and success.
