IS LIFE WORTH LIVING?

(By "Philo."} To almost everyone there occur times when the question whether life is worth living thrusts itself upon them, but there are, fortunately, very few who come to a negative conclusion anddecide to anticipate nature by hurrying "behind the veil." To those in the possession of buoyant health the question occurs but seldom, but there are so many people who are never in thorough health, and others who suffer from pain and sickness, that to them—the far larger class —the vital quest ion is apt to intrude itself with persistency. It is remarkable how many people suffer from pain and sickness whicji they could readily be cured of if they wore aware cf the cause of their trouble. Of ror.rse there are diseases which cannot be cured, but such dis orders as rheumatism, gout, neuralgia, lumbago, backache, sciatica, blood disordeis. anaemia, indigestion, biliousness. jaundice, sick hoadache, genera* debility, gravel, stone and bladder troubles, arising, as they do so frequently, from a diseased or inactive condition of the kidneys and liver, are amenable to proper treatment. When the kidneys and liver are working actively and in harmony, uric and biliary poisons are thrown off from the sys tem in a natural manner, and. as it is the presence of these poisons in the blood which causes the suffering entailed by-any of the complaints mentioned, the removal of the poisons means the consequent cessation of pain and suffering. The kidneys of tha average person filter and extract from the blond about

three pints of urine every day. In this quantity of urine should be dissolved about an ounce of urea, ten or twelve grains in weight of uric acid, and other animal and mineral matter varying from a third of an ounce to nearly an ounce. If the kidneys are working freely and healthily all this solid matter leaves the body dissolved in the urine, but if through weakness or disease the kidneys are unable to do their work properly, a quantity of these urinary substances remains in the blood and flows through the veins contaminating the whole system. Then we suffer from some form of uric poisoning, such as Rheumatism, Gout, Lumbago. Backacftfc. Sciatica, Persistent Headache. Neuralgia, Gravel, Stone, and Bladder Troubles. The liver • is an automatic chemical laboratory. In the liver various substances are actually made from the blood. Two or three pounds of bile are tints made bv the liver every day.

The liver takes sugar from the blood, converts it into another form, and stores it up so as to be able to again supply it to the blood, as the latter may require enrichment. The liver changes uric acid, which is insoluble.* into urea, which is completely soluble, and the liver also deals with the blood pornuscles which have lived then' life and are useful no longer. When the liver is inactive or diseased we suffer from® some form of biliary poisoning, such as Indigestion, Biliousness, Anaemia, Jaundice, Sick Headache, General Debility, and Blood Disorders. So intimate is the. relation between the work done by the kidneys and that done by the liver, that where there is any failure on tho part of the kidneys !he liver is apt to hecome. affected in

sympathy, and vice versa. It was tin realisation of the importance of this dose union of the labour of these vital

organs which resulted in the discovery of the medicine now known through- \ out the world as Warner's Safe Cure. Certain investigators, knowing what a boon it would he to humanity if somf medicine could be found which would act specifically cn both the kidneys and liver, devoted thernf.alves to an ex-

haustive search for such a medium, and their devotion was eventually rewarded by their success in compounding a medicine which possesses the required duality. Warner's Safe Cure exhibits a marvellous healing action in eases ol functional or chronic disci so of the kidneys and liver, and restoring them, ■is. generally, it is able to do. to health and activity, it. of necessit;.. cures com plaints due to the relent ion in tbf system of urinary anil biliary poisons. A vigorous action of, the kidneys _ and liver naturally eliminates the poisons and troubles due to the presence of the poisons cease. Cum effected by War tier's Safe Cure are permanent simpij because thev . are natural. Diseases diagnosed as" Bright's disease, have of ten yielded to treatment by Warner i Safe Cure. Warner's Safe Cure is sold by chein ists and storekeepers everywhere, botl in the original (ss) bottles and in tin cheaper (2s 6d) non-alcoholic (Concen v.ted) form.
