They will be glad then ■ ut) learn that he is recovering his '■ ~ health, which was so terribly shattered from the effects of A railway accident aonjo time ago. He owes his most recent resuscitation to the use of Warner's safo euro, of which he writes—"Feeling seriously unwell, with great ■|A. weakness, and waking as tired in the 7 morning as I felt when I went to bed the night before, I wua advised by a friend to try Warner's safo cure. After some persuasion I did so. A few doses gave , me gi eat pain in the region of the kidneys, ; • speedily followed by a sensation of great , relief and ease, I used two bottles, with • the happiest results, and I now find my- , self restored to health."

It , is unimpeachable, and we are proud to | set it before tho public as one more not- , able instance of the efficacy of that which , needs but to be known to be commended. ;
