BETTER THAN GOLD.
I Thoro ai'o but few tilings in this | world more highly appreciated or • overly sought after than gold. Why ? Not becauso it is an attractive colour; not because it weighs more than any other metals; not because it lengthens life. No. But it brings the necessaries, and if plentiful, llio luxuries of life. It gives a certain social standing to its possessor; it brings friends,-flattery, and smiles, and veneers ungeutlomnnly, or even otherwiseqnestionable actions, and smooths pathways otherwise rough. But when tlio dear wife, j or son, or daughter lies stricken with pain and feebleness; when disease racks the mind and body; when the dear one loses that natural buoyancy, sparkle, energy, and vitality; then the glitter of gold becomes almost repulsive; its uselessness brings a loathing. Mr VV. R, Uhysoii, of the firm of Lnwson and Grieve, the wellknown shooing forge, Camperduwn, Victoria, says: "While suffering from constantly recurring attacks of lumbago, which were littiu short of continuous,! tried all sorts of reincdies without effect, including injections of morphia, which only acted temporarily in allaying pain, but produced no permanent improvement, and my medical man was incapable of relieving me. 1 then commenced Warner's Safe Cure, and although it may seem strange 1 actually felt relief from tlio first dose J took, and when 1 had linished taking one bottle I was all right again. 1 feel much pleasure in stating that I attribute my recovery to this medicine alone." To him as to thousands of others, it has proven better than gold.
