The Cause Discovered.

Most of the readers whose eyes scan
these pages have suffered from headache,
lassitude, nausea or pains in the back f;
but we doubt if they knew what tho cause
was. In nine cases out of ten it vas some
trouble with the kidneys or liver. This is
the result which Warmers Safe Kidney
and Live Cure has accomplished. The
above named troubles are caused by dis
ordered kidneys and liver. and the remedy
which cures the cause banishes the pains
which arise from it.

Catarrhal
POI S ON

Wei De Meyers Treatise ON Catarrh,
sIpains the following important facts:
l. That Catarrhal iCo1ds become pol
suous infection, at first local, and finally
constitutional.
,. That. being Constitutional. the infection is
beyond the reach of mere local remedies
3, That Impurities in the nostrils, are
lecesssrily swallowed into the stomach and
inhaled into the lungs, thus poisoning the
Digestive, Respiratory and Genito-urinary organs.
4 That Catarrhal virus follows the mu-
toas membrane and Games Deafness. Dyspepsia,
Chronie Diarrhea, Bronchitis, Leucorrhea
snt Consumption,
s. That Smokes, Douches, Inhalations, and
InsOlube Snufs, cannot possibly remove In
iec,ious infammations from the organs named
6. That ansautidote ior Catarrh must pos
sess an inoculative affinity for, and the quality

wherever located.
