Terrible Evil.

f-.sHe si | The Imperhtfve Reformation Necessary
 i'm the Liver of the American People. If there are any special charaeteristics i which the people of America have had pre- i eminently in the past, they are most decided 1y those of energy, activity and enterprise. i These qualities have conquered 3 land that was once wilderness, populated 1t with fifty millions of people, reared it's cities and founded institutions that are rivals of the en- tire world. These same qualities have not rested with mere accomplishment, but have gone forward to still greater things. It was the energy and enterprise of America that developed the great modern improvements- the railroad, the steamboat, the telegraph, the telephone and the innumerable things that add to the comforts of life and facilities of business. America is acknowledged by the world to be an energetic nation. and it has always sustained it's reputation for this quail ty in the highest degree.
 But, notwithstanding these notable quali- ties in the past, the energy of the nation
 seems to be departing. Some unseen cause is apparantly sapping the vitality of our peo-
 pie, retarding their progress and checking
 their enterprise. There are many men to-day
 who were once unusually active who now feel
 unaccountably indolent, and the same may be saidof women. Thecommop name given by the world to such actions is Iaziness but 1t is .
 
 sre not and never have been lazy feel total lack of energy and ambition. Many realize this fuky, but cannot account for it. Their judgment tells them they should be alive and stirring, but their physical powers do not seem equal to the task. They are ambitious only in name. So extensive, indeed, has this feeling become among the American people, that it is observable on every hand and at tracts almost universal attention. It's indu- ence is felt upon the growth of many enter prises and institutions, which have been seriously retarded thereby. It threatens to paralyze if not wholly destroy many under { takings which have been of the greatest ben eft to the country.
 Now all this lack of energy has @ natural cause, which it is the object of this article to explain. In the judgment of many careful 1 scientific men and others, the lack of ambi- | ton so manifest in the land can be traced | directly to lack of nutriment. In other l words, the food which people eat is not ab- | sorbed by the system and hence does not ! sustain the life. It may be digested, but 1t | is not assimilated This is 8 most serious | matter as the results above described clearly | indicate. It is not only mysterious but widespread and devastating in it's character. | When nature is in need, it requires reinforce i ment. It is absolutely necessary to assist the
 body in order that it may reach the condition I where it can properly perform it's duties, | which can only be done by means of some ' | aroused to healthy action. This truth was realized nearly century ago; and our fore | fathers, although subjected to but little Of | the strain which we are now compelled to
 bear, constantly toned their systems and sought to keep them in order. They did this l largely by means of a tonic which was known l through the States at that time, and which is l used as the basis and general formula of the present great tonic, Tppecanoe. This tonic I is prepared by Messrs. H. H. Warner Go |, | of Rochester, N. r., who are the proprietors | of the we'll known Warmers Safe cure; and | also of the Safe Rheumatic Cure which is | becoming so popular and for mal- assimilation | of food with it's painful consequences, lack of energy, tired feeling, general debility and l prostration, it is certainly more valuable than ! anything that has ever been known before in ! the history of the world.
 Nature is strange in her manifestations and peculiar in her ways. She sometimes seems \ to precipitate disease upon those apparently l most healthy. One thing, however, is cer- 1 tain,-she will not be triRed with. If her laws are neglected, even though unintention- ally, the most serious ills are certain to arise | An ounce of prevention is worth 8 ton of I cure. Nothing can compensate for lost I health. A constant use of the pure and stand | ard remedy above described will certainly | cause the proper assimilation of food, thus preventing loss of energy or lack of power SO much to be dreaded and so greatly to be l deplored. These are facts which merit the I serious consideration of all and facts which concern the prosperity and well being of the | nation.
