Dear Sir: L am using Warmers Safe Cure,
and regard it as the best remedy tor some
forus of kidney disease that we have. l am
watching with great care some cases l AN

BILE results.
[ wish you might come down yourself, as
| would like very much to talk with you
over your sterling remedy, and show you
over our institution. Yours truly,

II DO not see why anybody should be
skeptical concerning that letter, remarked
the doctor
"Isn't it unususl for physician of your

prietary PREPARATION
II don't know how il may be with others,
but in this institution we allow no person to
dictate to US what we shall use. Our purpose
is to cure the sick, and for that work we use
anything we know to be valuable. Because
l know Warmers Safe Cure is very valu-
able preparation, | commend it. As its
power is manifested under my use, so shall l
add TO the completeness Of my commenda-

Have you ever analysed it, doctor 81
I'VE always snalyze before we try any
preparation of which we do not know the
constituents. But analysis, you know, only
gives the elements; it does not give the all
important proportions. The remarkable
power of Warmers Safe Cure undoubtedly
consists in the proportions according to which
its elements are mixed. While there may
be thousand remedies made Of the same
elements, unless they sre put together in
proper proportions, they are worthless as
kidney and liver preparations.
81 hope some day to meet Mr.. Warner
personally, and extend fuller congratulations
him on the excellence Of his preparations.

The conclusion reached by DIR. Foster is
