"Do you object to telling me howl"
| No, Sir. Studying the matter with sew
eral opium-eating physicians, we became
satisfied that the appetite for opium was
located in the kidneys and liver. Our next
object was to find specific for restoring
those organs to health. The physicians,

"Have others tried your traatment?''
"Yes, sir, many; and all who have fol-

them who did not first treat their kidneys

of treatment is always insisted upon for

MIR. Wilson stands very high wherever
Known. His experience Is only another
proof of the wonderful and conceded power
OF Warmers safe cure over all diseases of
the kidneys, liver and blood, and the dis
eases caused by arrangements of those
organs. We may say that it is very flatter-
ing to the .proprietors of Warmers safe
cure that i6 has received the highest msdi-
cal endorsement and, after persistent
study, it is admitted by scientists that
there is nothing in materia medica for the
restoration Of those great organs that
equals it in power. We take pleasure in
publishing the above statements coming
from so reliable source as Mr. Wilson and
confirming by personal experience what
we have time and again published in our
tors our hearty congratulations on the re-
suits wrought
