The law which Encircies the Entire
Globe.
Trave'ers who have gone ''far countries
for to see' say that they find hsman nature
pretty much the same. all the wcrld over.
They find wide variance In color Of skin.
In physical contour. in mental characteris-
ties. but In the essential elements that con-
troll social conduct. the human family is a
brotherhood.
The law. unwritten. found in no statute
book. enforced by no court DEGREES. but
having al influence circumscribed only by
the limits of earthly space. is the law Of
kindness.
Among peoples where cruelty to human
kind Il almost fixed habit. who are JeIent-
less foes, and as friends. scarcely, less to be
dreaded, whose savage natures revel in
fiendish atrocities, there yet fingers the
spark Of divinity which lifts man above the
beasts.
Sorrow melts the human heart wherever
found, and sympathy mingles its tears with
grief all the world over. Where pity does
not dwell. there lives no thing OF human
kind 1t Is 1.-The touch of nature that
makes the whole world kim
What Q terrible world this would be to
live In were it not for the sympathy and
loving kindness shown us when sorrow
comes, for Il IL decreed that In all lives
some days must be dark and dreafy."
The 10. 600 and more voluntary testimo-
pials the proprietOrs Of Warmers safe cure
have received in regard to the efficacy Of
that remedy. reveal this touch Of nature"
in q peculiar manner. The great majority
OF them acknowledge that it was through
sone kind friend who, in pity Tor their suf-
fering. Rad made known to them the won
derful merits Of this great remedy.
The testimonial of Capt. Geo. b. Wilt

was pitt Ashore from his ship 10 die of
fever resulting from kidney and liver

he says: "A friend OF mine, whe happened
into port, came to see me. and urged int TO
begin the use Of Warmers safe cure" He
began to use 1t, as his friend advised. and
was cured In very short time.
How many men there are today In the
world, rounding out lives Of usefulness,
making the world happier and better, who
would have long since passed to the other
shore. had II not been for the loving kind
ness Of friends. shown in this practical way.
