CURES LAME BACK.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, (86 Exchange street,, Dec. 21, 1S97.-Thirteen years ago had pa- ralysis and convulsions. Two doctors at My back troubled me greatly-would have to be turned over in bed, as I was not able to help myself. After that my feet and limbs became so swollen could not wear shoes, as there were none large enough. My body bloated and the doctors said had dropsy and must die. 1 was not able to ride in carriage or horse car, go anywhere for six months. I finally changed doctors, but the last one said I could live only few months at most. was told that my chief difficulty was the hardening of the marrow in the spinal col- umn. thought as last resource I would try ''Warner's Safe Cure" The first bottle did not seem to do much good. I tried the second. Thought gained a little strength. I then wrote for 'ftreatment blank" re- ceiYed one, filled it out as far as could and wrote in regard to myself. received a di- sgnosis of my case and found I had kidney trouble. I have been using "Warners Safe Cure' for year and half; have taken from sixty to seventy bottles; am now able to do my own work, though I have had help for four years previously. My friends exclaim when they see me and ask. "What is it that brought you from deaths door!'' I am al- ways more than glad to say it is "Warner's Safe Cure" I belong to the ''Shut In'' soci- ety, most of them invalids, and I have writ ten letters to all parts of the country, testify ing to the benefits derived from using "War- ner's Safe Cure"

Cures Connecticut Malaria.

HARTFORD, Conn, (215 Main street,, Jan. 5, 18s9.-About two years ago I began to feel nervous and languid. The slightest ex- ertion entirely upset me. At first l paid no particular attention to it, but as time wore on grew worse. Every little while would have sharp pains in my back. My urine would be very highly colored and then again would have milkywhite appearance. Be- coming alarmed put myself under medical treatment; and for a while improved, but it was not lasting. I became worse of than ever. The pains in my back, particularly in the region of my left kidney, were constant and most excr1ciating. It was with great diGculty that attended to business. Still I managed to keep up until last fall, when was about giving up all hope. I was told that was suffering from congested kidneys. This was about the latter part of October. One day was talking with gentleman and he advised me to try 'tWarner's Safe Cure. !" I began to feel better after taking one-half 8 bottle. I kept on taking it until I am very thankful to say I was entirely cured,

 There will probably be no strike of the brewers to-day. They have held meeting and decided that it is useless to go out. There will be no trouble unless the boss brewers refuse to sign the contracts with their men tor another year. The contracts run out to-day and it is said that the bosses will re- fuse to sign them for another year. All the brewers in the city except Weidenan of AL lingtown belong to the association. The con- tracts will probably be presented by the Brewers union to-day. The men that desire to sign them individually will probably be retained and those declining will be refused work. At Weibel's brewery yesterday the men were at work as usual and nothing new seemed to have arisen.
