mechanical musical instruments in
vented is an automatic banjo which
does everything that human fingers
can do to produce .tuneful melody.

A PAIN.
AN ACHE.
A FEAR.
A DISCOVERY! /!

The above words are only few in num-
Der, but they tell startling story. 1t
is the story OF the man who suffers from
diseased kidneys and impure blood. He
has been ailing for some time past He
has complained OF tired feelings, low
spirits, dizziness, constipation, dyspepsia,
bad tasting mouth, coated tongue. He
has been troubled with pains in the back
and limbs, sick headaches. He gets
alarmed and at last discovers the cause Of
these distressing symptoms.
This is not the experience OF one man
alone. It is the experience Of thousands
of people who today find themselves in a
bad state of health. They know they are
ailing; they feel the need of remedy bur
they know not what to take.
1t is for just such people that Warmers
Safe Cure is specially prescribed and re-
commended by eminent physicians. This
is because it Is no ordinary remedy but a
scientific discovery OF the highest merit.
1t is not an experiment of a new thing,
but time-tried remedy that has stood
the test of years. 1t is the best remedy
for people who suffer from liver and
kidney complaint and impure blood.
There is nothing like 1t for building up
the system ana restoring the strength.
