cit is the most dreadful spot on
the American continent" said a dis.
tinguished Frenchman who once WIS.,
tied the notorious New York slum
known as the Five Points" The
same opinion was expressed by
Charles Dickens after going through
this dangerous quarter with an armed
police escort. The five points in
those days was famous as the abode
OF thieves, thugs and murderers.
In recent years. this unsavory dis
trict has undergone marked i'm
provement. Today it compares
favorably with similar quarters of
other great cities. and most of this
Improvement is due to the celebrated
Five Points mission and its army of
Christian workers. This excellent
organization has performed and is
performing great and noble work.
One of the greatest works of the
mission is to minister to the sick and
it Is work that has been highly sue
cessful. And yet the officers of the
mission have been enabled to combat
vast amount of sickness and afford
relief in many critical cases with the
aid OF but one standard remedy. 1t
is, OF course, a remedy we'll known
to the medical profession and one
that has been prescribed by many
eminent physicians.

1896,

In speaking of this matter not long
ago, Rev. j. H. Beale, financial agent
of the Five Points mission, said:
"a remedy largely used among the
people connected with our mission is
Warmers Safe Cure. and 1 am able to
state that they have received great
benefit from it and are ready to ties.
tify thereto.''
Mrs. N. Elliott. a visitor of the
mission, expresses a similar opinion.
She says: latter using Warmers
Safe Cure among our mission people
for several months, l regard it as a
public duty to endorse it as a safe
and sure cure for liver and kidney
and female complaints. One very
severe case which had been given
over by the doctors was supplied
with bottle, and the improvement
was so marked as to inspire new
courage and hope, causing her to
feel like new woman. This is only
one case of MANY"
Nothing ever known in the history
OF the world has equaled Warmers
Safe Cure for making men, women,
and even children healthier and hap.

And feet Mississippi flows smoothly serene.
With q silvery surface this morning.
The warm air Is filed with the odor of flowers:
And tender young leaflets, well nourished by

Tis vista OF groves and inviting cool bowers
Which fanciful spring is adjoining.
But why has the landscape grown suddenly
DARK.
Look over the river for answer and bark
To the menacing thunders low growing,
The winddr.ven. black. smoke-like clouds
twirl and roll
See the low-trailing, funnel-shaped center.

Does not quail, as the cyclone speeds pas, to
With horrible crashing and bowling,
Gaze now on the sand colored, foam-crested
And know that boatman is active who saves
