YOUR WEAK SPOT
DO YOU KNOW JUST WHERE IT is ?

"A Fortress is no Stronger Than its Weak
est Spot" Neither is Any Man or
Woman.
"Hopelessly ruined through one weak
spotw
1t was great scientific expert who recently
expressed this opinion in regard to costly
batteship lately completed for the U. s.
Navy. When the huge vessel was launched
and made ready to receive its gigantic
cannon, it was found that it could not stand
the strain of the added weight The whole
ship was in danger of falling to pieces.
Owing to u weak spot in its construction, the
great man-of-war was hopelessy ruined 1t
was only when the strain came that its weak
condition was actually discovered
Strange as it may SEEM there are thousands
of men and women in exactly the same con.
dition as this great battle ship. They have
weak spots in their systems which they never
suspect They pay no attention to alarming
symptoms of ill-health and seek no remedy.
Some day u strain comes and they discover
too late that they are in no condition to fight
with disease. They catch sudden cold or
chill and it speedily turns into pneumonia.
They suffer from peculiar sensations or pains
which eventually turn out to be the
of the liver.
Where is the weak spot in your system
The chances are that you have one which
badly needs attention. Physicians tell us
that in almost every case, the weak spot can
be found in the liver or kidneys These
great organs of the body require constant
watching Our climate, our diet, our habits
of living put them to continual strain, and
when they get out of order, the whole sys-
tenn suffers.
If you are feeling tired, worn out, gloomy,
dull, dizzy ard nervous, have pains In the
back and loins, suffer from headaches, chilly
sensations, biliousness or are losing sleep and
flesh, you can make up your mind that your
liver and kidneys are in need of treatment
You haye weak spot that must not be
trihed with.
There is one cause for these weak spots
There is only one way to cure them. Some
thing is needed to act on the liver and kid
neys where the weakness exists. You can
not cure disease of these great organs with
pills or other cheap remedies. Something is
required to strike at the root of the ailment.
There is in fact only one remedy which is
guaranteed to cure every form of liver and
kidney complaint. That remedy is Warmers
Safe Cure which for twenty years has stood
the test and earned, as all are aware, world
wide reputation. No other remedy compares
with it for regulating the action of the liver
and kidneys, driving out disease, building up
the system and giving fresh life. Writing
upon the subject DIR. Gum says: I'm large
class of ailments where the blood is in an un-
healthy state, where the general health is
bad, the face sallow, the urine colored, the
advantage gained by the use of Warner
Safe Cure is remarkable"
Every person has weak spot" some por-
ton of the body that needs help. Do you
not think it would be well to use that which
is certain to help and to cure and to do so
