WHAT IS SUICIDE?
One OF the Leading Ministers Of New
York Speaks Out Openly.


What is suicide? It is the taking of
ones life. Whether this is done instant
1y or through a long course of years
matters not. In either case it is sui
eide
THE man who allows the strains and
cares of life, overworlz, ambition or dis
sipation to undermine and shorten his
life is committing suicide as actually as
the man who sends a bullet into his
brain.
1.-The woman who permits the cares Of
her family, her social ambition, her dis
regard of the laws of health to weaken
her, cause her to fade, bring about early
old age and untimely death, is commit
ing suicide as surely as the one who
takes an overdose of Iaudanum."
The above remarks were made in sub
stance by one of the most prominent
preachers of New York city during the
present week. He is a man known to
everybody, and his remarks as above
stated are true. Probably few people
have looked at the subject in just this
light, and probably fewer ever thought
what it is that first gives way under
the strain OF life. To such we will say
that the most delicate, the most sensf-
tive and the first to be affected organs
of the body are the kidneys, and upon
them comes the great strain of life
They become weakened, then diseased,
and then death ensues. Myriads of men
and more women die from this cause;
indeed, there is no source of modern
trouble SO prevalent as diseased kid
neys.
And yet there is way by which, with
all the strains of life and all the self de-
struction which they cause, these evil
effects can be avoided. Do you ask
how? I will tell you. Take proper care
of yourself. Avoid excuses. Above all,
guard your kidneys as you would your
life. 1t is no easy thing to do, I will
admit, but it can be done. There is a
great modern discovery which will keep
you perfectly. You ask what it is? I
answer, Warmers Safe Cure.
1t is this wonderful preparation that
has enabled SO many people to retain
their health and enjoy a good old age.
Thousands of men and women are kept
alive today entirely by it's use. Here is
one case. 1t is that Of Charles Jacobs,
residing in Wayland, Mass. He had
been a sufferer from kidney trouble, and
for months he was unable to eat any
solid food. He is now in far better
health than he ever was, and he says
he owes his life to Warmers Safe Cure.
His letter is as follows:
For four years I had been a terrible
ey11ff III
last reduced to such debilitated condf-
est work.
ct consulted a physician In Waltham,
and he prescribed for me. but I steadily
grew weaker under his treatment.
He said there was nothing more that
anyone could do for me.
81 felt rather discouraged upon re-
ceiving such information, but I deter
mined to make another effort, and con-
suited a specialist in kidney Diseases
located in Boston.
This physician told me that he could
cure me, but, after taking five or six
bottles of his medicine without relief,
again became discouraged, and gave up
hope.
ITO add to my agony the specialist
informed me that he had done every
thing in his power for me, and he ad-
vised me to go home and take no more
medicine, as my lease of life was about
ended.
"a few days later ran across an ad-
vertisement of Warmers Safe Cure and
was struck with the testimonials Of
some of the people that claimed to have
been cured of kidney trouble by it's use.
"I purchased a bottle of Warmers
Safe Cure, and have thanked the Lord
many times since for throwing that ad-
vertisement in my way, as I firmly be-
lieve that it was the means of saving
my life.
Il had not taken more than half a
bottle of the medicine before I began
to feel better.
The severe pains that had suffered
for months became less severe, and
when I had finished the bottle they had
entirely disappeared.
81 continued taking the medicine until
I finished eight bottles, and I am free
to say that today I am stronger and
healthier than ever was before in my
life.
Can you not see the way clear now
to long life and renewed health and
vigor? Let me, by all means, advise
you to follow this good advice, and fol-
low it now"
