II cannot be denied that the idea Of anti

extremely critical. As matters stand, only the
fact that no Power wishes TO take the initiative

Common Sense

is possessed by most people who think
for themselves. The average man knows
that if his blood is impure he feels sick all
over. He has headache nausea, bad taste
in the mouth, is costive and can put no
energy into his work The kidneys are
designed to purify the blood but if dis
eased and tired out they cannot do It.
Extra work is thrown on the liver and
lungs and they too become diseased under
the additional burden until the whole
body is completely poisoned. What is
to be done? Common sense says put the
kidneys, the blood-purifying organs, in
good health and do it at once with War
ners Safe Cure before the kidneys break
down and disintegrate from Bright's dis
ease.-Warner's Safe Cure, a purely vege-
table preparation, has cured thousands Of
men and women during the past twenty
years who were in danger of death. 1t
does exactly as represented and does 1t
quickly. One bottle will aid, few bottles
will cure. 1t is not a cheap decoction
but a scientific preparation carefully COM

health but give this great remedy an op-
