A Matter Which Concerns You. 
The following unsolicited opinions from 
your friends and neighbors, men and women 
whom you know and respoct, ought to carry 
conviction to any doubting mind. These 
words of gratitude are from those who have 
been afliicted but are now well, and the persons 
giving them are naturally solicitous that 
others, troubled as were they, may know tho 
means of cure. There is no reason why you 
should longer be ill from kidney, liver or 
stomach troubles. You can be cured as well 
as others, do not longer delay treatment, but 
to-day obtain that which will restore you to 
permanent health aud strength. 
New York, (143 3rd Ave.) Feb. 19. 1888.— 
After usiug “Warner’s Safe Cure,” I take 
pleasure in stating that I have fonnd it the 
greatest romedy for the kidneys in the world. 
I w-ould inform you that I followed tho pro¬ 
fession of a “Pedestrian” for upwards of 
twenty years and am proud to state that I 
retired as Champion Endurance Pedestrian of 
the world. I then became mauager of Walk¬ 
ing and Bicycle Matches. The severe strain 
told upon my kidneys. I suffered untold 
misery. I was induced to try “Warner’s Safe 
Cure” and after taking six (0) bottles, I am 
enabled to say I am better than I have been 
in ten years. I will with pleasure answer any 
parties who may desire information, 
Brooklyn, (458 Henry St) Jan. 3lst, 1888. 
—Last summer I suffered much from malaria 
and was recommended by a friend to try 
“Warner’s Safe Cure” aud am pleased to say 
*t worked a most successful cure. 
THE POST OFFICE CLUB. 
The congress of women recently held at 
Washington came up for discussion at the 
club tho other night. Tho number of men in 
our neighborhood who think women should 
be allowed to vote, seems to bo exceedingly 
limited. I suppose we are behind tbe age a mile 
or so. Tne general opinion among tho men— 
and women too for that matter—seems to be 
that at tho present tune woman’s work is home 
work. Most of our women folks would not vote 
it' they had the chance—except perhaps on the 
temperance question, aud wo are very t'ortun- 
ate in the fact that liquor does very lictlo dam¬ 
age iu our neighborhood. Our women folks 
seem to feel that if they can keep their homes 
bright and cheerful, do their full share of the 
work and muke life just as happy and bright 
as they can, with as little complaint us possi¬ 
ble, they are doing their full share of national 
work. It may bo that this aim in lile is not 
high enough aud that our women folks need 
toning up to a “higher ideal” or something 
of that kind, but you will travel a good many 
miles, if I do say it, before you will find a 
neighborhood where thero^is more of the 
“Bright Bide of Farming.” Btrauge to say, 
Uncle Jacob had little to say in this discussion. 
When we asked his opinion at last ho rubbed 
his head awhile and at length pulled out an old 
newspaper. 
“Veil veil,” he said” dot vas a subject dot 
vas nefer kept quiet, uud yet vas nefer settled. 
My obinion vas shust like a biece off boetry 
dot 1 reads mit my baber. In my obinion it 
puts dor subject shust into a nud shell und 
keeps it dere all der vile.” Bo he read tho 
following:—I do not know the author. 
I. 
“she vu« hunt out her ‘righis.’ 
Robbed mlt some gruel chance off live’s delights 
JWlt adlssaiislled uud restless soul, 
Mlt u hall logic dot she vas gount whole, 
Earnest no doubt, und honest, not unsexed, 
Hut hungering und garrulous uud vexed, 
Mitsiarvlng Instincts, mlt a fruitless fame, 
Und mlt an Itching for der sort off fame 
Dot gomes mlt der mere brlntlngs off a name 
She called out mit der ‘rights,’ showed solemn craft, 
Und all der men,

Dey vas shust laughed. 
II. 
She vas not hunt oud her “rights,” 
She dreamed not off some path mlt mannish bights,

Und bloomed mlt ilower und fruit mlt vomanhood. 
She lofed dot ‘tyrant;’ bore mlt noble part, 
Der life mlt him uud sayed, mit all her heart, 
Dot she had her rights.

'I o be unlike, but each vas supplement 
Unto der odor, dot vas her yontle whim 
He vas not more mit her dan she mit him, 
Und little ylldren gathered mlt ner knee, 
Und all der men,

New York city, (157 W. 23rd St.) Jau. 25th 
1888. —For about 10 years, up to three years 
ago, I was suffering the most excruciating 
and unbearable pains in the left side, contiuu- 
ally belching up wind, with a tired and lan¬ 
guid feeling, I am a conductor on the Eleva 
ted Railway, aud was when I commenced tak¬ 
ing “Warner’s Safe Cure.” I used to lose on 
an average four days every month with these 
horrible pains. 1 tried lots of doctors and lots 
of medicine but of no avail, until a friend 
came along and told me about “Warner’s 
Bate Cure.” I think I took about 18 or 20 bot¬ 
tles, entirely driving tho pain away, relieving 
me of that languid feeling, giving me a better 
color and good appetite.

—I have been employed on the Union Ferry

I was cured of the rupture, aud then taken 
with Hydrocele and was operated on by Dr. 
Burnham, of Now York City, tho last opera, 
tiou being performed in 188(5 at 222 Pearl St. 
Brooklyn. Since that time 1 have had a gath¬ 
ering of water in the stomach and weakness of 
the kidney. Last fall I was recommended to 
take “Warner’s Safe Cure,” aud since that 
time I have found great relief in my kidneys 
aud stomach.
