The old saying that " con-
sumption can be cured if
taken in time" was poor com-
fort. It seemed to invite a
trial, but to anticipate failure.
The other one, not so old,
"consumption can be cured,"
is considered by many false.
Both are true and not
true ; the first is prudent—•
one cannot begin too early.
The means is careful liv
ing. Scott's Emulsion of

important part of that.

The above lotter is so frank, sooarnest and out-
spoken that we shall depart from our usual rulo
and answer it, stating exactly what wo know upon
tho subject. Tho interviews which wo have pub-
lished and to which the doctor reforB aro true in
every respect. We wero prompted to maka them
bocause thero is so much suffering prevalent iu
tho community and so great a demand on tho
part of the public for a complete investigation.
Wo found, as will bo soeu by the interviews, that
there is not a single case in which tho troubles
wore not relieved or removed by tho careful use
of Warner's Safe Cure. Many of the cases wero
much more serious than that of the doctor above
described, and we havo not tho slightest doubt
that ho will bo able to experience complete relief
by the same means.
Thero is more sickness throughout tho land
than thero should be—moro than there is any
need of. People need not suffer if they will uso
proper care and tho right remedy. Annoying
symptoms, pains, weaknesses aro common and far
too often are duo to neglect. Men and women en-
dure agonies when they should bo happy; sutler
pain when they might bo wholly free from it. The
doctor suffered for twenty years, but ho did not
tako tho right remedy. We earnestly hope tnat
none of our readers will neglect symptoms until
they run into diseases or put off tho time when
tlioy should attend to them or neglect to use tho
means best adapted for thoir relief.
