J.D, BAGeY & C0, DRUGGISTS... GOLD FISH AGENTS WHAT IS THE GRIP? It Is Certainly a Most Mysterious Disease, But Its Real Cause Is Clearly Explained. Investigation has shown that nearly every family in the city has had at least one of its members attacked by the grip, bat it seems to be coming in adifferent form this year th: fore. Men and womer ore of nausea, pains in limbs aod about the back pba genera! lack of appetite and ambition, Now, all this proves cleerly just where the cause of the grip ented, Have you ever seen a sewer or drain clogged up after a heavy tain? It is precisely this way witn the grip. The kidneys get clogged up aud the poisonous acids which should pass from the systen are thrown back until finally they get into the blood and so poison the whole body. Read what the em‘vent Dr. Ham- iiton bas t> 5 upon this§subject: “It is clear,”’ says he, ‘that in order to drive grip and similar poisons {rom the system it is only necessary to open up the sewers; in other words to put the kidneys in perfect working order so that they will carry these poisons away instead of allowing them to clog up and ruin the blood, and, unfortanately, this is not alto- yether an easy thing to do. ‘There is, so far the medical profession and science kaow, but one discovery that will quickly and ef- fectually open up the kidaeys and at the same time soothe them. That discovery, which has cured so maay thousands of men and women; which wally the world over is Warner's Safe Cure. Itis recommended ard used by the higkest medical authorities Hoth abroad and in America, It can be taken by the most aged person and the tintest child with beneficial effect, for it is perfectly pure snd harwless. Prof. Beyer, of Germany, Dr. William Edward Robson, of England, and Dr. Guon, of New York, are all prominent men who speak in the highest terms of this great remedy, If you have uny symptoms of the grip, let me advise you to act promptly, for you will find that Safe Cure will relieve you quick- ly, take you from a condition of mis- ery and put you on the road to health.’’ Last Notice Sent.

The report of the board of inquiry has left Key West and is now route to this city. It is expected that it will be in the hands of the hands of the President not later than Monday.

Moreover. the fleet at Key West has not been weak- ened numerically ; in fact, in point of numbers it has been strengthened.
