TIMELY TOPICS.

An American physician who has
given attention to the study of alcohol
ism, said in the course of an address re-
Gently delivered before a learned So
ciety: "There are constantly crowd
ing into our insane asylums persons
fifty to eighty years of age, who in early
life were addicted to the use of alcoholic
liquors, but who had reformed, and for
ten, twenty or thirty years have never
touched drop. The injury which the
liquor did to their bodies seemed to have
all disappeared, being triumphed over
by the full vigor of their manhood, but
when their natural force began to de-
crease, then the concealed mischief
showed itself in insanity, clea. y demon
strating that the injury to their bodies
was of permanent character"
Gen. Tom Harrison's Texas brigade,
composed of two Texas, one Tennessee
and one Arkansas regiment, was proba-
bly, the last brigade under fire during the
war, as it was engaged with Northern
troops between Raleigh and Salisbury,
N. c.. just above Chapel Hill, on April
IA, 1865, the day that the armistice was
declared. The flag carried on that day
by one of the Texan regiments the
Eleventh leXas VOlunIeers) IS now IN
the possession of John Halford, Of Deni-
son, Texas, who was a member of that
regiment at the time, and who concealed
it and brought it home with him in the
back of his jacket. This is probably the
last Southern flag fired at by United
States troops. 1t is small, silk Con-
federate flag, and still in good condition,
there being only one small tear in it, and
that was done the last day it was under
fire.

go through the summer without un-

comes dry and parched the tongue fur
red with white, the pulse irregular, the
head feyerish, the body eramped, and
the limbs swollen and tired. Ladies'
especially, with their natural delicacy
and tendency to female troubles, find the
hot weather almost unbearable, while
little children are dying every day from
exhaustion and because parents neglect
~precaution and care. A prominent and
well known physician Ct New York as
serts Is his positive belief that more
than thr~ee-fourths Of all so-called sum-
mer complaints arise from disordered
secretions, and that these secretionary
organs, which, by being out Of order
cause 80 much trouble. are the Kidneys
and Liver. These organs are the gov
emors Of the system, and by their move
nlents the other parts OF the body are
regulated. The brain controls the life,
bnt the lower part Of the body rnles the
health.
There Is one, and only one known
vegetable that will absolutely regulate
and control the Kidneys and Liver at
all times and thus prevent the many

The Rev. q. A. Harvey, d. d., of the
Howard University, of Washington,
has written the following letter:
GENTLEMEN-I take great pleasure
in stating that l have for two years
past been acquainted with the remedy
known as Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure, and that in some cases
which had been given up by practi-
TONERS Of both schools, the speedy
change wrought by this remedy seemed
but little less than miraculous. l am
convinced that no remedy for kidney
troubles heretofore discovered can be
held for one moment In comparison
with 1t. Respectfully youis,
Z. A. HARVEY.
