And Certain Facts which Should be

short time since an article appeared In
the columns Of this paper, being synopsis Of
a lecture delivered by prominent woman be-
fore well known New England society. This
article dealt so directly with the needs of wo-
men, and contained 80 many hints which
were valuable. that 1t naturally attracted no
little attention, and has, we learn, been sub
ject OF comment In social circles In nearly
every part Of the land. Realizing that no sub
ject can be Of more vital Importance, as well
as interest to all readers, than the condition of
the women Of America, we have collected and
prepared with considerable care, additional
facts bearing upon this same subject
The ladies of this country have been more
observed and talked about than those Of any
other land, and Europeans always notice their
enthusiastically with admiration. Sara
one could resist falling In love with "thOse
pretty American ladies'" She might have ad-
ded, that even her far-famed French nation
would find 1t difficult to equal, much less excel,
American women In quickness OF perception
aud brilliancy OF intellect. The minds and
manners OF American women are all that can
be desired; but II Is lamentable fact that
their physical frames are far Inferior in com.
parison with their social and mental character.
istics. The women of England are noted for
| their h0rid health; those OF Germany for their
strong constitutions, aud the ladies or France
for their exuberance OF spirits; but American
women possess 40 one Of these qualities In
any prominence. aud all OF them only in q
slight degree. i
The reason for this must be plain 10 every
careful observer. Sedentary ways, devotion
to fashi0n-but above all and more thaa all C re-,
lessRess and Indifference to daily habits ana
duties, have rendered the women of this land
far less strong and healthy than it is either
their duty or privilege to be. This irregular
and Indifferent manner of living, brings about
the most serious results aud IL both directly
and indirectly OF untold injury TO the race
The cause, therefore, being manifestly under
tho control Of the women themselves, the
power ~ remove 1t must naturally DO under
their control also. American women can pos
sess just as charmed lives as though they lived
in Europe or any foreign land, Ii they only de.
sired and determined to do so.
The primary cause OF suffering from disease
is impure blood. The performance OF the nat
ural functions OF wOmanhOOd and mother
hood Is not disease nor should 1t be treated
as such, and 10 maintain ones health tho Or
gans which make and purify the blood must
be preserved IN, or restored to, their normal
condition. These organs are the kidneys and
liver.
1t is the Office Of the kidneys to take from
the blood the poisonous matter which has
been collected from nil parts of the body and
pass 1t OF from the system. III they are im
! paired In their action, they cannot do this
work. the poison accumulates, dU the organs
in the body, which are sustained by the blood,
are weakened and give way and 6ually the
kidneys and contiguous organs become the
source OF great pain, and, without prompt re-
lief death ID certain.

however, OF preventing these manifold dlsOr-

it certainly merits, the most careful attention
and the trial Of the women o. the land. Ii Is
pure and simple vegetable remedy which Is
now doing more to bring health and strength
to the American women than any one thing
which has ever been discovered. 1t acts di.

The manufacturers OF this great remedy, as we
learn from the lecture, have the written thanks
OF thousands OF wOmen-many OF them
great prOminence-bu these letters are very
properly regarded as too sacred for publica-
ton. No true woman Is pleased To have her
physical troubles fl aunted In the eyes OF the
world.
The unquestionabe value of Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Cureis all the more manifest
from the fact that heretofore no adeQuate rem

been able to assist woman In her troubles rs

the presence OF so much bigOtry and intOler.
ance in that profession. The history of medi-
cine Is history which illustrates TO the fullest
the bligbting effect OF bigOtry and intolerance.
Harvey, who discovered the circulation OF the
blood, was driven out of England. Jenner,the
father OF vaccination, was oppressed and SCOT
fed at. Thompson, the founder OF the Th0mp.

spiracy. Morton, In Massachusetts who 10.

tons, was charged with witchcraft, and yet
the discoveries OF these men are to-day recOg-
nized as OF infinite benefit TO the race. Il Is
the solemn duty of every physician In the
land to take advantage OF every opportunity
which Is within his reach; not to promote the
interests Of this or that school, but to heal the
people of their infrmities. All have witnessed
death-b bed scenes, and felt that II skill were
