darkey had begun to think. The free and in
dependent thought of this age accepts state
ments only where they are proven to be truth,
while the development of mental power seems
equally great Id every other department of life.
The valuable inventions of the day are counted
by thousands. The increase of scientific study
is universal. The spirit Of inquiry in all fields
is so marked as to cause
COMMENT ON EVERY SIDE
while people seem investigating and advancing
in every direction which can help them moral
ly, mentally or physically. This is specially
true of the human body and everything which
concerns it. and the truths which the people
have found, even in the last fifty years. are
simply marvellous. How really ignorant some
cultured and supposedly scientific people were
only few years ago as compared with the present
day, may be better understood from few Illus
tratiye facts A prominent writer prepared an
elaborate essay to prove that steamships could
never cross the Atlantic, and his pamphlet was
issued Just in time to be carried by the first
steamer that went to England. People once
believed that the heart WAS the seat OF life and
health. 1t is now known that this organ IS only
pump, simply keeping in motion what other
and more important organs OF the body have
created and transformed. It was once supposed

was deranged; if pain came in the lower chest
the lungs were affected and consumption was
near; it is now known that pain in the back
indicates diseased kidneys, while troubles IN the
lower chest arise from disordered liver and
not imperfect lungs. A severe pain IN the head
was once thought to come from some partial
arrangement of the brain; it is now known that
troubles in other parts Of the body and away
from the head, cause headaches and that only
by removing the cause can the pain be cured.
1t is matter of
PRIVATE HISTORY
that General Washington was bled to death.
His last illness was slight and caused princi-
pally by weariness. A physician was called who
bled him copiously. Strange TO say, the
patient became no better. Another doctor was
called, who again took away large amount OF
the vital fluid. Thus in succession four physl-
clans drew away the life of great man who was
intended by nature for an old age and who pre-
maturely died-murdered by malpractice
bled to death. That was the age OF medical
bleedingP'
The speaker then graphically described an
other period which came upon the people, in
which they assigned the origin of all diseases to
the stomach, and after showing the falsity OF
this theory, and that the kidneys and liver were
the causes Of disease, and that many people arc
suffering from kidney and liver troubles to-day
who do not know, but who should know 1t and
attend to them at once, continued;
ssIet US look at this matter little more
closely. The human body is the most perfect
and yet the most delicate Of all created things.
It is canable Of the greatest results and it il
liable to the greatest disorders. The slightest
causes sometimes seem to throw its delicate
machinery out of order while the most simple
aud common sense care restores and keeps them
in perfect condition. When it is remembered
that the amount of happiness or misery we are
to have in this world is dependent upon per-
feet body, is it not strange that simple preeau-
tons and care are not exercised This IS one
of the most vital questions of Gfe People may
avoid it for the present, but there IS certain to
come time in every ones experience when it
must be faced.
And here pardon me for relating little
personal experience. In the year 1870 found
myself losing both in strength and health.

cause of physical order and disorder happiness
and pain, and found the kidneys and liver tc
be the governors, whose motions regulate the
entire systenl.''
After describing at length the offices of the
kidneys and liver, and their important part in
life, the doctor went on to say:
g Having found this great truth, saw clearly
the cause of my recovery. The simple vegetable

well-nigh exhausted kidneys and liver. 1t had
come to them when their life was nearly gone

purified, strengthened and restored them and
saved me from DEATH Realizing the great bene

HAPPY RESULTS
which I had experienced Not only this but
many, who were not conscious of any physical
trouble but who, at my suggestion, began the
use of the remedy which had saved my life,
found their health steadily improving and their
strength continually increasing. So universal,
where used, was this true, that determined the
entire world should share in its results, and
therefore placed the formula for its preparation
in the hands of Mr.. Fl. H. Warner, of Rochester,
N Y. gentleman whom I had cured of a
severe kidney disease, and who, by reason OF
his personal worth, high standing and liberality
in endowing the Astronomical Observatory and
other public enterprises, has become known and
popular to the entire country. This gentleman
at once began the manufacture of the remedy
on a most extensive SCALE and to-day, Warner s
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, the pure remedy
that saved my life, is known and used in all
parts of the continent.
Il am aware a prejudice exists toward pro-
prietary medicines, and that such prejudice is
too often well-founded, but the value of pure
remedy is no less because it is a proprietary
medicine. a Justifable prejudice exists toward
auaclE doctors, but is it right that this prejn-
dice should extend toward al Che doctors who
are earnestly and inteliigently trying to do
their duty Because Warmers Safe Kidney
and Liver Cure saved my life before 1t became
: nroprietary medicine IS it reasonable to sup
pose that it will not cure others and keep still
! more from sickness now that it is sold with a
| government stamp on the wrapper? Such a
theory would be childish.
The doctor then paid some high compliments
to American science, and closed his lecture as
follows:
ssHow to restore the health when broken and
how to keep the body perfect and free from
disease must ever be mans highest study.
That one of the greatest revelations OF the
present day has been made in ascertaining the
true seat Of health to be in the kidneys and
liver, all scientists now admit, and can but
