FATAL MISTAKE.
How n LAUNDERING Judgment May
he Responsible for the Most
serious Results.

Mr.. Edwin Booth said recently that he
supposed his lungs were affected, having
a persistent cough, until he saw Or.
Mackenzie, of London, who fonnd that
this symptom arose from disturbance OF
the liver.-Nelo York Herald.
The above item, which has been going
the rounds of the press, is of no special
significance other than to the personal
to light truth of the greatest
importance to the world. Few people
pass through life without the affection OF
a cough at some point in their career. In
most cases this is considered the result OF
a cold or the beginning of consumption
and thousands have become terrified at
this revelation and have sought by a
change of air and the use of cough medl-
cines to avert the impending disaster. IL
may safely be said that more than half the
coughs which are affecting the world to-
day do not have their origin in the lungs,
but are the result Of more serious troubles
in other organs of the body. "LiVeT
coughs" are exceedingly common ana
yet are almost wholly misunderstood.
Arising from a disordered state of the
liver they show their results by coDgest-
ing the lungs. In fact, the efforts OF the
liver to throw of the disease, produce
coughing even when the lungs them
selves are in n healthy state.
But il is a mistake to suppose that such
delicate tissues as the lungs can long re-
main in q healthy condition when they
are being constantly agitated by cough
ing. Such a theory would be absurd.
Consumption, which was feared at nrst,
is certain to take place unless something
is done to check the cause. This must be
plain to every thoughtful mind. Itstands
to reason, therefore, that the only way in
which silver coughs" can be removed is
be restoring the liver to health.
In this connection another fact of great
Importance becomes known, which can
best be explained by the relation OF
an actual event. Mr.. W, wealthy
reduced in health and came east to Chi
go for the purpose of being cured. tie
consulted DR.. j., one of the leading
physi' ians of the country on pulmonic
subjects and began treatment for the cure
of his lungs. But his cough increased
while his strength decreased. Finally he
determined to consult another physician
and applied to DIR. B After a care
full examination he was informed that his
lungs was perfectly sound. while his kid
neys were in a most terrible condition.
He had all the apparent symptoms of con-
sumption but he was suffering from the
terrible Bright's disease. The symptoms
OF consumption are often the sure lDulcd-
tons OF Bright's disease
The above truths regarding coughs
have been known by the leading physi-
clans for several years, but the public
have never been Informed OF them. They
are serious facts, however, and should be
understood by all, so that dangers which
mi yht otherwise prove fatal may be
avoided. They clearly prove one great
truth. which is that the kidneys and liver
are such vital organs that their health
should be constantly guarded. The dis
tressing hacking cough, which is often
dreaded as the forerunner of consump-
ton and the wasting strength which ac-
companies il, in all probability may arise
FROM weakened or diseased kidneys or
liver, to restore which would cause re-
turning health. How this desirable end
may be attained has long been problem,
but few people of intelligence at the pre-
sent day have longer any doubts that the
popular remedy known as Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure has done more t0
correct. relieve and restore these organs
than any other preparations ever before
known. There are hundreds of instances
which have occurred within the past
three months where individuals have be-
lieved themselves the victims of cOnsump-
ton. while, in reality, it was deranged
kidneys and liver, which this remarkable
medicine has completely cured, as witness
the following statement:

There are thousands of people in Amer
lea to-day who believe they are the VIC
tins of consumption and destined to an
early grave and who are trying to save
themselves by the use of consumption
cures but are growing worse each hour.
Let all such persons stop, and calmly con-
slider whether they are lot seeking to
check disease in the lungs when it is To-
Gated in the kidneys and liver. Let them
then treat the disease in its original
stronghold and by the remedy which has
been proven to be the most effective and
then look for the return of health and
happiness which such treatment is sure
