SERIOUS Results.
Mr.. Edwin Booth said recently that
he supposed his lungs were affected, hav-
ing persistent cough, until he saw Dr.
Mackenzie, of London, who found that
this symptom arose from disturbance OF
the liver.-N. Y. Herald.
The above item, which has been going the
rounds of the press, is Of no special signih-
canoe other than to the personal friends OF
Mr.. Booth, except that it brings to light
truth of the greatest Importance TO the
world Few people pass through life without
the aft1iction of cough at some point in their
career. In most cases this is considered the
result OF cold or the beginning of consump-
ton, and thousands have become terrified at
this revelation and have sought by change
of air and the use Of cough medicines to avert
the impending disaster. 1t may safely he 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:
Liver coughs are exceedingly common and
yet are almost wholly misunderstood Aris-
ing from disordered state of the liver they
show their results BY congesting the lungs
In fact, the efforts Of the liver to throw of
the disease, produce coughing even when the
lungs themselves are in q healthy state.
But it is mistake to suppose that sucn
delicate tissues as the lungs can long remain
in healthy condition when they are being
constantly agtated by coughing. such
theory would be absurd. Consumption,
which was feared at first, Is certain to take
place unless something is done to check the
cause. This must be plain to every thought
full mind 1t stands to reason, therefore, that
the only way in which Liver coughs can DO
removed is by restoring the liver to health;
In this connection another fact OF great inn
harnmps known which best De
explained by the relation of an actual event.
Mr.. W, a wealthy cattle dealer Of Colo
RADIO, became greatly reduced in health and
came east TO Chicago for the purpose OF being
cured He consulted Dr. j, one OF the
leading ply sicians OF the country on pulmonlc
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 Dr.
B. After careful examination he was
informed that his lungs were perfectly SOUND,
while his kidneys were in most terrible con-
| dition. He had all the apparent symptoms or
consumption but he was suffering from the
terrible Bright's disease. The symptoms OF
consumption are often the sure indications Oh
