A SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
A New and Most Important Theory on Oh

New and Most ImPorfa,rI Tn s a5s D nn n'
If any one had informed Queen Elizabeth
in her palmiest days that she could have been
seated in her palace in London and conversei
with Sir Walter Raleigh In his North Caro-
lima home; receiving a reply from him within
nm hours time, she would have declared 1t TO
be miracle. And yet, had they lived IN the
present day, this apparent miracle would
most readily have been witnessed and not
seem at all strange or unnatural. The truth
Is; new principles are coming Into existence,
and the operation of many laws unknown III
the past is being fully understood In the
present. In no way does this fact come more
forcibly to the mind than in the care and
treatment of the human body. Millions OF
people have died in past ages from some IN
significant or easily controlled cause which
is thoroughly understood now and readily
handled. Consumption during the entire past
has been considered an incurable disease.
And yet it is demonstrated that it has been
and can be cured, even after it has had long
run, DR.. Felix Oswald has just contributed
a notable article on this subject to ths Popu-
lar Science Monthly. He regards consump-
tion as pulmonary scrofula. The impurities
of the blood produce constant irritation IN
the lungs, thus destroying their delicate It's
sues and causing death. His theory shows
conclusively that consumption is blood dis
ease. It has its origin primarily in deranged
condition of the kidneys or liver, the only two
organs of the body, aside from the lungs, that
purify the blood. When the kidneys or liver
arc diseased they are in sore or lacerated
state, which communicates poison to every
ounce of blood that passes through them.
This poisonous blood circulates through the
system and comes to the lungs, where the
poison is deposited, causing decomposition
In the finely formed cells of the lungs. Any
diseased part of the body has communicating
power, and yet the blood, which is the life Of
the system, is brought into direct contact
with these poisoned organs, thus carrying
contagion to all parts of the body. Bishop
Jesse Z. Peck, d. D., LID, whose death has
been so recently regretted, is reported to have
died of pneumonia, which medical authori-
ties affirm indicates a diseased condition Of
the kidneys. 1t is well known, moreover,
that for several years he had been the victim
of severe kidney trouble and the pneumonia
which finally terminated his life was only the
last result of the previous blood poisoning.
The deadly matter which is left in the lungs
by the impure blood clogs up and finally
plished rapidly it is called pneumonia or quick
consumption; when slowly, consumption, but
in any event it is the result of impure blood,
caused by diseased kidneys and liver.
These are facts of science, and vouched for
by all the leading physicians Of the day. They
show the deslrabllty-nay, the necessity, of
keeping these most important organs in Per
feet condition, not only to insure health, but
also to escape death. 1t has been fully shown,
to the satisfaction of nearly every unpreju-
diced mind, that Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure is the only known remedy that
can cure and keep i'll health the great blood
purifying organs of the body. 1t acts directly
upon these members, healing all ulcers which
may have formed in them, and placing them
in condition to purify and not poison the
blood. This is no idle statement nor false
theory. Mr.. w. G. Beach, foreman of the
Buffalo (N.Y.) Rubber Type Foundry, was
given up to die by both physicians and friends.
For four years he had a terrible cough, &C
by night sweats, chills, and all the
we'll known symptoms. He spent season
South and found no relief. He says: 81
finally concluded to try Warmers Safe Cure,
and in three months gained twenty pounds,
my lost energy and my health was
fully restored" The list could be prolonged
but enough has been said to prove
10 every sufferer from pulmonc troubles that
there is no reason 10 be di 'couraged in the
east, and that health can be restored.
