IeetinE the welfare of All.
The following remarkable letter from one
of the leading and best known scientific
writers of the day is specially significant,
and should be Of unusual value to all read
ers who desire to keep pace with the march
of modern discoveries and events:
"A general demand for reformation is one
Of the most distinctive characteristics Of the
nineteenth century. The common people,
as well as the more enlightened andreine6,
cry out with no uncertain voice to be
emsncipated from the slavery of
conservatism and superstition which
has held the masses in gross .ig'
nOrsnce during large portion
Of the worlds history, and in the time of
tie Dark Ages came near obliterating the
last glimmer OF truth. DOgmatic assertions
and blind empiricisms are losing caste
among all classes of all countries. People
are beginning TO think for themselves, and
to regard authority much less than argu-
uent. Men and women are no longer
willing that 3 few individuals should die
tate TO them what must be their sentiments
and opinions. They claim the right to
solve for themselves the great questions
OF the day and dsmand that the general
good of humanity shall be respected. As
the result of this general awakening, We
see, on every hand, unmistakable evil
denCes OF refOrmatOry action. People who,
a few years sgo, endured suffering the
most intense in the name of duty,
now realize the utter foOliShness OF
such a course. Men who We're under tue
bondage Of bigoted advisers allowed their
health to depart; suffered their constitu-
T. ODs TO become undermined and finally
ed as martyrs to false system of treat
ment There are millions of people filling
untmely graves who might have lived ID
a green old age had their original troubles
been taken in time or properly treated.
There are thousands of people to day,
thoUghtleSsly enduring the first symptoms
OF some serious malady and without the
slightest realization Of the danger that is
before them. They have occasional heal
aches; lack OF appetite one day and 8
r.vs nous one the next, or an uuaccount.
bic feeling of WEAKNESS, some-
times accompanied by nausea, aud
sttr butte all these troubles to the old
les of a slight cold or malaria. 1t is high
time that people awoke to knowledge OF
the seriousness of these matters and eman-
cipated themselves from the professional
bigotry which controls them. When this
is done and when all classes of physicians
b; come liberal enough to exclude all dog
mas, save that it is their duty to cure dis
ease as quickly and as safely as possible;
to maintain no other position than that OF
ruth honestly ascertained, and to endorse
and recommend any remedy that has been
.oUnd useful, no matter what its origin,
there will be no more qusrreling among
he doctors, while there will be great re-
jojciBg throughout the world"
81 am well aware Of the censure that will
be melted out to me for writing this letter
but feel that | cannot be true to my
honest convictions unless l extend help
ing hand and endorse all that | know to
be LOod. The extended publications for
the past few years, and graphic deScrlp-
tiUns Of Different diseases OF the kidneys
ard liver have awakened the medical pro-
feSS'On 10 the iaCt that these diseases are
greatly increasing. The treatment OF the
doctors his been largely experimental and
mary # Their patients have died while
they were casting about fOc remedy to
cure them
1T is now over two years since my at
ttutiOu was first called To the use OF
most wonderful preparation in the treat
menL Of BTights disease OF the kidneys.
Patients had frequently asked RE about
the remedy and l had heard Of remarkable
cures effected by it, but like many others
| hesitatel to recommend its use. \ per
sOnal friend OF mine had been in poor
health for some time, and his application
for insurance on his life had been rejected
en- account of Brights disease. Chemical
and microscopicAl examinations OF his
urine revealed the presence OF large guam
titles Of albumen and granular tube casts,
which confirmed the correctleSs OF the di-
agnosis. After trying all the usual RENE
dies, directed him to use this preparation
aud was greatly surprised to observe a de-
cided improvement within a month, and
within four months no tube casts could be
discovered At that time there was pres
emit only trace Of albumen, and he felt,
as be expressed il, perfectly WE'LL aud all
through The influence OF Warmers Safe
Cure, the remedy he used"
After :his prescribed this medicine in
nj Sos.- IN both acute and chronic neccSS-
ritis CBrisht's disease) and with the Most
satisfactory results. My observations were
neither small nor hastily made. They ex-
tended over several months and embraced
large number of cases which have proved
so satisfactory to my mind that l would
earnestly urge upon my professional
brethren the Importance Of giving a fair
and patient trial to Warmers Safe Cure.
In large class of ailments where the
blood is obviously IN an unhealthy state,
especially where glsndular engagements
and intiammatory eruptions exist indeed
in msny of those forms Of chronic indispo-
sitions in which there is no evidence OF or
gapic mischief, but where the gen.
ersl health is depleted, the face slilow, the
urine colored, constituting the condition
in which the patient is said to be bilious,
the advantage gained by the use OF this
remedy is remarkable. In Brights disease
it seems to act as 3 solvent OF albumen; to
soothe and heal the inlamed membranes;
TO wash out the epithelial debris which
blocks up the h,bpI u.iRJtri, and to pre-
vent u destructive metamOrphosis OF It's

Belonging as I do to 8 branch of the
profession that believes that no one schoo!
of medicine knows all the truth regarding
the treatment of disease, and being indie.
pendent enough to select any remedy that
will relieve my patients, without reference
TO the source from whioh il comes, l am
eIsd to acknowledge and commend the
merits Of this re medy thus frankly.
