or realize what ails them, and I am sorry
to say chat too few physicians do either.O

but try to help the lungs. We should not

neys, the source of most of these ailments.n

Precisely. Thousands of so.called dis

It's many forms. 1t is a Hydra-headed
monster and the slightest symptoms should
strike terror to every one who has them. I
can look back and recall hundreds Of
deaths which physicians declared at the
time were caused by paralysis, apoplexy,
heart-disease, pneumonia, malarial fever

now were caused by Bright's d~isease.n

this matter and think I am helping others
to see the facts and their possible danger
also. Why, there are no end of truths
bearing on this subject. If you want to

himself: He was sick the same as I, and

He has made a study of this subject and
can give you more facts han I can. Go,
too, and see DR.. baltimore, the chemist, at

good day and called OH Mr.. Warner at his
establishment on Exchange street. At first
Mr.. Warner was inclined to be reticent,
but learning that the information desired
was about the alarming increase of Bright's
disease, his manner changed instantly and
he spoke very earnestly:
1t is true that Bright's disease has in
creased wonderfully, and we find, by relia-
BILE statistics, that in the past ten years it's
growth has been 250 per cent. Look at the
prominent men it has carried off: Everett,
Sumner, Chase, Wilson, Carpenter, Bishops
Haven and Peck, and others. This is ter
rible, and shows a greater growth than
that of any other known complaint. It
should be plain to every one that some-
thing must be lone to check this increase
or there is no knowing where it may end"

come to my notice. A prominent professor
in a New Orleans medical college was lect-
uring before his class on the subject of
Bright's disease. He had various fluids
under microscopic analysis, and was show.
ing the students what the indications OF
this terrible malady were. In order to
show the contrast between healthy and
unhealthy fluids, he had provided a vial,
the contents of which were drawn from
his own person. And now, gentlemen
