Effecting the Welfare of All
The following remarkable letter
from one of tie leading and best known
scientific writers of the present day is
specially significant. and should be OF
unusual value to all readers who desire
TO keep pace with the march of modern
discoveries and events:
"a general demand for reformation
ia one of the most distinctive character
ist;cs of the nineteenth century. The
common people, as well as the more
enlightened and refined, cry out with
no uncertain voice to be emancipated
from the slavery of conservatism and
superstition which has held the masses
in gross ignorance during large por-
ton of the worlds history, and in the
time of the Dark Ages came near oh.
literating the last glimmer of truth
Dogmatic assertions and blind empiri
cism are losing caste among all classes
of all countries. People are beginning
to think for themselves, and to regard
authority much less than argument
Men and women are no longer willing
that q few individuals should dictate tt
them what must be their sentiments
and opinions. They claim the right to
solve for themselves the great questions
of the day and demand that the general
good of humanity shall be respected
As the result of this general awaken,
ing, we see, on every hand, unmistak.
able evidences of reformatory action
People who, few years ago, endured
suffering the most intense in the name
of duty, now realize the utter foolish
ness OF such course. Men who were
under the bondage of bigoted advisers
allowed their health to depart; suffered
their constitutions to become undeterm
ined and finally died as martyrs to q
false system of treatment. There are
millions of people filling untimely
graves who might have lived to 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 symp
toms of some serious malady and with
out the slightest realization Of the dan
ger that is before the They have oc.
casional headaches lack of appetite
one day and ravenous one the next,
or an unaccountable feeling of weari-
ness, sometimes accompanied by nausea
and attribute all these troubles to the
old idea of "a slight cold or malaria.
1t is high time that people awoke to a
knowledge of the seriousness of these
matters and emancipated themselves
from the professional bigotry which
controls them. When this is done and
when all classes of physicians become
liberal enough to exclude all dogmas,
saye that it is their duty to cure dis
ease as quickly, and as safely as posi-
BILE; to maintain no other position than
that of truth honestly ascertained, and
to endure and recommend any remedy
that has been found useful, no matter
what its origin, there will be no more
quarreling among the doctors, while
there will be great rejoicing throughout
the world"
"I am well aware of the censure that
will be meted out to me for writing this
letter but | feel that cannot be true
to my honest convictions unless | ex-
tend helping hand and endorse all
that know to be good. The extended
publications for the past few years, and
graphic descriptions of different dis.
eases of the kidneys and liver have
awakened the medical profession to the
fact that these diseases are greatly in
creasiDg. The treatment of the doctors
has been largely experimental and many
of their patients have died while they
were casting about for remedy to cure
them"
at is now over two years since my
attention was first called to the use of
a most wonderful preparation in the
treatment of Brigbt's disease of the
kieneys. Patients had frequently asked
me about the remedy and 1 had heard
of remarkable cures effected by it, but
like many others l hesitated to recon-.
mend its use. A personal friend OF
mine had been in poor health for some
time and his application for insurance
on his life had been rejected on account
of Bright's disease Chemical and mi
croscopical examinations of his urine
revealed the presence of large quanti-
ties of albumen and granular tube
casts, which confirmed the correctness
of the diagnosis. After trying all the
usual remedies, directed him to use
this preparation and was greatly sur.
prised TO observe decided improve.
ment within a month, and within four
months, no tube casts could be discov-
cred. At that time there was present
only trace of albumen, and he felt as
he expressed it, perfectly well, and all
through the influence of Warmers Safe
Cure, the remedy he used"
"After this / prescribed this medi.
cine in full doses in both acute and
chronic nephritis, Bright's disease
and with the most satisfactory results.
My observations were neither small in
number nor hastily made. They cx-
tended ever several months and en-
braced 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 fair and patient trial to Warn
er's Safe Cure. In large class of all
mes..s where the blood is obviously in
an unhealthy state, especially where
glandular engagements and inhamma-
tory eruptions exist, indeed in many of
those forms of chronic indisposition in
which there is no evidence of organic
mischief, but where the general health
is depleted, the face sallow, the urine
colored, constituting tbs condition in
which the patient is said to be bilious
the advantage gained by the use of this
remedy is remarkable. In Bright's
disease it seems to act as solvent of
elbumen: to soOthe and heal the in
