"Tbe patton has been horrifed at the burn

enty lives were lost. This event carried ter

had tue came DISASTROUS results 70 life and
limb come silently they would have been u1-
noticed, not only by the people OF The land
but also by the very coo'a unity Ia which
they occurred. FAta. events Of FAR worse
nature have taken place iu this very city,
but thsv have attracted no attention. nor
would they now dii net the Bureau of Vital
Statistics bring them to our notice. Figures
do not lie. whatever else may be uncertain,
and the report On the deaths of this city is \
startling comment on itS ife During tho
past year the enormous Increase Of certain
msladies is simply appalling. While the to.
tai number Of deaths has diminished, and the
death rate en- most diseases has decreased
still it is far greater in one or two serious dis

people died ia the city of New York in 1882
from Bright's disease Of the kidneys than
from diphtheris, smallpox and typhoid fever
all combined. This scarcely seems possible,
but It is true, and when il is remembered that
less than one-third the actual deaths from
B.ight's disease are really reported as such,
the ravsges of the malady can be partially
understood

What causes this Increase! This is diff.

found where, possibly, least expected, and
that there is q specific for The evils above dc.

of prominent and well-knOWn men have
come out voluntarily and stated over their

Liver CuIe. Mo5t psepie hsve been aware

not only by the cures it has effected, but also
because a number Of base imitations have a.
