F7xures do net he, i" Whatever else May be
uncertain, and the report on the deaths of
tins city Is startling comment on its life.
during the past tear the enormous increase
OF certain maladses is simaly appalling.
While the total number of Seaths has d.
minished, and the death rats on most dis
eas es has decreased, still it is far greater il
one CT two serious disorders than was ever
knows before. More people di ID in the csey

and typhoid fever ell combined This
scarcely seems possible, but it n true and
when it, is remembered that less than one
third theactual deaths from Brights disease
are really reported such, the ravaees of
the maladS can be partially undercseod
Inc immediate query which every reader
will make gpon such q revelation offacts Is:
What causes this increase This is di-4cult-
question tcrnswer. The nature of the cli-
mate, the habits of life, the adulteration of
foods and Liquors, all undoubtedly contrib
utei but no immediate cause can be certain
ly assigned. Often before the victim Knows
1t the disease has begun. rs approaches are
so stealthy AID its sym ptoms so obscure that
they can not De definitely foreseen, and are
only known 5y their effects. ANY kidney
disorder however slight, is the first stase.of-
br1gnts dlsea5e. But 1T is seldom that kid
ney disorders 1an be detected They donot
have any certain symptoms. Mysterious
WEAKNESS, an unusual appetite, periodical.
headaches, occasional nausea, uncertsin
pains, loss OF vigor, lack of nerve power. ir-
regularity OF the heart disordered daily
habits, imperfect digestion-all these and
many other synptoms are the indications Of
kidney disorder. even though there may be
no pain in the region of the kidneys or in
that portion OF the body. The serious IA
ture OF these troubles may be understood
from the fact that Bright's disease is as GER
tain to follow diseased kidneys as decompo-
sition follows death.
1t is high time the doctors in this land who
have been unable 10 control kidney troubles,
should be aroused and compelled to find
some remedy, or acknowledge one already
found. The suffering public needs help and
can not await tho tardy action of any hair
splitting code or incorrectly formulated
theories. III the medical world has no Ger
tain remedy for this terrible disease, Let them
acknowledge 1t and seek for one outside the
pale of their profession. For the discovery
OF this remedy and. for its application to
tins disease, the people of this city. the peo-
pie OF the whole land, not only those who
are suffering, but those who have friends in
danger, are earnestly and longingly looking.
The above quotesion from the New York
Tribune is causing. considerable commetion,
as it seems to lift the cover from subject
that has become of.'National Importance.
The alarming increase of kidney diseases.
their insidious beginnings and frlghtfalend-
.ings, and the acknowledged inability of
physicians tn successfully cope with them,
may well awaken the greatest dread of every
one who has the slightest symptoms 1t is
fortunate, however. that the surest relief is
often found where, possibly, least expected;
and that there is specific for the evilsabove
described we have. come to fullyvbelieve.
Within the past two years we have frequent
1ly seen statements of parties claiming to
have been cured Ct serious kidney troubles,
even after hope had been abandoned; but,
common with mcst people we have discred-
tied them. Quite recently, however, a num-
Der of prominent and well-known men have
come out voluntarily and stated over their
signatures that they were completely cured
by the use of Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure. Most people have been awats
that this medicine has an unusual standing.
and one entitlirgi 1t to be classed above pro-
prieary articles generally; but that it had
accomplished SO much in checking the raw
ages of kidney disease is not so. generally
known. Its great worth has been shown, not
only by the cures it has ELECTED, but also
because q number of base limitations .ave
appeared in the market, frsudulently claim
ing the valuable qualities of the original
Safe Cure. II it were not valuable, it would
not be imitased.
The above may seem ikean ultra indOrse-
ment of popular remedy, but it is not one
whit stronger than the facts admit. What
ever assists the world toward health and
consequent happiness should receive the
hearty Endorsement of the press and ala
friends of humanity. 1t is on precisely
this prineple that the foregoing statement
is made, and ii merits the careful considea-
ton of. every thinking reader.
