far greater in one or two more serious dlsor-
ders than WI 3 ever known before. More peo-
pie died In lne city of New fofk IN 1857
from Rright's disease of the kidneys, than
from diphtheria, smallpox and typhoid FEVER
all combined! This scarcely seems possible,
but it is true, and when it is sremembered that
less than one-third the actual deaths from
Bright's disease are really reported as such,
the rayages of the malady can be partially
understood.
The immediate query which every reader
will make upon such a revelation of facts,
is: What causes this increase? This is dlf-
fcult question to answer. The nature OF the
climate, the habits of life. the adulterstion
of foods and liquors, all undoubtedly con-
tribute; but no immediate cause can be GER
tainly assigned. Often before the victim
knows it the disease has begun. Its ap-
proaches are SO stealthy and its symptoms
so obscure that they cannot be definitely
foreseen, and are only known by their eff
fects. Auy kidn sy disorder, however slight,
is the first stage of Bright's disease. But 1t
is seldom that kidney disorders can be de-
tected. They do not have any certain symp-
toms. Mysterious WEAKNESS; an unusual
appetite; periodical headaches; occasional
nausea; uncertain pains; loss of vigor; lack
of nerve power; irregularity OF the heartj
disordered daily habits; imperfect digestion
all these and many other symptoms 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 nature of these troubles may be
understood from the fact that Bright's dis
ease is as certain to follow diseased kidneys
as decomposition follows death.
It is high time the Doctors in this land
who have been unable to control kidney
troubles, should be aroused and compelled
to find some remedy, or acknowledge one
already found. The suffering public needs
help t.ud cannot await the tardy action of
any hair-sphtting code of incorrectly formu-
lated theories. If the medical world has no
certain remedy for this terrible disease let
them acknowledge itand seek for one outside
the pale of their profession. For the discov-
cry of this remedy and for its application to
this disease, the people of this city, the peo-
ple of the whole land, not only those who are
suffering, but those who have friends in dan
ger, are earnestly and longingly looking.
The above quotation from the New York
Tribune is causing considerable commotion,
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 frightfu,
endings, and the acknowledged inability of
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 evils above described we have
come to fully believe. Within the past two
years we have frequently seen statements of
parties claiming to have been cured of seri-
GUS kidney troubles even after hope had been
abandoned; but in common with most peo-
pie we have discredited them. Quite recently,
however, number 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 aware that this medicine has an unusual
standing and one emitting 1t to be olassed
above proprietary articles generally; but tnat
it had accomplished SO much in checking
the ravages of kidney disease is not so ger
orally known. Its great worth has been
shown not only by the cures it has effected,
but also because number of base limitations
have appeared in the market, frsudulently
claiming the valuable qualities of the orig
inal Safe Cure. II it were not valuable it
would not be initiated.
The above may seem like an ultra indorse-
ment of popular remedy, but 1t is not one
whit stronger than the facts admit. What
ever assists the world toward health and con-
sequent happiness. should receive the hearty
Endorsement of the press and all friends of
humanity. It is on precisely this principle
that the foregoing statement is made, and 1t
merits the careful consideration of every
thinking reader.
