tics of the nineteenth century. The COM
mon people, as we'll as the more en-
hghtened aud refined, cry out with no
uncertain voice to be emancipated from
the slavery Of conservatism and super
stition which has held the masses in
gross ignorance during q large Dor
ton of the worlds history, and in the
time of the Dark Ages came
near obliterating the last elimmer
of truth. Dogmatic I assertions and
blind empircism are losing caste among
all classes Of all countries. People are be-
ginning to think for themselves, and to
regard authority much less than argu-
ment. Men and women are no longer
willing that few individuals should die
tate to them what must be their senti-
ments and opinions. They claim tt e right
to solve for themselves the great qies-
tons OF the day and demand that the gem
eral good ofhumanity shall be respected.
AS the result of this general awakening,
we see, on every hand, unmistakable evil
dences of reformatory action. Peo-
pie who, a few years ago, endured suffer-
ing the most intense in the name of duty,
now realize the utter foolishness of such
a course. Men who were under the bond
age of bigoted advisers allowed their
health to depart; suffered their constitu-
EtiOns to become undermined and finally
died as mar.yrs to false system of treat
ment. There are millions of people fill
ing untimely graves who might have
lived to a green old age had their orig
lnal troubles been taken III time or prop
erly treated. There are thousands Of peo-
pie to day thought.essly enduring the first
symptoms OF some serious malady and
without the slightest realization of the
danger that is before them. They have
occasional headaches;@a lack of appe-
tite one day and a ravenous one the next,
or an unaccountable feeling of WEAKNESS,
sometimes accompanied by nausea, and
attribute all these troubles to the old
idea OF a slight oold'or malaria. 1t is
high time that people awoke to a knowl-
edge of the seriousness of these matters
and enlancipated themselves from the
professional bigotry Which coatrols them
When this is done and when all class of
physicians become liberal enough to ex-
clude all dogmas, save that tits their duty
to cure disease as quickly, and as safely
as possible; to maintain no other position
than that Of truth honestly ascer-
tanned, and to endorse 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" .>>@
II ana 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 I extend a.
helping hand and endorse all that 7
know to be good. The extended publ
cations for the past few years, and graph
ic descriptions Of different diseases ofthe
kidneys and liver have awakened the
medical profession to the fact that these
diseases are greatly increasing. The
treatment of the doctors has been large
ly experimental and many OF their pa
tents have died while they were casting
about for remedy to cure them"
1T is now over two years since my at
tentiou was first called to the use OF most
wonderful preparation in the treatment
of Bright's disease of the kidneys. Pa
tients had frequently asked me about the
remedy and had heard of remarkable
cures eGec: ed by it, but like many 9TH
ers hesitated to recommend it's use. "A
personal friend of mine had been
in poor health for some time
and his application for insur-
ance on his life had been rejected on
account of Br;ght's disease. Chemical
anu microscopical examinations of his
urine revealed the presence of large
quantities Of albumen and granular tube
casts, which confirmed the correctness
of the diagnosis. After trying all the
usual remedies, I directed him to use
this pre- paration and was greatly SUR
prised to observe q decided improve
ment within a month, and within four
mon1hs no tube casts could be discovered.
At that time there was present only
trace of albumen. and be felt, as he ex:
pressed it,, perfectly we'll, and all

IN full doses in both acute and chrome
nephritis, [Brlght's diseased and with
the most satisfactory results. My OBJ
nor hastily made. They extended over
several months and embraced a large
number of cases which have proved SO
satisfactory to my mind that would
earnestly urge opon my professional
brethren the importance of giving far
and patient trial to Warmers Safe Cure.
In large class of ailments where the
blood is obviously in an unhealthy state,
especially where g}andular engorgements
and intlammatory eruptions exist, indeed
in many of those forms of chronic indis-
position in which there is no evidence
Of organic mischief but where the gen.
eral health is depleted, the face sallow,
the urine colored, constituting the con-
dition 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 rs q solv-
ent of albumen, to soothe and heal the
inhamed membranes; to wash out the
epthelial debris which blocks up the
tubuli uriniferi and to prevent a destruc-
tive metamorphOsis OF tissue" r.
BELONGING as do to a branch Of the
profession that believes that no one
school of medicine knows all the truth
regarding the treatment of disease, and
being independent enough to select any
remedy that will relieve my patients,
without reference to the source from
whence it comes, am glad to acknowl-
edge and commend the merits of this
remedy thus frankly. s.,,}l>., 5.:..s, n
