Remote Causes that produce Pain
ful Results Explained.

ern times that has caused and is causing
greater attention than the origin of tor
nadoes Scientists have studied it for
the bene6t of humanity men have in
vestigated it far the welfare of their fam
lilies. 1t has been a vexed subject long
considered, and through all this investi-
cation the cyclone has swept across the
land carrying destruction to scientists as
well as to the innocent dwellers in its
track. One thing, however, is certain
the cause of the cyclone must be
sought far away from the whirling body
of wind itself. Its results are powerful
its cause must also be powerful. Let us
therefore consider few facts. First, the
appearance of cyclone is invariably
preceded by dark spots upon the face of
the sun. These spots, indicating a dis
turbed condition of the solar regions,
necessarily affect the atmosphere of our
earth. An unusual generation of heat
in one part of the atmosphere is certain
to cause a partial vacuum in another
portion. Air must rush in to fill this
vacuum. Hence the disturbances-hence
the cyclone. This theory hnds addi-
tional confirmation in the fact that tor
nadoes come during the day and not at
night. The dark spots upon, the surface
of the sun, whatever they may be, seem
to cause great commotion in the atmos-
phere of the world, and it is almost Ger
tain that the extremely wet weather of
the present season can be accounted for
on precisely this basis. Is it reasonable
to suppose that the marvellous effect of
the sun upon vegetation and life in gen.
eral shall be less than upon the atmos-
phere itself through which its rays
come? The cause is remote, but the eff
feet is here.
After describing some of the terrible
effects of the cyclone the speaker went
on to say
This rule finds its application in nearly
every department of fife. An operator
is in San Francisco-the click of the in
strument manipulated by his fingers, in
New York. The president makes a
slight stroke of the pen in his study at
the White House, and the whole nation
is aroused by the act. An uneasiness
and disgust with everything in life, COM
monty called home-sickness, is felt by
many people, when the cause is to be
found in the distant home thousands of
miles away. An uncertain pain may be
felt in the head. 1t is repeated in other
parts of the body. The appetite departs
and all energy is gone. Is the cause nee
essarily to be found in the headP The
next day the feeling increases. There
are added symptoms. They continue and
become more aggravated. The slight
pains in the head increase to agonies.
The nausea becomes chronic. The heart
grows irregular, and the breathing un-
certain All these effects have a definite
cause and, after years of deep expert
ence upon this subject, do not hesitate
to say that this cause is TO be found in
some arrangement of the kidneys or
liver far away from that portion of the
body in which these effects appear. But
one may say, | have no pain whatever
in my kidneys or liver. Very true.
Neither have we any evidence that there
is tornado on the surface of the sun ;
but it is none the less certain that the
tornado is here, and it is none the less
certain that these great organs of the
body are the cause of the trouble al
though there may be no pain in their
vicinity.
| know whereof / speak, for ! have
passed through this very experience my.
self. Nearly ten years ago, was the
picture of health. weighing more than
200 pounds, and as strong and healthy as
any man | ever knew When felt the
symptoms have above described, they
caused me annoyance, not only by rea-
son OF their aggravating nature but be-
cause l had never felt any pain before.
Other doctors told me | was troubled
with malaria, and | treated myself ac-
cordingly. | did not believe, howe yer,
chat malaria could show such aggravating
symptoms 1t never occurred to me that
analysis would help solve the trouble, as
l did not presume my difficulty was To-
fcated in that portion ofthe body. But |

in this condition for nearly year I;
never free from pain, never for mo-

worse than death, for which | confess

1t was while suffering thus that a
friend advised me 10 make final at

The lecturer then described his means

concluded as foliow1 -.

! am fully confident that four-fiflhs of
the diseases which aftlict humanity
might he avoided were the kidneys and
liver kept in perfect condition. Were
it possible to control the action of the

things that cannot be. But | rejoice TO
