THE DANGER OF OVER,- -EEIBRTION.
A Stalwart Man Becomes Weaker Than a
Child and Then Receivers HIS Former



Strength.
Waterloo, N. Y, observer.]
In these days of rowing giants and
athletic heroes, fine physical development
is more observed than ever before since the
time of the Athenian games. A man who
shows the elements of physical power is
looked up to far more than in the days of
our ancestors, possibly because there are
fewer specimens of we'll developed man
hood than then. An emissary of this
paper met magnificent speci-
men Of physical power a
few days since in the person of
DR.. A. W. McNames, of Waterloo. His
muscles, which showed unusual develop
ment were as hard as wood. At his re-
quest the writer sought to pinch him in
the arms or legs, but found it wholly i'm
possible. A realization of what is meant
by an iron man was fully made mani
fest.
Have you always been so stalwart as
this?" inquired the news gatherer. ss xlAA
Not by any means" was the reply.

and active and felt that 1 could accomplish
anything. This feeling so took possession

it on the wagon, but in two
minutes from that time I
was unconscious and remained so for
hours, and when l recovered consciousness

that day began to grow weak and sickly.
l believed that had suffered some Internal
injury, and experienced general debility,
which seemed similar to the effects pro-
duced by malaria. My back was very
weak. I had no appetite, and at times
loathed food. Ny lips were parched and
cracked. My head felt as though it were
entirely open at the top, and it panied me
on the side intensely. In six weeks time 1

dition. was completely discouraged"
What did the doctors say about you:''
almost everything. I consulted no
| less than six different physicians. They
all treated me and none did me any good
At that time was suffering intensely. 1
could not sit upright but was obliged to
rest in cramped uneasy position. I was
| compelled to urinate every five minutes
and passed over three quarts every day.
Twas not living, I was existing.
One night (how well 1 remember itD
my wife had put the children all in bed
when the feeling came over me that I
should live but very short time. Ny
wife and l talked matters all over and
| gave the minutest directions as
| to what she should do after
I was gone. l was not in fighty condi-
tion by any means, for the doctor, on
leaving town the following day, bade me
good bye, saying he never expected to see
me again, for I was suffering with Bright's
disease of the kidneys in its last stages
Within the next few days more than twenty
friends came to bid me good bye. Among
the number was DR.. John L. Clark. He
asked me what 1 had used in the way
of medicines. told him. He then recon-
mended remedy of which 1 had heard
much, but about which Twas skeptical. If
faith were an element of powerit certainly
was lacking in my case
And so you did not try it?'
''On the contrary, I did try it, and to my
surprise it seemed to go to just the spot.
Indeed, it was the most palatable thing l
had taken into my mouth for months. |

And did 1t cure your

Eyes indeed. What was lt?''
''Warner's Safe Cure"
"A proprietary medicine!'
''Of course. What of thai? l suppose
I once had as great a prejudice against ad-
vertised medicines as any one could have.
When was studying medicine at Ann Ar
Dor, Michigan. used to VOW with the rest
of the class that we would fight all such

down to the last hour, however, and bids
his wife and friends good bye, such bigot-
ed prejudices as these all vanish, I can as
sure you and any remedy that can cure is
| gladly welcomed.''
And how have you been since them?
Gas we'll or better than before"
DO you still exert your strength?''
Certainly. But do not orer-exert, as
formerly. Ny strength is increasing ev-
cry day, and my health is number ore. I
know that my life was saved by Warmers
Safe Cure, and believe ssit is the best
medicine that was ever compounded by
any chemist or physician. l am willing
the doctors should sneer al me for such a
statement if they choose, but l have prov
en- its truth, and am prepared to stand
by it,
The above experience should be of great
value to all who are suffering. 1t shows
the deceptive nature of this terrible mala-
dy: that all symptoms are common to it
and that there is but one way by which it
can be absolutely avoided.
