Would You Believe Ii.

Natures great remedy, Kidney Wort, has
cured many obstinate cases of piles This most
distressing malady generally arises from con-
stipation and bad condition of the bowels.
Kidney-Wort acts at the same time as a cathar-
tic and healing tonic, removes the cause,
cures the disease and promotes a healthy state
OF the affected organs. James r. Meyer, car
riage Man'fr, of Myerstown, Pa, testifes to
the great healing powers of KidneyWort, hav-
ng been cured by it of very bad case of piles
which for years had refused to yield to any
other remedy.
A French physician once sent his man with
box of pills to patient, and a hamper con-
tanning six live pallets to be left at the house
OF friend. Unluckily the messenger bungled
over his errand, and took the hamper to the
patient and the pills to his masters friend. I'm.

DR.. DGUid Kennedy, Rondont, n. Y.
DEAR SIR: think it is due to you that should
make the following statement, ana make it volun-
tarily and willingly On the 4th day of juno, 1881,
was taken with what was called paralysis of the
bowels. The seizure was unexpected and terrible.
The stomach and other organs seemed to sympathize
with 1t and to have lost all power of action. For
long time my life despaired OF, but at length
recovered SO far to be able to Tide out. By the
advice of my physician 1 visited Poland Springs
Vt.), hoping to benefit from the waters. But they
did me no good. Neither were the best physicians
of Lowell and Boston, whom consulted, able to az
ford me more than transient relief. 1 gained no
strength and my case appeared almost hopeless. In
the Fall friend advised me to try KENNEDY'S
FAVORITE REMEDY, and although opposed to
patent medicines, made the trial. To make long
story short-FAVORITE REMEDY, in my opinion,
saved my life. consider il the best preparation ia
the world for stomach difficulties, well of the
Liver and other organs. am glad to say it is in
general use among the Z. r. men in this vicinity.
Yours, etc., A. j. CLIFFORD.
Mr.. Clifford is the Master Mechanic of the Lowell
division of the Boston & Lowell Railroad, and his
illness and recovery are known to many who can
testify to the facts in this letter.
Use this medicine for all diseases of the Blood,
Kidneys Liver Stomach Bowels, and Skin. 1t
may save you or yours from pain and death.

Bordsr-Land Insanity.


From the Herald Of Health.
The doctrine that the border land of
insanity is very narrow one, and that
most sane people are near the line, has
been extensively taught during the last
quarter Of q century. Now the truth is,
there is broad line between sanity and
insanity; and that call men are mad, }" is
not true in any reasonable sense. There
are, however, . large number Of per.
sons who have an insane impulse to do
some wicked deed-to kill themselves
or somebody else. to jump into tho sea
If on vessel, to throw themselv Ives from
height il on top of q building or on the
border of q peecipice. Only recently,
while listening to lecture on insanity
by one of the most noted neurologists
In New York, he stated an experience
Of his own. and said that once while Wis.
iting some romantic scenery in the great
West, he desired to look down Q deep
precipice. He lay down fiat on his face,
close to the edge Of it, and gazed into the
depths below. To his utter amazement
he was seized with desire to throw
himself down the abyss, and lost the
power OF restraint. He called vigorous
" to bis friends near to drag him ba.k,
and this alone saved him from the deed.
While, however, such impulses are fire..
quent, we believe they do not trouble
the peace Of mind ofthe majority. Such
as have them should sire ngthen their
nervoas systems by culture, strengthen
their wills. and take good care of their
brains.
