Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
"Dr. Lincoln who was at the funeral of
"Ex-Secretary Frelinghuysen, says Ex-'
president Arthur looks very unwell. He
sis suffering from Bright's disease. Dur
Sing the past year it has assumed very
aggravated FORM"
That telegram Is act Nv. of a drama writ
ten by Ex-President Arthur's physicians
In act I. he was made to appear in "Mala
ria, of which all the country was tolG
when he went to Florida.
In act II. he represented q tired man
worn down, walking the sands at Old Point
Comfort and looking eastward over the At
lantic toward Europe for longer rest.
The curtain rolls up for act III. upon the
distinguished actor affected with melan-
choly from Bright's disease, while act w.
discovers him with the disease Tin an aggra-
waited form, suffering intensely (which is
unusually and about to take q sea voyage"
Just such as this is the plot Of many
dramas by play-wnghts of the medical pro-
fession. They write the first two or three
acts with no conception of what their char
acter will develop in the final one.
They have not the discernment for trac-
ing in the early, what the latter imperson-
atoms will be. Not one physician in e
hundred has the adequate microscopic and
chemical appliances for discovering
Brights disease in its early stages, and
when many do finally comprehend thar

death occurs, they will, to cover up their

have been caused by ordinary ailments,
whereas these ailments are really results of
Bright's disease of which they are uncon-
scious victims.
Beyond any doubt, 80 per cent of al
deaths except from epidemics and accident
result from diseased kidneys or ivers. l

friends too intelligent to be easily deceived,

now the fashionable assignment of tn;
cause of death.
But all the same named, right CT named
wrong, this fearful scourge gathers themi1!
While it prevails among persons of seden-
tary habits, -lawyers, clergymen, congress
also plays great havico among
farmers, day-laborers and mechanics,
though they do not suspect it. because
their physicians keepit from them, If in
deed they are able to detect it.
It sweeps thousands of women and
children into untimely graves every year
The health gives away gradually, the
strength is variable the appetite tickle, the
yigor gets less and less. This isn't malaria
it is the beginning of kidney disease and
will end-who does not know how?
No, nature has not been remiss. Inde-
pendent research has given an infallible
remedy for this COM non disorder, bnt OF
course the bigoted physicians will not use
Warmers Safe Cure, because it is private
affair andcuts up their practice by restoring
the health of those who have been inVllids

The new saying show common Bright's

would say, it sounds ''stupid"-especially
stupid" since this disease is readily de-

specialists of this disease, But the com.

drugs precribed by the old code of treat

Ex-President Arthur's case is not singular
it is typical of every such case. "He is

there is almost no suffering. He
may recover, if he will act independently
Of his physicians. The agency named has
cured thousands of persons even in the ex
IRENE stages is to-day the msinstay of the
health of hundreds of thousands. 1t is an
unfortunate fact that physicians will not
admit there is any virtue outside their own
sphere, but as each school denies virtue to
Ill others, the people act on their OWE
Judgment and accept things by the record
IF merit they make.
The facts are cause for alarm, but there is
hope in prompt and independent
action.
