Chap. II. "Overworked;" goes to Europa
 Chap III. "Has Rheumatism: :n goes to Ems
 Chap. W. Has a row with his Doctor 
 The above chapters, Mir. Editor, find in q book recently published by an anonymous author. have read deal of sarcasm in my day, but never read anything equal to the sarcasm herein contained. l suspect the experience portrayed is personal one in short, the author intimates as much on page Sl. Let me give you a synopsis:
 Malaria as it states, is the cloak with which superficial physicians cover up null titude of i'll feelings which they do not under stand, and do not much care to investigate. It is also cover for such diseases as they cannot cure. When they advise their pa- tient to travel or that he has over worked and needs rest and is probably suf- fering from malaria, it is a confession of ig- norance or of inability. The patient goes abroad The change is tonic and for time he feels better. Comes home. Pickle appe- tite, frequent headaches, severe colds, cramps, sleeplessness, irritability, tired feelings and general unftness for business are succeeded in due time by alarming attacks of rheuma. tism which fits about his body regardless of all human feelings.
 It is muscularf-in his back. Articular- in his joints. Inhammatory, myl how he fears it will fly to his heartl Now of he goes to the springs. The doctor sends him there, of course, to get we'll: at tho same time he does not really want him to die on hls | handsl
 That would hurt his businessl
 Better for few days Returns After a | while neuralgia transhxes him. He bloats, cannot breathe; has pneumonia; cannot walk; cannot sleep on his left side, is fretful; | very nervous and irritable, is pale and habby; has frequent chils and levers; everything about him seems to go wrong; becomes sus- l picious; musters up strength and demands to | know what is killing himl
 ''Great heavenr' he cries, "why have you kept me so long in ignorancei'
 l Because said the doctor, '1 read your fate i've years ago. thought best to keep l you comfortable and ignorant of the facts He dismisses his doctor, but too latel | His fortune has all gone to fees l But him, what becomes of himl | The other day well known Wall street banker said to me, 'it is really astonish shing how general Bright's disease Is becoming. Two of my personal friends are now dying | of it. But it is not incurable, 1 am certain, for my nephew was recently cured when his physicians said recovery was impossible. 1 The case seems to me to be a wonderful one 2 This gentleman formerly represented his gov ernment in foreign country. He knows, appreciates and declares the value of that preparation, because his nephew, who is q son of Danish Vice-Consul Schmidt, was pro nounced incurable. when the remedy, War. ner,s safe cure, was begun. "Yes,n sail his father, 'I was very skeptical, but since tax. ing the remedy, the boy is welln
 1regret to note that ex- President Arthur 1. said to be a victim of this terrible disease He ought to live but the probabilities Ars that since authorized remedies cannot curs him, his physicians will not advise him tS save his life, as SO many thousands havs done, by the use of Warmers safe cure whici Gen. Christiabsen, at Drexel, Morgan Co.'s told me he regarded "as a wonderful remedy.n
 We'll, suspect the hero of the book cure himself by the same meanR The inierna evidence points very strongly to this conclu sion.
 I cannot close my notice of this book bet ter than by quoting his advice to his readers 'f, my friend, you have such an experi ence as l have portrayed, do not put you trust in physicians to the exclusion of othe remedial agencies. They have no monopol, over disease and Ipersonally know that manl of them are so very 'conscientiousi that then would far prefer that their patients should g, to heaven direct from their powerless hand than that they should be saved 10 earth by the use of any 'unauthorized' meanSa
 And that the authors condemnation is bo- true, how many thousands duped, and ye rescued, as he was, can personally testifyi
