Missouri river was the eastern boundary OF
the Indian and buffalo district, and the
prajries were covered with what was called

The Epidemic OF Crime.

Whence comes this epidemic OF sui
cides and murders? Recent discussions
have named several causes. Hon. C..
s III. Reeve, OF Indiana, charges it to inf
del teaehings-holding that bopelessness
OF future state cripples fortitude for
bearing LIES ills. Another declares
a.. suffering from the universal business de-
preston the cause. A third writer at
tributes it to increasing insanity, ply
stefan thinks much OF the tendency is
inherited, while temperance advocates
= lay the responsibility upon strong drink.
.ag Free-.hinkers have committed suicide,
e but so have orthodox churchmen Fl
.nancial straits have beset many, but the
wealthy, have also taken their life.
Insanity and dissipation have preceded
suicides and family murders. "
One feature common to almost every
such tTime challenges attention. Well
nigh every report OF suicide and family
murder mentions the perpetrator as hav-
ing ''for some time been subject to mel
ancholy." Whence comes this? ALI
recognized medical authorities tell us
that the fire which consumes the brain
is always kindled by arrangements of
digestion that good digestion is impos.
sible without pure blood, and pure blood
is never known when the liver and kid
neys are out OF order. Under such
circumstances, a preventive should be
sought, and for this Warmers Safe Cure
is sovereign--a fact conceded by the
best authorities in the land, anC it is
especially commended by the celebrated
DR.. Dio Lewis Rochester Democrat.
