The Fate That Overcame Little Mao" and
Five Other Governors.

sAS matter OF fact the heart is the least
susceptible to primary disease of any of
our vital organs. 1t is, however, very
much injured by certain long continue ed
| CONCESSIONS of the vital organs, like the
kidneys, liver and stomach. Moreover,
blood filled with uric acid produces a
rheumatic tendency, and is very injurious
to healthful heart ac5ion-it often proves
fatal, and, of course, the uric acid comes
from impaired kidney action.
Roberts, the great English authority,
says that heart disease is chiefly secondary
to some more fatal malady in the blood or
other vital organs. That is, it is not the
original source of the fatal malady.
The WORK of the heart is 20 force blood
into every psrt OF the system. If tho
organs are sound It is an easy task. II
they are at all diseased, it is a very very
hard task. Take as an illustration: Tha

and yet, being deficient in the nerves of
sensation, this cOagested condition Is not
indicated By pain. 1t may exist for years,
unknown even 10 physicians, aud if it does
not result in complete destruction of the
kidneys, the extra work which is forced
upon the heart weakens it every year, and
"a mysterious" sudden death claims
another victim!
This is the true history of "heartdisease,n
so called, which in reality is chiefly
secondary effect of Bright's disease OF the
kidneys, and indicates the universal need
of that renowned specific, Warmers safe
cure.
B. F. Iarrabee, Esq, of Boston, who
was by it so wonderfully cured of Bright's
disease, III 1879, says that with its disap-
pearance went the distressing heart dis.
order, which he then discovered was only
secondary to the renal trouble.
There is a general impression that the
medical profession IS not at fault II II
frankly admits that heart disease is the
cause of death. In other words, cure OF
heart disease is not expected of them!
There may be 30 help for brokers
down, worn out, apoplectic heart, but
there is help for the kidney disorder
which in most cases is responsible for the
heart trouble, and if its use put money and
fame into the treasury of the profession
instead of into the hands of an indepen-
dent Investigator, every graduated doctor
in the world would exclaim of it, as one,
nobler and less prejudiced than his fellows,
