DROPPED DEAD"
The Fate That Overcame Little Mao" al
Five Other Governors,

1ne rate That Overcame Little Mac and
Five Other Governors.
Apropos. of the sudden death Of General
George B. Mcclellan, we note that the
New York Sun points out the singular
fact that Governor Dewitt Clinton, Gov
ernor Silas Wright, Governor William l..
Marcy, Governor and Chief Justice SAN
ford E. Church, and Governor R. E. Fem
ton, all of New York State, dropped dead
of heart disease, n under quite identical
CircumStdnces-edch of them dying Dhlte

Engineer, is awful in it's impressivenessl
Few persons like to count their own
pulse-beats, and fewer persons still enjoy
marking the 'thub-thub" of their own
heart.
What If it should skip a beat!w
As a matter of fact the heart is the least
susceptible to primary disease of any of
much injured by certain l-ong-continued
congestions of the vital organs, like the
, kidneys, liver and stomach. Moreover,
blood filed with uric acid produces a
| rheumatic tendency, and is very injurious
to healthful heart action-it often proves
fatal, and, of course, the uric acid comes
from impaired kidney action.
Roberts, the great English authority,
saws 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 to force blood
into every part Of the system. If the
organs are SOUND 1t is an easy task. If
they are at all diseased, it is a very, very
hard task. Take as an illustration: The
kidneys are very subject to congestion
and yet, being deficient in the nerves of
sensation, this congested condition is not
| indicated By pain. 1t may exist for years,
unknown even 10 physicians, and 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
Ia mysterious" sudden death claims
another victim!
rIThis is the true history of s'heartdisease,'
so called, which in reality is chiefly a
secondary effect of Bright's disease of the
kidneys, and indicates the universal need
of that renowned specific, Warmers safe
cure.
B. F. narrabee, Esq, of Boston, who
was by it so wonderfully cured of Bright'a
disease, in 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 if il
frs nkly admits that heart disease is the
ca ise of death. In other words, a cure Of
heart disease is not expected of them!
There may be DO help for a broken
down, worn out, apoplectic heart, but
there is a help for the kidney disorder
which in most cases is responsible for thu
heart trouble, and if its use put money ano
fame into the treasury of the profession
instead of into the hands of an indepen.
