As q 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-con-
tinued congestions of the vital organs,
like the kidneys, liver and stomach.
Moreover, blood filled with uric acid pro-
duces rheumatic tendency, and is very
injurious to heathful heart action, 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 second
ary 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. Ii the or
gans are sound it is an easy task. If they
are at all diseased, it is a very, very hard
task. Take as an illustration: The kid
neys are very subject to congestion and
yet, being deficient in the nerves of sen
sation, this congested condition is not an
dicated By pain. 1t may exist for years,
unknown even to 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-a mysterious" sudden death
claims another victim!
This is the true history of "heart dis
ease,"-so called, which in reality is
chiefly secondary effect of Bright's dis
ease Of the kidneys, and indicates the uni
versal need of that renowned specific,
Warmers Safe Cure.
B. F. Larrabee, Esq, of Boston, who
was by it 40 wonderfully cured of Bright's
disease, in 1879, says that with its disap-
pearance went the distressing heart dis
order, which he then discovered was on
ly secondary to the renal trouble
There is a general impression that the
medical profession Is not at fanlt if it
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 no help for broken
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 profess
sion instead of into the hands of an indie
pendent investigator, every graduated
doctor in the world would exclaim of it,
as one, nobler and less prejudiced than
his fellows, once exclaimed "It is a
God-send to humanity!"
What therefore must be the public es-
innate of that bigotry and want of frank
ness which forbids in such cases because
forsooth it is proprietary article) the
use of the one effective remedial agency
of the age? rt
"Heart disease" indeed Why not
call such things by their right names I?
Why not?
"Dead without moments warning.'
This likewise is an untruth! Warnings
are given by the Thousand. Physicians
are "not surprised" They expected it."
They know what the end will be, but the
victim p" oh no, he mustn't be told, you
know, it would only frighten him, for
there is no help, you know, for it!
The fate that attended Little Mac !"
and the FIVE governors is not royal and
exclusive one-it threatens every one
who fails to heed the warnings of nature
as set forth above.
