The Prejudlces Met 6y CanyRsser
for the Pedestal Fund
The BarJho,di pedestal fund is
nearly complete TIE agatue has ar
rived and soon Now York harbor will
be grseed by the most magnificent
colossal statue the world has ever
seen.
"Liberty Enhghtening the W0rldW
What priceless blessing personal
liberty is. II is the shrine at which
people, ground under the heel OF tyr
amy in the older worlds, worship
with ierveucy that Americans can
scarcely realize; LISA principle for
which Nihilists willingly die the death
Of dogs; and tit and proper Is it that
at the very entrance Of the Bay OF
New York this emblemstic statue
should flash = welcome to the world.
The press is entitled 10 the credit OF
this achievement Mr.. Philip Beers,
who has been making Q circuit of .h9
country on behalf OF the pedestal fund,
says that the fund viii certainly be
raised, as the World does not know the
word fail.
Mr., Beers says that he has found
| the most pronounced generosity
among those of foreign birth. They
seem more appreciativo Of liberty
than do our native born. Moreover,
among some strange prejudice seems
20 exist.
"Prejudioe9 In what particular"

personal misfortune illustrated this
prevailing prejudice. | was very i'll,

self back 10 New York, seeking the
best professional treatment. IL so
happened that among my relatives is
a distinguished physician who up
braided me roundly for preaching so
much about my own case. Finally,
with some spirit, / remarked 70 him:
"'Sir, you know that much Of your

the point, for 10 was Bright's disease
OF the kidneys which had Frustrated
me, and the schoolmen admit they
cannot cure IL. Having cured myself,
however, in 1879, aud not having seen
a sick day since, my relative finally
admitted that Warmers safe cure,
which accomplished this result, was
really wonderful preparation. Had
President Rutter, Of the Central Hud-
son used II, am certain he would be
alive to-day, for he could not have been
IN worse condition than FwRs."
81 have found similar preiudices
among all classes concerning even 80
laudable a scheme as this pedestal

Mr.. Beors' experience and the re-
cent death of President Rutter, of the
Central-Hudson railroad, of an ex.
trent kidney disorder, proves that the
physicians have no real power over
such diseases; and indicates the only
course one should pursue II, as the
late DR.. Willard Parker says, head
ache, sickness Of the stomach, dropsical
swellings, backaohe, dark and often
sive fluids, premRturely impaired eye

fatal result, II not promptly arrested.
"Yes, zee, every cent needed for
the pedestal will be raised. OF course
