''Man is the greatest Of all chemical labor
atories. Magnify the smallest cell of the body
and what a factory is spread before the eyes
countless chambers in which are globes of
air, masses of solid matter, globules Of dying
liquid; flash comes and the whole is con-
sumed and needful heat is carried into every
part of the system Electrical forces also
generate and are conveyed TO the brain, the
muscles and the various nerve centres
"In another set of a million chambers we
see various gasses and vapors. BY chemical
action these are changed and purified in the
lungs and the skin. The blood we often say
is great living river. In its current are
masses which the air in the lungs did not af-
feet: blocks Of chalk; slabs of tartar; pieces
of bone-ash, strings of albumen; drops of
molasses and lines of alcohol. How are
these waste masses disposed Off Begin
where you will in this great stream, you
must come to the purifying places of the sys-
tenn. Here is all activity and an invisible
force reaches out into the stream, seizes and
carries this mass of waste into vast trenches
thence into smaller reservoir, and finally
into larger reservoir, which regularly dis
charges its contents
This separation of lime, uric acid and other
waste material from the blood, without rob

human comprehension. In health this blood
purifying process is carried ON without our
knowledge. The organs in which it is done
are faithful servants whose work is silent as
long as health remains.
People strangely wait until pain strikes n
nerve before they will realize that they have
any trouble They do not know that pain
concerns chiefly the exterior, not the interior
of the body. A certain set of nerves connect
these blood-purifying organs with the brain
they may not gnaw and bite as does the
tooth-ache or scratch, but they regularly,
silently report. When these organs are fail
ing these nerves indicate it by drawing the
blood from the face and cheek leaving the
lip and eye blanched, by sending uric acid
poison into the smallest veins, the skin then
becoming gray, yellow or brown. They also
prevent the publication of the blood in the
lungs and cause pulmonary difficulties, weari-
ness and pain. Who enjoys perfect health,
especially in this land where we burn the
candle i'll one maSsl The athlete breaks down
in the race; the editor falls at his desk; the
merchant succumbs in his counting-room.
These events should not have been un-
expected, for nature long ago hung
out her lanterns of alarm When the
ACCIDENT finally comes, its fatal effect is
seen in hundred forms; either as conges-
ton, chronic weakness, as wrong action, as
variable appetite, as head troubles, as palp-
tation and Irregularities of the heart, as
premature decay, as dryneSs and harshness
of the skin, causing the hair to drop out or
turn gray, as apoplexy, as paralysis, as gen
eral debility, blood poisoning, etc
Put no faith then in the wiseacre who
says there is no danger as long as there is no
pain. Put no faith in the physician who
ever he may be, who says it is a mere cold
or a slight indisposition. He knows little il
any, more than you do about it. He can

you can make as well as he.
IF the output is discolored or muddy, il il
contains albumen, lymph, crystals, sweet or
morbid matter, is red with escaped blood, or
rollY with gravel, mucus and froth, some
thing is wrong and disease and death are not
far away.
These organs which we have described
thus at length, because they are really the
most important ones in the human system,
the ones in which large majority of human
ailments originate and are sustained, are the
kidneys They have not been much discussed
in public, because it is conceded that the pro-
fessioE has little known power over them.
What is wanted for such organs is a simple
medicine, which can do no harm to the most
delicate, but must be of the greatest benefit
to the afflicted. Such a remedy, tried
and proved by many thousands all
over the world, is Warmers safe
cure. With those in whom disease is deep
seated IL is uhe only speclhc. For those IN
whom the seeds are sown and the beginning
of Illness started it is an unfailing reliance.

vent sickness and the sick to prevent death
With its aid the great filtering engines of the
system keep on in their silent work without
interruption; without it they get out of gear
and then disease and death open the door
and cross the Threshold =
Such writing ought not only to please, but
to carry conviction that what Editor Lass

tention and heed of all prudent, right
minded people.
