The eminent scientist and author, Dr. 70.
seph +. Edwards, of Philadelphia, relates the
following wonderful experiences
during my term as resident physician i'll
the medical wards of the Philadelphia Hospit-
al, ii was common occurrence for an ambu-
lance call 10 be received from one of the
down town station houses. Upon reaching
the place designated, we would be shown a
man or woman who had been found uncon-
scions on the Streets and supposed to be in
toxicatcd. He would be removed to the hos
pital, where he would linger unconscious for
"a or SO hours and then de-. In the majority
OF these cases a post morton examination
would reveal most horrible state of affairs
which | will explain later"
"a lady in apparently good health. who
rarely complained, and then only occasionally
of some slight and transient i'll feeling, as near
ly every one does at some time or other, took
a long walk with her husband. and, upon re.
turning home (feeling particularly wel) went
to her room TO remove her bonnet and, while
standing in front Of the mirror feel to the floor
in CONFUSION, following "a hours of uncon-
seriousness, and death without a return to con-
sciousness. A post norton examination re-
vealed the real cause in a most horrible form. -
"a young married man for years suffered
from dyspepsia for which he consulted many
physicians. After suffering in this way and
having no other symptoms of disease. he
awoke one morning to find very slight swell
ing, scarcely more than pufiiness under one
eye. In less than month he was dead"
Now the real and terrible cause Of all these
deaths was Bright's disease of the kidneys
and they might all have been avoided had the
unfortunate victims known what horrible
malady was fastened upon them. Had any
condition. their danger, and had they used
Hunts Remedy promptly and faithfully they
might have been alive and well to-day. Bright.s
disease has no symptoms of its own. 1t steals
into the system like thief and deceives its
victim by showing the symptoms of nearly eve
ry other disease.
Take it in time.
IT, you feel unaccountabe tired; if YOU have
peculiar passing pains; ifyour appetite is un-
certain; if your head aches occasionly; if your
sleep is irregular; if Your fluids passed are pro-
fuse or scanty, do not delay but use the best
possible means for escaping agony and death
before it is to late. For this purpose Hunts
Remedy has never been equalled and it is the
only certain cure known to the medical Pro-
tession. There are thousands Of men and
women to-day who enjoy perfect health who
would be in their graves had it not been for
this wonderful remedy and there are thousands
OF othere who require it without an hours de-
lay. This is no idle statment but truth drawn
from cases which are beyond question.

All Hash to Him.

The daughter Of Boston merchant
of great wealth, wide mercantile con-
nections, and boundlesS hospitality
was lately married. The western agent
of the merchant happened to be in
town, and. as the proud father was in
viting about everybody to his daugh-
ter's wedding, he invited the wcstcrncr
too.
The wcstcrner came. He was un-
easy, and shifted about from place to
place in the house as if he were hunt
ing for spots that suited him better
than those he had been in. He put
his hands nonchalantly on things aud
took them off again suddenly, as if he
found them hot, and grinned familiar
ly at people he had never seen before,
and then suddenly drew his features
back with a CHASTITY solemnity 1t
seemed to be en- occasion of great and
overwhelming novelty to him.
When the refreshments came around
he was inclined to fight shy of pretty
nearly everything. It was as if he pro-
posed to take en- a little Boston for
mality, now that he was in Boston, and
require an introduction to every dish.
His host saw that he wasn't eating
much, and came around to sec about
it.
why, you Amt eating anything,
MIR. West" he said, cant l help you
to something's"
mo, | thank you, said the western
er, II amt very hungry tonight. /
reckon I've eat enough"
Just then a waiter came along with
some croqucttes.
"Mr. West. take one OF those cro-
quotes, think you II like them; take
one. take one"
The wcsterner took one. He punch
ed it with his fork, laid it open a bit,
and examined it critically. Then he
tasted it and Cxclaimcd:

ALLEN PlNKERTON. the famous detective,
was born in Glasgow, Scotland, in the year
1919. He died in Chicago, July Ist 1884 1t
is difficult in Il brief sketch to estimate his life

life and great life, and it rendered services to
this country which can hardly be oyer-estlma-

few men to equal.

organized and determined crime. in many
countries, are facts familiar, and they consti-

of his life and the mans real character.

men, the ability TO concentrate his faculties on
one subject, and the persistent power of will.

read every movement of the criminals, and
reached invariably the correct conclusion as
TO the conduct, and the guilt of those who
commit it. His mental view was broad; no
one circumstance directed or controlled it.
He saw all the facts, and on them based his
conclusions. lie was self-posessed and we'll
poised The certainty OF his judgement,
though characterized by quick movement OF
the intellect, was the result of vigorous an6
