WHAT SCIENCE SAYS.
The "Fearful and Wonderful" Meohan- ism of the Human System Graphically Portrayed.

Portrayed.
 In the editorial columns of the New York Analpst, H. Lassng, M. D., editor, writes the following beautiful description of the labora- tories of the human system We think we have never read g finer or more trustworthy one.
 "Man is the greatest of all chemical lab oratories. Magnify the smallest cell of the body and what 8 factory is spread be- fore the eyes countless chambers in which are globes of air, masses of solid matter, globules of dying liquid; flash comes and the whole is consumed and needful heat is carried into every part of the system. Electrical forces also generate and are con- veyed to the brain, the muscles and the va- rious nerve centers.
 ''In another set of a million chambers we see various gases and vapors. By chemic al action these are changed and purified in the lungs and the skin. The blood we often say is @ great living river. In it's current are masses which the air in the lungs did not affect: 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 dis posed of? Begin where you will in this great stream you must come to the purify ing places of the system. Here is all ac- tivity and an invisible force reaches out into the stream, seizes and carries this mass of waste into vast trenches, thence into a smaller reservoir, and finally into larger reservoir, which regularly discharges its contents.
 "This separation of lime, uric acid and other waste material from the blood with out robbing 1t of a particle of the life fluid, passes human comprehension. In health this bloOd-purfying 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.

A certain set of nerves connect these biood-purifying organs with the brain. They may not gnaw and bite as does the tooth-ache or 8 scratch, but they regularly, silently report. When these organs are failing 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 purifcation of the blood in the lungs and cause pulmonary difficulties, weariness and pain. Who enjoys perfect health, espe- pecially in this land where we burn the candle in one mass? The athlete breaks down in the race; the editor falls at his desk; the merchant succumbs in his count ing-room. These events should not have been unexpected for nature long ago hupg out her lanterns of alarm When the accident finally comes, it's fatal effect is seen in hundred forms; either as conges- tion, chronic weakness, as wrong action, as variable appetite, as head troubles, as palpitation and irregularities of the heart, as premature decay, as dryneSs and harsh ness of the skin causing the hair to drop out or turn gray, as apoplexy, as paralysl as general 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 Tn the physician, whoever he may be, who says it is a mere cold or a slight indispositiOn. He knows little, if any, more than you do about 1t. He can neither see nor examine these organs and depends entirely upon experi- mental tests, that you can make as well as he.
 eff the output is discolored or muddy, if it contains albumen, lymph, crystals sweet or morbid matter, is red with escaped blood, or roily with gravel, mucus and froth, something 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 hu- man ailments originate and are sustained, are the kidneys. They have not been much discussed in public because 1t is conceded that the profession has little known power over them. Whatis 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 thou sands all over the world is Warner's safe cure. With those in whom disease is deep seated it is the only specific. For those in whom the seeds are sown and the begin ming of illness started it is an unfailing reli- ance. It may be recommended to the well to prevent sickness and the sick to prevent death. With it's aid the great Altering 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 thresh- old"
 Such writing ought not only to please but to carry conviction that what Editor Lassing, M. D.,-so high an authority says is true, and that his counsel is worthy the attention and heed of all prudent, right minded people.
