description of the laboratories of the
human system. We think we have
never read finer or more trustworthy
one.
Man is the greatest of all chemical
laboratories. Magnify the smallest
cell in the body and what 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 consumed and needful heat
is carried into every part ofthe system
and electrical forces also generate and
are conveyed to the brain, the mus
cles and the various nerve centers.
In another set Of million cham
bers we see various gases and vapors
BY chemical action these are changed
and purified in the lungs and skin.
The blood we often say is great liv-
ing river In its current are masses
which the air in the lungs did not
affect blocks of chalks; slabs Of tar
tar, pieces of bone ash; strings of al
bumen; drops of alcohol. How are
these waste masses disposed of? Be-
gin where you will in this great stream
you must come to the purifying
places of the system 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 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 without robbing it of particle
of the life fluid passes human com.
prehension. In health this blood
purifying process is carried on with
out 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 nerve before they will realize
that they have any trouble They do
not know that pain concerns chiefly
the exterior 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 reg
nlarly, silently report. When these
organs are failing these nerves indi-
cate 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 purii-
cation of the blood in the lungs and
cause pulmonary difficulties, WEAKNESS
and pain. Who enjoys pefect health,
especially 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 sue
cumbs in his counting room These
events should net have been unex-
pected for nature long ago hung out
her lanterns of alarm When the
accident" finally come, it's fatal
effect is seen in a hundred different
forms; either as congestion, chronic
weakness, as wrong action, as variable
as head troubles as palpita-
ton and Irregularities of the heart, as
premature decay, as dryness and
harshness of skin causing the hair TO
drop out or turn gray, as apoplexy,
as paralysis, as general debility, blood
poisoning, etc.
Put nc faith then in the wiseacre
who says there is no danger as long
as there is no pain Put no faith in
the physician whoever he may be who
says it is a mere cold or slight in
He knows little, if any,
more than you do about it He can
neither see nor examine these organs
and depends entirely upon exper-
mental tests that you can make as
well as he.
If the outputs 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 des-
cribed thus at length, because they are
really the most important ones in the
human system, the ones in which a
large majority of human ailments or
iginate and are sustained are the kid
neys They have not been much dis
cussed in public because it is conceded
that the profession 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 word is Warmers safe cure
With those in whom disease is deep
