MaRy Durable Cases.
 Medical Stilus.l
 s'Many persons die of consumption who could easily be cured," says Dr. s. c. Clark, of Watertown; N. Y., Eff they would go at it right. I have new view of the disease. Consumption is not always of lung origin"
 ''How soa What is it then?"
 "Many cases of consumption are secondary. The disease itself prevails everywhere, but the best practitioners refuse to attribute it entirely to inheritance or the weather. If 8 person lives in the most favorable climate in the world and has any tendency to lung weakness, if certain conditions exist in the system, that climate, however favorable, will not prevent development of the disease. The disorder in such eases is only a secondary symptom in the lungs of some other ailment, and can never be cured until approached through it's source."
 "Yes, doctor; but what is the method of approaeha"
 Eff you dip your finger in acid you burn it; do you notf'
 eff you wash this burnt finger every sec- ond with the acid, what is the resultf" "Why, constant inflammation, lester ing and eventual destruction of the fin ger." Precisely! Now then for my method, which commends itself to the reason and JuOSmSuJ Ol every pIdCblO1Ou0T. IOu know certain acids are developed in the body. Well, if the system is all right these acids are neutralized or utilized and carried out. If the system is run down by excesses, an xlety, continual exposure, or overwork, these acids accumulate in the blood. If there is any natural weakness in the lung. this acid attacks it, having natural affinity for it, and if the acid is not neutralized or passed out of the system, it burns, ulcerates and finally destroys the lung. Is this clear?" Perfectly! But how do you prevent the accumulation of these acids in the sys. temp
 Irregularities of the liver and kidneys create this excess of acid and the supply can be cut off only by correcting the wrong action of these organs. The kidneys alone should carry out in quantity, in solution, enough o1 acid daily, which, if left in the blood, would kill fonr men. When the stomach, the liver and the kidneys are all conspiring to increase the acid, the wonder is that weak lungs resist death as long as they dQl''
 "But you have not told us how you would treat such cases.'
 "No, but will. The lungs are only dis eased as an effect of this acid or kidney poison in the blood. After having used authorized remedies to correct this acid condition, I was compelled, in justice to my patients, to use Wa1ner's Safe Cure; ;though a proprietary 1em- edy, it IS now recognized, see, by leading physicians, by presidents of State boards of health and by insurance physicians, as 8 scientific and the only specific for those great organs in which over ninety per cent of dis eases originate or are sustained" "Is this form of treatment successfully
 ''It is wonderfully so, and for that reason I am only too willing that you should an- nounce it to the world of consumptives:n
 Note to the publishers:-We have received the above interview from H. H. Warner & Co.,, Rochester N. Y, with the request that we publish it for the good of sui fering people. In foot note to their letter they say:
 ''The experience of Dr. Clark is not strange to us. In our correspondence we have found that many thousands of people are suffering from what they think is consumption, where as the real difficulty is with the liver and kid neys, proven by the fact that when these organs restored to health by the use of Warmers Safe Cure, the consumption disap- pears, and so does urenic or kidney poisoning, which causes 80 many symptoms of diseases that the human system is subject to. The same may be said of rheumatism, caused by an acid condition of the system. We insist upon what we always have claimed, if you remove the cause, the system will soon per. feet the work already begun. Mrs. Rev. Dr. Theodore Wolf, of Gettysburg, Pa, wife oi the editor of the Lutheran Quarterly, said her friends thought her far gone with con sumption, but after thorough treatment with Warmers Safe Cure, she says: ] am perfectly well.' We can cite thousands of such cases, but one is enough. If you publish the above article, kindly send us marked copy"
 We gladly give place to the article, for ii we can in any way stay the ravages o1 consumption, which carries away so many millions yearly, it is our bounden duty so tc do. l-PUB.
