In the editorial columns a the New York An
dlyst. II. Lass;ng, NJ. d., editor, writes the fol-
lowing beautiful description Of the labofatcric
read n finer or more trustworthy one,
Man is the greatest of all chemical labora-
tories. Magnify the sma lest cell of the body,
and what n factory is-spread before the eyes,
counties, chambers in which are globes OF air,
masses of so!id matter, globules Of dying
liquid; a flash comes and the whole is con-
sumed and needful. heat il carried into every
crate and are conveyed to the brain, the mus
cies and the various nerve centers.
In another set Of a million chambers We SOC
various gases AMI vapors. BY chemical action
these arc changed and purified in the lungs
and the skin. The blood we often say is a
which the air in the lungs did not affect;
blocks Of chalk; slabs OF tartar; pieces of
bone-ash, strings of albumen; drops of mo-
lassts, and lines of alcohol. how are these
waste masses disposed ofy Begin where You
will in this great stream you must come to the
purifying places of the system. Hero all is
activity and an invisible force reaches out in
to the stream, scizes and carries this mass OF
waste into vast trenches, thence into a smaller
reservoir, and finally into a larger reservoir,
which regularly discharges its contents.
This separation Of lime, uric acid, aud other
waste material from the blood, without robbing
it Of a particle Of the life fluid, passes 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 aa health
remains.
"People strangely wait until pain strikes a
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 con-
meet these blood-purifying organs with the
brain. They may not gn&w and bite as does
the toothache or O scratch, but they regu-
larry, silently report When these organs are
failing, these nerves indicate it by drawing
tho blood from the face and cheek, leaving
the lip and eye blanchea, 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, weaH-
ness and pam. Who enjoys perfect health,
especially in this land where we burn the can
die in ono mass? The athlete breaks down in
the race; the editor falls at his desk; the mer-
chant succumbs in his counting room. These
events should not have been unexpected for

alarm When the accident tinahy comes,
its fatal effect is seen in q hundred forms;

~Put no faith, then, in the wiseacre who says
there il no danger IA long as there is no pain.
Put no faith in the physician, whoever he may
be, who says it Is a mere cold or a slight indis-
position. He knows little, if any, more than
you do about it He can neither zee nor ek-
anime these organs, and depends entirely upon
experimental tests, that yon can make as we'll

IF the output is discolored or muddy, if it

morbid matter, is red with escaped blood. or
roily with gravel, mucus, and froth, something

"Thcse organs which we have described thus
at length, because they are really the most i'm
portant ones in the human system, the ones in
which 4 large ma iority OF human ailments orig

have Eot been much discussel in public be-
cause it IL 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, tired and proved by many thou
sands ali over the world, is Warmers 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 beginning
of Illness started ii is an unfailing reliance. II
may be recommended to the well to prevent
sickness and to the sick to prevent
death. With its aid the great fltering 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"
