BLINDED BY PREJUDICE.
Some Striking Situations Into which
Well Informed Persons are Led.

There is no end of witchcraft and de-
ception. Years ago persons suspected
of the s'strange infatuationn were
thrown into the water-if guilty of
witchcraft, they would drown.
For many years the world was
shocked at such inhumanity of man to
man, but If We were to declare that
people are prosecuted to-day quite as
remorselessly as were the so-ealIed
witches Of old, our statements might be
received with great incredulity.
But it is a fact.
If you do not believe IL, enter any
one of the schools of medical practice.
ana attempt to use preparation which
the code does not recognize, or even to
recommend indirectly any popular
remedy such for instance, as Warmers
celebrated kidney remedy, and then
relate your experience.
Then you'll admit the fact.
Let us be frank with you, reader.
We tell you, that this is downright
bigotry. Merit demands and is en-
titled to recognition, wherever found.
If geologists tell US that diamonds must
always be found in sand, would you
not be fool, If you found one In gravel,
not to take it and ''realizen on it?
Z Your friends would call you foolish.
The trouble with the doctors is that
they can't cure advanced diseases of
certain forms, and they know it. And
yet they willnot allow the use of any
outside proprietary medicine, which
they know has cured the disease.
For instance:
Kidney disease has no marked in
dividual symptoms. 1t produces all
sorts of symptoms of the commonest
diseases. Not being able to treat the
disease itself with success, the bigoted
physician treats these symptoms!
But what good does that do? In
order to stop the freshet, you must stop
the flood; 1t won't do to try brushing
it away with broom.
DIR. j. G.. Holland, whom all the
world admired as teacher of sense.
wrote in Scr5bacr's Moatltlg: ut is a
fact that many of the best proprietary
medicines ofthe day are more success
fui than many physicians, and most of
them were fret discovered and used in
actual medical practice"
DIR. Robson of the Royal Navy OF
England enthusiastically endorses
Warmers safe cure, as indeed do many
hundreds Of thousands all over the
world. The late DIR. Dio Lewis, who
almost never used medicines, COM
mended it,highly and said if he had
any kidney disease he would use ii.
This evidence is conclusive.
Paralysis, consumption, pneumonia,
apoplexy, heart disease, general de-
bility, rheumatism, all these common
disorders are often only symptoms Of
kidney disease. Instead of admitting
their inability to cure this disorder,
doctors give their attention to the
| symptoms. If they cure one, another
comes, and finally death takes the case
out Of their hands. Then they dis
guise the fact thatit is Bright's disease
of the kidneys and say that death came
from paralysis, apopIexy, pneumonia,
consumption, general debility, rheu.
matism, heart disease, blood poisoning
| or some other of the names of the di.
! rect effects of kidney disease. They
are not the real disease itself.
We do not believe every advertise
ment that we read. Some people may
perhaps regard this article as an adver
tisementand will not believe it, but VIZ
are candid enough to say that we be.
lieve the parties above mentioned have
proved their case, and under such cir
cumstances the public is unwise if it il
