Many Of them died without warning,

Many statements haze appeared in
our paper with Others to the effect that
the diseases that carried off SO many
prominent men in 1887, are really one
disease, taking different names accord

When q valuable horse perishes, 1t

sporting world, and yet thousands Of
ordinary horses are dying every day,
their aggregate loss is enormous, and
yet their death creates 10 comment.

1t Is said that IL the blood is kept
free from uric acid, that heart disease,

monia, Rheumatism, and many cases of
consumption, would never bc known.
The uric acid; We arS told, is the waste
OF the system, and II is the duty Of tho

We believe that Warmers safe cure, Of
which SO much has been written, and

orally, is now recognized by impartial
physicians and the public as the one
specific for such diseases.
Because public attention has been di-
rected to this great remedy by means
OF advertising, some persons have not
believed in the remedy. We cannot

many of them are incompetent.
1t is astonishing what good opinions
you hear on every side, of that great
remedy, and public opinion thus based
upon an actual experience, has all the
weight and Importance of absolute
truth.
At this time Of the year, the uric acid
in the blood invites pneumonia and
rheumatism and there is not q man
who does not dread these monsters of

These words are strsng and may
sound like an advertisement, and be
rejected as such by unthinklng people,
but we believe they are the truth and
as such should be spoken of by every
truth-loving newspaper.
