To TIE READERS OF THIS PAPER.
In common with many publishers and ed
itors, we have been accustomed to look upon
certain statements which NJ. nave seen in
our columns as merely adroit advertising.
Consequently we feel justified in taking
the liberty of printing a few points from q
private letter recently received from one OF
our largest patrons, as a sort Of confession
of faith to our readers. We quote:
"We have convinced ourselves that by
telling what we know to be true, we have
produced at last a permanent conviction in the
public mind. Nine years ago we stated
what the national disease of this country
was, and that it was rapidly increasing. Five
years ago we stated that a married check ha6
been given it.
s'The statistics of one Of the largest life
insurance companies of this country shows
that in 1883 and 1884, the mortality from
kidney disorders did not increase over the
previous years other companies stated the
same thing. It is not presumptuous for US
to claim credit for checking these ravages. 81
'sSeven years ago we stated that the con-
dition of the kidneys was the key to the con-
dition of health: within the past five years
all careful life insurance companies have
conceded the truth Of this statement, for
whereas, ten years ago, chemical analysis
to determine the condition of the kidneys
was not required, to-day millions of dollars in
risks are refused, because chemical examinar
ton discovers unsuspected diseases Of the
kidneys.
'sNine years ago we stated that the raw
ages of Bright's Disease were insignificant
compared with other unsupported disorders
of the kidneys Of many misleading names;
that ninety three per cent. of human all
ments are attributable to deranged kidneys,
which fills the blood with uric acid, or kidney
poison, which causes these many fatal dis
eases.
'The uric acid, or kidney poison, is the
real cause of the majority Of cases of paraly-
sis, apoplexy, heart disease, commissions,
pneumonia, consumption and insanity; over
half the victims Of consumption are first the
victims of diseased kidneys.
"When the recent death Of an honored ex-
official of the United States was announced,
his physician said that although he was
suffering from Bright's Disease, that was
not the cause OF death. He was not frank
enough to admit that the apoplexy which
overlook him in his bed, was the fatal effect
",
eaten away the substance Of the arteries
and brain; nor was Logan's physician honest
enough to state that his fatal rheumatism
was caused by kidney acid in the blood.
{" If the doctors would state in official re-
ports the original cause of death, the people
OF this country would be alarmed, yea,
nearly panic stricken, at the fearful mortality
from kidney disorders''
The writer's Of the above letter give these
facts to the public simply to JUSTIFY the claims
that they haze made, that ssif the kidneys and
liver are kept in a healthy condition by the
use OF Warmers safe cure, which hundreds
OF thousands have proved to be specific,
when all others failed, and that has received
the endorsement Of the highest medical
talent in Europe, Australia, and America,
many life would be prolonged and the
happiness OF the people preserved. It is
successful with so many different cases be-
cause it, and it alone, can remove the uric
acid from the blood through the Kidneys
Our readers are familiar with the prepar-
ntion named.
Commentator thereof has often appeared
In our columns.
We believe it to be one of the best, if not
the best ever manufactured. We know the
proprietors are men of character and in.
fuence.
We are certain they have awakened
widespread interest in the public mind con-
corning the Importance of the kidneys We
believe with them that they are the key to
health, and that for their restoration from
disease and main tenance in health, there is
nothing equal to this great remedy.
The proprietors say they ''do not glory in
this universal prevalence of disease, but
having started out with the purpose of
spreading the merits of Warmers safe
cure before the world, because 1t cared oar
senior proprietor, sOho soas giues up 6y doctors
as lucura6le, we feel it our duty to state the
fact and leave the public to its own infer
ences. We point to our claims and to their
public and uisversal verifcation with pride,
and if the public does not believe what we
say, we tell them to ask their friends and
neighbors what they think about our prep
arations."
AS stated above, we most cordially COM
mend the perusal of this correspondence by
our readers, believing that in so doing, we
are fulfilling a simple public obligation.
