 Optic Nerve.

Rochester Union and Advertiser
 Our reporter was very much struck with a conversation between two we'll known citizens, a short time ago.
 ''I notice you wear very strong eye glasses"
 Yes, yes, am a perfect slave to my goggles. It is hard for me to un- derstand why ones eyesight fails when all other faculties appear to be in good condition. Even the young appear to lose their eyesight."
 " question very much the theory and the old notion that poor light, fine print, etc., is responsible for it.
 ''It is well you may. Hyou consult an oculist for eye treatment, you will find he is almost sure to analyze the fluids passed before he will com mence treatment; one once told me that ever half of the failing eyesight was attributable to disease of the kid- neys, because of their inability to ex- pei the uric acid from the system"
 ;' How is that?"
 fT do not know. He claimed that flii;'c eycsight was one of the most pfo!.iin2ui symptoms of advanced kid ney a!il Bright's disease"
 Be@",n:nE more interested, our re- porter t!ous Int he would carry investi- gatiogs still further, and called upon an institution where several promi- noat physicians are employed, and asked ilc question:
 w hy i5 t that uric acid or kidney poisor. affects tie eyes?"
 One Q: th m answered, "It does not affect the eyes any more than any other organ. It is one of the symp- toms of kidney disease. The system becomes saturated with uric acid, and, as q result, the weakest organ is the first to suffer. It may be the lungs, heart, brain or any other organ; it generally affects many of the other organs. a1G the person so affected may call t raj debility, or premature old 2 n in reality 1t is but tho effect L.. iT.o acid, continually poison ing the system, gradually consuming the patient. It is for this reason our. remedy cures SO many persons oi what are ordinarily called diseases, which in fact are orly symptoms. We cure the cause and the cause cures the effect"
 "Then you cure blindness, do you?"
 q will say yes, if you wish to pull it as broad as that, and yet we are not entitled to the credit. When we re- store the kidneys to health, they in turn restore the fai;,ng eyesigft. Our remedy restores the kidneys 10 a healthy action, and they cause the cure, and so it is with many oi the diseases that we cure, which in reality ace but symptoms. For instance. N. S. Sparks of Rochester, says f'1 had lost the use of one eye, and the other was rapidly failing, caused by inn pure blood. 1 took Warmers safe cure to purify my blood. Har,,ly eS- pected it to restore my eyesight, but it has done so."
 ". A. Bargy, of this city, says "My little daughter seven years old com p,ained some two years since 0f ina bility to see, and we noticed that she stumbled over things while Talking about the house. Hooked at her eyes and found them almost white. This so alarmed me that 1 consulted physician, who said it would be neces- sary to have an operation performed upon them. To this 1 could not con sent, but allowed him to give her several treatments. She grew worse and wasted to a mere skeleton, until a doctor more honest than the rest, advised Warmers safe cure, and we began it's use. I noticed improve ment at once, and gradually she re- gained her health."
 Mrs. Emma A. Densmore, Wash ington, D. C., had her eyesight sud denly fail her, so she was unable, as she says, to read even the largest print, CT recognize friends on the street. After a few bottles of Warmers safe cure, her eyesight began to re- turn, and continuing it's use, she was restored.
 Uric acid has a special liking for the optic nerve, and it is no uncom- mon thing for the eyesight to begin to ,ail as the kidney disorder advances, while the other organs remain in ap- parent good health for longer period, 3r until there is general giving way 1f the system. Then physicians 5iandly pronounce the malady general debility, or call symptom disease, that was the most prominent before leath claimed its victim. They may ,all it apoplexy, paralysis, consump- ion, pneumonia, blood poisoning, blood, malaria, rheu- natism, pleurisy-nevertheless it is kidney disease, all the same, under mother name.
 Why all this deception"
 Because the so-called medical have no preparations that ;an cure kidney disease, especial V when it has become advanced, and hey are ashamed to acknowledge it, md many of them are too high-bound 0 their code to use a prescription anl | specific for the kidneys, because 1t s advertised, and the proprietors re- use to expose their formula. That is 'xac,ly as it is, in as few words as l an give it.
