HE ENIGMA,
What the Scientific World wants TO
KnOw-A 100000 Offer.

We have published in our colums from
time to time different advertisements in
regard to Bright's Disease and its cures.
What is this terrible disease?
We have taken the trouble to make an
investigation from the best sources and
we give the results to our readers
What astonlshes us is the general in
difference given to kidney disorders.
The kidneys do not SQUAD the alarm OF
their diseased condition, owing to the
fact that they have very few nerves,
hence few suspect that there is any dis
ease in them. Irritation, Inflammation,
liberation set IN, and then the little
tubes, of which the kidneys are full. are
destroyed and thrown off, and from this
fact are called tube casts.
AS soon as this begins to take place it
is only a question of how fast dec0mpo-
sition goes on before the disease results
fatally. If the proper remedies are ia
ken before final decomposition or waste
of these tubes commences or becomes too
far advanced. that is the only and last
chance for relief. 1t is at this point or
before that Warmers safe cure proves so
beneficial, and may cure or stop the
wasting away of the kidneys if it has
no: advanced too far.
The most remarkable thing of all our
investigation Is the fact that the patient
with BrIght's disease has no exclusive
symptoms of every common disease,
FIRST he may possibly feel a dull pain
in his back. generally upon one side,
which does not bebar him from his usual
business routine. After time he may
begin to feel neuralgia pains, or have a
slight attack of what he may call rheu-
matism, or headache, with high or dark
cOlored urine, with an unpleasant sensa-
tion in its passage, and after standing
showing an unnatural condition Of the
stomach. Any one of these symptoms
is liable to acCur.
This no doubt explains why the pro-
prietors of Warmers safe cure are cur
In5 80 many diseases. By regulating
and building up the kidneys. symptoms
of general ill-heath disappear. They
justly accuse the medical profession OF
treating the effects and not the cause
Finally If this disorder is neglected the
patient either dies of apoplexy. pneumo
MIA, heart disease, blood poison, con-
sumption, or any other disease that the
system is most subject to.
There appears TO be some one cause
for nearly every other ailment OF the
human system, but up to the present
time no one has been able to fully ac-
count for this terrible maIady. We un-
derst M that the people of Germany
have hecome aware of its fearful fatalI
tv.and have offered 400, 900 marks ($l00.
0O0) so any one that can satisfactorily
explain the cause.

A VERMONT SUGAR EXCHANGE.
The State Grange discussing the Manu-
facture of Maple Sugar

The State Grange discussing the Manu-
tacture of Maple Sugar.
\ maple sugar exchange is talked of
in the State to guard against adultera-
ton. 1t is said that the abuse of the
genuine article is resulting seriously to
farmers. The average annual product
is about 12,0n0.000 pounds; aud last
spring the net iucome was $750,000. 1t
l. urged that this amount would be in
creased 25 per cent, by an exchange.
Until within few years the adultera-
non of maple sugar was unknown to the
farmers of Vermont. Even today it is
not extensively practiced, and it is
doubtful If one in ten of the farmers un
derstOod the process OF adulteraliOn or
have apy disposition to learn how. The
maple is every ywhere abundant in Yer
mont, and it requires no skill to secure
the sap. The harvest comes at a season
of the year when the farmer has moth
ing else important to do, and the crop is
always in demand. Only small part
of the great maple forests are now used
IN sugar making. though il would be an
easy matter to get at them. She sugar

To MRS. FRED N. SQUIRE, ON THE
DEATH OF HER BABE.

A babe was thine-a treasure here:
A babe was thine-and oh. how dear!
God gave to you the precious boon
Why did He take it back so soon?
This babe upon your bosom lay,
And iearer, swetter grew each day;
The object of your tender care,
Source ofmany fervent praper,
1t tasted OF life's bitter cup,
And then refused to drink it up!
And soon you saw it droop and fade,-
To drink more anguish twas afraid.
It disd-and sadly you're bereft,
Though grateful still for blessings left;
Why mourn, it could not stay with you
When Heaven was opened to its view.
And thither by Deaths message sent,
The little cherub eager went;
In Jesus arms doth safely rest
Fond mother, how your babe is blest!
Submission to tour Fathers" will,
The babe may Hrsvenward draw you still
Then leave to God the boon He gave,
Your faith can triumph DER the grave.
