The Wonders Which the Microscope Re.

One Of the leading scientific publication.
, states that many people are now using tbe
microscope to discover the resl cause of dis
ease in the system, and to detect adultera.
tions of food and medicines.
This wonderful instrument has saved
many life. A microscopical test shows.
for instance, the presence of albumen. or
the life of the blood, in certain derange-
ments of the kidneys, but medicine does not
tell US how far advanced the arrangement
is, or whether it shall prove fatal.
The microscope, however, gives us this
knowledge:
| Bright's disease, which so many people
dread, was not fully known until the micro
scope revealed its characteristics. 1t great
| ly aids the physicians. skilled in its use, in
determining how far disease has advanced,
| and gives fuller idea of the true structure
of the kidney.
A noted German scholar recently discov-
cred that by the aid of the microscope, the
physician can tell if there is tumor form
ing in the system, and il certain appear
ances are seen in the fluids passed, it is
proof positive that the tumor is to be
malignant one.
If any arrangement of the kidneysis de-
tected by the microscope, the physician
looks for the development of almost any dis
ease the system is heir to, and any indica-
tion of Bright's disease, which has no synip-
| toms of its own, and cannot be fully recog-
nized except by the microscope, he looks
upon it with alarm.
This disease has existed for more than
2 900 years. 1t is only until recently that
the microscope has revealed to US its uni
versal prevalence and fatal character. Per-
sons who formerly died of what was called
general debility, nervous break down,
dropsy, paralysis, heart disease, rheuma-
tism, apoplexy, etc, are now known to have
really died of kidney disease, because, had
there been no disorder of the kidneys, the
chances are that the effects from which
they died would never have existed.
AS the world becomes better acquainted
with the importance Of the kidneys in the
human economy by the aid of the micro
scope, there is greater alarm spread through
the communities concerning it, and this ac-
counts for the erroneous belief that it is on
the increase.
As yet neither homeopathist nor allopa-
thist is prepared with a cure for deranged
kidneys, but the world has long since recog-
nized, and many medical gentlemen also
recognize and prescribe Warmers safe cure
for these arrangements, and admit that it
is the only specific for the common and ad.
vanoed forms of kidney disorders. I
Formerly the true cause Of death was
discovered only after death. To-day the
miscroscope shows us, in the water we
pass, the dangerous condition Of any organ
in the body, thus enabling us to treat it
promptly and escape premature death.
As the miscroscope in the hands OF lay
men has revealed many diseases that the
medical men were not aware OF, so that prep
arstion, like many other discoveries in
medicine and science, was found out by
laymen, outside the medical code; conss-
quently it comes very hard for medical men
to indorse and prescribe it. Nevertheless,
Warmers safe cure continues to grow in
popularity and the evidences of its effective
ness are seen on every hand.
Some persons claim that the proprie5ors
should give the medical profession the form
ula of this remedy, if it is such "God-send
to humanity" and let the physicians and
pnh'ia Judge whether or not it be so Tseog-
niAsds
we, however, do not blame them for not
publishing the formula, even to get the REQ.
ognition of the medical profession. The
standing Of the men who manufacture this
great remedy is equal to that of the majori-
ty of physicians, and the reason that some
doctors give for not adopting and prescrib-
ing it-viz.: that they do not know what
it's ingredients are--is absurd.
Mr.. Warmers statement-that many of
the ingredients are expensive, aud that the
desire of the unscrupulous dealer or pre-
scriber to realize large profit from its
manufacture by using cheap and injurious
substances for those ingredients would
ieopardize its quality and reputation; and
that Warmers safe cure cannot be made in
small quantities on account of the expen-
sive apparatus necessary in compouuding
these ingredents-seems to US to be a rea-
sonable aud sufficient one.
The universal testimony of our friends
aud neighbors, and the iudisputabls evil
dence that it, and ft alone, has complete
mastery over all diseases of the kidneys, is
sufficient explanation of its extraordinary
reputation, and conclusive proof that it is,
perhaps, the most beneticient discovery
known to scientific medicine since the micro
scope revealed to US the all.important na-
ture Of the organs it is designed to reach
and benefit.
