WHAT'S KILLING US7"
The Wonders Which the Microscope
 Reveals.

One of the leading scientific publica lions states that many people are nov | using the microscope to discover the req cause Of disease in tbe system, and to de teCt adulterations of food and medicines This wonderful instrument has saveC many life. A microscopicalte test shows for instance, the presence of albumen, o the life of the blood, in certain derauge ments of the kidneys, but medicine does not tell us how far advanced the derange ment is, or whether it shall prove fatal
 The microscope, however, gives us thi: knowledge:
 Brigats disease, which so many peo pie dread, was not fully known until the microscope revealed it's characteristics It greatly aids the physician, skilled il it's use, in determining how far disease has advanced, and gives fuller idea O. the true structure of the kidney.
 4 noted German scholar recently dis covered that by the aid of the microscope the physician can tell if there is tumo: forming in the system, and if certain ap pearances are seen in the fluids passed 1t IS proof positive that the tumor is to be malignant one.
 If any derangement of the kidneys is
  cian looks for the development of almost any disease the system is heir to, and any indication of Bright's disease, which has no symptoms of it's own, and cannot be fully recognized except by the micro. scope, he looks upon with alarm.
 This disease has existed for more than 2,000 years. It is only until recently that the microscope has revealed to us its universal prevalence and fatal character Persons who formerly died of what was called general debility, nervous break flown, dropsy, paralys:s, heart disease, rheumatism, GpopleCy, etc., are now known to have really died of kidney disease, because, had there been no dis order of the kidneys, the chances are that the effects from which they died would never haEe existed.
 As the world becomes better ac- Guainted with the importance of the kid neys in the human economy by the aid of the micros ope, there is greater alarm spread throu II the communities concern ing 1t, and thls accounts for the erroneous belief that it is on the increase.
 As yet neither homeopathist nor allo- pathist is prepared with cure for de- ranged kidneys, but the world has long since recognized, and D1any medical gen. t!emen also recognize and prescribe War ner's safe cure for these Arrangements, and admit that 1t is the only specific for tine common and advanced forms of kid. ney disorders.
 Formerly the true cause of death was discovered only after death. To-day the microscope shows us, in the water We pass, the dangerous condition of any or gan Tn the body, thus enabling us to treat It promptly and escape premature death.
 AS the microscope in the shands of lay men baS revealed many diseases that the medical men were not aware of, so that preparation, like many other discoveries i'll medicine and science, was found out by laymen, outside the medical code :; consequently 1t comes very hard for med ical men to indorse and prescribe it. Nevertheless, Warmers safe cure con- tinues to grow in popularity and the evidences Of its effectiveness are seen or every hand.
 some persons claim that the proprie- tors should give the medical profession the formula of this remedy, if it is such ] "GOd-send to humanity" and let the physicians and public judge whether or HOt u DS SO rSCOEnlZSO.
 We, however, do not blame tbem for not publishing the formula, even to get the recognition of the medical profession. The standing of tine men who manufac- ture this great remedy is equal to that of the majority of physicians, and the req son that some doctors give for not aiopt- ing and prescribing it-viz.: that they do not know what it's ingredients are is absuru.
 Mr. Warmers statement@that many of the ingredients are expensive, and that the desire of the interruptions dealer or prescriber to realize large profit from its manufacture by using cheap and in- furious substances for those ingredients would jeopardize its quality and reputa- ton; and that Warner S safe cure cannot be made in small quantities on account of the expensive apparatus necessary in compounding these ingredients-seems to us to be a reasonable and sufficient one.
 The universal testimony of our friends and neighbors, and the indisputabie evi- dence that it. and it alone, has complete mastery over all diseases of the kidneys, is sufhcieet explanation of it's extraor dinary reputation, and conclusive proof that it is, perhaps, the most beneficial discovery known to scientific medicine since the microscope revealed to us the nature of the organs it is designed to reach and benefit.
