Our reporter was very much struck with
conversation between two well-known
citizens short time ago.
~ notice you wear very strong eye
glasses.n
"Yes, yes; am perfect slave to my
goggles. IL is hard for me to understand
why one's eyesight fails when all other
faculties appear to be in good condition.
Even the young appear to lose their eye
sight"
az question very much the theory and
the old notion that poor light, fine print,
&C., Is responsible for it.n
at is well you may. II you consult an
ocullst for eye treatment, you will find he
d. 10 almost sure to analyze the fluids passed
before he will commence treatment. One
once told me that over half OF the falling
eyeslght was attributable to disease OF the
the uric acid from the system"
"How is thatp"
~ do not know. lie claimed that failing
eyesigbt was one OF the most prominent
symptoms Of advanced kidney and Bright's
disease"
Becoming more interested our reporter
thought he would carry Investigations still
further, and called upon an institution
where several prominent physicians are em-
ployed, and asked the question
"Why is It that uric acid or kidney poison
affects the eyesH"
One OF them answered, at does not affect
the eyes any more than any other organ.
1t lie one OF the symptoms Of kidney disease.
The system becomes saturated with uric
acid, and, as result, the weakest organ Is
the first to suffer. II may be the lungs,
nth har D L.,
affects many Of the other organs, and the
person SO affected may call It general de-
bilitY or premature old age, when In reality
IL is but the effect OF uric acid continually
poisoning the system, gradually consuming
the patient. Ii is for this reason our remedy
cures so many persons OF what are Or
dinarily called diseases, which, In fact, are
only symptoms. We cure the cause and
the cause cures the effect.n
"Then you cure blindness, do you?n
~ will cay yes, II you wist to put II as
broad as that, and yet we arenot entitled to
the credit. When we restore the kidneys to
health, they In turn restore the falling eye
sight. Our remedy restores the kidneys to
healthy action, and they cause the cure,
and so II Is with many Of the diseases that
We cure, which in reality arc but symptoms.
For instance, N. S. Sparks, Of Rochester,
says: 81 had lost the use Of one eye, and
the other was rapidly falling, caused by i'm.
pure blood | took Warmers safe cure to
purify my blood. Hardly expected It to
restore my eyesight, but II has done so."
W. A. Bargy, OF this city, says: "My
little daughter, years old, complained
some two years since Of inability to see, and
we noticed that she stumbled over things
while walking about the house. looked
at her eyes and found them almost white.
This SO alarmed me that | consulted a
physician, who said It would be necessary
to have an operation performed upon them.
To this l could not consent, but allowed
him to give her several treatments. She
grew worse and wasted to mere skeleton,
until doctor, more honest than the rest,
advised Warmers safe cure, and We began
Its use. noticed improvement at once,
and gradually she regained her health"
Mrs. Emma A. Densmore, Washington,
d. G., had her eyesight suddenly fail her,
the largest print, or recognize friends on the
street. After few bottles of Warmers
safe cure her eyesight began to return, and
stored.
Uric acid has special liking for the optic
nerve, and II 10 no uncommon thing for the
eyesight to begin to fail as the kidney dis
order advances, while the other organs re-
main In apparent good health for longer
way Of the system. Then physicians blandly
pronounce the malady general debility, OF
call symptom disease, that was the
most prominent before death claimed its
victim. They may call II apoplexy, paraly-
els, consumption, pneumonia, blood poison
ing, impoverished blood, malaria, rheuma
tism, pleurlsy-neverthele It is kidney dis
ease all the same, under another name.
"Wby all this deception :"
"Because the so-called medical fraternity
haxe no preparations that can cure kidney
disease, especially when 1t has become ad.
vanced, and they are ashamed to acknowl
edge 1t, and many Of them are too hide
bound to their code to use prescription
and a specific for the kidneys because II
is advertised, and the rroprietors refuse tc
expose their formula. That is exactly as II
is, In as few words as can give It. "
"Thanks. You have no objections to my
publishing this interview ?'
"None, whatever. We have no secrets
here, except our formula"
