BLINDED BY PREJUDICE.
Some Striking Situations Into Which Well
Informed Persons Are Led.

There is no end of wischcraft and de-
ceptlon. Years ago persons suspected of
the strange infstuation" we're thrown
into the water-if guilty of witchcraft,
they would drown.
For many years the world wss shocked
at such inhumanIty of man TO N an, but
If We were to declare that people are per-
secuted to-day quite as remorsslessly as
we're the so called witches of old, our
statements might be received with great
incredulity.
But II is fact.
II you do not believe it, enter sny one
of the schools of medical practice, aud
attempt TO use a preparation which the
code does not recognize, or even 10 rec
ommend indirectly any popular remedy,
such for instance, as Warmers celebrated
kldHey remedy, and then relate your ex-
perlence.
Then you'll admit the fact.
Let Us be frank with you reader. We
tel you that this Is downright bigotry.
Merit demands and is entitled TO rscoS-
milton wherever found. If biologists tell
as that diamonds must always be foand
in sand, would you not be a fool, if Won
found one In gravel, not to take it and
"realIze" OF i'll
Your friends would call you foolish.
The trouble with the doctors is that
they can't cure advanced diseases of GER
tain forms, and they know it. And yet
they will not allow the use of any outside
proprietary medicine, which they know
has cured the disease.
For instance:
Kidney disease has no marked ipdivid-
ual symptoms. 1t produces all sorts of
symptoms of the commopest diseases.
Not being able to treat the disease itself
with success, the bigoted physician treats
these symptoms!
But what good does that dor In order
to stop the freshet, you must stop the
flood! 1t won't do to try brushing it
awap with broom.
DR.. j. G. Holland, whom all the world
admired as teacher of sense, wrote in
Scribner's Monthly: 1T is fact that
many of the best proprietary medicines
OF the day are more successful than
many physicians, aud most of them were
first discovered and used in actual medi-
cal practice"
DR.. Robson of the Royal Navy of Eng
land enthusiastically endorses Warner
safe cure, as indeed do many hundreds
OF thousands all over the world. The
late Or. do Lewis, who almost never
used medicines, commended it highly and
said if he had any kidney disease he
would use it.
This evidence Is conclusive.
Paralysis, consumption, pneumonia.
apoplexy, heart disease, general debility,
rheumatism, all these common disorders
are often only symptoms of kidney dis
ease. Instead of admitting their inabil-
lty to cure this disorder, doctors give
their attention 20 the symptoms. If they
cure one, another comes, and finally
death takes the case GU of their hands.
Then they disguise the fact that it is
brlghts disease of the kidneys and say
that death came from paralysis, apOple1y,
pneumonia, consumptiun, general debil-
lty, rheumatism, heart disease, blood
poisoning, or sumo other OF the names of
the direct effects of kidney disease. They
are not the real disease itself.
We do not believe every advertisement
that we read. Some people may perhaps
regard this article as an advertisement
and will not believe it, but we are candid
| enough to say that we believe the parties
above mentioned have proved their case
| end under such circumstances the public
Is unwise if it is long influenced by ad-
verse pre-! udice.
