Lost in the Storm.

LCSC IN the SCOrm.
One Of our local editors clipped from
a leading magazine extracts from a WV
Id description of western blizzard
which we have taken the liberty TO pub
fish and at the same time suggest to
II. II. Warner & Co., the proprietors
OF the celebrated Warmers Safe Cure,
the feasibility OF taking therefrom
an extract for the introduction OF one
OF their telling advertisements. The
following is tho description.
s.At the close of dark day in Janua-
ry solitary horseman wends his way
across the open prairie in one Of our
western territories. He passes at long
intervals the lone cabin of the hardy
frontiersman. Two or three old set
tiers, of whom he has inquired the
way, have warned him that a storm is
approaching, and one of them, with
true western hospitality, urges him TO
find shelter in his cabin for the night.
But he declines the proffered kindness
and urges his tired horse forward.
- The sky grows suddenly dark. =
He decides to seek shelter.
The storm increases in its fury.
." The rider dismounts to warm
his fast chilling limbs. "*+ Can
scarcely breathe. Blindness comes on.
Drowsiness steals over him. The end
is near. = - He is lost in the biz
zard."
There is no doubt that the terror
which scizes the bewildered traveller is
similar to that which overcomes one
when he learns that he is suffering
from an advanced Kidney Disease, and
is informed that he is in the last sta
ges of Bright's disease. At first he is
informed that he has slight kidney af-
lection. Later he begins to feel tired.
Slight headache. Tickle appetite.
Failure of the eye-sight. Cramp in
the calf of the legs. Wakefulnes.
Distressing nervousness. Rheumatic
and neuralgia pains. Occasionally pain
in the back. Scanty, dark colored flu
ids, with scalding sensation. Gradual
failure of strength.
Any of the above symptoms signify
Kidney Affection, but he is told that
he is all right. His physician treats
him for symptoms and calls it dis
ease, when in reality it is but symp-
tom of Kidney trouble. He may be
treated for Rheumatic or Neuralgia
pains, heart affection, or any other
disease which he is most susceptible
to. Finally the patient has putting
under the eyes, slight bloating of the
ankles and legs. His Physician may
inform him that it is but the accumula-
ton of blood in his ankles for want of
proper exercise.
The bloat continues and reaches his
body.
Then he is informed he has dropsi-
cal troubles, and is tapped once or
twice. He notices it is difficult to
breathe owing to irregular action of
the heart, and finally is informed that
he has a slight attack of Bright's dis
ease. Soon his friends are notified
that his is an advanced case of Bright's
Disease, and that he can live but a
short time: His honorable and digni-
fed physician asks for counsel. 1t is
too late. Still he sticks to the old fam
lily physician, and the physician knows
and has known from the beginning that
the patient has been stricken with
death for months, for he knows full
well that the profession acknowledge
they have no remedies for the cure of
Kidney disease.
At last the patient suffocates-is
smothered-and dies from dropsical
trouble. Or perhaps the disease may
not take the form of a dropsical tend
ency, and the patient dies from apo
plexy, paralysis, pneumonia or heart
trouble. Or it may take tho form of
blood poisoning. In each form the
end is the same. And yet he and his
friends were warned by the proprietors
of the celebrated remedy known as
Warmers Safe Cure, of the lurking
dangers of slight Kidney affection.
The newspapers have published the
dangers. Columns of facts have been
printed of men. dying from advanced
Kidney Disease or Bright's Disease.
His friends and physician look around
with horror and regret for seeming
neglect, but he is lost. He did not
heed the warning that a storm was APP
preaching. He declined the proffered
hospitality, and recklessly went for
ward into danger. He struggled man.
fully for a time, but his strength fail
ed, he grew gradually weaker and he
was lost to the world. Not in bliz-
zard. but from the terrible malady
which is almost daily occurring in
every community, and which is doctor
ed as symptom instead of what it is
a mortal disease unless properly treat
ed.
