% Subscribers" Query Causes Comment
AS our readers will remember, a letter
was published in our columns a few days
ago, signed "Subscriber'' which dwelt at
some length upon a subject of general in
terest, and which contained several in
euiries which will be found answered in
the following:
To the Ed t~or:-Several days ago I noticed
a communication in your paper from "Sub-
scriber," in which considerable comment
was INDUCED in concerning the pamphlets
which are widely distributed by Messrs. d.
b. Warner & Co., of Rochester, n. Y.
These pamphlets, as is well known. are
published In order that the public may be-
come conversant with the symptoms and
growth Of disease peculiar to the kidneys,
and which is, it must be admitted. the pro-
ductive cause, in a majority of instances, of
other organic disorders. The publishers of
these pamphlets are also the discoveries
and manufacturers of the noted Warmers
Safe Cure, which is known to be the only
means for the prevention and cure of
kidney disease, as can be testified to in
every community. In the pamphlets re-
ferred to there appear a number of testi-
monials from parties who speak in the
highest terms of how they have in many
instances been restored to health by War
ner's Safe Cure, after having been given
up by doctors to die, and attached to those
statements are the fac smile signatures OF
the parties themselves.
am personally aware that all the testi-
monlals published by this firm are genuine
and are the voluntary statements Of per
sons Who are anxious to manifest their
gratitude for the unexpected return of
health and vigor which Warmers Safe
Cure has brought them To make assur-
ance doubly sure, it can be added that
Messrs. II. II. Warner & Co., have for years.
published a standing offer of 5000 to any
one who will prove to an impartial referee
that any testimonial published by them ID
not, so far as they know, bona fde and ao-
solutely true. What more does "Subscri-
ber'' desire to convince him, in addition to
his W statement, that his ~neighbors all
tell him that Warmers Safe Cure has done
more good for them than they have received
from the doctors. III
In view, Mr.. Editor, of the many persons
who are sacrificed daily to ~de bigotry and
ignorance Of physicians who persist in
treating patients for symptoms. called con-
sumption, apoplexy, brain troubles, and
nervous disorders, when the real cause ls
disease of the kidneys which should be de-
tected and quickly eradicate BY the use OF
Warmers safe Cure-I maintain that the
value If those pamphlets, which place IL
the hands of the public the means OF know
ing the truth, can not be ov~erestlmated
