description:

There is no doubt that the terror which
seizes the bewildsred traveller is similar to

formed that he has slight attack OF Brlghts
Disease. 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 dignified physician asks for
counsel. 1t is too late. Still he sticks to the
old family 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 we'll that the
profession acknowledge they have no rene

At last the patient sufocates sis smothered

dropsical tendency, and the patient dies from

trouble. Or it may take the 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 dan

Of men dying Of advanced Kidney Disease
or Bright's Disease. His friends and physi-
clan look around with horror and regret
for seeming neglect, but he is lost. He did
not heed the warning that storm was ap-
preaching. He declined the proffered hospi-
tality, and recklessly went forward into
danger. He struggled manfully for time,
but his strength failed, he grew gradually
weaker and he was lost to the world. Not
in blizzard, but from the terrible malady
which is almost daily occurring in every
community, and which is doctored as a
symptom instead of what it is-a mortal dis
ease unless properly treated.
