ROCK ISLAND, FRIDAY. MARCH s, 1859.
The Lost Atlantis.

For many centuries there has been a
tradition of long lost island called At
lantis.
The Greek geographers located it in the
Atlantic Ocean, west of the northwest
part of Africa and the Pillars of Her
cules. The sea-kings of Atlantis are said
to have invaded Europe and Africa, and
to have been defeated by the Athenians.
All the legends agree that it was a vast
island, of inexhausti5le resources, and In-
habited by race of superior people. For
ages this island has existed only in legen>
dairy lore. But now, when the light Of
modern research is turned full upon the
investigation, behold the lost Atlantis at
our very doors.
So the bigoted medical fraternity goes
cropping about in the dark, seeking for an
Atlantis or Esculapius. when if they
would investigate, they would behold the
lost Atlantis at their very door. With
their ancient text book, case of physic,
a paper in their waistcoat giving them
license to practice. experiment and dose
with their injurious drugs, cauterze and
perform unnecessary acts, with no per-
son or laws to hold them accountable,
they continue their bigoted, unjustified
practice, staring into vacancy and imag.
lining that they see in themselves an Es-
culapius.
Wrapped in ancient bigotry, they are
crying out against all improvements tn 1T
have been made in medical science. They
denounce any new idea advanced by
layman or any opposition school as n
fraud.
Whyt
Because humanity will not be benefit
| ed? Not at all, but because their special
ism did not make the discovery.
Yet they concede that there is no
remedy known to their materia medica
that will cure an advanced kidney malad Y
and the disease arising tberefrom-al>
though many of them know from crowns
ing proof that Warmers Safe Cure will
but uhscrupulously treat symptoms and
call them disease, when in reality
thth~know they are but symptoms.
! A few of the more honest physicians
admit that Warmers Safe Cure is a yaIu-
mankind. but say, in so many words,
when asked why they do not prescribe
it, that they cannot, according TO their
code.
Nevertheless, the world is fast becom-
ing satisfied that the cure for kidney and
| liver diseases, in whatever form or con-
dition has been discovered. and there Is
no doubt but what Warmers Safe Cure
and its fame will live long after such big
otry as we have instanced is dead and
buried.
The late eminent physician and writer
DR.. j. q. Holland. published In "Scrib'
ners Monthly" and showed his opinion
OF such bigotry. and was no doubt salts
fed that Atlantis might possibly be dis
covered in a proprietary medicine. wher
he wrote edilorially, as follows:
Nevertheless. it is a fact that many ot
the best proprietary medicines of the day
were more successful than many of thu
physicians, and most of them, it shoulC
be remembered, were first discovered ol
used in actual medical practice. When
however. any shrewd person. knowing
their virtue. and foresceing their popu.
larity. secures and advertises them, then
in the opinion of the bigoted, all virtue
| went out of them"
