A QUERY.
What "Subscriber'' Would Like to
Know.

We have recently received letter
from one of our well-known subscribers
upon subject which we prefer to pub
lish for the perusal of our readers
anticipating that in doing some one
will relieve us of the responsibility of
answering Subscribers" questions.
Here is the letter:
'My Dear Editor: For several years
past | have been the recipient of sew
eral pamphlets issued from time to time
by Messrs. HI. H. Warner & Co., of
Rochester, N. Y, which, in addition to
containing an extensive treatise upon
kidney disease, its origin, usual
symptoms and growth, also includes
numerous testimonials from parties
whose fac-simile signatures are at
tached thereto, attestlng the
statement that they have been
individually relieved by the use
OF Warmers Safe Cure, which is pre-
pared by the above firm for the use of
persons so afflicted. Now, Mr.. Editor,
would like to know il the statements
made by those parties who testify to the
great good which Warmers Safe Cure
has done them, eau be relied on. They
seem honest enough from the way they
read. Warmers Safe Cure saved my
life after the doctors had given me up"
says John Doherty, 1873 north Main
street, Concord, N. II. II was given
up to die with Bright's Disease OF the
kidneys. The doctors said they could
do nothing for me. A friend advised
me to take Warmers Safe Cure, and my
family consider mo rs given back from
the grave" says Mrs. Carrie A. Fry, of
Wathena, Kan. DR.. l.. b. Rice, Of
Hanover, G. H., Va, says that War
ner's Safe Cure cured him OF Bright's
Disease"
1t strikes me that there is a good deal
OF sense in the claim which those
parties make that the doctors are treat
ing too many persons for wrong causes,
ana that oitentimcs, people are treated
| for consumption, brain, heart and nerv-
| Gus disorders, when they are suffering
| from kidney disease which should be
treated, as they say, by the use of War
ner's Safe Cure and as result, when
| disease is first removed therefrom, that
which is supposed to be disease III the
| lungs or other organs, will disappear.
Many OF my neighbors tell me that this
remedy has done much good for them
more good than their doctors. II kid
ney disease is the real cause OF so many
other diseases why, Mr.. Editor, don I
| the people who are afflicted with sick-
ness, insist upon more careful Inquiry
being made, in order that the true cause
may DO ascertainod, ana the proper
treatment givenl" SUBSCRIBER

LUMBER RATES.

and Excitement Prevails.
The local roads are considerably worked
up over the movement of the Chicago g.
Alton, in it's threatened reduction of cents
in the rate on lumber between Chicago and
Kansas City. This, they claim, will result in
the Iowa lines putting in the same rate, 10
cents, on lumber between Chicago and Oma.
ha. Chicago lumber merchants handle white
pine exclusively, and the southern and south
western territory is the producing center for
yellow pine The roads west of
the Missouri river maintain that the
Chicago roads, and the Chicago lumber mer-
chants are making this move in order that
they can shut out the dealers in yellow pine,
which is the principal grade of material used
in Omaha and points in the contiguous terri
tory. An official of the Missouri Pacific
said: LET the Alton keep on and it will find
us camping with it. 1t is not the Atoms
desire to put in low rates as much as 1t is
that OF the Chicago merchants Under the
the present rates we are able to bring the
pine INTO competition, and of course the re-
ducton from Is to 10 cents in the Chicago
freight rates would make material differ
ence But the Alton has not as yet obtained
the approval of the board of arbitration, and
