Doctoring in the Dark.

No sensible surgeon will attempt the
performance of an operation involving
human life in room secluded from the
proper amount of light. A practitioner
will not attempt the diagnosis of COM
plicated disease unless he can see the
sufferer and make an examination upon
which to base his opinion relative to the
conrse of treatment necessary to bring
about a complete restoration of health.
Notwithstanding the improperly of
such action there seems to be great
deal of doctoring done in the dark.
By this it Is not intended that lit
eral meaning be inferred, but that a great
many mistakes are committed because of
the darkness which is the result Of igno>
rance. 1t needs no Illustrations to
demonstrate that gross ignorance
has caused many fatal mistakes
To be made in the treatment of dis
ease by those who profess to be learned
in the art of healing.
In many diseases several organs are
more or less implicated and what seems a
primary ailment may be one quite remote.
For instance, a severe headache may have
its origin In disturbed stomach. On
tie other hand, sickness al the stomach
may be caused bv blow on the head .
The seat of typhoid fever is in the upper
part Of the bowels. but most of its worst
symptoms are often in the brain
Symptoms of disease as well as diseases
themselves are oftentimes followers or
concomitants of some unsuspected or =
ganic disease and this is peculiarly true
OF lung, liver, brain and heart diseases in
general. for it is now known that they are
the result of kidney disease, which shows
its presence in some such indirect mans
Der.
Several years ago a gentleman became
convinced of the truth of this and
through his efforts the world has been
warned of kidney disease and as a result
of continued effort specific known as
Warmers Safe Cure was discovered. the
general use of which has shown it to be
Of inestimable benefit IN all cases where
kid ney treatment is desirable or necessa
ry.
When consumption is threatened see
TO it that the condition of the kidneys is
Immediately inquired into and if they are
found diseased cure them by an immedi-
ate use of Warmers Safe Cure and the
symptoms Of lung decay will rapidly dis =
appear.
There are too many instances already
recorded of the terrible results produced
by lack of knowledge concerning the
cause of disease, and human life Is of too
much Importance to be foolishly satritlced
to bigotry or ignorance.

A GOOD EXPERIMENT.

MERIDIAN, Miss. July IL, 1887. For
number of wears | have suffered untold
agony from the effects of blood poison
| had my case treated by several promi-
nent physicians. but received but little. if
any relief resorted to all sorts of pat
ent medicines. spending a large amount
of money, but yet getting no better. My
attention was attracted by the cures said
to have been affected by q. B. B., and
commenced taking it merely as an exper>
iment, having but little faith in the re-
suits. To my utter surprise soon COM
menced to improve. and deem myself to
day we'll and hearty person-all owing
to the excellent qualities of B. B. B. l
cannot commend it too highly to those
suffering from blood poison.
