Lost in the Storm

One of our local editors clipped from
/ II a'5ing magazine extracts from vivid
| description of a western blizzard which
we have taken the liberty the publish and
at the sa ne time suggest to H. H. War
er i O.. the proprietors of the cele-
! brated Warmers Safe Cure, the feasibili-
/ ty of taking therefrom an extract for
! the introduction of one of their telling
| advertise neAts. The following is the
! description:
! AT the close of dark day in January
/ Il solitary horseman weuds his way
| across the open prairie in one of our
| western territories. He passes at long
| Intervals the lone cabin of the hardy
| fr0ntiersman. Two or three old settlers
OF whom he has inquired the way, have
/ warned him that storm is approach
| ing; and one OF them, with true western
| hospitality, urges him to find shelter in
his cabin for the night. But he declines
the protfered kindness and urges his
tired horse forward. %%* The sky
grows suddenly dark ~ He decides
to seek shelter. X i 4 The storm increas-
es IN its fury. ** X The rider dismounts
to warm his fast chilling limbs. ***
Can scarcely breathe. Blindness comes
on. DrOwsiness steals over him. The
end Is near. ~ He is lost in the biz
| zard."
There is no doubt that the terror
which selzes the bewildered traveller is
similar to that which overcomes one
when he learns that he is suffering from
an advanced Kidney Disease, and is in
formed that he is in the last stages Of
| Bright's disease. At first he is inform
ed that he has slight kidney affection.
Later he begins to feel tired Slight
headache. Fickle appetite. Failure
of the eye-sight. Cramp in the calf of
legs. WakefulnesS. Distressing nerv-
| BUSINESS. Rheumatic and neuralgia
pains. Occasionally pain in the back.
Scanty, dark colored fluids, with scald-
ng sensation. Gradual failure of
strength.
Any of the above symptoms signify
kidney affection, but he is told that he
is all right. His physician treats him
for symptoms and calls it a disease,
when in reality it is but symptom of
| Kidney trouble. He may be treated for
Rheumatic or Neuralgia pains, heart
| affection, or any other disease which he
| patient has putting under the eyes,
OLE LlO OlouLlIlS Vi ltlC tillhlCS anu
| His physician may inform him that it is
but the accumulation of blood in his
! ankles for want of proper exercise.
The blOat continues and reaches his
! body.
Then he is informed he has dropsical
| troubles, and is tapped once or twice.
| He notices it is difficult to breathe
owing to irregular action of the heart,
and finally is informed that he has a
| slight attack of Bright's Disease. Soon
| his friends are notified that his is an
| advanced case of Bright's Disease, and
| that he can live but short time. HIS
| honorable and dignitied 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 well that the profession
acknowledge they have no remedies for
the cure of Kidney Disease.
At last the patient sutfocates is
smothered - and dies from dropsical
trouble. Or perhaps the disease may
not take the form of dropsical ten
dency, and the patient dies from apo
plexy, paralysis, pneumonia or heart
trouble.G it may take the form OF
| blood poisoning. In each form the enc
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 a
SLIGHT kidney affection.
The newspapers have published the
dangers Columns of facts have beer
printed of men dying from advanced
Kidney Disease or Bright's Disease
His friends and physician look around
with horror and regret for seeming neg
lect, but he is lost. He did not heed the
warning that storm was approaching
He declined the proffered hospitality
and recklessly went forward into danger
He struggled manfuly for a time, but
his strength failed, he grew gradually
weaker and he was lost to the world
For in blizzard, but from the terrible
malady which is almost daily occurring
in every community, and which is doc
tored as symptom instead of what il
is,-a mortal disease unless properly
treated.
