OVER THE CATARACT.

When the brave Stanley aud his tireless
folio "ers were puehing their way into Cen
trail Africa, they came one day, 10 the bank
of mighty river. FOOtsore aud weary
they quickly launch their boats, and find
rest and change in floating upon the smooth
surface OF the stream.
Soon, however, the watchful eye of the
great explorer sees unmistakable signs of
the near presence of a cataract. The cur
rent grows swift, tiny bubbles float by.
The signal is given to land and the party
seeks safety ON the low, shelving bank.
One daring spirit, however, pushes his
little canoe into the middle of the stream
and goes reso'utely forward, with the
seeming intention of finding whether the
river is navigable.
In vain his comrades shout and gesticu-
late, rushing wildly along the river bank
in pursuit. Not until the loud thunder OF
falling water breaks upon his ear does he
attempt TO turn.
Alasl it ia too late
The oars ale wrenched from his hands,
the boat is tosssd wildly about, a mere
atom IN the seething waters, and IN brief
moment, which seems an age TO the look
ers on, 1t Is dashed to pieces against huge
boSlder on the very brink of frightful
preeipice.
In vain our comrades are kindly warn
ing us Of our danger. Our columns have
ofieD portrayed the fearful scouree that
surrounds us Often we hear the txprts-
sion rs this fearful scouree more preva-
lent than in olden times?"
We say No"
In Brutus and Julius Caesars time, in
the dark ages, We read of powerful men be-
ing stricken down. The same obstacles
are met. The victim sUccumbs to the dis
ease. The recent discoveries of the micro
scope has developed the real cause of so
many terrible fatalities and brought ont
the fact that macy Of the symptoms which
ere called disease are but symptoms OF
kidney disorder.
People do not die because of the kid
neys ulce.atiDg and destroying the spinal
column, but because the poisonous waste
matter is not extracted f.oin the blood as
it passes through the kidneys, the only
blood purifying organs, but remains, fore
ing iis way through the system, attacking
the weakest organ.
The doctors csll this disease, when in
reality 1t is but n sym ptOm.
Understanding ttis, the reason why
WaIner's Ssfe Cure cures 80 many common
diseases is plsin. 1t removes the causes of
disease by putting the kidneys in healthy
condition; enables them TO perform their
functions and remove the poisonous acids
from the blood; parties the blood and pre-
vents the poisonous matter coursing
through the system and attacking the
weaker organs and producing a malady
which the unsusps citing victim fears is, and
the hearfless practitioner pronounces, q
disease, because Of his inability to re-
move the cause.
He avoids the real cause and keeps his
patient in ignorance because of his inabil-
ity to cope with an advanced kidney diff
Guilty.
Any honest practitioner will admit that
there is nothing laid down in the old OF in
the modern medical works that 10 a specific
for advanced kidney disorder. HIS bigotry
aud code prevent him prom publicly adopt
ing any preparation not discovered by his
kind, aud not recommended by his in
structors 25 or 30 years before. He forgets
that this is progressive world, and that
moet Of the great scientific and medical
discoveries of the present day have been
made outside of TIE medical profession.
The public, knowing these facts, should
heed the warning and geek safety from the
great danger that surrounds them and
look for help outside the profession too
bigoied and too self-reliant to learn or
coucsde that science is outstripping their
materia medica ard leaving them and
their obsolete methods far behind.
