Safe and Sound.

The word "safe" is from the Latin "salu
are" to save, preserve. Safe indicates
freedom from harm or danger; sound, I'M
scathed, unchanged, secure, whole, as, safe
from disease.
1t is likewise regarded as comforting
safety, to be relied upon. It's synonyms
are secure, unendangered, sure. ''Salu-
tary'' is from the same root, meaning
health, safety. The term is defined by
photographers as wholesome, healthful,
promoting health; contributing to some
beneficial purpose: salubrious, useful, adj
vantageous, profitable. favorableness to the
preservation of health and pros perity.
How fitting the word as applied to War
ner's Safe Remedies, which meet every re-
quirement of both materia medica and
etymology.
Their use protects from disease, and is a
safeguard to the entire race.
Warmers Safe Cure has been extensively
used in this and every other civilized
country, and is recognized as the most
beneficial remedy known to man. 1t has
long been recognized Though not publicly
by the medical profession the most va.u-
able compound for the general restora-
ton of the human system, by putting the
kidneys in a healthy condition, as when
these great organs are restored to healthy
action then the poisonous waste matter is
expelled by the only blood-purifying organs
of the system.
Few are aware that the kidneys are the
only organs that can purify the blood
Fancy the danger of poisoned blood con-
tinually coursing through the body-65 gal
Ions of blood per hour. or 4S barrels per
day, pass through the kidneys, yet the un.
suspectiug regard them as of little i'm
portance until they are stricken down. Poi
soEed blood engenders general debility,
pneumonia, lung and bronchial troubles,
paralysis, apoplexy, heart complications,
rapidly failing eye-sight, scrofulous and
cancerous sores, and other serious mala-
dies. which might be averted if the kidneys
properly performed their work and ex-
PEELED the poisonous, waste matter.
When the medical profession will strike
at the root instead of hewing the branches,
then we can hope for happy relief from
many of the ills of the present day. When
diseases are called by their right names, and
the real causes of death are made known,
instead of death from symptoms of kidney
disease, it is then that the people will be-
come more fully aware of the terrible
fatality of diseases caused by imperfect
action of the kidneys.
We have often used our columns for the
benefit of our readers to proclaim the merits
of the great remedy heretofore mentioned,
which is daily becoming more popular, and
we can but repeat the words so often used
in their advertisements, which are very
simple and very easy, and within the reach
of all our reaGers-viz., to ask your friends
and neighbors about it.

THE HUMAN BODY.
'"eca' Elements and Compounds of
Which It Is Made I'm

dement's and Compounds of
which 1t Is Made Up.
one of the most interesting coIlec-
tlons In the National Museum at Wash
hgton Is that composed of specimens
and charts illustrating the composition
o1 our bodies and of the foods which
nourlsh them. These specimens and
charts were explained recently in a
lecture by Prof w. o. Atwater. Upon
the platform were arranged a larpe
hulhoer OF bottles. These, the lectur-
er explained, contained specimens of
the chemical elements and compounds
OF which bodies are made up. Oxygen
forms one-fifth of the air and about
slSty-two per cent of the body, so that
the body of an average man, say a man
weighing one hundred and fortv-eioht
pounds, contains about ninety-two and
one-half pounds of oxygen.
The quantity of hydrogen in the
body of such a man is about fourteen
and one-half pounds, and in the form
OF gas would fill about twentv-six hum
dred cubic feet; in other words. the
hydrogen in mans body, if set free
In the form of gas, would fill a room
twenty feet long, thirteen feet wide
and ten feet high. The same body
contains about thirty-one pounds of
carbon. These two elements, there
lore, together make up about one hun
dred and thirty-eight of the one hum
bred and forty-eight pounds
The principal compound is water.
more than one-half the weight of our
bones, three-quarters of the weight of
our muscles and seven-eighths of our
olood, or about three-ffths the weight
OF the whole body, are water.
Besides water, muscle, bones and
skin contain what chemists call ''pro-
teine' compounds. These consist
mainly of four chemical elements:
carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitro
gen. The albumen, or white of egg,
the caseine-curd-of milk, and myo-
sin, the basis of muscle, are proteine
compounds.
When country boys chew wheat, and
get what they call 'wheat-gum," they
make sort of chemical ANALYSIS in
their mouths, separating out the starch
and sugar, and some of the other in
gradients of wheat. The residue.
which they call wheat-gum. consists
chiefly of gluten, proteine substance.
A bottle containing about twenty
pounds of tallow was shown to illus
trate the fat in the average mans
body. Fat forms about fifteen per
cent. of the whole weight of the aver
age adult. The bodies of stout people
have more fat, and those of lean peo-
pie less.
Our foods. like our bodies, contain
water, proteine and fats, and also two
other classes of compounds: carbohy-
drates and mineral matters. Starch
and sugar are carbohydrates. Vege-
table foods, such as wheat, corn and
potatoes, contain a large proportion
of carbohydrates. In meats the pro-
portion of carbohydrates is small.
There are small quantities of carbo-
hydrotes in the human body. Thus
inosite, sometimes called muscle
sugar"-a substance somewhat similar
to ordinary SUGARS found in the
muscles and other parts of the body.
Our bones and teeth contain q. great
deal of phosphate of lime and other
mineral substances. There are min
eral matters in all parts of the body
and in all our foods.-Youth's Com

Seated in the deep bay window,
HID from prying mortals view,
Curtains drawn, which, by their swayicg,
Let the lamp-gleams filter through.
You can wager we were happy
In our quiet tete-a-tete,
Little dreaming of the rascal
Ever watchful, willy fate.
Trusting to our strict observance
OF a strictly formal tone.
Just how far We kept its precepts
Chaperone might ne'er have known.
But my witching, needless charmer,
How she froZe my heart with fear;
Making audible one question:

A Little Girl.


Ny lady trips the stairs adown
To greet the rays of morning,
Which glisten round her head, a crown,
Her natal day adjoining.
What ages ms lady? Just thirteen.
You d think she was far older.
Her witching eyes have grown mot keen
Her teens, too, make her colder.
Alas! how childhood, with 4 whirl,
From yesterday is feeting!
called her then ga little glrl;''
To-day she scorns this greeting.
Fit on, my lady, through theyears
Which give 10 youth their plenty
or love and grief, of hopes and feass,
Till age proclaims you twenty.
Then, as each year time steals a curl
And d mple from you doubt ng,
Me'hinks I'll call you little gfrl'
Without disdainful pouting.

A Dangerous Letharpv.

The forerunner of a train of evils, which
too often eliminate fatally, is inactivity or
lethargy of the kidneys. Not only is Bright's
disease, diabetes, gravel, or some other
dangerous integral disease of the organs
themselves to be apprehended, but dropsical
dlffusions from the blood, rheumatism and
govt, are all traceable to the non-removaI
from the blood by the kidneys of certain i'm
purities. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters dep
urates the blood, renders the kidneys
active and prevents their disease.

Departed Years.
The years departing one by one,

That shall spend beneath the sun
In joy or bitterness.

SO fond1y loved. are gone;

Why should cling to faded flowers
