RETAIN YOUR SENSES!
Gould You IF You Were Confined
in an Asylum?
Some Interesting Facts from q Prominent
Scientific Man Who Has Had Most
Valuable Experience.

| We sometimes see Ill the papers thrill
! ing account of where perfectly sane per
| son has been confined in an asylum. Think
of it, readerl How long would you re.ain
! your senses if you were confined with
! number of lunatics, night and day, and yet
| think of the physicians in charge of these
patients who are compelled, day by day and
year by year, to live among them What
wonderful opportunities they have for
! studying characteristics and vagaries;
what a wonderful chance for learning the
miseries of life and how best to overcome
| them.
We are brought to these reflections by
conversation lately had with DIR. j. C.
| Spray, of 163 State Street, Chicago. For
nearly ten years Doctor Spray was in
charge of the Jefferson, now Dunning, In
etitute, at Dunning, Ill. This tremendous
institution contained about twelve hundred
patients in the Insane Department, and if
| teen hundred in the infirmary. Among this
| large number of persons there were vast
| number Of physical ailments. DR.. Spray,
| speaking about it, said:
| Il traced the great cause for most Of the
: mental and indeed physical disorders very
: carefully, and while some authorities make
an estimate that seventy-fve per cent of
| the people in the United States are afflicted
| with some form of kidney disease, do not
! think that the rate is so high, taking all
| ages into consideration. Before middle life
| it is less than seventy-fve per cent but
after middle life 1t is, should think, fully
| that percentage
This is something terrible, Doctor Few
| people can certainly be aware that so large
| a percentage exists"
| The Doctor thought a moment and then
| said: 1t is fact not generally recognized
| that where n person has diseased kidneys

would strike at the root of the matter and

| there would be fewer patients in the asy-

/ of all paresis cases had kidney difficulties. y
| What have you found. Doctor. to be the
standard and most reliable remedy in such
! CGses.''
| DR. Spray spoke with great confidence

| l tried various remedies, and after long
| and exhaustive trial, finally decided that

and even in the advanced conditions it al
