RETAIN YOUR SENSES.
COULD YOU IF YOU WERE CON-
FINFD IN AN ASYLUM.
Some Interesting Facts From a
Prominent Scientific Man Who
Has Had a Most Valuable Ex-
perience.
Chicago Journal.

We sometimes see in the papers a thrill
ing account of where a perfectly sane per-
son has been confined in an asylum. Think
oft. readerl How long would you retain
number of lunatics, night and day, and
yet think of the physicians in charge of
these patients h are compelled, day by
day and year by year, to liye among them.
What wonderful opportunities they have
for studying characteristics and vagaries;
what a wonderful chance for learning the
miselies OF life and how best to overcome
them.
We are brought to these reflections by a
conversation lately had with DR.. &c. Spray,
of 1853 State Street, Chicago. For nearly ten
years Doctor Spray was in charge of the
Jefferson, now Cumming Institute, at Dun
ming, III. This tremendous institution con-
tanned about twelve hundred patients in
the Insane Department, and fifteen hun
number of pr ons there were a vast num-
Der of physical ailments, DR.. Spray, speak
ing about it said:
Il traced the great cause for most Of the
mental and in Iced physical disorders very
carefully, and while some authorities make
an estimate that seventy,ive per cent. OF
the people in the United States are afflicted
with some form of kidney disease, l do not
think that the rate is so high, taking all
ages into consideration. Before middle life
it is less than sevensy-five per cent. but aft
er middle life it is, l should think, fully
that percentage"
people can certainly be aware that so large
a percentage ~exists?"
The Doctor thought a moment and then
said: ut is a fact not generally recognized
that where a person has diseased kidneys
and the organs fail to perform their func-
tions of removing the waste and the impur-
tiles from the system, it soon produces me-
ianG n dnerd As result xS y a; y tha are nso fill,
wou)! strike g. the root ofthe matter and
see that their idneys were in good order,
there would be fewer patients in the
asylums. I have noticed that a large por-
ton OF all par sis cases had kidney Difficult
ties"
THAT have you found, Doctor, to be the
standard and most reliable remedy in such
cascs?'
He aid: III ing so many cases to treat,
l tried variol remedies, and after a long
and exhausti> trial, finally decided that
Warmers Safe Cure was the best, most effec-
tive and most reliable remedy. ] found it

and even in tt e advanced conditions it al
lays the dis a {, and to my surprise at first,
cured many cases. Before structural
changes set in; it is certain to cure, if pro-
HAS your experience while at the asy-
lunl, Doctor, been confirmed in. your gen
eral practice since leaving it?"
Yes I have occasion to use the Safe
Cure almost daily. Whenever l find traces
of albumen in the urine offs patient, l pre-
scribed the Safe Cure, and in nearly every
instance where l notice indications of nerv-
Gus torubles, l analyze the urine, and al
mort invariably find that it is caused by
some affection Of the kidneys. Inow have
a patient to whom l am giving the Safe
Cure, and find that it is having the desired
effect. Some time ago a gentleman came
to he, whvhad been examined for lite in.
surance, and traces of albumen were found.
I advised the use of the Safe Cure, and he
passed the examination without difficulty
after having used it,"
II understand, then. Doctor, that you
attribute q large percentage of the ills of
life to some disease of the kidneys, and
that you havc found the remedy of which
you speak the most effective in such
cases."
Eyes. l lave no hesitation in saying
that Warmers SAFE Cure has nry unquAli-
fled endorsement. l use it constantly,
and would not do so unless I thought it
possessed curative Qualities"
The high standing, wide experience and
great success of DIR. Spray make his words
exceedingly impressive. Their sincerity
cannot be questioned, and their truthful
ness is absolr''. Impressed with this fact,
and realizing the importance Of the same,
I nave transcribed his words in full and
give them herewith.
