Chicago Journal
We sometimes see in the papers ,
thrilling account Of where . perfeotI,
sane person has been confined in Al
asylum. Think Of it, reader! How
long would you retain your senses il
you were confined with . number o.
lu"atics, night aud day; and set thinl
Of the physicians in charge Of these
patients vile are compelled, day b.
day aud year BY year, to live among
thin. What wonderful opportunitie
they have for studying characteristic,
and vagaries; what \ wonderful
chance for learning the m,ssries of lite
and how best to overcome them.
We are brought to these reflections
by . conversation lately had with Dr..
J. =. Spray, of 1913 State Street,
Chicago. For nearly ten years Doctor
Spray was in charge of tie Jefferson,
now Dunni"g, Institute, At Donning,
Ill. This tremendous institution con
tanned about twelve hundred pssieuts
in the Insane Department, and fifteen
hundred in the iu6rmsry. Among
this large number Of persons there
were vast number of phi, steal ais
ments. Dr.. Spray, speaking about it,
said:
~ traced the great cause for most
OF the mental aud indeed physical
d.. or iers very carefully; aud while
some authorities make an estimate
that seventy Ave per cent. of the PEG.
pie IN the United States are afflicted
with some form of kidney disease, l
do not think that the rate 10 90 high,
taking all ages into consid Grafton.
Before middle life it is less than
seventy i've per cent, but after middle
life it is, ! should think, fully that
percentage"
"rhis is something terrible, Doctor.
Few people can certainly be aware
that 30 largo = percentage exists?"
The Doctor thought moment and
then said:
sit is fact not generally reoog-
nized that where person has diseased
kidneys and the organs fail to perform
their functions Of removing the waste
and the impurities from the system, il
soon produces melancholis. A
result our asylums are filed to over.
flowing, while if the people would
strike at tie root Of the matter aud
see that their kidneys were in good
order. there would be fewer patients in
the asylums. have noticed that a
large portion Of al paresis cases had
kidney difficulties"
"What have you found, Doctor, to
be the standard, and most reliable
remedy in such cases?"
DR.. Spray spoke with great conf
dencs. He said: "Having 90 many
cases to treat, tried various remedies,
and after a long and exhaustive trial,
finally decided that Warmers Safe
Cure was tho best, most effective and
most reliable remedy. l found it
specially reliable in cases Of iucip,ent
Bsight's disease. II 10 certain to stop
it; aud oven in the advanced condi-
tons it allays the disease, and to my
surprise at first, cured many cases.
Before structural changes set in, it is
certain to cure, If properly admin.
istered."
"Has your experience while at the
asylum, Docter, been confirmed in
your general practise since leaving it ?"
"Yes, have occasion to use the
Safe Cure almost daily. Whenever |
find traces OF albumen in the urine of
= patient, prescribe the Safe Cure +,
aud in nearly every instance where |
notice indications OF nervous troubles,
! anslyze the urine, and almost in
variably find that it is caused By some
affection Of tho kidneys. now have
= patient to whom am giving the
Safe Cure, and find that il is having
the desired effect. Some time ago q
gentleman came to me, who had been
examined for life insurance, aud traces
Of albumen were found. l advised
the use cf the Safe Cure, and he
passed tho examination without diff.
ficulty after having used it."
~ understand, then, Doctor, tina,
you attribute largo percentage Of
the ills Of life to some disease OF the
kidneys, and that you have found the
remedy of which you speak the
most eff c,ive in such csses?"
ayes, | have no hesitation in saving
that Warner's Safe Cure has my un.
qualified endorsement. l uss it con.
s'antly, and would not do 30 unless
thought it possessed curative quail,
tiles"
The high standing, wide experience
and great success Of DR.. Spray make
his words exceedingly impressive.
