Tic Life are Overcome.
WASHINGTON, April 13-The absorbing
excitement of congress and the interest
caused by varying schemes and various
measures have been oyershadowed Of late
in Washington by the revelation of the
alarming death rate among public men,
and the additional fact thai III nearly
every case the cause of the death can be
traced to one source. Congreeman Spring.
er's dangerous and long-continued illness,
the sudden death Of Senator Plumb, and
Mr.. Blaine's constant ill health have mus
tered from the grave the memory Of an
army of public men who have died in the
harness.
Senator Beck dropped insensible in the
Potomac depot on the exact spot where
President Garfield was shot.
Secretary Folger worked to the last, and
died without warning.
Secretary Window died while speaking
at a banquet.
Secretary Chandler was found dead in
his bed at the Grand Pacific hotel.
Senator Tom Corwin expired at Tecep-
ton while talking with Salmon P.9Chase,
Ben Wade, Senator SChenck and John
Sherman.
The Hon. Hannibal HamIin died at the
club while chatting with his friends.
Minister Pendleton passed away while
seated in a railway train.
Senator Charles Sumner, Massachusetts
pride, died suddenly, working faithfully to
the hour of his death.
Senator Simon Cameron feels the mys-
teTious creeping of paralysis and falls in
arms Of his friends.
Salmon p. Chase passed away peacefully
while seated at his desk with his pen in
his hand.
/, 1t has dawned upon the public men of
the country, the heads of departments in
Washington, and discerning people gener-
ally, that there must be some one great
reason for all of those untimely deaths. Tt
was with view, If possible, of solving
this problem that called upon number
OF prominent men, the results of which
are given herewith. 1t is we'll known that
one of the nations greatest men is Gen. b.
~. Tracy, secretary of the navy, and that
no man in Washington has worked harder,
more perslstently, or more effectively. His
timely and efficient work in building up
our national defense Wheu the question of
war with Chill was being agitated, must
necessarily have brought a great strain up
on his system. He was found, however, at
the head OF the navy department, and in
very good humor. Referring to the sub
ject Gen. Tracy said:
II am in good health and spirits at pres
ent. Several years ago, however, 1 was so
fully impressed with the idea that had
uric acid in my blood that took good care
and good medicine to prevent its increase
OF continuance"
May I ask, General, what course you
adopted R"
81 had heard Of many things, but Il de
4ermined TO try one especially. [ found it
all that desired, and, although that was
some time since, am, as you see, well
today, although I am still taking the same
medicine, which is Warmers Safe Cure"
Colonel Daniel Grosvenof, the chief of
the First Division of the Conptroller's
Office Of the United States Treasury, said
Il have had an unusual opportunity to
watch the condition of public men and the
strains which public life brings. Many
prominent men break down suddenly, and,
while this may also be true of other walks
IN life, 1T seems especially true of Wash
1ngton. My experience has shown that
one remedy has proven more beneficial for
the strains of life in the case of public men
than any other known discovery. That
remedy is Warmers Safe Cure. The most
remarkable instance of its power is that
of Mr.. S. Henderson Wilkinson, the well
known pension attorney. His restoration
to health through'its use was simply mar
velous. 7 myself believe in it implicitly. u
Congressman JIG. BeIden, of New York,
when approached upon the subject, said
Ex-Governor AlEord, of Syracuse, N.
n, and also ex-speaker of the house,
furnished the most wonderful instance Of
the fact that public man could withstand
the strains of public life and yet live to
green old age. Few men have ever been
sicker than Senator Alyord was, but he is
now hale and hearty His recovery is due
entirely to Warmers Safe Cure, which is
certainly all the commentator of any dis
coyery that could be required"
Mr.. Il. III. Egleston, judiciary Division,
Comptroller's Office, United States Treas
ury, said:
Ten years ago 7 was ill-very i'll with a
disease pronounced by my attendant ply
sician to be incipient Bright's disease. The
treatment failed to benefit me, and grew
steadily and alarmingly worse. Under the
advice of friends [ began to use Warmers
Safe Cure, and have been in perfect health
ever since. | am glad to state this, because
It may save the life of Others"
Senator B. *. Bruce cordially answered
inquiries:
Ny gratitude is due to Hon. H. lei. War
ner, manufacturer Of the Warner Safe Cure,
for the wonderful recovery which I have
experienced through the use of his medi-
cine, I am very well today, and believe
many public men might preserve their
health and prolong their lives by the use
of this great remedy"
The same sentiment can be found all
over Washington, and there is scarcely
desk in the treasury or other departments
where bottle of this remedy cannot be
found. Its popularity here is due wholly
to what it has accomplished.
