MISTAKES.
A Very YeXed Subject Clearly
Explained,

1t IL Most Surprising That Men and
Women should Not Have Understood
THIS Before. But Il is Fortunate That
They DO Now.
1T is surprising what mistakes even
some OF the best people in the world
make"
The speaker was one OF the greatest
doctors the world has ever known.
Take, for example, one Of the most
common things IN the world, namely a
cold. People speak OF taking cold /;
there is really no such thing A cold is
symptom, an effect, not a cause. Did
you ever know an absolutely well and
healthy person who took coldg 1 never
have, even under the greatest exposure.
Yes indeed cold is symptom, not q
cause
The gentlemen and lOdles to whom the
doctor was speaking exchanged looks Of
astonishment but they did not dispute
the words Of the learned man.
You may be surprised" he continued,
when | tell you that nine-tenths of all
colds occur because those great organs OF
the body, the kidneys, are out Of order
More men and women are troubled with
imperfect kidneys than with sny other
known form of disease. The unfortunate
thing about It is that they do not know
that this is their trouble Why2 Because
all difficulties. arrangements. and dis
eases Of the kidneys are usually without
any pain, in fact without any symptoms
whatever, and this proves just what
said at FIRST, namely, that "A cold is a
symptom >"
The looks Of amazsment which were
upon the faces OF his hearers remained,
while the doctor continued:
What ! say is true. If you have a
cold il the head, a cough, pain in tbe
muscles or joints, ~ you sneeze or wheeze,
do not try to doctor these symptoms, bat
90 at once to their cause, which Is in
variably the kidneys Use the best dis
covery of modern times for these organs,
which is Warmers Safe Cure Put your
kidneys in proper condition and any cold
however bad it may be, will disappear as
IL by magic Indeed" continued th'
doctor. most deliberately and earnestly

so disastrous. which has brought 81
much trouble into the world, would nevei
have had its run If the kidneys of thos'
who had suffered from il had been in per

unciogged, would have thrown the diseas
from the system so that the grip woulC

may seem, were true, and the remedy o

TIE letter headed Taking Advantage
OF the Laborer" IN another column is an
illustration Of one Of the evils Of the
mixture Of business with politics. It
was often stated by the slave-o wners
that the slaves were happy and contented
in slavery. That was true. IL was said
also that they were treated with the ut
most kindness, often indeed with af-
fection; that cases of cruelty were
rare. That was true also. But for all
that slavery was abolished, and the world
admits that It is better so. although some
Of the slaves have suffered as freedmen
It is precisely the same with industrial
slaves. It is offensive to tell the proteo.
tionists that they are slave drivers, but
they do things which have the same effect
which they themselves ascribed TO slave
driving.
