Coroner Donlin, who CHANGED to be look
ing out of the car window during the day,
saw at once that it was no common face that
glared at him. He left the train, went to
the house, and there found kneeling by the
window the stiffened corpse of a man. For
two days he had kept the vigil of the dead.
Awaking in the night, alone and oppressed,
he had struggled to the window, and, gasping
for breath, died. The coroner's examination
revealed the fact that death had been caused
by Brights disease of the kidneys, which
came u~nannounced, sudden and sure.
Sad Yes. but how common have these
sudden deaths become. You note them in
the local press every day. They give no
warning. There is a quick pain, a struggle
and all is over. Statistics show that 80 per
cent. of these sudden deaths are caused by
kidney disease. Slowly but surely these
great organs have been disintegrating and
when the climax comes it comes without
warning. But there were warnings. The
strange pains, peculiar sensations, and unac-
countable feelings were Natures warnings.
They may nave been considered only the
symptoms of a cold, but all the while disease
was working and death surely approaching.
Can nothing be done? Yes: exercise care.
Act promptly. Use something to sustain the
the kidneys. Do, as so many prominent ply
sicians are advising their patients to do, take
Warmers Safe Cure. If this great prepare
ton, which has saved so many men and
women from death by Bright's disase, were
not a well known household remedy and the
most popular in America, we might hesitate
to SO warmly endorse it, but being the only
absolute specific for this great modern dis
ease, it is commended most unhesitatingly.
This entire page could be filled with state
ments from prominent physicians in both
Europe and America of what the Safe Cure
has done to lessen Bright's disease, prevent
female complaints, and check the great ply
c;oo1 auiIc of q rnnIorO life H. iS no ordin-
airy medicine, but a scientific discovery
which has received more concentrations
than any other discovery of the present CEN
fury. The well known DR.. James D.. Bragg
says:-stWarner's Safe Cure has proved the
best medicine for humanity yet devised"
When the uncertainty of life is remem-
bered; when the certainty of disaster where
care is not exercised is realized the import
ance of the above truths shnald come home

an Experience Possible to Many
Others Who Read This Paper.

Early one morning the guards on the ele-
waited road in New York noticed a middle
aged man apparently kneeling beside an open
window. Although it was a raw and cold
morning, his head was uncovered. His eyes
seemed to be staring intently across the
street. All day long, as the trains Numbered
past, the man seemed still to be watching,
and even when night came on, a glimpse of
a white face could be seen staring out INTO
the darkness. The next morning the guards
were all on the lookout, and still the man
could be seen with his chin resting on the
back of his hand.
