WASHINGTON WORKERS.
And the Great Dangers That
Surround Them.
Senators Intorviowed-CoDsid Ex.
citemont Caused by the Sudden Break
ing Down of Many Prominent Men

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 15.-The ex-
citements OF Congress and the interest
caused by varying schemes and various
measures have been ovorshadowed of
late by tho revelation Of the alarming
death rate among public mon, and the
additional fact that in nearly every case
the cause can be traced to one source.
The sad and sudden death OF ex.Po.t-
master General Frank Hatton, who was
stricken at his desk aud died shortly
after wards, recalls the deaths of Secre-
ssries Folger, Window, Chandler and
Chase, and Senators Sumner, Beck. Cam.
eron and others.
Now 1t has dawned upon the minds
Of the public men that there must be
some one great reason for all these I'M
timely deaths, and it has been traced
directly to that great modern trouble
whlch seems To be natural scOurge,
Bright's disease Of the kidneys.
An interview with number of promi-
nent men on the subject shows the in.
terest they feel. Mr. j. Henderson
Wilkinson, the well-known pension
agent, said: Ten years ago was seiz d
with an attack OF Bright's disease while
at work In tho Treasury here. How bad
1 was you can understand when 1 say
that my hands became bloated and
actually cracked open. My limbs and
body were alternately swollen and col
lapse d. 1 could only creep across TIE
floor. Finally my physician said to me,
You are at deaths door with Bright's
disease. You may live a few weeks,
but there is absolutely no hope of your
recovery Upon the advice of the Rev
Por II In -
versity, began the use of Warmers
Safe Cure, which rescued me FROM tho
grave after the doctors had abandoned
all hope. 1 am certain that If men and
women generally realized the wonderful
power Of this great remedy there would
be less sickness, fewer deaths, longer
life and more happiness than at pres
ent"
Rev. DIR. J. e. Rankin, d. D., for
merly chaplain Of the Senate, con-
6rmed all that Mr.. Wilkinson had said
and cited many other cases that had
come under his notice where Warmers
SAT, Cure had restored the health of
men and women suffering from Bright's
disease. Congressman Belden, of New
YORK, Senator Bruce, Mr.. Egleston, OF
the Treasury Department., Senator
Black burn and others, all united in
similar state ments.
Wherever | went ! found tho testi-
mony the same. 1t was generally adj
mitted that the strains OF life were
wearing, but it is universally conceded
that for over grooming this condition, for
strengthening the vitality, toning the
health and prolonging the life. nothing
had ever been known equal to the great
remedy have above described.
MANY Of the citizans Of Evansville,
Indiana, are never without a bottle of

KINDNESS.

Henry Ward Beecher once said:
cam ong the Alps when the day is
done, and twilight and darkness are
creeping over fold and hamlet in the
valleys below, Mont Rosa and Mont
Blanc rise up above the darkness,
catching from the retreating sun some
thing of it's light, flushed with rose
color, exquisite beyond all words or
pencil, or paint, glowing like the gate
of heaven. And SO past favors and
kindnesses lift themselves up in the
memory, and long after the lower
parts of life are darkened by neglect
or selfishness or anger, high up above
all clouds, glow with divine radiance,
and seem to forbid the advance of
night any further"
We should remember that those
who have bad name in society need
the arm of kindness thrown about
them. Forsake them and they sink
lower. Les them go through life as
outcasts and they will regard them
selves as they are regarded. How
many young men and women sue
cumb to the storms of misfortune or
fall in the moral battle of when life,
a word or an outstretched hand would
save them! Sad it is, indeed, for us to
think of the thousands who are fam
ishing in this world for want of so
simple thing as a cup of cold water
in Jesus name from the hand of
friend! For want of it the moral
heavens of their lives become clouded
and their nights starless. They have
tried and found the effort fruitless.
But, if you can make such an one feel
that it is worth while to struggle on
you have touched the handspring of
all noble endeavor. If we only can
have some trusted friend who can
see some good in us and will tell us
so, we gain courage and hope, and
are glad to try again and again.

~ The Rev. Everett s. Stackpole,

missionary, has published book en-
titled -Four and Half Years in the

been a grave mistake. 1--WE have" he
says, wasted from first to last 1856, 900 in
