Men of Mark Who Gather
and Transmit the News.
AND HOW THEY EXHAUST
Some Personal Sketches and incidents OF
Brain Workers in the Highest
Walks of Life.

The reader of the daily paper who sits
in his cosy home and is informed Of what
is transpiring in every quarter of the
globe, seldom realizes the amount of
actual labor necessary to ascertain, collect
write, transmit and print this wonderful
mass of news.
Mr.. William Henry Smith, formerly
manager of the Associated Press, is in the
prime of life, and possesses a mind clear
as to the requirements of the public Mr..
Smith has always been an arduous work
er, and 1t is by no means surprising that
his health should, in the past, have suh
cred more or less thereby. The mental
strain necessary to the performance of
his duties caused difficulties of digestion
which are not easily overcome, and also
uremic collie. both painful and exhaustinR.
All attempts TO overcome these tenden-
cieS by force of will power failed, and he
consulted eminent physicians, among
them DIR. Rarthol, of Philadelphia. In
spite, however. of the care and skill OF
these practitioners, he grew worse con
stantly. The result can best be described
in his own words. He said:
"My brother, c. w. Smith, manager Of
the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad, came
to VISIT me, and, seeing my condition,
took upon himself to conduct my case,
and so secured a preparation which,
since learned he had used successfully
himself and in his family. began its
use, and commenced improving at once
MS Improvement continued until now
/ am we'll, and wholly through tn infu-
ence of Warmers Safe Cure. 1 have
since then used the remedy with good
results in my family, and keep it on
hand constantly. l consider 1t remark
able medicine"
Mr.. George Alfred Townsend, the
famous newspaper correspondent, whose
letters, written over the nom de plume of
Gath" have attracted such wide atten-
ton, said to the writer: while in Eng
land | had pleasant visit with ex- Gov.
S. B. Packard, our Consul at Liverpool
We were remarking on the death of
number of distinguished Americans,
when the Governor said: Townsend,
can't see why SO many of our public men
are passing away, victims of one dread
scourge. There is no need of their dying
if they will consent to avail themselves
of what has been provided for them, as
have Gov. Packard went on to des-
cribe his experience, and l found his
symptoms cOrrespOnded almost exactly
to my own. / soon afterward returned
to America, began the same treatment,
and when l had taken a number of bottles
of Warmers Safe Cure-the remedy Gov.
Packard used and commended to me so
strongly-I, too, was rid of backache,
bad fluids, tired feelings, nervous pros
tratiOn, irregular appetite, thick head
and today am as sound a nut. 1t indi-
Gated my disorder and removed it entire
ly. l regarded it as a godsend to this
country, where Bright's disease and all
other kidney disorders are so prevalent"
The above statements are not from OBJ
scure sources, but from gentlemen in the
most exalted stations of trust and respon-
sibility, and the affirmations they make
are the results of actual observation.
Does it not stand to reason, therefore,
that the article of which they speak is a
most valuable one, and such as may be
used with great benefit by all who are
suffering?
