ARE YOU CERTAIN?"
IN OTHER WORDS, JUST WHAT
Is YOUR CONDITION?
DON'T TAKE ANY CHANCES.

A Most Unusual Conversation With a
Great New York Professor Repro
duced Verbatim Does it Apply to
You?
New York Exchange.
am fortunate in knowing a pr0mi-
nent professor of this city. He is man
of deep research and worldwide p0pu-
larity. 1t is seldom that he unb0soms
himself, but he did so, to a circle of
friends and myself the 7'other evening.
This is what he said:
at is surprising how rapidly the con
ditions of life are changing in America. ="
"Do you mean, Professor, in the man
ner of living ?"
Yes, and also in the manner of dying.
The habits of life, the nature of work,
even our diet is different from what it
was fifty or even ten years ago"
DO you think then the change has
been for the better 2"
eyes and no. We undoubtedly have
a higher state of existence now than
formerly, but for this very reason we are
open to greater dangers. We have
provements."
"Do you consider them serious"
Undoubtedly. A greater strain or
pressure in life naturally brings greater
troubles. But, above all and beyond all,
is one great difficulty which may be cor
rectly called the modern disease. 1t is
common to both men and women, and
even children are not free from it. 1t is
the least understood and at the same time
the most dangerous of all known dis-
eases. 1t has no distinct symptoms of
its own, but has the symptoms #
nearly every other disease. Men and
women have been afflicted with it for
years and did not know what allied them.
They may have had peculiar pains, felt
out of sorts, irregularities, headache and
scores of other symptoms, and did not
know what was the matter until it was
perhaps too late"
''TO what do you refer, Professor"
Il refer to Bught's disease Of the kid
neys, which | consider nothing less than
a Modern Monster. It's great danger is
in the very fact that it is so insidious, so
sly If you please, and indeed so little
understood. Physicians seem baffied
when brought face to face with it, and
do not hesitate to admit that there is but
one known scientific and certain remedy
for it, whether in its first or last stages.
and that remedy is Warmers Safe Cure. :"
The professor paused for a moment
and reflected. Continuing be said:
"You may think that [ am radical in
making such statements, but | am not.
/ know whereof | affirm and know that
there are more men and women who have
disease of the kidneys in some one Of its
stages o-day, than any other known tr0u-
BILE, and | do not except consumption.
Why, do you know that many cases Of
so-called pneumonia are nothing less
than the last stages of Bright's disease?
And do you also know that if the kid
neys are in perfect condition it is almost
impossible for the lungs to be out of or
der, because the kidneys throw the
poison out of the system that accumu
lates upon and rots the lung tissue?
Take my word for it, there are thou
sands Of men, and perhaps more women,
VINO do not know it, but who are TO day
afflicted with kidney disease, and l only
wish they might be warned in time"
/ was much impressed by the Profess
sor's earnest words and reproduce them
as nearly as possible for the benefit of
any one who may perhaps be in such a
condition as he has described, and who
needs immediate help, and such help
Ouly as can be certain to save.
