An American Discovery,
John MOI row, an Eminent Chemist of
Springfield, o., Finds a Remedy
That Promises to Revolutionize
the Practice of Medicine.

The present year will always be a notable
one in the history of the nineteenth century
for the many wonderful discoveries it records.
Every branch of science has made great strides,
the most remarkable of which, perhaps, have
been made in the practice of medicine. Now
comes the information that John Morrow, an
eminent chemist OF Springfield, Ohio, has dis
covered a remedy that promises to be almost
infallible in curing all diseases of the kidneys:
So many of the most important advances OF
mt deal science are made by foreign scientists
that such report is not only OF great import
but highly gratifying as well.
Morrows discovery, while the true lngredl :
ents have not yet been published, is i'm the
form of yellow tablet and is known to the
medical world as Morrows kidneoids.
This remarkable remedy has been tried in
some of the most severe cases of chronic and
acute diseases of the kidneys, ard in each ease
has quickly produced the most beneficial re-
suits.
The fact that death from Bright's disease
shows daily increase is an unpleasant indi-
cation that disorder of the kidneys is fast be-
coming an affiiction OF the human race and any
remedy that promises sure relief is indeed a
blessing to mankind.
The symptoms OF deranged XII neys are too
apparent to require a physician S diagnosis:
pain in the side and back, aching bones, con-
tinual feeling of languor are followed by i'm
paired vision, loss of appetite, swelling of the
hands and feet and so on until Brghts dis
ease gets hold.
1t is so insidious in its attack that the busy
man or woman too often associates the symp-
toms with some trifiing ailment until the de
velopment of the disease causes a complete
collapse. With Morrow Kidneoids it IS in
tended to remedy all this by enabling. any one
to stop the progress Of the disease and effect a
permanent cure without recourse to physi-
clan or the abandonment of their duties.
1t is said that one of the largest drug con
Germs in the United States is negotiating for
the absolute control of Morrow's Kidneoids,
which they intend placing in every drug store,
where it can be procured by any one without
the necessity of securing a physicians pre-
scription.

seldom the result of present trouble or

those who look ahead and climb noun
tains before they arrive at them. Reso-
lutely build wall about to-day and live
within the Enclosure; the past may have
been hard. sad, or wrong-it is over.
The future may be like the past. but

not live to meet tiff she does she will

should concern herself is to-day, its sun

Their was not inclined toward being

do not mean to say he was in any way
void Of ambition. IL seems to me that
his life best tells the story of how he
felt in this regard.
The more i recall the days when |
was with my father the more it seems
to me that people only caught a glimpse
of the real man. To others than his in
innate friends he was genial and open
hearted but to those who were close
TO him there was apparent a strong
and steady current of genuine human
sympathy that the outside world never
knew of.
One of the real cares of my father
when president were the social duties
that devolved upon him. How they did
fret him He was man TO whom the
necessary frivolities of society did not
appeal. He enjoyed observation far
more than the ordinary conversation
one takes part in in all social affairs.
Some persons, have fancied, or used
to fancy, wrongfully believed this TO
be due to a certain contempt of fash
ionable society. It's a mistake to think
this. My father, as | know, realized
that such matters were a necessity TO
the world. They bored him, it is true,
but he never considered that a reason
why they should be discouraged.
think my father believed the great
est tribute a man could receive was the
thorough love and trust of his family.
All my memories of him are unclouded
with thoughts Of neglect or lack of
tenderness. In the days when his cares
seemed only to multiply he kept his
worries away from us.
First of all, however, he valued his
name and reputltion-valued them
above all things in the world.
That is my father as he seems to me
when the memories of years come back.

great that the thoughts of his family

Der as a child how my smallest troubles
were always thought by him Of enough
consequence for consideration.
1t was never my fathers custom dur
ing the years he was president TO per-
nit national affairs to interfere with
those of his home. That same steadi-
ness of thought and realization of what
seems to me the eternal fitness of things
caused him to keep the home outside
the circle of care. Although most per-
sons thought his face impressive, it al
ways indicated the moment he came to
us that he felt for time the burden
had been removed and that he was free
to put aside the worries and annoy
ances that public life brought to him.
Never was there an instant that any

How 20 Make Neat Piece OF Furni-

Anyone who is at all handy with tools
can make the framework for quite a
pretty piece Of furniture in a very short
time with a few strips of wood and
some iron or wooden brackets. This
would be a good occupation for the
boys some Saturday or afternoons after
school if there is time after the chores
are done. Girls can do this sort of work
quite as well as boys if they have proper
tools. In the industrial schools now
adays girls are taught the use of tools.
etc, and it is useful knowledge.
The framework should be made after
the general plan of the cabinet in the
accompanying illustration. The up
right and cross bars need not be more
than seven-eighths of an inch square
and the shelves may be made of half
inch stuff. All may be made of pine
and stained TO initiate any wood de-
sired. Cherry is very pretty in effect.
