Few People DO, and That Is Why a
Great Man Has Written This Note
of Warning.
Below is the synopsis Of an address given
by Prof. Marshall:
1T is a fact that, to-day, thousands of
people are within a foot of the grave and
they do not know it. Very many people
who read these lines realize that at times
they are unusually tired and cannot ac-
count for it. They feel duh and indefinite
pains in various parts of the body and do
not understand it. Perhaps they may think
1t is only cold which will soon pass
away.
Now, all the symptoms above described
and many more of a similar nature indi-
cafe the coming on of the worst physical
trouble that has ever been known to the
human race. These symptoms are, in fact
nothing less than the forerunners Of that
dreadful Brights disease of the kidneys
which so often fastens itself upon the con
stitution before the victim is aware. II
is dangerous to both men and women, es-
peciaily women, is nearly as hereditary as
consumption, quite as common, and fully
as fatal"
sidered tncurable, but a few years since
much excitement was caused among sci
entists and the medical profession by a
discovery which actually cured this fear
ful disease even in it's last stages. Doc
tors were amazed at its power and gladly
welcomed it. That discovery is known
among men of science the world over as
warmers Safe Cure, and it is no exag-
gera1on to state that it has accomplished
more In the field of health than anything
which has ever been brought to the at
tention of the medical profession or the
general public.
But the great popularity of Warmers
safe cure is due not so much to the fact
that 1t has rescued the victims of Bright S
disease from the brink of the grave as
that it drives away the first symptoms
Of this dread malady whenever they
appear and restores the sufferer to per-
feet health l 90 not hesitate to implore
everyone who reads these words not to
neglect the slightest symptoms. of kidney
dlti1culty. Certain suffering and prob
ably death will be the sure result of
such neglect and no one can afford to
hazard such chances

Atlanta. Ga. March 21.-The commission
house of Davis. Barnes & Co. At lS Souta
Broad street, was closed by the sheriff to-
day under circumstances which make The
failure one of wide general interest
The concern was opened several months
ago Davis the only member of the firm
who is personally known in the local bus
mess community, claimed 10 have Tome
from jacksonville, Fla. When he appeared
on the scene he did so with a flourish Of
trumpets.
He suddenly disappeared several days
ago like the arabs of old, and his where
abouts is a disagreeable mystery 10 the
numerous creditors he left behind.
From the statements of Express Agent
Montgomery and other parties it appears
that Davis in the course Of his brief ca
reer here, has become indebted TO trusting
shippers to the tune of 5000 or 5000.
he sent out fashy circulars, Offering
higher prices for stuff than other Atlanta
commission men. and when lie began TO
receive shipments he undersold them m
the market pocketng the proceeds with
out so much as thank you TO the pro
ducers whom he had beguiled. The first
complaint came into Express Agent Mont
gomery from T. A. Stevens OF Sandy. tIa''
who had been shipping the concern on
consignment without getting any returns
Stevens also does business from Arcadia
Fla. He claims that Davis owes him $500
Since the flight of the operator OF the
concern, numerous claims have begun TO
bob up. The fact that Davis was familiar
with South Georgia and Florida, and con-
Quoted the bulk of his operations there,
indicates that he has lived in Florida.
