While nearly one hundred persons were

Of the crystal-llkc structure. They

swift current OF the river and hundreds
shouted warming TO those on the bridge,
Some Of these vcnturesOme persons had
only gone Il short distance from the
river bank. while others were out in the
center Of the bridge and were crossing
the river. Those near the end soon
found safety, but further out toward
the center were 4 number OF small
boys. Before they were fairly started
for The shore. the great bridge was
looscncd from It's fasteninGs. Then 1t
became Il race for life. but the young

the shore
II was then seen that all except three
persons had reached places of safety.
One was n man not far from the New
York side. The others were man and
woman who were fleeing across the
Ice toward the Canadian side. The
man near the New York shore kept his
courage well. His eyes were directed
toward the steel arch under which he
would pass IL the ice continued to
move down the river. Onward It went,
and Just rs he reached the bridge he
caught the arch as il rises not far out
from the abutment. The man and wo-

at is surprising what mistakes even
some Of the best people In the world
make"
The speaker was one OF the greatest
doctors the world has ever known. and
he resides in New York.
Take for example one OF the most
common things in the world. namely. a
cold. People speak OF taking cold
there Is really no such thing.
"a cold Is symptom-an effect. not n
cause. Did you ever know an absolute
ly well and healthy person who took
cold? ] never have. even under the
greatest exposure. Yes. indeed, Q cold
Is symptom. not cause"
The gentlemen and ladies' 10 whom
tho doctor was speaking exchanged
looks OF establishment. hut they did not
dispute the words OF the learned doc
tor.
You may be surprised" he contln-
ucd, when I tell you that nine-tenths
Of all colds occur because those great
organs OF the body. the kidneys, are out
OF order"
more men and women are troubled
with imperfect Kidneys than with any
other known form of disease. The un-
fortunate thing about II Is that they do
not know that this Is their trouble.
why ? Because all difficulties. de-
rangements and diseases OF the kidneys
which come TO both men and women
are usually without any pain; In fact.
without any systems whatever, and
this proves Just what l said at first,
namely. that n cold Is symptom
There was n look OF amazemeIt upon
the faces OF his hearers.
Indeed" continued the doctor. most
deliberately and earnestly. 81 assert
that the grip. which has been so disas-
trOus. which has brought so much
trouble into the world. would never
have had Its run II the kidneys Of those
who had suffered from It had been In
perfect condition. These great organs,
II uncloggcd. would have thrown the
disease from the system so that the
grip would have been unknown"
Now there Is but one great discovery
for the prevention and cure of all kid
ncy dlillculties-that grand remedy.
Warmers Safe Cure. No class OF pco-
pie know or realize this better than the
medical profession. and no class Is
more ready TO acknowledge It,"
Take my word. anyone who Is caro-
ful upon the first approach of cold or
grip and goes right 10 the seat OF all
colds-the kidneys-will not suffer long
from n cold: will rot be oppressed by
the grip and need have no fear of pneu-
monia. because the kidneys, unclogEcd.
will open up the system and throw
the germs OF disease out Of the body.
You can depend upon this

The San Francisco Bulletin" in a
very grave and labored editorial-and,
by the way, the Bulletin is inclining
toward the anti-expansion sentimental
fad-declares that a people who can
make as good a fight as the Filipinos
do, rise in the estimation of the world,
and as a rule demonstrate that they are
in greater or less degree capable of set
ting up and maintaining free govern
ment. Is that so? How about the
Apaches? How long and we'll they re-
sisted our best troops. How about the
Zulus and the resistance they made,
not for months, but for years, to Eng
lish arms? And so on. Truth is that
in many another case, as in this, the
bitterest, most persistent fights have
been put up by tribes of men lowest in
the scale of humanity. Just so IN the
Philippines, the fellows at the front and
doing the most desperate fighting often
are the savages, unbreeched, naked fel-
lows, desperate in their very ignorance
and their fatalism. No, the ability TO
withstand trained troops and Kill
good many of them, is in no sense evil
dence of capacity for self f-government.
