To the Druggists Of Minnesota:
Dear Sirs: The discovery in this

You, as a brother druggist, we'll know
that up to this time chronic Bright's

essarily fatal. 1t is so no longer. And
I not only know this by being on the
ground, but I was also one of the pa
tents. I had both Bright's Disease
and Diabetes and looked upon death
as inevitable. I was so prejudiced
T wouldn't buy the new treatment. /
couldn't believe it. So they gave 1t
to me to prove it. I not only recov-
cred but have since given it to some
where near fifty patients and know of
only three or four failures.
I am a pioneer druggist Of this city;
have been doing business on my own
premises for forty-eight years, and
now declare to you on the honor
of a brother pharmacists the abso-
4 lutte durability Of these dread diseases
in about nine-tenths of all cases.
understand the business men who are

WALK UNDER THE HUDSON.
The Journey Painful for Those wht
 Made It.

The Journey Painful for Those Who
 Made It.
 Now York Tribune 18th.
 Six officials and some forty newspaper men. clad for the nonce in yellow caps and oilskins, safely crossed from the State of New Jersey to the State of New York. beneath the North River. yesterday in the new Morton Street tunnel.
 The newspaper men at least had an experience which, they conceded, out classed anything in all their checkered careers. The original number was about forty-three, but one member of the craft baked at the entrance, one the physi- elan refused and another was carried out from the tunnel attacked by variety of the dreaded 'bends." The officials were W. G. McAdoo, president of the New York and New Jersey Railroad, builder of the tunnel; Charles M. Jacobs, the chief engineer; J. W. Herbert of the Niagara, St. Catherineis and Toronto Railway; Alfred Noble. chief engineer of the Pennsylvania Railroads East River tunnel; J. F. Bensel, chief engineer of the Dock Department; K. B. Congers, president of the Knickerbocker Improve ment Company and pr. A. T. Loomis, the tunnel physician. With the excep- ton of w. G. McAdoo's 15-year-old son, who apeared to relish greatly the novelty, the party was composed mostly of New York reporters and photographers. They wondered at the elaborate precautions prescribed on the notice boards for the use of laborers in the tunnel, at the reason for donning oiiskins and arctics, at the preliminary medical examinations and at the other stories of the bends.
 All this, and more, including labor un- der conditions of compressed air, they were shortly to discover-no few of them to their cost. When they entered the tunnel they still felt the tonic of the
