Serious Kidney Disease Treated

quite unlikely that l would be able to

thing under the circumstances.

was becoming thoroughly discouraged

One day the patient said to me.
Doctor, why don't you give me the
medicine you gave my neighbor? We
all thought he would die, but your
medicine cured him. This was WHY I
came to you. Why not give me the
same medicine you gave him?"

But" I said, "this is not a medi-
cine for kidney disease"
well, since you seem to be like the
rest Of the doctors, you cannot help
me, why not try the medicine that
helped my neighbour"
After some hesitation I concluded to
give him a bottle of it. In ten days
he returned. He at once began to be-
rate me in no complimentary words,
saying:
You knew very well this medicine
would help me. You held it back
merely to get more fees for treating
me. From the first the medicine has
helped me and 1 have made rapid inn

called at my Office for another bottle
OF medicine, which was his last call.
A month or so afterwards a n~elghbor
OF his called and got a bottle of the
same medicine, saying that my patient
was practically a well man, attending
to his duties about his large farm.
I had given him the Neutralizing
Mixture which was a remedy that I
had used before only for bowel dis
eases. The same remedy that has since
been sold under the name of Peruna.
l could not quite understand how it
was that Peruna should operate so
benefcially in such seemingly different
diseases. I had not yet grasped the
correct philosophy Of disease. / did
mot then clearly comprehend that
oaterrh may affect the kidneys as well
as the bowels. Nothing of that sort
was taught in the books in those days.
It took me years before l clearly COM
pretended that catarrh was a disease
liable to attack any organ Of the body.
CatarTh is a disease Of the mucous
membranes. The mucous membranes
line every organ, duct and cavity in
the body. Thus 1t il catarrh may set
tie anywhere where there is a mucous
membrane.
Peruna is my remedy for all these
cases. I insist upon it, however, that
Peruna is not a cure-all. l use it for
just one disease, catarrh. But as
catarrh is liable to affect so many diff
ferent places, disturb so many differ
ent functions, derange so many differ
ent organs, it does seem to many peo-
pie as if / regarded Peruna as a cure
IAN.
The above narrative is simply n Of
the many cases in my early practice
that brought me to comprehend the
wonderful efficacy Of Peruna in such a
variety of diseases. The kidneys may
be affected by other diseases than
catarrh, but the average case of kid
ney disease is catarrh Of the kidneys.
All cases Of Bright's disease begin
with catarrh of the Kidneys. This
being true, and it also being true that
Peruna is a catarrh remedy, it follows
that a great many cases Of kidney
disease would be benefited by Peruna.

WHY NOT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT?

Since the publication of an article
in this paper relative to the advice
of a contributor to a religious paper
of this state, urging the readers to
vote for members of their own de-
nomination in preference to candi-
dates of other affiliations, certain pa
pers, among them the Tampa Times,
the Tallahassee Democrat and the
Wauchula Advocate, have intimated
that they think religion and politics
a good mixture, and each asks the
question, why not UNCONVENTIONAL
ISM"
We will answer briefly:
Denominationalism expressed along
the lines indicated is the first and
most important step towards the un-
ion of church and state, a condition
which is abhorrent to our national in
situations.
Such denominationalism would re-
suit in the affairs of any state, coun-
ty or city being conducted exclusively
by the adherents of one religious
sect, whichever CHANGED to be the
strongest in that state, county or city.
Finally, it would result in the control
of the national government by the
sect or denomination that numbered
most adherents in the country.
1t would destroy all hope of Chris
tan unity array friend against
friend and neighbor against neighbor
in the most violent and vindictive hos
tility-for history furnishes no rec
ord of more bitter and violent con-
tests than those waged in the name
of religion.
Such denominationalism would fos-
ter bigotry and intolerance, the pa
rents of odious oppression, the inev-
liable seed of fearful strife. Prac-
ticed on the smallest scale, it is SOW
ing the whirlwind, the harvest OF
which no man can foretell; for once
UNCONVENTIONAL lines are drawn n
politics it is impossible to set the
limit. At the very least, granting
that the resultant evils could be con
fined to our state, it would put an eff
fectual check on development and
immigration: for few men would care
to make a home or an investment in
section of the country where they
might be politically ostracised be
cause of their religious belief.
In the face of these undeniable
facts, how can newspapers, edited by
sane men, ask the question: why
not denominationalism? "-Lakelant

HARMON WAS RIGHT AND Is
RIGHT

Judson Harmon is not and cannot
be a good democrat, because he refus-
ed to support free silver in 1896.
That is the substance of the indict-
ment that Mr.. Bryan has framed
against him:
I affirm that Gov. Harmon has not
changed in heart since that time /
affirm that his sympathies are with
Wall Street today, as they were then,
and that his nomination would put
the cnotrol of the party in the hands
of Wall Street.
If Gov. Harmon denies this, let him
show where he has ever publicly adj
mitted that he and President Cleve-
land were wrong in assisting the re-
publican party in 1896.
If he was right in 1896, then the
NEARLY half million democrats of Ohio
who voted for me that year were
wrong.
But Mr.. Harmon was right in 1896
half a million democrats or half a
million democrats to the contrary not
withstanding.
Mr.. Harmon is right again when ne
tells the World that "the people al
large have suffered more from the
exactions of the tariff than from any
other single cause" Nearly every
great abuse in national government
can be traced to that single source.
We commend the Harmon inter
view to Mr.. Bryan and other so-callet
democratic progressives who have
been beaten on every hysterical issue
that they have presented to the
American people for the last sixteer
Years.
At best and at worst the initiative
and referendum and the recall are 10
cal issues. They have no place in ;
national campaign except as evidenc'
of the political instability of thei
champions.

WoMAN's MISSIONARY SOCIETY


The Woman's Missionary Society
held its regular monthly meeting in
the lecture room of the Methodist
church Friday afternoon. Mrs Ze
wadski, president, was in the chair.
Miss Downs sang a very beautiful
solo. 1t certainly is treat to hear
her sing.
Mesdames McConathy, Harris and
Clyatt were appointed a committee to
get some competent organist to test
the pipe organ, and if found satisfac-
tory, to pay bill for repairs.
Mrs Hall reported that the sewing
circle was just getting along finely.
A motion was made and carried
that the society send $40 to food suf-
ferers, and a committee was appoint
ed to collect this SO, also to collect
clothing and other things to send with
the box to be sent by the Kings
Daughters.
Mrs. Tally's class will take charge
of the church for the next month.
Mrs. Newman, the Jacksonville dis
trict secretary, was with us, and
made a splendid talk, which was very
much enjoyed and appreciated by the
society. Among other things she
stressed was tithing. She told how
the Jacksonville society managed its
meetings, business, social and liter
airy, and also explained the object in
us a great deal of valuable informa-
ton, for which the society thanks her
very much.
Mrs. Clyatt then gave a splendid
report of the convention in Tampa,
as follows: The first meeting was
held Wednesday afternoon at $3.50
with praise service and executive
committee meeting; the devotional
being conducted by Mrs. Hanson in
the absence of Mrs. Rush. On We'd
nesday evening a reception was ten
dered at the beautiful home of Mrs.
w. F. Hines, in Suburb Beautiful
This reception was informal, and
very pleasant. Thursday morning
devotional was conducted by Rev Du-
till. Business session called to order
by the president, Mrs. Hanson. The
presidents address was very impress
i've and greatly enjoyed. She said
that the work had grown some, with
littl or no friction, some new societies
had been organized, while a great
many have united and report better
meetings. That in spite OF changes
and consequent unrest, Gods clear
call had come to two young women
to give to him their services, Miss

THEN WHY NOT UNDERWOOD?

THE national campaign before lie
will be fought out on the great issue
of tariff reform. The strength OF
Champ Clark's candidacy is his iden-
tilcation with that great issue"
But why not Underwood rather
than Clark? 1t is Oscar Underwood
who is peculiarly identified with the
issue of tariff reform. 1t is Oscar
Underwood who has made the demo
cratic party's record in congress for
tariff reform. If that issue belongs
to anybody it belongs not to the
speaker but to the chairman of the
