"that they work for yeais witboat a day

Mr. H. H. Warner, who was present
at the time, said,. "Tills is the first sura

tlis water. Been too bnsy."
"Then, I suppose ycu hava been ad

"How dgjrau ecccoct for thia?''

years before the ptblie and the sales are

Why, high scientific and medical an
thoritisp.iow publicly concede that onr
Warner'tf-jfe-cire is tho only scientific
spcciCafor kidney andliver diseases and
for all tho many diseases caused by
them "
"Have yon evidenca of this?"
"Abundance! Only a few weeks ago
Dr. J. L. Stephens, ot Lebanon, Ohio, a
epeciF.list for the euro of narcotic, etc.,
habits told ms that a number of emi
nent scientific medical mou had been
experimenting for years, testing and an
alysing ell known 'ieaiediejfor ths kid
neys and liver, for, as yon may bo aware,
tha excessive use of all narcotics and
stimulants destroys thoo organs, and
until they can bo restored to nealUi the
habits cannot be broken up! Among
tho investigators" were such men as J.
M. Hal!. JI. D., President ol tho Stote
Board of Health of Iowa, and Alexander
Neil, M. D., rrofescor of Surgery in tho
collega of Phy.!ciaas and Surgeons and
president of tho Academy of Medicine at
Columbus, who, afterezhanstivs inquiry,
reported that there was no remedy
known to schools or to scientific inquiry
equal to Wamer'a safe cure 1"
"Are many persons' addicted to the
use of deadly drags?" t
"There arc forty millions of people in
ths world who nso or'iu2n"alone, and
thera are many hundreds of thousands
in this country who aro victims of mor
phine, opium, quinine and cocaine.
Thoy think they liava no Each habit
about tliem so many people, are uncon
scious victims of these habits, Thoy
have pains and symptoms of "what they
call malaria and other diseases, when in
.ealitvilia tl:e demand in-thc cysteine
lor theso tcrnma drugs," a demand that
is caused l.trgely by physicians' prescrip
tions which contain se many danerons
drugs, nnd strong spirits, and one that
must be answered or silenced jn the kid
neys nnd liver bv what Dr. Stephens
says is the only kidney and liver specific.
He aUc bays that moderate opium and
oilier dru e.iters, if thev Gast.mi tho
-kidney and liver vigor with that great
remedy, tan keep up theso habits in
moderation."
"Well does not this discovery give yon
anew revelation of the. power of safe
cure?"
'No, sir; for yearsl have tried to con
vince tho public that nearly afl ths dit
eases of the human tytlem originate in
some disorder of the kidnojs or liver,
and hence I have logically declared that
if our specific were used, oyer ninety
per cent, of thasa ailmonta vrsold disap
pear. The liver and kidneys seem to
absorb these poisons from the blood and
become depraved and d'soasad."
"When these eminent authorities thns
publicly admit that there is uo remedy
like ours to enable the iidnevs and liver
to throw off the frightful effc-sta of al!
deadly drugs and excessive nsa of stim
ulants it ia an admission of its power as
great as any one could desire; for K
thronch itd influence alone the opium,
morphine, quinine, cccaino and liquor
habits can. bo overcome, what higher
testimonial of to specific povrer could be
asked fcr?"
"You really believe then, Sir. Warner,
that tho majority of diseieses come from
kidney and liver complaints?"
"I do ! When you see a person moping
and groveling about, half dead and half
alive, year after year, you may surely
put him down as having some kidney and
liver trouble."
"The other day I was talking with Dr.
Fowler, the eminent occulist of this city,
who said thathalf the patients who came
to him for eye treatment were affected
by advanced kidney disease. Now many
people vjonder why in middle life their
eye eight becomes so poor. A thorough
course of treatment with Warner's safe
' cure i3 what they need moro Uian a pair
of eye glasses, aneildney poison inthe
blood always attacks tho weakest part
of the body; with gome it affects iho
trjet; with others the head; with othe's
"the UovMeSCbt tho lurg), or -JietiBiatfc
disorders follow3 and netgralgia tears
them in pieces, or they loss the powers
of lastt, smell or become impotent in other
functions of the body. What man would
not give his all to have the vigor of youth
at command''" v
"The intelligent physician bnowa that
these complaints are bat sy.nplOTrj; thej
are not Ihe disorder, aad they are symp
toms not of disease of tho head, tho eye
or stomach, or of virility, necessarily,
but of the kidney poison in the blood
and they -may prevail and no pain occur
in the kidneys."
It is not strange that ihe enthusiasm
which Mr. Warner di'pTays in his ap
preciation of hi Qwn remedy, which re
stored him to health when the doctors
a:d he con'dnot live six months, should
become infectious and that the entire
world should jay tribute to its power.
For as Mr. Warner ssys. the sales aro

Origin of Fruit Panning
It is a singular fact that wo are i
debted to Pompeii for the great indus
try of canning fruit. Years ago, wlun,
the excavations were just beginning, a,
psrty cf Cincinnattians found in what'
hud bean the pantrv of a house, many
j ira of prcsorved figs. One was open
ed and they were found lobe freah and
good. Investigations showed that, the
fha had been put into jars in a-hwtecb;
state, anapertute left for the steam to
escape, and then sealed with wax.
Tint hint was taken, and the next
yetr canning fruit was introducud in
to the United States, the process being
indentical with that in voguoin Pom
peii twenty centuries ago. Tho ofcl
ladies in America who can tomatoe.i
aad peaches do not realiza that they
are icdebeted for this art to a people
who were literally ashes but a faw
years after Christ. Indkna Farmer..
After all there does not icem to be
mucL in the claim that ths high tariff
h responsible for tha present condition
of American shipping. The New
York 'Tribune" very pertinently ob
fcerve: "Tho free traders" have bae11
saying for twenty years that tho Amsr
ican commercial marine has deuliued
beca,t under the high tatiff it eoU
three or four times as much monoy xto
build ships here as it does in England.
They will not be grateful to Svcretar
Whitney for admitting that tho lids
for the new cruisers are only 25 pr
cent above the price of similar vesseis
abroad. Their favorite generalization
is reduced to a narrow margin of 2
per cent; and if there had been geii.
ine competition for tho vessels insces I
of a pre-arranged 'pool.' anion, tl.o
hip builders, that margin, would ha e
bee.i brought stilt lower. Mr. Rouih,
who is authority on all matters ca
netted with American shipbuilding,
hits completed the increased co-it of an
American ship at 10 or 12 per cent;
nnd this is mainly the result of paying
higher wages to skilled workmen."
General John McCcok, Clerk of tho
House of Representatives, on the Itii
completed and caused to be printed an
unofficial list of members of the Homo
for the Fiftieth Congress. He classi
fies them as 16S democrats, 152 re
publicans and four independents.
