A BEGGAR had hung a board with the words ‘I am blind” around his dog’s neck. One morning a policeman found the man reading a newspaper, and said to him: ‘Then you are not blind, I see?” “No, sir; my eyesight is first-rate. It’s my dog that is blind."—Haarlemsche Cowrant. ‘Was going up on the car the other night,” he said, ‘and met a friend on the platform. Had a big package under his arm. Offered him a cigar. He took it. Didn't know till he got off that he had four boxes under his arm. What do you think of that?” “ Rather odd.” “Should smile to ripple! Made a mistake, how- ever, and gave him a cigar that was loaded. Had it loaded to blow my brother's head off. “And it exploded 2” “Betcher life!

SHOE FOOD FOR REFLECTION. The New York World of February gth says: “*The question as to how much of what they pretend to know doctors really know, is a very interesting one. ‘*They possess exceptionally great facilities for humbugging, and the presumption is that they are not proof in most cases, at all times at least, against temptation to make use of them. Their profession comes as near being an esoteric one as any that is acknowledged to be respectable. But the revelation as to their views in the Robinson arsenical poisoning cases in Boston is startling. “There were five deaths from the drug, and the doctors in their certificates attributed them respectively to pneumonia, typhoid fever, menin- gitis, bowel disease and Bright's disease of the kidneys. The truth would have never been known but for suspicions with which the doctors had nothing to do. There is food here for re- flection—and for doctors.” The above criticism is fully warranted by the startling ignorance shown by the attending phy- sicians in the Somerville Cases. Too often it happens that fatal results follow an improper course of treatment—the physician treats the patient for consumption, general debil- ity, or for nervous disorders, whilst the real disease, which is slowly destroying the kidneys and filling the system with a poison quite as deadly as arsenic, is altogether overlooked or does not attract attention until too late. Physicians too often treat the symptoms of disease instead of the disease itself. It is well established that four-fifths of the ordinary ills of humanity are the results of disease in the kidneys which will yield to the curative properties of Warner's Safe Cure if timely used, and to it alone. What is apparently a disease in the other organs is more oftentimes a mere symp- tom of kidney disease, which should be quickly eradicated by Warner's Safe Cure before it secures too firm a hold on those organs.
