I'luoky Woman lor Whom Trolloy
llold-Ups Hnvo No Terror.
Norrlstovvn, Pa., Jan. 7. Instead of
waiting for the opening up of new
fields of employment for women, Mrs.

In view, she came to Norrlstovvn yes
terday from her home, In Manayunk,
to file an application with Genetal
Manager Douglass, of tjie Schuylkill

n conductor on a trolley car. She sayB
,he can call "Pares, please," as well
ns a man, and In a more persuasive
tone, and that she can perform all the
other duties ot a conductor.
Asked by a filend why she did not
apply for n similar position In Mana
yunk, she said she prefer! ed to begin
her pioposed new vocation wheie she
would not come In contact with so
many acquaintances, Mrs. Halle ac
quired a smattering knowledge of the
Outlet! of ii conductor from her hus
band, who filled such a position on one
of the lines In Philadelphia. She says
she knows she would like the position,
and believes that outdoor life would
be beneflelnl to her health.
At lut nccounts the plucky woman
had failed to secure tin Inteivlew with
Managei Douglass, and filends are tiy
Ing to dlssunde her finm bet purpo.se.

MEN THAT ARE DOOMED.
AND YET WHO HO NOT KRAMZE
THEIR OANGEH.
Why 1'coploHrllt Along Until It Oltcn
Is 'i'oo I.Mo, Explained by n Hclon
oTSclonco. ,
"I met a gentleman on the street to
day whom I havo not seen t6v some
time, but the moment my eyes reBted
upon him, I could see that ho was
doomed."
It was a member of Hie faculty of a
New York Medical College who made
this statement.
"I saw," ho continued, "that peculiar
color ot countenance, that lack of ex
pression In the eyew und pudlness
under the lids which Indicate the pres
ence of the most horrible of all known
diseases. The coiners of the man's
mouth wele somewhat drawn down
and the lines of the face were distinct
ly marked. I felt like warning him,
but I was not on sufficiently Intimate
terms to warrant my doing It, so I
meiely stated that he was looking as
though he weie not in the best of con
dition. 'Ob, I mil all light!' he exclaimed.
'In fact, I think I am enjoying very
good health. It is true,' he continued,
'that I do not always sleep well, my
appetite Is rather fickle and I feel un
accountably tired at times, but I have
no pain whntever, and I think I am
getting along all right.'
I left him with a warning not to be
too certain about his condition, but t
tell you that unless that man takes
piompt action of the light kind, he Is
a candidate for the grave, and that,
too, within a limited period."
"And yet he does not know it!"
"The thing which makes Brlght's
disease of the kldnejs, which that man
undoubtedly has, the most dangerous
of ull diseases Is that It has no symp
toms of Its own. I mean that pain Is
seldom felt In the kidneys themselves,
and yet I deliberately state as a physic
Ian that neatly one-half of the deaths
In America are caused by Blight's dis
ease of the kldnevs. This may sound
like a rash statement, but I am pre
pared to fully verify It. Hundreds ot
burial certificates have been made out
by family physicians for 'heart dis
ease,' 'apoplexy,' 'paraljsls,' 'spinal
complaint,' 'rheumatism,' 'pneumonia'
und other common complaints, when
in reality It was Blight's disease of
the kidneys."
"Few physicians and fewer people
realize the extent of this disease or Us
dangerous and lnIdlous natuie. It
steals Into the system like a thief,
manifests Itself bv the commonest
symptoms und fastens Itself upon the
constitution befoie the victim is aware
of Its piesence. It Is nearly as heredl-
taij as consumption, quite as common
and fully as fatal. Entlte families, In
heriting It fiom their ancestors, have
died, and yet none of the number knew
or teallzed the mysterious power which
was lemovlng them."
"Not only this, but until recent yeais,
no remedy was known which could
prevent or cure this most fearful of
diseases, and even today, with nil the
advancement of science, there Is but
one known dlscovety by which It can
be prevented, controlled when It is con
tacted, or finally cured. That lem
edy Is Warner's Safe Cure, and It has,
to my certain knowledge, saved more
people from untimely deaths, and Is
keeping more people In perfect health
today than any other dlBCoyeiy ever
known In the entire history of the
woild. It was concerning this temedy
that the late Dr. Dlo Lewis said:
"While my own life has been devoted
to the pteventlon of diseases, and while
years ago I gave up the use of medi
cines, I gratefully recognize the prec
ious value of Warnei's Safe Cure, and
It I found myself the victim of kidney
tiouble, I should Instantly use it."
When physicians of the highest
standing so unhesitatingly endorse a
modem illscoveiy, which will certain
ly cure the most terrible of diseases,
does It not stand to reason that those
of us who realize that we are slowly
drifting Into a state of decline; that
our kidneys, liver or urinary organs are
not what they should be, should avail
ourselves of the benefits of so great
a scientific discovery, which are placed
so easily vOthln our reach?
