SCIENTIFIC TRUTH Regarding the Functions of an Im portant Organ. OF WHICH THE rtJBLIC KN0W3 BUT LITTLE, WORTHY CAREFUL COXSID EUATIOX. To Vie Editor of the Scientific American: Will you permit us to make knoicn to the public the facts we have learned dar ing Vie past 8 years, concerning disorders of the human Kidneys and the organs which diseased Kidneys so easily break down? You are conducting a Scientific '. paper, and are unprejudiced except in favor of truth. It is needless to say, no medical Journal of "Code" standing would admit these facts, for very obvious reasons. II. II. Warxeb & Co.. Pr02ru:tors of Warner's Safe Cure." Tbat we may empuasize and clearly explain the relation the kidneys sustain to the general health, and bow much Is dependent uon them, wo propose, metaphorically speaking, to take one from the human body, place in the wash-bowl before us, and examine it for the public benefit. You will imagine that we have before us a body sha;-d like a bean, smooth and glistening, about four inches in length, two in width, and one in thick ness. It ordinarily weighs In the adult male, about live ounces, but Is some what lighter in the female. A small organ? you say. But understand, the body of the average tizs man contains about ten quarts of lil'od, of tchicli every drop passts through these filters or sewers, as ilit y may be called, many tinies a day, S3 ofleu as through the heart, mak ing a complete revolution in three min utes. From Uie blood tiiey serrate the waste material, working away steadily night and day, sleeping or waking, tire less &s the heart itself, and fully of as much vital importance; removing im purities from sixty-five gallo'is if Hood each hour, or about forty-nine barrels each day, or 9,12a hogshead a yearl "What a wonder that the kidneys can last any length of time under this pro digious strain, treated and neglected as they are? 'e slice this delicate organ opcn lengthwise with our knife, and will rorniWy describe its interior. We find it to be of a reddish-brown color, foft and easily torn; filled with hundreds of little tubes, short and thread-like, starting from the arteries, ending in a little tuft about midway from the outside owning into a cavity of considerable sizj, which is called the pelvis or, roughly speaking, a sac, which is for the purpose of hoi iing the water to further undergo purification before It passes down from here into the ure ters, and so on to the outside of the body. These little tubes are the filters which do their work automatically. and ri'jht here is urlure the disease of Vie kidney first begins. Doing the vast amount of work which they are obliged to, from the slightest irregularity in our habits, from cold, from high living, from stim ulants or a thousand and one other causes which occur every day, they be come somewhat weakened in their nerve force. What is the result? Congestion or stoppage of the current of blood In the small biood vessels sui rounding them, which become blocked; these delicate membranes are irritated; infliinmi tlon is set up, then pus Is formtd, which collects In the pelvis or sac; the tubes are at firs', partially, and soon are to tally, unable to do their work. The pelvic sac goes on distending with this corruption, pressing upon the blood vessels. All this time, remember, the blood, which is entering the kidneys to be filtered, is passing through this tcrri lle, disgusting vus, for It cannot take any other routel ttop and think of it for a moment. Do you realize the Importance, nay the vital necessity, of having the kidneys in order? Can you expect when they are diseased or obstructed, no matter J bow little, that you can have pure blool and escape disease It would be just as reasonable to expect, if a pest-house were set across Broadway and count, less thousands were compelled to go through its pestilential doors, an escape from contagion and disease, as for one to expect the blood to escape pollution when constantly running through a diseased kidney. Xow, what Is the result? Why, that the blood takes up and deposits this poison as it sweeps along into every organ, into every inch of muscle, tis sue, llesh and bone, from your head to your feet. And whenever, from hered itary iniluense or otherwise, some part of the body is weaker than another, a countless train of diseases is established, such as consumption in weak lungs, dyspejisia, where there is a delicate stomach; nervousness, insanity, paraly. sis or heart disease in those who have weak nerves. Thehtart must svn feel the effects of Vie jsjison, as it rt'i'iires pure biood to keep it i.i ri'jht action. It increases its stroke in number and force to compen sate for the natural stimulus wanting. In its endeavor to crowd the impure blood through this obstruction, causing pain, palpitation, or an out-of-breath feeling. Unnatural as this forced labor is, the heart must soon falter, becomln? weaker and wt aker until one day It suddenly st'ps, and death from apparent "heart disease" is the verdict. liut the medical profession, learned and dignified, call these diseases by hhjh sounding names, treat them alone, and patients die, for the arteries are carry ingihxc dtathtt the atfteted iart, con sUtnV? a.dJ'ug fuel brought from these auppurating, pus-laden kidneys which here in our wash-bowl are very putre faction itself, anl which should have been cured first. But this is not all the kidneys have to do; for you must remember that each adult takes about seven pounds of nourishment every twenty-four hours to supply the waste of the body which is constantly going ou, a waste equal to the quantity taken. This, too, the kidneys have to separate from the blood with all other decomposing matter.. But you say, "My kidneys are all right. I have no p3in in the back." Mistaken rnan I Fecmle die of kidney disease of so bad a character that the organs are rotten, and yet they have never there had a pain nor an aclie! Why? Because the disease begins, as we "have shown, in the interior of the kidney, where there are fete nerves of feeling to convey the sensation of pain. Why this is so we may never know. When you consider their great work, the delicacy of their structure, the ease with which they are deranged can you wonder at the ill-health of our men and women? Health and long life cannot be expected when so vital an organ Is impaired. Xo wonder some writers say we are degenerating. Don't you see the great, the extreme importance of keeping this machinery in working order? Coulrt the finest engine do even a fractional part of this work, without attention from the engineer? Don't you see how dangerous this hidden disease b? It is lurking about us con stantly, w.tltout giving any indication of its pi eeuce. The r.io.--t skillful physicians cannot del?ct it ::t V.iiK-s.f'ir Vie Ihlnctit Viem selves cnn,.-'t Ik tzamhud by any means which v.e have at our command. Kven an ai.alysis of the water, chemically and Microscopically, reveals nothing definite in many cases, even when the kidneys are fairly broken down. Then lock out for them, as disease, bo matter where situated, to 93 per cent, as shown by after -death exami nations, has its origin in the breaking down of these secreting tubes in the interior of the kidi;ey. As jro'i value health, as you desire loaf life free from sickness and suffer ing, give these organs some attention. Keep tehm in good condition and thus prevent (as is easily done) all disease. Warner's Safe Cure, as it becomes year after year better known for its wonderful cures and its power over the kidneys, has done and is doin more to Increase the average duration of life than all the physicians and medicines known. Warner's Safe Care is a true specific, mild but certain. harmless but energetic and agreeable to the taste. Take it when sick as a cure, and never let a month go by if you need it, without taking a few bottles as a pre ventive, that the kidneys may be kept in proper order, the blood pure, that health and long life may be your bless ing. H. U. WAENKtt di LO. HOUSEHOLD, The appearance of articles manu factured by amateurs and intended for maatlepiece and other ornaments mayor- ten be greatly improved by coating them with the following preparation. Dates of mica are first rendered perfectly clean and white, either bailing in mu riatic acid or by igniting them; they are then washed, dried and ground to a fine powder, which is thoroughly sifted and mixed with very thin collodion. In this condition it is applied, like paint or varnish, with a soft pencil, two or three more coats being given to the ar tide until the desirea thickness is ob tained, which is determined, of course. by the taste and judgment of the work' man. The objects thus coated have a silvery appearance, and possess the valuable advantage over them lu wuicn the ordinary metallic bronze is em. ployed, of not being at all affected by sulphurous vapors; neither are they in jured by dust or dirt, and are reaany cleaned by washing in water. Oollod ion adheres firmly to glass, porcelain, wood, metal and pasteboard; and as mica Is capable of taking any desired color, at the same time retaining com pletely! he lustrous appearance distin guishing it, it furnishes by this process an exquisite covering for a large var. iety of articles. Hard Soap. Break up the contents or one box of concentrated sapomfie; (concentrated lye) into fragments by striking upon the side of the box. Dis solve it then In two and a half pints of hot water in an iron kettle. Melt id another pot or pin five pounds of clean grease. Take off the fire, and into this stir slowly the dissolved lye, and keep stirring until the whole becomes well mixed. ow cover up and set in a warm place over night. Next day cut up into small pieces, add six pints of water and melt with a gentle heat until the soap is all dissolved; shen pour into a mould or pan to cool. When cold. cut into bars, which will be lit to use in ten days. I have used this soap for more thaa twelve years and like it. The fine polish given stoves by tfeose skilled in the art is produced as follows: Have a tl::u mixture of black varnish and turititine; apply this with a paint or varnish brush to a portion of the stove; then with a cloth dust this over with pulverized British lustre or stove polls!:; then rub with a dry bru&h. The stove must be iK.rfectly cold. The stove dealeis buy the pulverized stove polish, which is carburet of iron, in 23-pound packages. The process conducted in this manner Is quite brief, but gives beautiful results. Ink stains cau be removed from a carpet by freely iunug milk on the place and leaving it to soak in for a time, then rub it so as to remove all ink, and scoop up remaiulng milk with a spoon; repeat the process with more milk, if necessary; then wash it off completely with clean cold water, and wipe it dry with cloths. If this is done when the ink is wet the milk takes all stain out or woolen materials instantly, but when it has dried a little time is re quired. A N entree specially designed to ac company roast pork is made in this way; Feel as many potatoes as will cover the bottom of a deep pie-dish. Sprinkle half a teaspoon! ul of dried sage over them. Cut a small onion in thin slices, and spread them over this. Add salt and pepper, and little lumps of butter, according to your taste. Cover tho bottom of the dish with water, and bake in a moderate oven. Baltimore Apple Bread. Roll out two layers of light bun dough about half an inch thick; spread one thickly with stewed apples and lay the other on it. Let the whole rise half an hour and then Kike till done. When baked spread a thick layer of stewed apples over the top, and bits of butter, and sprinkfc with sugar and place in the oven long enough for the sugar to form a coating. Serve hot. Femes of sulphur are frequently rec omraendeJ as a means of ridding house plants of insects, but this must not be understood to imply ignition, as in the case of tobacco, for thU would destroy plant life as well. The sulphur should 19 placed under hot sun or in pities and fiues and warmed to a degree less than ignition, when the vapor given off will be found objectionable to insects. The application of hot camomile flower bags will frequently afford relief in neuralgic troubles. The bags are made of linen, and are lightly filled with camomile blossoms, all the stems being removed. When required for use they are heated on a tin-plate in the oven, care being taken not to scorch them. The following beverage is soothing if taken just before going to bed by the person troubled with a cough. It is an old French recipe, and is called "lait de poule." Mix the yolk of one egg thoroughly with a teaspoonf ul of sugar and add a few drops of orange-flower water. Four a gill of boiling water by degrees upon the mixture, stirring con stantly, and drink very warm. S.vow Drops. One cup of butter; two cups ol sugar; whites ot live eggs; one small cup of milk; three full cups of prepared flour; flavor with vanilla and nutmeg. Bake iu small round tins. Tho e in the shape of fluted shells are very pretty. Cheamkd Eggs. Have ready a pint cf cream sauce made fame as for pota toes. Boil six eggs twenty or thirty minutes. Have six slices of nicely. toasted bread buttered on a platter. Cover each slice of toast with the sauce, slice the eggs in rather thick rings and arrange on the toast. Fried chicken, serve! with thin slices of white meal mush, also fried a crisp brown, makes a supper dish that is good for a hearty meal. Slices of lemon, freshly cut, bound lightly upon the temples are said to be a sure cure for nervous headache. A Xatural Bird-Trap. The orna mental Fisouia grand Is of Australia has seeds like an elongated barley corn, which are covered with a very sticky gum. This adheres to the legs and feather of the winged creatures coming In contact with it, and makes the plant a natural bird-catcher, no less tnan a hundred birds having been known to be captured by one tree in Victoria FARM K9TE& How.to Cure Eoo EATntO. Some times the habit is formtd by the care lessness of the kitchen maid, or House keeper, in throwing the egg-shells into the pail and giving them with the other waste to the hens. This should never be done, if you want the hens to respect their own ecus. Understanding the jause of this unthnfty habit, it Is not venr difficult to provide a remedy, From a recent experience, we have round that the habit Is very mucn aroken bv an abundant supply of crush- id shells. It had grown so bad in a lock of twenty light brabmas, owing to leglect of this ration, that tney oevour- i every egg, without the closest waicn nir. at the cackle of every laying hen. livimr the shells every morning, the iraving ceased, and we found the eggs emaining in the nests undisturneo. as m assistant to this remedy, was manu actured an egg-trap from a common test-box. This is so simple that any ne accustomed to the use of tools can oake It in an hour or two. A slight in Jination of the board upon which the iest-egg is fastened will cause the new aid egg to roll away from under the ten, beyond her reach, as soon as it is Iropped The rear b.urd has the same nclinatlon toward the centre, and pro ects over the other board far enough o protect the egg when it has rolled .way. The space between the boards s just wide enough to give free passage o the eggs. The egg-box may be lined nth a handful of sawdust or chaff to rotect the shells from cracking. If he back board be furnished with dnges, it cau be used as a lid, to allow if the removal of the eggs. It Is acorn Iete egg-trap, and with the oyster hells, as iu our case abated the nul auce ot egg-eating. Many think, that vhen a hen has contracted the habit of gg-eating, the shortest wayls the best, aid instead of eating she is put in a ondition to be eaten. But a good ayer is too valuable to be given up rithout an effort to reform her bad iabit, often acquired through the neg Ueuce of the owner. The egg-trap vorks admirably, and secures the end lesired by placing it out of the power itthe hen to do mischief. Why 1?otatoes aue Exhaustive, A large crop of potatoes takes from lie soil nearly one hundred pounds of Mtash per acre. Few soils will stand .his drain, and therefore the yield de- Iines. The potato crop is universally wld from the farm, and it leaves less refuse as manure than any other, l'ota- M tops should be brought to the barn rard to be worked into the manure neap. Though not bulky they contain xmsiderable fertilizing material. Left n the held they will be blown into 'ence corners in winter, and thus be ost. Timothy yob. Lawns. Although timothy Is too rank and coarse to even je a favorite for permanent lawn grass. it Is just the thing to occupy the sur face until other grasses get possession. Sown in the fall with the finer lawn rrasses the latter will not make much of a show the subsequent season, while the timothy will furnish a fine sod. By frequent use of the lawn mower the timothy will be gradually run out as he grasses Increase. It is easy to get pure timothy seed, while many of the mixed lawn-grass seeds ate badly infest ed with seeds of weeds. As windfalls are of frequent occur rence, and often seem a bugbear In the eyes of some, we give the following from the I etertnary Journal, which Is good authority on the treatment of the different diseases of horses. It says: Vt indgalls maybe removed by a strong decoction of white oak bark and alum. They may be reduced by blistering, from subsequent contraction of the kin. As they appear on colts and do no injury unless attended with lnflamam tlon. It might probably be policy to let them alone." A writer says: "Sheep often go a long time without drinking, especially if in a pretty good pasture, and the lews are so heavy tbat they can fill up with wet grass in the mornirg; but when they do want to drink water it is as necessary to their health and comfort as to that of other animals. Therefore keep a supply of pure water in the sheep pastures as much as in any other, and if the sheep do not drink from It give them a little salt once a week. They should have salt as often as once a week under any circumstances." Professor Cook, of Michigan, re commends the destroying of all old birds' nests In apple orchards, as they are good hiding-places for apple worms and other insects. lie also advises putting wire screens on cellar windows to prevent the escape of codling moths, which hatch out in warm davs in fall and spring from apples stored in the cellar. A bottle of carbolic acid should be kept in every farmhouse not merely as a disinfectant, but as a wa-th for wounds and sores. For any purpose they should be diluted with water. Its power to destroy fungus growths makes carbolic acids invaluable in pruning orchards of pear, plum or peach, where blicht or other disease Is suspected. The prun ing snears snouid be frequently dipped in carbolic acid water. The Ltve Stock Monthly, speaking of ensilage, says that while theorists are still endeavoring to show the insignifi cant value of ensilage for feeding to milch cows, the practical farmers con tinue to build silos, fill them with ensi lage and double the number of cattle on their farms. Scientists cannot prove impossible that which exists as a tangi ble, practical fact. If geese and ducks are picked at this season they must be kept in a warm, dry place, and fed highly, In order to induce a new growth of fe it hers as rapidly as possible before coll weather. Too much can hardly be said in praise of oniens ior fowK They are a preventive and a remedy for many of the diseases to which domestic fowls are liable. For gapes onions are the best things that can be fed. FARMERS who have knot a. ufrW an. count with their stock say that a pound of poultry can be made for less than a pound of pork, yet the laboring man wuo una to ouy coin reels tnat he can not afford to buy poultry very often, as it costs more than other meats, Ik trimming a hedge something else should be considered as well as the mat ter of cutting off the extra growtn. Some kind of shape should be given it There is nothing so attractive or orna mental as a shapely, well-kept hedge, and it adds value to the farm. A. Ktw Sewage System. The precipi tation method of treating sewage is to be adODtfid in Tjtnilnn The sewage is left in tanks, and the separation of the solid portion is hast ened by the addition of lime and proto- Biupuaie or iron, i ne liquid becomes as clear as fresh water and may be drained into the Thames; while the solid matter is to be pressed into blocks for transportation to the sea.

The chair, the news paper the confederate below the stage, and a bright, slim girl are the thing? which are used. The chair Is not. as it looks, an ordinary article. It is of the heavy, old-Iashloned mahogany kind, without rongs, thickly upholstered ot the seat, with an open back, "is so built that bv touching a concealed spring the seat is made to drop down from the rear on a hinge, leaving the girl free to sink down the trap, which is manipulated by the confederate be low the stage. There being no rungs on the chair the girl has an easy Job. When the Illusionist has sealed her he throws over her head the silk veu. At the moment she feels herself complete ly covered she works another spring, which causes a thin wire frame-work to rise up from the back of the chair and spread itself about her form, thus pre serving undisturbed the outlines of the cloth and deceiving the audience into the belief that s is still seated. The mystery of the open newspaper spread under the chair to kill any suggestion of a trap is even simpler. The paper has been deftly cut so as to contain a trap opening in itself. It la so handled by the operator as not to reveal the slit, and when he gathers it up after the trick he is careful to fold it partly a-t least. Ills own work consists, first, in spreading the newspaper so that th trap cut in it shall cover exactly the trap in the stage, and second In setting thechair directly over both traps. He ottLt to be clever in talking to ditert L& spectators' attention from both newspaper and chair, and the more ne speaks of the absence of a trap the bet ter he can puzzle those who are watch ing him. Of course, he cannot submit eiOier the chair or newspaper to inspec tion. The trap used in the stage is the ordinary demon's drop of good sis& After the girl baa passed through, the confederate below the stage puts his hand up and springs to its place the hinged seat in the chair. Then he raps, and the illusionist above knows that all is ready for him to pull away the veil. Added mystery is gained by making the girl run out into the audi torium as soon as she can. A neat sleight-of-hand man can also cause the veil Itself to disappear up bis sleeve after be has lifted it. Furniture manufacturers have bad their attention directed by enthusiasts to the pulp buestion. It Is argued that the pulp can be used as a substitute for lumber In the manufacture ot furniture and other articles now made exclusively ot wood. By mixing the pulp with clays, steatite, asbestos, plumbago and mica, substances of every possible color and compactness may be produced. It u estimated that only about 20 per cent, of the timber felled reaches eco nomic uses, while if the sawmill were combined with the pulp and piessing processes all the material in the trunk might be available. It has been discovered that the faded ink on old doi'lPients papers, parch ments, etc., may oe so restored as to render the writing perfectly legible. The process consists in moistening the paper with water, and then passing over the lines a brush which has been wet in a solution of sulphide of ammo nia. The writing will immediately appear quite black In color; and this color, in the case of parchment, will be preserved. On paper, however, the color gradually fades again, but may be restored at pleasure by the applica tion of the sulphide. The explaoatioa of the action of this substance is tat the iron which enters into the composi tion of the ink is transformed by the reaction into the black sulphide. India rubber is menaced with a riva'. The rubber dealers of Eastern i lcara- gua think they have discovered a tree whose gum will give as much satisfac tion as rubber, and will, in fact, take Its place. They say that the milk cf the tuuo furnishes the most excellent gutta-pt rcUa, equal to the best found in the Eastern tropics, while the num ber of trees Is virtually inexhaustible. and the gum can be produced with profit at 12 cents a pound. TJie Lancet publishes an article giv ing an account of the successful treat ment of carbunculous diseases by the injection of the officinal solution of am mouia. Dr. Arendlne claims that it destroys the baccillaria? In all malignant pustules, and is a specific in this class of diseases. As physicians have found the carbuncle always dangerous, and almost beyond the reach ot remedies, the suggestion may prove of great value to the profession and to sufferers. , . Professor W. Matticu WiUuntu indi cates as probable sources of nitrogen In soils, and serving as food for plants, the bodies of insects, excreta of living Insects, Invisible spores, microbes and particles of organic fluff, which are al ways floating in the air and liable to ad here to the moistened surfaces of the soil and of the leaves of the growing plants. Tlte Interesting discovery has been made in Switzerland of a bright green moss growing on calcareous rocks 200 feet below the surface of Lake Leman. No other moss has been known so far under water, and how chlorophyL the green coloring matter, could have been so richly developed in a place so remote from the light Is a problem. An observant machinery manufactu rer thinks there is one material advan tage in locating the foundry in the second story of a machinery establish ment, where the castings wanted are light and room is Important. His Idea Is that an thing can be put under a a foundry, while scarcely anything can be put over it, owing to the fumes and beat involved in casting. 27e Maluva tree .of Central India (bassia latifolia) bears flowers which are now being exported to Europe for their sugar, of which they contain m xe than half their weight.

It was at Heideluurg that a quiet citizen leaving the cars said to a swaggering student. "Sir, you are crowding met Keep back a little bit, sir!" The student turned fiercely, and said, in a loud tone, "Do you not like it? Well, sir, I am at your service when ever you please!" "Oh, thank you!" said the traveler.
