Inherited Diseases.
Ko fact of nature is more pregnant
vrith awful meaning than tho fact of tho
inheritance of disease.
Modern science, which has illuminated
10 many dark corners of nature,has shed
a new light on tho ominous words of tho
Scriptures, "Tho sins of the fathers,
shall bo visited upon tho children
onto tho third and fourth generation."
Fifty per cent, of cases of consumption,
cancer and scrofula, run in families
through inheritance. Insanity is hered
itary in a marked decree, but, fortu
nately, like many other hereditary
diseases, tends to wear itself out, tho
stock becoming extinct. A distin
guished scientist truly says: 4-No organ
or texture of tho body is exempt from
tho chance of being the subject of
hereditary disease." Probably more
chronic diseases, which permanently
modify tho structure and functions of
the body, arc more or less liable to bo in
herited! The important and far-reaching
practical deductions from such facts
are obvious to reflecting minds, and tho
best means for preventing or curing
these diseases is a subject of intense in
terest to all. Fortunately nature has
Erovideda remedy, which experience
as attested as infallible, and the reme
dy is the world-famous Swift's Specific,
a pure vogct&blo compound nature's
antidote for all blocd poisons. To tho
afflicted it is a blessing of inestimable
value. An interesting treatise on
'Blood and Skin Diseases," will b
