know it. He U pcrd-clly honest , bill he is
behind the limes. Ilo elocs Ihe best lie can ,
no doubt , but his best is not good cnougli.
Hu is not a spvcialbt. He is a gcncial prnc-

Tlio Test Is Rc-ardcil ( on All Skies
So Far as a Forerunner
of Great Success.
It Is onlv a few days ago Ihat the nn.
nouncomcnt of what Is bound to prove ono
of the mout remarkable tests ever made of a
discovery In medicine , appeared In this
liaper. So far a largo percentage of these
who received n free aamplo of Hobbs' Sparn-
gus Kidney I'llls have made n report which
ns a whole la satisfactory.
When It Is considered that so great n num
ber of our citizens suffering from kidney
troubles of ono kind or another , have ,
within this short tlmo found a nmllrlno
which has greally benefited them , and that
nil appear to be nn the road to rapid re
covery , Iho Incalculable valim of Dr. Hobbs'
llscovory lo suffering humanity cannot bo
overestimated.
If Bcorcn of pcoplo In Ihe city of Omaha
alone hnve received so much benefit from
.his remedy , what an untold blessing It.will
irovo to bo , nnd what n vast amount of
suffering 11 will' eave when Iho pcoplo of
ho whole world comelo know of It !

lave -In this shorl llmo firmly established
homsolves and gained the confidence of
ho people of this community , and have more
vnrm friends In Omaha and vicinity than

There are , undoubtedly , hundreds of thou
sands of people who nro suffering to a
greater or loss dcirrte from kidney troublea
who do not kno > \ It.
Some nro In a drowsy , dull condition
feel languid ; generally speaking , they say
j they feel pretty well , when accosted by some
j friends , yet they have nol Hint bright , sharp ,
i vigorous lone to their system ns of yore.
I Unbeknown to them , poison from their klJ-
i ncys ( which nro n Mile out of order ) Is
gradually collecting In their system , nnd
lotaily unconscious of me fact , they are _
Hlowly but surely being poisoned to death.
It may bo a process of years , but the re
sult of the kidneys working Imperfectly
means nlmott certain destruellon al lasl. No
man can feel vigorous and bright , nnd no wo
man ha.s thai healthful , rosy lint to her
checks that poets have | > nld homage to slnco
the creation of the world , whore the kidneys
are not performing llielr functions properly
and regularly , day and night.

but which In reality Is ono of the most
valuable caul artlvo kidney medicines r s-
paragus has , by ( he nlrlll of medlcnl sci
ence , been called upon t.i perform Its duly
as nature Intended It should.
Asparagus has been known for years lo
Iho medical fraternity to possess a certain
amount nf virtue for kidney ailments. Dr.

nnd , nfter lenig and patient experimenting ,
U enabled to coiliblne the medicinal proper
ties of the asparagus plant with other valuable -
able diuretic and kidney healing remedies
