SUDDENLY STEICIiEN BLIND,
. A natastrophe such asjfew.men have the stoicism to bear and few survivo, baa (aaya tho Oineinmli Jnjtiiiw) ooiue like a thunderclap upon Charles Cullman, list Saturday night, while auditing the books of tho. Bellovuo Building Association, at their rooms Avenue, ho.i.turhea suddenly to one of the bystanders and exclaimed, "Why. do. you turn out the gas,? I'm not through yoti", ".Turn out the,gas, what's tho matter with you ? Tho gas is burning." '• My God, then I'm blind," cried Cullman, and sinking back in his chair, from which he had arisen in his' excitement ho buried' his face in his hands, and moaned and.wept liko achild. Dr Schwartmeyor, his regular physician, was hastily sent for, and onlv arrived to confirm tho worst fears, Cullman was indeed blind. Without a premonitory sign, without a warning, the blow had como, and as he wt thoro bemoaning his sad fate, his eyes grew dim, Friends took him by tho hand and trembled with emotion as they tried to speak words of hope and comfort. The stricken mau only moaned, "My wife-1 _My r littlo onus 1" Drs Ayras and Battier, tho noted specialists wore summoned, A diagnosis followed, and it was discovered that Cullman had for some tune been a sufferer from Bright's disease of the kidneys. The exudations of the albumen frum those organs caused arsonio bloodpoisoning, which gradually pervaded tho whole system of the sufferer. Step by stop the disease spread, and contraction of the kidneys followed, resulting in inilaination of the retina or optic nerve hopelessly destroyed the sight for ever. Tho'case, although uot an isolated one is cxtromely tare,'death generally ensuing bolore such crisis arrivos, Another recent case of ueramio poisonini', similar to the one just narrated, only fortunately taken in time, is that of Mr William Contts, engineer, of Onehunga, N.Z,, who writes us as follows:—' Eight or nine years ago kidney disease: : insidiously invaded my system, Deterioration of tho blood produced a morbid condition of tho kidneys, and oightoen months ago I found myself in a most critical state of health. I suffered fearful pains across the abdomen, micturating caused untold agony. I could not dosist , from a perpetual desire to urinate, yet thourinowas frequently scanty, and like boiling water, and was filled with sediment. An. analysis further showed it to contain albuiuen.-'and my doctors acquainted me with the fact that I was stricken with the dread Bright's disease, I then commonced the uso of Warner's safe cure and Warner's safo pills. At thd t'm I was nearly blind. The medicine has proved a veritable boon, and has saved my life. After the use of a few bottles all the pains vanished, I have used ten bottles with the result that my water is devoid of all albumen or any sediment whatsoever, and my eyesight is wholly restored, 3119
