William Roberts, M. D. F, R. C. P., of 
the University of London, Eng., says: “Pas¬ 
sive congestion of the kidneys may be present, 
in which the urine contaius not a trace of al¬ 
bumen, while the symptoms of intense venous 
congestion, dropsy, orthopoeua and pulsating 
jugulars are present. The urine becomes 
scanty, high-colored and dense.” Warner’s 
Safe Cure, has cured thousands of these sym¬ 
ptoms, often called diseases, by putting the 
kidneys in a healthy condition.

HENDERSON’S NEW 
Bush Ljma Bean. 
Can and Should be Grown in every 
Garden on the Continent. 
Of all the Novelties in Garden Products 
ever sent out, there is nothing so entirely distinct 
and valuable as this New Vegetable. The 
old Lima Bean can only be grown on poles, 
while the NEW B US It RIM A. grows and is 
cultivated exactly like the common bush or snap 
bean (growing only 18 inches high), and from 
the time of its bearing in July, produces in 
abundance delicious Lima Beans throughout the 
entire season until frost. It has, besides, an 
additional value, in that it is two weeks 
earlier than any other Lima Bean, being fit 
for the table in from forty to fifty days from 
time of planting. 
Brice (by mail) 25 cents per packet, 
5 packets for $1.00, 12 packets for 
$2.00 (12 packets sufficient for an 
ordinary - sized family (or the season). 
Directions for grow', >n each, packet. 
Remittances can be sent either by Rost 
Office Order, Postal Note or Stamps.

conditions see Manual offered below. 
Every purchaser of Henderson’s Bush 
Bima Bean will be sent, without charge, our 
Manual of Everything for the Garden, a 
book of 140 pages, size, 9 x 11, containing 3 col¬ 
ored plates (the price of which is 25 cents), on
