THE KIDNEYS.-The Kidneys arc two in
humber, situated at the upper part of the oin,
surrounded by fat, and consisting Of three
parts, viz: the Anterior, the Interior, and the
Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of
tissues or veins, which serve as a deposit for
the urine and convey il TO the exterior. The
exterior is conductor also. terminating in a
single tube, and called the Urcter. The ure-
tiers are connected with the bladder.
The bladder is composed Of various cover
ings or tissues, divided into parts, viz. The
Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, aud the Mu-
cous. The upper expels, the lower retains
Many have desire to urinate without the
ability; others urinate without the ability to
retain. This frequently occurs In children.
To cure these affections, we must bring into
action the muscles, which are engaged in their
various functions. II they are neglected,
Gravel or Dropsy may ensue.
The reader must also be made aware, that
however slight may be the attack, 1t Is sure to
affect the bodily health and mental powers, as
our flesh and blood are supplied from these
sources.
Gout, or Rheumatism.--Pain occurring In
the loins is indicative Of the above diseases.
They occur In persons disposed to acid stom-
ach and chalky corrections.
The Grayel,--The gravel ensucs from neglect
or improper treatment of the kidneys. These
organs being weak, the water is not expelled
from the bladder, but allowed to remain it
becomes ieycrish, and sediment forms. Ii is
from this deposit that the stone is formed, aud
gravel ensues.
Dropsy Is a collection Of water in some parts
Of the body, and bears different names, accord
ing to the parts affected, viz when generally
diiiused over the body, it is called Anasarca
when Of the abdomen, Ascites when Of the
chest, Hydrothorax.
Treatment -Helmbold's highly concentrated
compound Extract Bnchu is decidedly one of
the best remedies for diseases Of the bladder,
kidneys, gravel, dropsical swellings, rheuma-
tism, and equity affections. Under this head
we have arranged bysuria, or difficulty and
pain in passing water, scanty secretion, or
small and frequent discharges OF water; Stran.
gnry, or stopping OF water Hematuria, or
bloody urine; Gout and rheumatism of the
kidneys, without any change in quantity, but
increase Of color, or dark water. Il was al
ways highly. recommended by the late DIR.
Physick, in these affections.
This medicine increases the power OF diges-
ton, and excites the absorbents into healthy
exercise, by which the watery, or calcareous,
dispositions, and all unnatural engagements,
as well as pain and inflammation, are reduced,
and 1t Is taken by men, women, and children.
Directions for use and diet accompany.

ii. i. HELnBoLp, Druggist:
DsAR Sal have been sufferer, for up
ward Of twenty years, with gravel, bladder,
i
have used various medicinal preparations, and
been under tho treatment oil tho most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised, consulted with my family physi-
clan in regard 10 using your Extract Buchu.
did this because had used all kinds Of adj
vertsed remedies, and had found them worth
less, and some quite injurious In fact des-
paired Of ever getting well, and determined 10
use no remedies hereafter, unless knew of the
ingredients. Il was this that prompted me- to
use your remedy. As you advertised that II
was composed Of buchu, cubebs, and juniper
berries, II occurred to me and my physician as
an excellept combination, and, with his advice,
alter an examination of the article, and con-
suiting again with the druggist, | concluded TO
try it. commenced its use about eight months
ago, Mt which time was confined 10 my room.
From the first bottle / was astonished and
grained at the beneficial effect, and after using
II three weeks, was able to walk out felt
much like writing you a full statement Of my
case at that time, but thought my Improvement
might only DO temporary, and therefore con-
cluded TO defer and sec II II would effect a per-
feet cure, knowing then 1t would be Of greater
value TO you, and more satisfactory 10 me.
am now able TO report that a cure Is eject
ed after using the remedy for Eve months.
have not used any now for three months,
and feel as well in all respects as ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid Of any unpleasant
taste and.odor, a nice tonic and invigorator Of
the system, do not mean 10 be without Il
whenever occasion may require It's use In such
affections. II. MCCORMICK.
