THE KIDNEYS! 5!

The Kidneys are two In number, situated at
the upper part OF the loin, surrounded by fat
and consisting of three parts, viz the Anterior,
the Interior. and the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of It's
sues, or veins, which serve as a deposit for the
urine ann convey it to the exterior. The exte-
rior is a conductor also, terminating in a single
tube, and called Ureter. The ureters con-
neeted with the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various coverings
or tissues, divided into parts, VIZ: the Upper,
the Lower, the Nervous, and the Mucous. The
upper expels, the lower retains. Many have a
desire to urinate without the ability; others
urfnate without the ability to retaiu. This fire.
Quently occurs in children.
To cure these affections, we must bring into
action the muscles which are engaged in their
various functions. If they are neglected, Gravel
and Dropsy may ensue.
The reeder must also be made aware, that
however slight may be the attack, it is sure to
affect the bodily health and mental powers, as
| our flesh and blood are supported from these
sources.
GoUT, OR RHEUMATIsM.-Pain occurring in the
loins is indicative of the above diseases. They
occur in persons disposed to acid stomach and
chalky secretions.
THE GRAvEL-The gravel ensuee from ne
glect or improper treatment of the kidneys.-
These organs being weak, the water is not ex-
PEELED from the bladder, but all owed to remain;
it becomes feverish, and sediment forms 1t is
from this deposit that the stone is formed, and
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
diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca; !;
when of the abdomen, Ascites; when of the
chest, Hydrothorax.
TREATMENT-Helmb highly concentra-
ted compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one
of the best remedies for diseases of the bladder,
kidneys, gravel. dropsical swellings, rheuma-
tism, and gouty affections. Under this head we
have arranged Dysuria, or difficulty and pain in
passing water, Scanty Secretion, or small and
frequent discharges of water Strangury, or
stopping of water; Hematuria, or bloody urine;
Gout and rheumatism of the Kidneys without
any change in quantity, but increase in color,
or dark water. Tt was always highly recon-
mended by the late DIR. Physick. in these affec-
tions.
This medicine increases the power of diges-
ton and excites the absortcnts into healthy ac-
ton by which the watery or calcerous deposi-
tons, and all unnatural enlargements, as well
as pain and inflammation, are reduced, and it is
taken by men, women, and children Direc-
ons for nse and diet company.
PHILADELPHIA, PA, Feb. Is, 1867.
Fl. L. HELMBOLD, Druggist:
DEAR SIR have been sufferer for upward
of twenty years, with gravel, bladder and kid
ney affections. during which time I have used
various medicinal preparations, and been under
the treatment of the most eminent Physicians,
experiencing butslittle relief
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised consulted with my family phys-
clan in regard to using your Extract Buchu.
did this because had used all kind of adver-
tised remedies, and had found them worthless
and some quite injurious: in fact, despaired
of ever getting well, and determined to use no
remedies thereafter unless knew of the ingre-
dients. 1t was this that prompted me to use
your remedy. AS you advertised that it was
composed of buchu, cubebs and juniper berries
it occurred to me and my physician as an excel
lent combination, and, with his advice. after an
examination of the article, and consulting again
with the druggist, Iconcluded to try it. com
menced its use about eight months ago, at which
time was confined to my room. From the first
bottle was astonished and gratified at the ben
eficial effect and after using it three weeks was
able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing you
a statement of my case at that time, but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary, and
therefore concluded to defer and see if it would
effect perfect cure, knowing then it would be
of greater value to you and more satisfactory
to me.
am now able to report that a cure is effected
after using the remedy for five months.
L 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, nice tonic and invigorator of
the system, do not mean to be without it when
ever occasion may require its use in such affec-
tions. NJ MCCORMICK
