Inc Nluheys 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 are CON
| nected 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
urinate without the ability to retaiu. This fire.

TREATMENT T.-Helmbold's highly concentra-

of the best remedies for diseases of the bladder
kidneys, gravel, dropsical swellings rheuma-
tisIn, 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. 1t was always highly recon-
intHded by the late Dr. Physick, in these affec-
tions.
This medicine increases the power of diges-
tion and excites the absortents into healthy ac-
tion by which the watery or calcerous deposi-
TONS and all unnatural enlargements, as well
MS pain and inflammation, are reduced, and it is
dons for use and diet accompany.

DEAR SIR-I have been sufferer for upward
OF twenty years, with gravel bidder and kid
ney affections, during which time have used
various medicinal preparations, and been under
the treatment of the most eminent Physicians
experiencing butIttle relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised, consulted with my family physi-
clan in regard to using your Extract Buchu
l did this because had used all kind of atver-
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 ingfe-
dients. 1t 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 myphysician as an excel
lent combination, and, with his advice, after an
examination of the article, and consulting again
with the druggist, Tconcluded to try 1t. com
menced it's use about eight months ago, at which
time was confined 20 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. felt much like writing you
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

to me-
am now able to report that cure is effected
after using the remedy for five 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, nice tonic and inYigorator of
the system, do not mean to be without it when
ever occasion may require Its use in such affec-
