Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, ETC., are al
ways unpleasant, and at times they become
the most distressing and dangerous diseases
that can affect the human system. Most dis
eases of the Kidneys ar q from impurities in

purifying the blood, thereby causing a healthy

Not mindless Of the growing years,
OF care and loss and pain,
My eyes are wet with thankful tears
For blessings which remain.
Ifdim the gold of life has grown.
i will not count il drosS,
Nor turn from treasures still my Own
To sigh for lack and loss.
The years no charm from Nature take;
As sweet her voices call,
As beautiful her mornings break,
AS fair her evenings fall.

Rheumatism is a Disease Of the Blood.

The blood, in this disease, is found to contain
an excess of nbrfH. NEGETINE acts by con-
verttng the blood from its diseased condition to
a healthy circulation. NEGETINE regulates
the bowels which is very important in this
complaint. One bottle of NEGEIINE will
give relief but to effect a permanent cure IL
must be taken regularly, and may take several
bottles. especially in cases of long standing.
VEGETINE is sold by all druggists. Try il,
