The Reason Why,

The tonic effect of Kidney-Wort is
produced by its cleansing and purifying
action on the blood. Where there is Il
gravelly deposit in the urine, or milky,
ropy urine from diSordrrcd kidneys, il
cures without fail. Constipation and
piles readily yield to its cathartic and
healing power. Put up in dry vegetable
form or liquid, (very conccntrated) .
Either act prompt and sure.
