doubt that IL is Tie basis of the most
obstinate chronic disorders. Not many
years ago u celebrated ply slciau of Lon

Bright's disease of the kidneys. While
most of the characteristics Of this
dreadful malady have been known, yet
one of its most peculiar features is OF

Involves other organs OF the body long be

no casts, and yet Bright's disease may
exist and disorder the entire system.

kidney disease is probably the common

adults. more 30 even than consumption,
out IL is a very deceptive disease. If d
man breaks u limb he will expect pain
in the injured member; if a bullet crash

pain in the wounded part, but in dis
eases of the kidneys he will suffer most
in the other organs of the body. These
sufferings are ouly b effects, b cause
is behind them, and If that cannot be
removed there can be no cure of the de-
fects. Some of the commonest ailments
of humanity are the sure symptoms OF
Bright's disease. When the kidneys

DIR. George johnson, agreatauthority
Over 20 years ago pointed out that what

The doctors admit they can do nothing
for a person in the tolls of Bright's Dis
ease; but happily, the oftimes wiser
school of independent investigators has
not so failed. A few years ago a well
known medical practitioner found the
vegetable elements which diseased kid
neys and liver needed as a food and re-
storer, and knowing how widely these
diseases prevailed, he sold the formula
to Mr.. II. II. Warner, Of Rochester,
