hASnest standing.
When the people of America become so
thoroughly aroused, and on subject of such
serious Importance as the preservation of
their lives and health, it is but natural that
the ones who have been largely instrumental
In the origin of its movement should speak
frankly and directly to the people most inter-
ested. 1t Is for this reason that we thus
come before tn public and make the following
revelations
Every careful observer who has sought to
Keep pace with the march of events has noted
the alarming increase of certsin peculiar
physical troubles within the past few years.
1nese troubles have come at unexpected
way. They have manifested themselves
In lnnumerable forms. But they have
always mad the same cause. They have not
alnlcted the minor parts of the body, but have
gone ulrect 10 the stronghOlds OF the system
ana tnelr work has usually been as prompt as
1t is fatal The treacherous and deceptive
nature mas often prevented careful analysis
OF what causes them, and, as result, intense
sunering and final disaster have usually en-
sued. The real cause, however, has been
arrangement Of the kidneys, and all OF these
troubles are. in fact, the first symptoms OF
the terrible Bright's disease, which has cast
It's dark shadow over SO many homes in the
LAND, and Is increasing wonderfully and con-
physicians in every land and by eminent sci
entlsts the world over, that this disease is
the result OF blood poisoning. This poison
ing is brought about by wasted and I'M
healtny kidneys that permit the poison to
remain In the blood, instead of throwing 1t
from the system. tut 1t is equally evident
to all who have studied into the effects
and have become conversant with the facts,
that disordered state of the kidneys and
liver produces most of the common COM
nIainfS xrbin offi ;offh oh ,,y,
and they can be traced to this source just as
certainly as can Bright's disease. To purifya
stream we must go to its source, and to cure
disease we must remove the cause. 1t being
true, therefore, that nine-tenths of all human
ailments are caused by diseased kidneys or
liver, the only certain way to cure these trou-
| bles Is by treating the organs which cause
them. How intimately the kidneys are asso-
clated with the entire system may be under
stood from the fact that over lOOJ ounces of
blood lass through them every hour, being
more than 200 gallons, or nearly one ton in
the course of twenty-four hours. This vast
mass of living fluid Is sent to every part of the
body, and II the kidneys are diseased the inn
| purities that are in the blood are not removed,
and hence pass through the veins, carrying
disease in some one of its many terrible forms.
| The horrors which accompany most of the
diseases caused by dsor0ered kidneys and
liver cannot be described in print, while
| the dangers surrounding them are even
greater than the agony And vet a person
| may be troubled for months without knowing
the cause of the diseases that have attacked
him. Some Of the symptoms of the first
stages, any one Of which indicates disordered
kidneys or liver, are these: Pains in the back
and around the loins, severe headaches dir
Zness inflamed eyes, a coated tongue and o
dry mouth, loss of appetite, chilly sensations,
indigestion, (the stomach never is in order
when the kidneys or liver are deraDged),
dryness of the skin, nervousness, night sweats,
muscular debility, dependency, a tired feel
! ing especially at night, putting or bloating
under the eyes, etc. If any of the following
| things are noticed about the fluids passed
from the system, it shows that the kidneys
and liver are out of order: A red deposit, q
scum upon the surface, an unusual thickness
| or thinness, very dark or a very light color,
a burning sensation in passing, an unusual
odor, retention, or a frequent desire to void
and inability to do so.
The above are few of the hundreds of
symptoms which indicate the beginning OF
aggravated cases of kidney or liver difficult
ties, and they require instant attention II
these symptoms are not checE ed at once, they
are almost certain to result in some one of
the many terrible diseases of the kidneys.
| But unpleasant as all the symptoms and even
these diseases may be, they are as nothing
compared TO the last stages of the COM
| plants. The kidneys waste away by degrees,
accompanied by intense pains; the heart be-
| comes uncomfortable; the lungs are OPP
pressed; the eyeballs grow CLASSY, and the
entire system is reduced and debilitated. For
weeks before death comes the sufferer looks
| forward to it as blessed relief, and anything
that can furnish even temporary help is glad
ly hailed. Then it is that bloating begins;
| the face becomes puffy and pallid; the breath
can only be caught in gasps, speech is impos-
sible and muscular action suspended. The
patient finally sinks into a state of uncon-
seriousness to everything except the pains
which are racking him, and death comes by
certain but slow degrees. There can be but
one conclusion which all readers of care and
judgment will draw from these facts, which
is the necessity of treating the disease in
| tune, and by that means which has been
proven the best and most efficient
1t has been our privilege to treat more
cases and effect more cures of this terrible
complaint than has ever been known before
in the history of the world. The wonderful
sale which our remedies have attained is due
wholly to the fact that they have cured the
! ones who have used them. The power and
value of any remedy must rest wholly on a
basis of worth, and here is just where our
Safe Kidney and Liver Cure has found it's
wonderful power and success But in this
connection comes one important fact: 1t has
| always been true that articles of merit are
subject to limitations. No one seeks to cOun-
terfeit the bills of q worthless bank. The
productions of a cracked inventor or witless
| writer are never copied. 1t is just so with a
healing remedy. II 1t possess no merit it will
not be subject to limitations. IT, however, it

up on every side While it is tribute to the
value of this medicine that it has limitations,
still, in justice to those who are suffering, we
feel that all should be warned against them.
There is but one known remedy that has
ever been able to cure serious kidney troubles
or control these great organs when once de-
ranged, and that remedy is Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure. There are numerous
nostrums on the market claiming to be just
as efficient and some which even claim to be
the same The test of merit, however, is in
what has been accomplished, and we there
fore say unhesitatingly that for all diseases
OF the kidneys, liver and urinary organs,
Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Cure stands
alone, not only in point of excellence, but in
the wonderful results it has achieved In order
to successfully avoid the purchase of spurious
and injurious medicines, observe these facts ::
