Terrible

s Disease. 3a4
No disorders. excepting the most
deadly forms of lung disease, involve
such a tremendous destruction of or
ganic tissue as those which fasten upon
the kidneys. Such maladies, when they
become chronic-and none are SO liable
to assume that phase-cOnsplete wreck
the system. To prevent this terrible d.
sease, recourse should be had, upon the
first manifestation of trouble, to Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which expert
ence has proved to be highly effective
as means of imparting tone and regu-
larity'to the organs of urination. as well
as to the liver, stomach and bowels.
Another beneficial result of this medi-
cine, naturally consequent upon its
dIuretic action, is the elimination from
the blood Of impurities which beget
rheu latism, neuralgia, govt, dropsy
and other maladies. By increasing the
activity of the kidneys, it augments the
depurative efficiency Of these organs,
which are most important outlets for
the escape of such impurities,
