past eight years concerning disorders of the human kidneys and the organs which dis eased kidneys so easily break down? You are conducting scientific paper and are un- prejudiced except in favor of truth. It is needless to say no medical journal of "Code" vious reasons.

 That we may emphasize and clearly explain l. the relation the kidneys sustain to the gene ral health, and how much is dependent upon them, we propose, metaphorically speaking, to take one from the human body, place in the wash bowl before us and examine it for the public benefit.
 You will imagine that we have before us body shaped like bean smooth and glis- tening, about four inches in length, two in width and one in thickness. It ordinarily weighs in the adult male about five ounces,
 but is somewhat lighter in the female. A small organ, you say. But understand the body of the average size man contains about ten quarts of blood, of which every drop passes through these filters or sewers, as they
 may be called, many times day, as often as through the heart, making complete revolution in three minutes. From the blood they separate the waste material,
 working away steadily night and day, sleeping waking, tireless as the heart | itself and fully of as much vital impor- tance removing impurities from 65 gallons of blood each hour, or about 49 barrels each day, or 9,125 hogsheads year! What 8 wonder that the kidneys can last any length of time under this prodigious strain, treated and neglected as they are! We slice this delicate organ open length wise with our knife and will roughly de scribe it's interior.
 We find it to be of reddish-brown col or, soft and easily torn; filled with hun dreds of little tubes, short and thread like, atarting from the arteries, ending in lit tie tuft about midway from the outside opening into 8 cavity of considerable size, which is called the pelvis or, roughly speak ing sac, which is for the purpose of hold ing the water to further undergo purihcation before it passes down from here into the ureters, and so on to the outside of the body. These little tubes are the filters which do their work automatically, and right here is where the disease of the kidney first begins
 Doing the vast amount of work which they are obliged to, from the slightest irreg ularity in our habits, from cold, from high living, from stimulants or thousand and one other causes which occur every day, they become somewhat weakened in their nerve force.
 What is the result9 Congestion or stop page of the current of blood in the small blood vessels surrounding them, which be- come blocked; these delicate membranes are irritated; inflammation is set mp, then pus is formed, which collects in the pelvis or sac; the tubes gre at first partially, and soon are totally, unable to dc their work. The pelvis sac goes on distending with this corruption, pressing upon the blood vessels. All this time, remember, the blood, which is enter ing the kidneys to be filtered, is passing through this terrible, disgusting pus, for 1t cannot take any other route!
 Stop and think of it for moment. Do you realize the importance, nay, the vital necessity of having the kidneys in order? Can you expect when they are diseased or obstructed, no matter how little, that you can have pure blood and escape disease! It would be just as reasonable to expect, if a pest house were set across Broadway and countless thousands were compelled to go through it's pestilential doors, an escape from contagion and disease, as for one to expect the blood to escaps pollution when constant ly running through diseased kidney.
 Now, what is the result? Why, that the blood takes up and deposits this poison as it sweeps along into every organ, into every inch of muscle, tissue, flesh and bone from your head to your feet. And whenever, from hereditary influence or otherwise, some part of the body is weaker than another, countless train of evils is established, such as consumption, in weak lungs, dyspepsia, where there IS a delicate stomach, nervous ness, insanity, paralysis or heart disease in
 
 The heart must soon feel the effects Of the poison, as it requires pure blood to keep it in right action. It increases it's stroke in num- Der and force to compensate for the natural stimulus wanting, in it's endeavor to crowd the impure blood through this obstruction, causing pain, palpitation, or an out-of-breath feeling Unnatural as this forced labor is, the heart must soon falter, becoming weaker and weaker until one day it suddenly stops, and death from apparent ''heart disease" is the verdict!
 But the medical profession, learned and dignihed, call these disiases by high-sound- ing names, treat them alone, and patients die, for the arteries are carrying slow death to the affected part, constantly adding fuel brought from these suppurating, pus-laden kidneys which here in our wash bowl are very putrefaction itself, and which should have been cured first.
 But this is not all the kidneys have to do: for you must remember that each adult takes about seven pounds of nourishment every twenty four hours to supply the waste of the body which is constantly going on, waste equal to the quantity taken. This, too, the kidneys have to separate from the blood with all other decomposing matter.
 But you say, My kidneys are all right. I have no pain in the back" Mistaken man! People die of kidney disease of so bad 8 character that the organs rotten, and yet they have never there had a pain nor an ache!
 Whys Because the disease begins, as we have shown in the interior of the kidney, where there are few nerves of feeling to con vey the sensation of pain. Why this is so we may never know.
 When you consider their great work, the delicacy of their structure, the ease with which they are deranged, you wonder at the ill-health of our men and women? Health and long life cannot be expected when so vital an organ is impaired. No wonder some writers say we are degenerating. Don't you see the great, the extreme importance of keeping this machinery in working order? Could the finest engine do even fractional part of this work without attention from the engineer? Don't you see how dangerous this hidden disease is! It is lurking about us without giving any indication of it's presence.
 The most skillful physicians cannot detect it at times, for the kidneys themselves can not be examined by any means which we have at our command. Even an analysis of the water, chemically and microscopically, reveals nothing definite in many cases, even when the kidneys are fairly broken down.
 Then look out for them, as disease, no matter where situated, to 93 per cent, as shown by after death examinations, has it's 1 origin in the breaking down of these secreting | tubes i'll the interior of the kidney. |
 As you value health, as you desire long life free from sickness and suffering, give | these organs some attention. Keep them in l good condition and thus prevent las is easily | done) all diseases. |
