 That we may emphasize and clearly explain the relation the kidneys sustain to the general health, and how much IS dependent upon them, we propose, met sphorically speaking, to take one from the human body, place in the wash bowl before us. and examine 1t for the public benefit.
 You will imagine that We have before us a body shaped like a bean, smooth and glistening, about four inches in length, two in width and one in thick ness. It ordinarily weighs m the adult male about five ounces, but IS somewhat lighter in the female. small organ? you say. But understand, the body of the average size man contains about ten quarts of blood, Ct which srsry drop passes through these ftsrs or ss'esrs, as they may be called, many tunes day, as often as the heart. making a complete revolution in three riiHuiss- From Inc blood they separate the waste mateIial, working away steadily night and day, sleeping or waking, tireiess as the heart itself, and fully of as much importance removing impurities from sixty-nVe 9aE Ions Of BlOOd each hour, or about forty nine barrels each day, or 9,l25 hogs heads a year. What wonder that the kidneys can last any length oi time under this prodigiOus strain, treated ana neglected as they are
 We slice this delicate organ open lengthwise with our knife and will rough ly describe it's interior:
 We find 1t to be of a reddlsh-orown

 occur every day, they become somewhat | in fhafr uarwa forsa
 What is the result? Congestion or
 stoppage of the current of blood in the small blood vessels surrounding them,
 which become blocked; these delicate membranes are irri,ated; inflammation
 is set up. then pus is formed, which col lects in the pelyis or sac; the tubes are
 at first partially, and soon are totally, | unable 10 do their work. The pelvic sac goes on distsnding with this corrup-
 ton, pressing upon the blood vessels. | All this time, remember, the blood
 which is entering the kidneys 10 be til- | tered. k passing through this tsrribLS, 0tS- | yus'ing pils, for 1t cannot take any other | route
 Stop and think of it for a moment. | To you realize the importance, nay the | vital necessity, of having the kidneys in | lrdcr2 Can you expect when they are | Iiseased or Obstrucied. no matter how | title. that you can have pure blood and scope dissdssf It would be just as req

 he blood to escape pollution when con-
 -,antly running through a diseased kid
 Gey.
 Now, what is the result? Why, that
 he blood takes up and deposits this | uOiSOn as it sweeps along into every | organ, into every inch of muscle, tissue, | flesh and bone, from your head 70 your
 eel. And whenever, from hereditary
 influence or otherwise, some part Oi the | lodv is weaker than another, a countless ! train of diseases is established, such as | consumption in weak lungs, dyspepsia, | where there is a delicate stomach | nervousness, insanity, paralysis or heart | disease in those who have weak nerves. The heart must soon tsSi thS egects of ths

 But the medical profession, learned and dignifed, call these diseases by high
 sounding names, treat them alone, and ! patients die, for hS arteries arc edTyiHg | slOr death Co hs affected parts, constantly
 adding fuel brought from these suppurat- | ing, 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 | uourishment every twenty-fOuT hours to supply the waste of the body which is constantly going on, a 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 50 bad a character that the organs are rotten, and yet they have Esrsr hsTe had d pdil. or da dchs, Why2 Because the disease begins,
 as We have shown, in the interior of the kidneys, where there drs fsir nsrrss {,

 When you consider their great work,
 the delicacy of their structure, the ease
 with which they are deranged, can you
 wonder at the ill-health of our men and
 women? Health snd long life cannot be expected when SO vital an organ is impaired. No wonder some writers
 gay ne are desenersting. Don't you see the great, the extreme importance of keeping this machinery in working order2 Could the finest engine do even a 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 constantly,
 without giving any indication of it's
 presence.
