CAN IT BE AyERTEDl Tho Danger Which Mennces an Unsus-
 pcctinV Public.

The Brompton Hospital for consumptives, in London, reports that over fifty people out of constipated or inactive kidneys
 Consumption is one of our national d.s eases, and the above report goes to prove, what has often been said in our columns during the last eight years, that kidney than half of the cases of consumption, but of ninety out of every hundred other com mon diseases. They who have taken this position, made their claims after elaborate investigation, and their proof that they have discovered specific for the terrible and stealthy kidney diseases, which have become % prevalent among us, is wise and convinc ing.
 We have recently received from them a fresh supply of their wonderful advertising. They have challenged the medical profession and science to investigate. They have investi- gated and those who are frank have admitted the truth of their statements. They claim that ninety per cent of diseases come origin ally from inactive kidneys; that these inactive kidneys allow the blood to become filled with uric acid poison; that this uric acid poison in the blood carries disease through every ! organ.
 There is enough uric acid developed in the system within twenty-four hours to kill half dozen men.
 This being scientific fact, it requires only ordinary wisdom to see the effect inactive kidneys must hava upon the system
 If this poisol is not removed, it ruins every organ. If the bowels stomach or liver be- comes inactive, we know it at once, but other organs help them out. If the kidneys be- come constipated and dormant the warning comes later on, and often when it is too late, because the effects are remote from the kid neys and those organs are not suspected to be out of order.
 Organs that arc weak and diseased are un- able to resist the attacks of this po.son, and the disease often takes the form of and is treated as local affection, when in reality the real cause of the trouble was inactive kidneys Too many medical men of the present day hold what was fact twenty years ago, that kidney disease is incurable, according to the medicines authorized by their code. Hence, they ignore the original cause of disease itself, and give their attention to useless treating of local effects. They dose the patient with quinine, nor phine, or with salts and other physics, hop | ing that thus nature may cure the disease, while the kidneys continue to waste away
 with inflammation, alteration and decay, and the victim eventually perishes. The same quantity of blood that passes through the heart passes through the kid l neys. If the kidneys are diseased the blood soaks up this disease and takes it all through the system. Hence it IS that the claim is l made that Warmers safe cure, the only known specific for kidney disease, cures 90 per cent of human ailments, because it, and lG alone, Is dOle to lllalnCaln the natural aC- | tivity of the kidneys and to neutralize and remove the uric acid, or kidney poison, as fast as it is formed.
 If this acid is not removed, there is inac- tivity of the kidneys and there will be pre- | duced in the system paralysis, apoplexy, dys- pepsia consumption, heart disease, headaches. | rheumatism, pneumonia, impotency. and all the nameess diseases of delicate women. If the poisonous matter is separated from the
 blood, as fast as it is formed, these diseases, l in ma jority of cases, would not exist. It only requires particle of smallpox | virus to produce that vile disease, and the | poisonous matter from the kidneys, passing | all through the system and becoming lodged
 at different weak points, is equally destruc-
 tive although more disguised.
 If it were possible for us to see into the
 kidneys, and how quickly the bloo1 passing
 through them goes to the heart and lungs
 and other parts of the system, carrying th,s
 deadly virus with it, all would believe with | out hesitation what has so often been stated | in advertisements in these columns, that the
 kidneys are the most important organs in the | body.
 They may regard this article as an adver- | tisement and refuse to believe it, but that is
 q matter over which we have no control 1 Careful investigation and science itself art
 proving beyond doubt that this organ is | in fact, more important than any other 1T
 the system as health regulator, and as sucE
 should be closely watched, for the least sign l of disordered action.
