The Danger Which Mcnpces an UBsus-
pectinR Public.
The Brompton Hospital for consumptives,
IN London, reports that over fifty people out
OF every hundred cOnsumptivo3 are victims
OF consupated or inactive kidneys.
Consumption Is one Of our national s.
cases and the above report goes 20 prove,
what has often been said in our columns
during the last eight years, that kidney
troubles are not only the cause Of more
than half OF the casss 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 "A specific for the terrible and
stealthy kidney diseases. which have become
50 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 10 investigate. They have investi-
gated. and those whOare 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 tho blood 20 become filed with
uric acid poison; that this uric acid poison
i'm the blood carries disease through every
organ.
There is enough uric acid developed i'm the
system within twcntyfour hours to kill half
dozen men.
This being scientific fact, IL requires only
ordinary wisdom TO see the effect inactive
lidneys,must have upon the system.
IL this poison is not removed, IL ruins every
organ. III the bowels stomach or liver be-
comes inactive, we know 10 AT once, but other
organs help them out III the kidneys be
come constipated and dormant, the warning
comes later ON, and often when it is too late,
because tho effects are remote from the kid
neys and those organs are not suspected 10
BE- out OF order.
Organs that arc weak and diseased are un.
able 10 resist the attacks OF this poison, AMI
the disease often takes the form OF and Is
treated as a local affection when in reality
the real Gauss Of the trouble was inactive
kidneys.
Too many medical men OF the present day
ho.d what was n fact twenty years ago, that
kidney disease is incurable according TO the
medicines authorized 10y their code. Hence,
they ignore the original cause of disease
itself, and give their attention 10 useless
treating of local effects.
They dose the patient with quinine, NOR.
phinc or with salts and other physics, hop
ing that thus nature may cure the disease.
while the kidneys continue 10 waste away
with inflammation, liberation and decay
and the victim eventually perishes.
The same quantity of blood that passes
through the henrt passes through the kid
neys. III the kidneys are diseased the blool
soaks up this Il soase and takes it all through
the system Hence il is that the claim is
made that Warmers safe cure, the only
known specific for kidney disease. cures 80
Per cent. OF human ailments, because il. and
it alone, is able 10 maintain the natural ac.
tivity Of the kidneys, and 70 neutralize and
remove the uric acid, or kidney poison, as
fast as IL is formed,
If this acid is not removed there Is mac
tivity Of the kidneys, and there Will be pre-
duced in the system paralysis. apoplexy, dys-
pepsia, consumption, heart disease, headache;
rheumatism, pneumonia, impotency. and all
the nameleSs diseases OF delicate women. II
the poisonous matter is separated from the
blood, as fast rs it is formed, these diseassg,
in n Majority of cases, would not exist.
10 only requires n particle of smallpox
virus TO produce that vie disease, and the
poisonous matter from the kidneys, passing
all through the system an becoming lodged
atdifferent weak points is equally destruc-
tive, although more disyuis d.
IL IL were possible for us to see into the
kidneys, and how quickly the blool RAISING
through them goes to the heart and lungs
and other parts OF the system, CARRYING this
deadly virus with it, all would believe with
out hesitation what has so often been stated
in advertisements in these columns, that tho
kidneys are the most important organs in the
body.
They may regard this article as an adver-
tisement and refuse 10 believe il, but that is
a matter over which we have 10 control.
Careful investigation aud science itself are
proving beyond doubt that this organ is
in fact, more important than any other in
the system as a health regulator, and as such
should be closely watched, for the least Sign
OF disordered action
