How is that:'
II do not know. He claimed that failing

symptoms OF advanced kidney and Bright
disease
Becoming more interested, our reporter
thought he would carry Investigations still
further. and called upon an Institution where
several prominent physicians are employed,
and asked the question:
why is it that uric acid or kidney poison
affects the cycs:'
| One of them answered. 1t does not affect
tie eyes any more than any other organ. 1t is
one of the symptoms of kidney disease The

any other organ; it generally affects many OF

as that, and yet we are not entitled to the
credit. When werestore the kidneys to health
