SCIENTIFIC TRUTH.


AZ the tIine attracted aiao attention
ny request of correspondent we re-
produce the leading points therein:
10 understand how intimately re-
lated are the humnn kidneys to the
physical health, I'VE propose, meta
phoricaliy speaking, to take one from
the human body and place it in the
"ash-towi before Us and examine itn

about five ounces.
Inc body OF the average size man
contains about ten quarts Of blood
every drop OF which passes through
these iilterers or sewers, many times
day las often as through tile beartl
making complete revolution in three
minutes. The kidneys take away
deadly impurities from IS gallons O,

Interior.
We find it to be filled with hun
dreds Of little tubes, short and thread
like, starting from the arteries, ending
IN little tuft about midway from the
OUTSIDE, opening into sac which hold.

ton before it passes into the ureter..
and out Of the body. These little
tubes are filters which do their work
automatically, and right here the dis
ease OF the kidney first begins.
From the slightest irregularity in
our habits, from cold, from high Iiv-
Ing, from stimulants or thousand
and one ether daily causes, they Jose
their force.
What is the result? Congestion or

are at first partially. and soon totally
unable to do their work. The sac
goes on distending with this corrup-
tion, pressing upon the blood ve-sels.
All this time, remember, the blood,
which Is entering the kidneys to be
filtered, is passing through this terri
oily disgusting pus, for it cannot tax
any other route.
1t would be just as reasonable to
expect to escape contagion if a pest
house were set across Broadway and
countless thousands were compelled
10 go through its pestilential door., az
for one to expect the blood to escape
pollution when constantly running
through such a 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 mus
Gle, tissue, flesh and bone, frum your
head to your feet. And whenever,
from hereditary influence or other
wise, one part OF the body is weaker
than another, a countless train OF dis
eases is established, such as consump-
ton in weak lungs, dyspepsia where
| there is delicate stomach. nervous
ness, insanity, paralysis or heart dis
ease. in those who have weak nerves
and bad circulation.
But the medical profession, knowing
that they cannot cure diseases OF thu
Kidneys, treat the manifold symptoms
caused by this primary or causative
disease. As fast as they cure one
symptom, another secondary one ap-
pears, and so they 60 on, useleasly
treating effects, the cause being I'M
touched.
But you say amy kidneys are ali
right. l have no pain in my back !"
Mistaken man. People die of kidney
disease Of so bad character that the
organs are rotten. and yet they never
here had pain nor an ache.
"How can you know that you have
kidney disease?'
Only by noting the general effects
wrought by the kidney poisoned blood
in other parts of the body. Kidney
disease disguises itself under symptom,
OF common head, lungs. skin, liver and
stomach disorders.
Ii YOU notice that You are not in As
reliable health as formerly, in any
respect, then the chances are that,
though you may have no known
chronic disease, your blood is full OF
uric kidney acid. Then comes in the

Use Warmers safe cure, the only trust

diseases, primary or secondary.
The most >killful physicians cannot
detect such disease at times, for the
kidneys themselves cannot be exam
ined by any means which We have at
our command. Even an analysis OF
the water. chemically and microscop-
ically, 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 % per
cent, as shown by after death exami-
nations, has It's origin in the breaking
down OF these secreting tubes in the
interior of the kidney.
