What is this terrible disease:
We have taken the trouble to make an in
vestigaton from the best sources ana we give
| the results to our readers
| What astonishes us is the general indiffer-
ence given to kidney disorders. The kidneys
do not sound the alarm of their diseased con
dtion, owing to the fact that they have very
| few nerves, hence few suspect that there is
any disease in them. Irritation. intlamma-
ton, liberation set in, and then the little
tubes, of which the kidneys are full are de
/ strovcd and thrown off and from this fact
are called tube casts
As soon as this begins TO take place it is
only a question of how fast decomposition
gees on before the disease results fatally
! If the proper remedies are taken before
! final decomposition or waste of these tubes
commences or becomes too far advanced,
that is the only and last chance for relief. 1t
is at this point or before that Warmers safe

The most remarkable thing of all oar in
