How Escape Smallpox With a
Pest House in broadway.
Some time ago an article was pub
lished in the Scientific American
which at the time attracted wide at
tention. BY request Of a correspond
ent we reproduce the leading points
therein:
TO understand how intimately re-
lated are the human kidneys TO the
physical health, I'VE propose. meta
phorically speaking to take one from
the human body and place 1t in the
wash bowl before nv. and examine it. "
You will imagine that we have be-
fore us a body shaped like bean,
smooth and glistening, about four
inches in length, two in width and
one in thickness. 1t weighs in the
adult about five ounces.
The body of the average size man
contains about ten quarts Of blood,
every drop of which passes through
these filterers or sewers, many times
a day, as often as through the heart.
making a complete revolution in
three minutes. The kidneys take
away deadly impurities from 65 gal.
Ions Of blood each hour. or about 4s
barrels each day, or 9,125 hogsheads
year.
Let us slice this delicate organ
open lengthwise, and roughly de-
scribe its interior.
We find it to be filled with hun
dreds OF little tubes short and thread
like, starting from the arteries, end
ing in little tuft about midway
from the outside, opening into sac
which holds the water to further I'M.

to the ureters, and out of the body
These little tubes are filters which dc
their work automatically, and RICH,
here the disease of the kidney first
begins.
From the slightest irregularity IN
our habits, from cold, from high liv.
ing, from stimulants or q thousand
and one other daily causes, they lose
their force.
What is the result9 Congestion Q,

small blood vessels surrounding them
which become blocked; these delicate
membranes are irritated: infiamna

which collects in the sac; the tubes
are at first partially, and soon totally
unable to do their work. The sat

All this time, remember, the blood
which is entering the kidneys to b.
filtered, is passing through this terri
bly, disgusting pus, for it cannot take
any other route.

Now what is the result9 Why
that the blood takes up and deposits

from hereditary influence or other

But the medical profession, know
