SCIENTIFIC TRUTH.


Some time ago an article was published in
the Scientific american which at the time at
tracted wide attention. By request Of a
correspondent we reproduce the leading
points therein:
To understand how intimately related are
the human kidneys TO the physical health,
two propose, metaphorically speaking TO
take one from the human body and place it
In the wash bowl before us, and examineit"
You will imagine that We have before us
O body shaped like bean, smooth and glis-
tening, about four inches in length, two in
width and one in thickness. It weighs In
tho 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 sew
ers, many times day, (as often as through
the hearty making complete revolution In
three minutes. The kidneys take away
deadly impurities from 65 gallons Of blood
each hour, or about 40 barrels each day, or
9,125 hogsheads n year
Let US slice this delicate organ open length
wise, and roughly describe its interior.
We find 1t to be filed with hundreds Of
little tubes, short and thrcad-like, starting
from the arteries, ending in little tuft
about midway from the outside, opening into
sac which holds the water to further
ureters, and out of the body. These little
tubes are filters which do their work auto
matically, and right here the disease of the
kidney first begins.
From the slightest irregularity in our
habits; from cold, from high living, from
stimulants or q thousand and one other
daily causes, they lose their force.
What is the RESULT Congestion or stop
page Of the current of blood in tho small
blood vessels surrounding them, which be-
come blocked: these delicate membranes
are irritated; inflammation is set up, then
pus is formed, which collects in the sac
| the tubes are at first partially, and soon
totally unable to do their work The sac
goes on distending with this corruption,
| pressing upon the blood vessels. All this
| time, remember, the blood, which is enter
| ing the kidneys to be filtered, is passing
| through this terribly disgusting pus, for it
cannot take any other route.
| II would be just as reasonable to expect
to escape contagon if a pest-house were set
across Broadway and countless thousands
were compelled to go through it's pestilen.
tial doors, as for one to expect the blood tc
escape pollution when constantly running
through such diseased kidney.
Now, what is tho resultl Why, that the
blood takes up and deposits this poison as il
sweeps along into every organ, INTO ever,
inch Of muscle, tissue, flesh and bone, from
your head to your feet. And whenever
| from hereditary influence or otherwise, on,
part of the body is weaker than another,
| countless train of diseases is established
such as consumption in weak lungs, dys
| pepsia, where there is q delicate stomach
nervousness, insanity, paralysis or hear
disease, IN those who have weak nerves an,
l bad circulation.
But the medical profession, knowing tha
they cannot cure diseases Of the kidneys
treat the manifold symptoms caused by thu
primary or causative disease. As fast al
they euro ono symptom, another secondar,
one appears, and so they go on, uselessl,
| treating Effects the cause being untouched
But you say "my kidneys are all right.
have no pain in tho back" Mistaken man
People die of kidney disease, of so bad
character that the organs are rotten, an,
yetthey never there had u pain nor an ache
How can you know that you have kid
ney diseased"
Only by noting the general effects
wrought by the kidney poisoned blood il
other parts of the body. Kidney diseas
DISCUSSES itself under symptoms of common
head, lungs, skin, liver, and stomach disor
ders.
II you notice that you arc not in as relia
bic health as formerly, in any respect
then the chances are that though you ma
have no known chronic disease, your bloc,
is full of uric kidney acid. Then comes il
the ounce of prevention. Then you shoul,
use Warmers safe cure, the only trust
worthy specific for uric acid or kidney dis
eases, primary or secondary.
The most slillful physicians cannot dc
tect such disease at times, for the kidney
themselves cannot be examined by an
means which we have at our command
Even an analysis of the water, chemical,
and microscopically, reveals nothin,
definite in many cases, even when the kid
neys are fairly broken down.
Then look out for them, rs disease, nj
matter where situated, to 93 per cent, a.
shown by after death examinations, has it:
origin in tho breaking down of these sc
creting tubes in the interior of the kidney
Warmers safe cure, as it becomes yea
after year better known for its wonderfr
cures and its power over the kidneys, ha
done and is doing more to increase the avel
age duration Of life than all the physician
known. It's n true specific, mild but Gel
tain, harmless but energetic and agreeabl
to the taste.
Take it when sick, as cure, and neve
let month go by without taking q fey
bottles as preventive, that tho kidney
may be kept in proper order the blood pure
that health and long life may be you
