How Escape Smallpox With Pest House on
Broadway

Some time ago an article was published
IN the Scientific american which at the
time attracted wide stter ton. By REQUEST
| OF correspondent we reproduce the
| leading points therein:
To understand how intimately related
are the human kidneys to the physical
health, i've propose, metaphorically
| speaking to take one from the human
body and place it in the wash bowl be-
fore Us, apd examine it.n
You vii imagine that we have before
as body shaped like bean, smooth and
glIstenlng, about four inches in length,
two IN width and Ole in thickness. It
weighs in the adult about five ounces.
The body of the average size man con-
! talns about ten quarts of blood, every
drop of which passes through these fit
erers or sewers, mary times a day, (as
often as through the heart making a
complete revolution in three minutes.
Tie kidneys take away deadly impurities
| from 90 gallons of blood each hour, or
| about 80 barrels each day, or 1925 hogs
| heads year.
| Let US slice this delicate organ open
| lengthwise, and roughly describe its in
| terror.
| We find it to be filed with hundreds of
little tubes, short and thread-Iike, starting
from the arteries, ending in little tuft
about midway from the outside, opening
| into a sac which holds the water to
further undergo publication before it
passes into the ureters, and out of the
body. These little tubes are filters which
do their work automatically, and right
here the disease of the kidney first be-
gins.
From the slightest irregularity in our
habits, from cold, from high living, from
stimulants or thousand and one other
daily causes, they lose their force.
What is the RESULT Congestion or stop
page Of the current of blood in the small
blood vessels surrounding them, which be
come blocked; these delicate membranes
are irritated; Inflammation is set I'D, 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 en-
tering the kidneys TO be filtered, is pass
ing through this terribly disgusting pus,
for it cannot take any other route
1t would be just as reasonable to ex-
pect to escape cOntagiOn if a pest-house
we're set across Broadway and countless
thousands were compelled to go through
its pestilential doors, as for one to ex-
pect the blood to escape pollution when
constantly running through such dis
eased 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 muscle, tissue, flesh and
bone, from your head to your feet. And
whenever, from hereditary influence or
otherwise, one part of the body is weaker
than another, countless train of diseases
is established, such as consumption in
weak lungs, dyspepsia, where there is
delicate stomach, nervousness, insanity,
paralysis or heart disease, in those who
have weak nerves and bad circulation.
But the medical profession, knowing
that they cannot cure diseases of the kid
neys, treat the manifold symptoms caused
by this primary or causative disease. AS
fast as they cure one symptom, another
secondary one appears, and so they go
on, uselessly treating effects, the cause
being untouched.
But you say "my kidneys are all right
L have no pain in the back" Mistaken
man! People die of kidney disease, of
SO bad character that the organs are
rotten, and yet they never there had a
pain nor an ache.
Glow can you know that you have kid
ney disease?"
Only by noting the general effects
wrought dy the kidney poisoned blood in
other parts of the body. Kidney disease
DISCUSSES itself under symptoms of
common head, lungs, skin, liver, and
stomach disorders.
If you notice that you are not ia as re-
liable 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 ounce of prevention.
Then you should use Warmers safe cure,
the only trustworthy specific for uric
acid or kidney diseases, primary or sec
ondary.
The most skillful physicians cannot de
tect such diseases at times, for the kid
neys themselves cannot be examined by
any means which we have at our COM
mand. Even an analysis of the water,
chemically and microscopicaliy, reveals
nothing definite IN many cases, even when
the kidneys are fairly broken down.
Then look out for them, as disease, nc
matter where situated, to 90 per cent, as
shown by after death examinations, has
its origin in the breaking down of these
secreting tubes IN the interior of the kid
ney.
Warmers safe cure, as it becomes year
after year better known for it's wonderful
cures and its power over the kidneys, has
done and is doing more to increase the
average duration of life than all the ply
sicians known. It it true specific, mud
but certain, harmless but energetic and
agreeable to the taste.
Take it when sick, as cure, and never
LET moRth go by without taking few
bottles as a preventive, that the kidneys
Z, ay be kept in proper order, the blood
pure, that health and long life may be
yorr blessing"
