The nick OF time to stop the course of bladder
and kidney complaints is when the organs con-
cerned exhibit a tendency to grow inactive.
The healthful impulse toward activity that
they receive from Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
rescues them from impending danger, and
averts such dangerous maladies as Bright's dis
ease and diabetes. Sluggishness of the kidneys
increases liability to chronic rheumatism,
govt and dropsy, and since the blood is filtered
by these organs in its passage through them,
the operation Of the Bitters serves a doubly
happy purpose. The medicine acts without ex-
