Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1895-10-10
is 4 kidney tonic.

Asparagus is kidney tonic.
1t builds up and invigorates the
kidneys, and cures them from the
effects of injuries, overwork, etc.
Doctors agree that asparagus is
good for the kidneys, but no strong
extract with all the medicinal prop
critics had been prepared until DIR.
Hobb prepared it from the roots by
a special process of his own.
He found this so successful that he
made it up into pills. with some few
other ingredients, and used them in
his private practic0for years.
This was the origin of DIR. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney Pills.
French physicians of repute have
carefully tested asparagus in all kid
ney troubles, and consider it of great
value.
Now the United States Health Re-
ports, Vol. XXIV., No. ?, has this to
say:
"Dr. bio Lewis said: Nineteen
diseases out of twenty originate
from diseased kidneys, and those
who have made pathology a study
will agree with this eminent physi-
clan that where the kidneys fail TO
perform their functions in any way
the whole system becomes encrvated
aud the body diseased. When the
kidneys fail to perform their wonted
task, effete and injurious matter is
carried to all parts of the body.
Through a mistaken diagnosis, these
symptoms are often pronounced sep
aratc and distinct diseases, but as a
matter of fact they can only be cured
by remedies which reach and relieve
the overworked kidneys and
strengthen them. SO that they can
successfully act their part as cleans
crs of the body, thereby insuring
regularity, strength and good health
throughout the entire system.
among all the remedies claiming
to perform this much desired result,
and which have been Investigated by
the compilers of these Reports, it has
been found that while there was
much to commend there was much
to be desired. 1t is. therefore. with
more than ordinary pleasure, after a
most painstaking investigation and
a long and careful examination of
the results achieved by the remedy
placed upon the market by the
Hobbs Medicine company, known as
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills,
that we pronounced this preparation
a kidney remedy par-excellence, and
one that will speedily and effectually
cure all diseases of the kidneys,
whatever their origin or name, or
however chronic or deep-seated they
may be.
During quarter of a century of
journalism, during which time we
have exercised a watchful care over
many of the preparations having fol
their object the cure of kidney dis
eases, we have never come across a
preparation of such merit as DIR.
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills"

is had on the kidneys, but the
greater part of the curative property
of the plant is not absorbed and goe:

as prepared by DIR. Hobb contains al
the active curative elements so pre-
pared that they are at once absorbed
and do their work of curing the kid
neys without waste or loss.
