A FREE GIFT OF GREAT VALUE TO YOU.
A short time ago our readers were
made aware of valuable new botanical
discovery, that of the Kava-Kaya Shrub,
or as botanists call it, piper methysticons,
found on the banks of the Ganges river
in East India. From a medical stand
point this is perhaps the most important
discovery of the century. The use of
the Kava-Kava Shrub, like other valu-
able medical substances, opium and
quinine, was first observed by Christian
missionaries among the natives of India as
a sovereign remedy for Kidney diseases.
Speaking of the use of the Kava-Kava
Shrub by the natives of India, DIR. Archi-
bald Hodgson, the great authority on
these diseases, says:
"Intense heat and moisture Of this tropical
climate acting upon the decaying vegetation
renders these low grounds on the Ganges the
most unhealthy districts found anywhere.
| Jungle fevers and miasma assail the system, and
even the most robust constitutions yield to the
deadly climatic influences. The Blood becomes
| deranged and the Urine is thick and dark-co-
ored and loaded with the products of disease
which the Kidneys vsinly endeavoring to
eXcrete from the system. Under these condt
the other organs become affected, aud life hangs
in the balance. Then when all the remedies of
modern medical science fail, the only hope and
barbor of safety found in the prompt use of
Kava. Kava Shurb A decoction OF this wonder
full botanical growth relieves the Kidneys and
enables them to carry off the diseased products
from the Blood. The Urine becomes clearer,
the fever abates and the intense suffering and
nausea are alleviated. Recovery sets in and the
patient slowly returns to health"
OF all the diseases that affiict mankind, Dis
eases of the Kidneys are the most fatal aud
dangerous, and this being the case, it is but
natural that the discovery of the Kava-Kava
Shrnb-Nature's Positive Specific Cure for Dis
easesof the Kidneys-is welcomed as gift to
suffering humanity.
Alkayis, which is the medical compound of
the Kava-Kava Shrub, is Endorsed by the Hos
pitfalls and Physicians of Europe as a sure Specific

Rev. w. B. Moore of Washington, d. c.,
Editor of the Religious World" writes of
the wonderful curative effects Of Alkavis:
"For several years was sufferer from Kid

of ever recovering my health, until hearing of
the marvellous cures effected by your Alkavis,
decided to try same. After using the first bot
tie | began to experience relief, and following
up the treatment was permanently cured. /
cheerfully recommend your excellent Alkavis
to persons afflicted with Kidney and Rheumatic
disorders as the best remedy known"
DIR. A. r. Knapp, well-known surgeon
and physician OF Leoti, Kansas, voices the
opinion of the doctors and writes:
"The case ordered Alkavis for has i'm proved
wonderfully | believe you have in Alkayis a
complete specific for all Kidney troubles"
Mr.. r. G. Wood prominent attorney of
Lowell, Indiana, was cured by Alkavis of
Rheumatism, Kidney and Bladder trouble of
ten years. standing. He writes:
