AFREE GIFT OF GREAT VALUE TO YOU.
A short time ago our readers were
made aware of valuable new botanical
discovery, that of the Kava-Kava Shrub,
or as botanists call it, piper methystic,suo,
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 Gauges 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-eol-
ored and loaded with the products of disease,
which the Kidneys are vainly endeavoring TO
excrete from the system. Under these conditions
the other organs become affected, and life bangs
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-Ksva Shrub. 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 aflict mankind. Dis
eases Of the Kidneys are the most fatal and
dangerous. and this being the case. il is but
natural that the discovery of the Kaya- Kava
Shrub-Nature's Positive Specific Cure for Dis
eases of the Kidneys-is welcomed as gift to
suffering humanity.
Alkavis, which is the medical compound of
the Ksva- Kava Shrub, is Endorsed by the Hos
pitfalls and Physicians Of Europe as sure Specific
Cure for Kidney and Bladder Diseases Diabetes.
Bright's Disease, Briek-Dust deposits, Rheuma-
tism, Liver Diseases Female Complaints, pain
in back, and all diseases caused by impurities Of
the Blood due to defective action of the Kidneys.
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 a sufferer from Kid
ney troubles, and could obtain no relief from
physicians / used various Kidney remedies,
but with no success. had given up all hopes
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 Alksyis
to persons afflicted with Kidney and Rheumatic
disorders as the best remedy known"
DR.. A. r. Knapp, well-knewn surgeon
and physician of Leoti, Kansas, voices the
opinion of the doctors, and writes:
1.-THE case ordered Alkavis for has improved
wonderfully. believe you have in Alkavis .
complete specific for all Kidney troubles"
Mr.. r. C. Wood, prominent attorney of
Lowell, Indiana, was cured by Alkavis of
Rheumatism, Kidney and Bladder trouble of
ten years standing. He writes:
AZ have been treated by all our home physi-
clans without the least benefit. My bladder
trouble became SO troublesome that had to get
up from five to twelve times during the night
to urinate. In fact, / was in misery the whole
time, and was becoming very respondent.
/ have now used Alkavis and am bet
ter than / have been for five years. / know
Alkavis will cure bladder and kidney trouble.
1t is wonderful and grand, good
remedy"
And even more wonderful is the testimony
of Rev. John II. Watson, of Sunset, Texas, o
minister ofthe gospel, in thirty years service,
stricken down at his post of duty by Kidney
disease. He says:
az was suddenly stricken down on the 22d
of June with acute attack of kidney trouble
(uric acid gravel. For two months lay hover
ing on the border line of life, and with the con-
slant care of two excellent physicians. / only
received temporary relief My family phys-
clan told me plainly the best could hope for

collapse suddenly, might linger some time.
But the issue was made up, and as / had for
years warned others to be ready, so now more
than ever / must needs put my house in order

Alkavis, and wrote to an army comrade (now I
principal of colege) who had tried it. He |
wrote by all means to try it, as it had made q |
new man of him. At the end of two months, |
and then sly able to sit up little dismissed |
my physicians and began the use Of Alkayis. In |
two weeks could ride out in the carriage for |
short time The improvement has been
constant and steady. am now able TO look |

fifty-fve years old, have been minister over |
thirty years, have thousands of acquaintance, |
and to every one of them who may be afflicted |

Another most remarkable cure is that of
Rev. Thomas Smith, of Golden, Illinois, who
passed nearly one hundred gravel stones
under two weeks use of this great remedy,
Alkavis.
