KIDNEY TROUBLE CURED
AD Ohio Chemist Discovers a Remedy
That Promises to End Terror of
Bright'S Disease

Since DR.. Richard Bright first described
Brights disease in 1927 the medical world
has given more and more attention to the
study of the kidneys as a source of disease
and have demonstrated beyond doubt that
they are the direct cause of many OF the ills
of mankind.
Nineteenth century methods of living are
well calculated to change the functions CT
these delicate organs and few men today
can be absolutely certain that their kidneys
are in perfectly normal condition. A tinge
of pain in the back is classed under that
broad title of "co'd," while the dull ache that
creeps through the bones is blamed on the
weather or allowed to pass unheeded. This
in reality, is natures way of sounding the
first warning that something is going wrong
with the internal mechanism and wise in
deed is the man who needs 1t. : $.~,saa
Physicians have long been in dispute as
to the best means of treating disease of the
kidneys. The best theories being so often
upset by dire failure that it seemed almost
as though AN infallible remedy would never
be discovered.
Among the most earnest workers in this
field has been John Morrow. an eminent
chemist of Springfield, Ohio, whose expert.
ence of nineteen years gave him ample op,
its phases. The result of his research is a
new combination of remedies which he has
prepared in yellow tablet form, under the
name of Kidneoids. While almost entirely
new to the medical world Morrow's Kidne-
ODDS have produced such marvellous results
that there seems little reason for doubling
tnaJ ne mas discovered the remedy so long
sought for by eminent physicians and that
time-w worn ideas rs to the most efficient
method of treating the kidneys will soon be
obsolete.
In our last issue we announced that one of
the largest drug concerns in the United
State was negotiating for the control of
Morrow's Kidneoids. We are now informed
| by the discoverer of this most peculiar
| remedy that the Herb Medicine Co., of
Springfield, Ohio, was the fortunate competi
| tor of the many firms who were endeavoring
| to secure the sole right to manufacture and
sell Morrow's kidneoids in the United
States. They are now on sale, generally.
sent postpaid, 80 cents per box, six boxes for
