FILTERED BLOOD.
MorrOw's Method Of Curing Diseases
Accusing the Interest OF
Scientists.

Physicians of all schools are beginning to
realize that the primary cause of nearly every
disease that attacks the human system is the
failure of the kidneys to perform the duties
nature assigned them.
The blood is constantly absorbing from the
different articles of food taken into the stom-
ach, various impurities, which, if permitted to
course through the system, quickly render the
blood unfit to carry on the process of healthy
nutrition and ultimately result in the develop
ment of disease.
1t is the duty of the kidneys to filter the
blood; the slightest irregularity in the per-
Torrance of this function is Immediately mani
tested in general weakness of the body; a
tendency to give out with little exertion. This
symptom is closely followed by others of much
more distressing nature which it is often Gus
tomary to attribute to other causes.
John Morrow, an eminent chemist of SPRING
field, Ohio, using as a basis for his work the
theory that the kidneys are responsible for the
CONDITION of our health, has produced new
remedy which he has named Morrows Kidne-
odds, the purpose of which is to act directly on
the kidneys eliminating all unnatural deposits
and rectifying the damage caused by their ex-
istence.
The remarkable results obtained by this
medicine have attracted wide attention and
established a new method of treating disease,
the efficacy of which cannot be disputed.
Morrow's Kidneoids are prepared in yellow
tablets so small as TO almost rob them of their
virtue in the eyes of those not versed in medi
cine, but so potent is their influence that their
effects are noticed almost Immediately
They are now on sale generally If not to
be had of your dealer, they will be sent post
paid on receipt of 80 cents per box, boxes for
$3.50, by the Herb Medicine Co. Springfield,
Ohio.

The Lost Kiss.

While the pen, idly trailed in my hand,
Writes on Had words to complete 1t,

But the little bare feet on the stairway,
And the faint, smothered laugh in the hall,
And the eerie-low lisp on the silence,
Cry up to me over 1t all.
So l gathered 1t up-where was broken
The tear-fsded thread Of my theme,
Telling how. as one night sat writing.
