Things You Can Do
Just as Well as a Learned
Physician.

Often it is needless to consult doctor
lust as we'll as the most learned phvsi-
clan. When a man or woman is suffer-
ing from Kidney disease, the doctor asks: /:
" DO you desire to urinate often, and are
YOU compelled to get up frequently at
night to make water? DO you have
pains in the small of the back? Does
your urine stain linen? Is there a sCald-
ing pain in passing water, and is it
difficult to hold the urine baCk?' If the
answer is "Yes" to any Of these ques-
tions, your Kidneys are diseased and
decay has set in. Ask yourself these
questions, and answer them.
There is another thing you can do
Put someof your urine in a glass tumbler
or bottle, and let it stand "a hours. If
there is a sediment or powdCr-likc sub
stance at the bottom, or a cloudy
appearance there is grave danger. Your
Kidneys are surely affected. Sufferers
with any OF the above symptoms ought
to be glad to know that Dr. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy will surely
relieve and cure even the most distress
ing cases. No living physician can pre-
scribe a medicine for Kidney, Bladder.
Liver and Blood that equals FavOrite
Remedy--not one Nearly all who drink
beer or whiskey have diseased Kidneys,
but Favorite Remedy removes the bad
effects, and it also does away with
the use of instruments for pushing back
the sandy matter so that the urine may
pass freely from the bladder. All drug

aster. How far this general law will
affect the special relief extended 10 the
Maine sufferers has not yet been deter
mined but in any event It will cover only
the actual loss of clothing. etc, while the
relief measure is designed to give bulk
