THE KIDNEYS.

Kidney troubles are undoubtedly
the cause of more deaths than any 9TH
err disease, for the reason that their
approach - glow and gradual, and, as
a rule, unRccompanied by warning
symptoms. The Kidney relieves the
sy stem Of all poisonous material, and
discharge il through the urine. When
they become diseased the poison re-
mains in the blood, gradually increas-
ing In minute quantities until the sys-
tenn can no longer resist its effects.
The heart becomes affected, action
fails and dropsy appears. The nervous
system is poisoned and commissions are
followed by death.
The liver and kidneys act like drains,
to collect and carry away waste and
worn out materials from the body. In
the spring the functions of These organs
are imperfectly performed. and the or
gans become clogged 10y the waste
matters which are thus retained in the
system. That is why you are so weak
tired and laDquid, wake tired morn
iDgs, and lack your usual strength, en-.
ergy and vim in the spring. That il
why you have weakness and pain in the
side or back, high-colored urine, with
sedim ents, headache, coated tongue
bad taste in the mouth, thirst, bilious
ness, constipation, cold feet, poor cir
culation, extreme nervousness and
FRUSTRATED feelings.
