Well, said Mr.. Wade, I'll tell you.
The kidneys are the filters of the blood.
In kidney disease they get clogged up
and the impurities remain in the sys-

causes rheumatism by lodging in the
joints. Well, this uric aciu not only
gave me rheumatism, but it attacked

case of the Pope. "Outwardly," he says,
"he looks a broken-down Old gentleman,
