For a great many years it has been
the custom for sick people to say: MY

clearing. My brain feels tired"
They are right, but do they act right?
They generally go and get a laxative
(bowel cleaner to purify their blood.
Does their blood run through their
bowels?
Science has to-day furnished proofs
that all the purifying that your blood
reeds, in fact, all that can be done,
nus be done by your kidneys.
All the blood in your body passes
through your kidneys every three min
utes.
The kidneys strain or filter u ttheim-
purities OF the blood-thatis their work.
Purifying your blood is not a ques-
ton of taking a laxative or physic.
Does your blood run through your
bowels?
What the bowel-cleaner does is to
throw out the poisons confined in your
bowels ready for absorption into your
blood. but the poisons which are already
in your blood, causing your present
sickness 1t kdres there.
There is no other way of purifying
your blood except by means of your kid
neys.
That is why bowel-cleaners fail to do
their w~ork--they fail to help the kid
neys.
When you are sick, then, no matter
what you think the name of your dis
