Catarrhal Inflammation of the mucous
lining of the kidneys, also called
Bright's disease" may be either acute
or chronic. The acute form produces
symptoms of such prominence that the
serious nature of the disease is at once
suspected, but the chronic variety may
come on SO gradually and insidiously
that its presence is not suspected until
after it has fastened itself thoroughly
upon its victim.
At the appearance of the first symp-
tom Peruna should be taken. This rem-
edy strikes at once at the very root OF
the disease.
