When the kidneys are sick there IL
always q warning to tell you of 1t, and
when the kidneys call for help there Is
no time to lose. Kidney diseases are
common and fatal--cause more deaths
every year than any other human Ills.
But In nine cases out of ten this Is due
to neglect Kidney disorders are cas-
lily contracted, but just as easily cured
when treated properly and In time.
Common causes Of kidney troubles
are colds, fevers, exposure, strains on
the back, blood-poisoning diseases,
and Indulgence In stimulants.
The kidneys are the blood filters,
and when they become sick, the blood
Is soon laden with impurities, which
the kidneys have failed to remove
This causes backache, stiff, lame, and
sore muscles, aching joints, spells Of
dizziness, headaches, rheumatic pains,
sleeplessness, nervousness, and Ian.
gour, weak heart and many other bod
lily aches and Ills.
Meanwhile the kidneys are fast
breaking down, and from this cause
the urine becomes discolored and full
Of sandy sediment: passages are too
frequent and often painful.
Uric acid crystallizes and causes
gravel and kidney stones. The blad-
der cannot perform 1t natural duties.
Water which should pass off in the
urine collects in different parts Of the
body, causing dropsical bloating.
