The Slightest Derangement OF These
Important Organs Should Be
Promptly Needed, for No Disease
is More Dangerous.

Deadly diabetes, gravel or stone in
the bladder, uremic poisoning, and
other fatal forms of Kidney Diseases
always begin in a mild form. There
is little harm at first, and with proper
treatment all irregularities can be cor
rected, but the slight symptoms are
often overlooked and before the vic
tim can realize it, fully developed
and dangerous stage is reached.
A thoroughly reliable and time
tested remedy for all diseases of the
Bladder and Kidneys is
STUARTS GIN AND BUCHU.
For thirty years this remedy has
been in general use, and has made
some noteworthy cures of cases that
had reached a dangerous stage. 1t

ease, dissolving and expelling from
the system all poisonous matter, and
restores the bladder and kidneys to
their normal healthy condition.
