STRIKES YOU ANYTIME.

Kidney troubles lame the back, so that
every exertion or sudden twist sends a
keen stab of pain through the loins and
kidneys. Those paralyzirg twinges are
sure proof of trouble jl the kidneys.
Rackache is but the dun throbbing Of
congestedf infamed kidneys. Headache.
dizzy spells. and languor are the effects
of uric acid poisoning. Puffy swelIings
beneath the eyes. bloating of ankles and
limbs. weak heart and rheumatic pains
are due to inactioa of the kidneys.
The kidneys are the filters OF the
blood. Their business is to remove the
poisons and 10 pass them OFF in the urine
together with the watery waste from
food and drink. If the kidneys are mac
tive. these poisons and this waste are
left in the body. to do damage every
where. The kidneys themselves become
affected in time. and fall a prey to vast
ing diabetes or fatal Brights disease.
It is best TO give the kidneys help as
soon as pain or uneasiness is felt in the
small of the back or loins or when any
disorder of the urine is noticed. Rouse
the kidneys from their fatal sleep Cure
