A PHYSICIANS DIAGNOSIS OF
! KIDNEY TROUBLE.
ASeemingly Common Disease
which Becomes Fatal through
Neglect and which May Be
Readily Cured by Prompt At
tention.

More than two-thirds of the annual
death rate, physicians claim, is directly
traceable to kidney disorders.
Interested by this remarkable asser-
ton and desiring to acquire better un-
derstanding of the origin of the disease.
a prominent physician was recently in
terviewed as to the symptoms Of such
troubles.
"To what do you attribute the great
destructiveness Of kidney disease7" was
asked.
"The hold which the disease gains in
the body before the victim becomes aware
Of histrpe condition, and the rapidity
with which it eats its way into the vital
organs.'
"Would not the proverbial ounce Of
prevention check the progress of the
diseasef",
"There is no doubt of it. The trouble
is that victims of this disease mistake
the symptoms for some trifling ailment
in the stomach or bowels; therefore they
do nothing to arrest the course of the
disease until it is we'll advanced
"What is the origin of kidneytrouble9"
'Almost invariably bad digestion, fol.
lowed by torpid liver and constipated
habit"
"What are the symptoms7"
Headache, dizzy spells, sluggish
brain, restless nights, pale or sallow
skin, bad breath, lack of appetite. heart
burn, sour belching, backache or tender
ness over the kidneys, nervous weak
ness. dark rings around the eyes, tired
feeling, too much or too little urine, and
sediment in urine" -
IT'S EFFECT ON THE HEART.
'.ln what way is the heart affected from
kidney trouble1"
I'm all cases the heart is disturbed
though in many instances the palpita
ton does not become alarming until the
disease has advanced to serious point
A severe heart throbbing and nervous
trembling is noticeable, especially aftel
little bodily exercise; the victim fire
quently imagines he has heart disease
HOW TO CURE IT.
