SAYS ANYONE CAN
PREPARE this
People Here Are Now Taking Less
Patent Medicine and More Home
Remedies Like the
Following.
PRESCRIPTION is GIVEN
Relieves Kidney Trouble, Also Tells
How to Find Que if They Are
Affected and What to do to
Get Prompt Relief.

There are more cases of kidney
trouble here now than ever before.
while recent reports show that more
people succumb each year to some
form of kidney disease than any other
cause.
When there IS sickness. examine
the urine. rheumatism is only
symptom of kidney trouble. 1t is
nothing more or less than excessive
uric acid in the blood which the slug
gish, inactive kidneys have failed to
sift out, leaving it to decompose and
settle about the joints and muscles,
causing intense suffering; frequently
resulting in defornity; often reach
ing the heart, when death ensues.
Pains across the back, frequent
painful and suppressed urination and
other symptoms of weak bladder are
not the only signs of kidney trouble;
many cases of stomach disease, head
ache, pain in the heart, inactive liver,
etc, are but symptoms: the cause of
which can be traced to feeble. clogged
kidneys.
A simple test of the urine is to
void small quantity in bottle or
glass and let it stand over night:
next morning, if there is reddish
brick-dust sediment, or white feecy
substance present, either consult some
reputable physician or take good
vegetable treatment. The following
prescription is recommended highly
in these cases, and the sufferer can
mix it at home: Compound Kargon
one ounce; Fluid Extract Dandelion
one-half ounce; Compound Syrup Sar
saparilla, three ounces. Shake well
and use in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime.
Where any of the symptoms emu.
merated above are present, good re-
suits are sure to follow immediately
the use of this simple prescription.
