Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.
All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once in three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about
500 grains of impure matter daily,
when unhealthy some part of this Inn
pure matter is left in the blood This
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms-pain in the back, headache,
govt, gravel, disorders of
the eyesight and hearing, dizziness.
irregular heart, debility, drowslness,
dropsy, deposits in the urine. etc.
But If you keep the filters right you
will have no trouble with your kid
