HAVE YOU SUSPECTED YOUR KIDNEYS

There are two ways to tell whether you
nave weak kidneys.
The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
That Is why physicians make such a
careful examination when you apply for
Insurance.. and if there is any sign Of kid
ney trouble you are surely rejected.
Kidney disease is so dangerous that it
is a bad mistake to overlook or neglect it,
and If pain in the back, recurring head
aches, or a f~retful, nervous, tired condition
makes you suspect some kidney trouble,
take the trouble to watch the kidney secre-
tons. Look for any Of the following
signs:
More or less than three md one half
pints passed daily.
Too dark or too pale q color.
PASSAGES too frequent. profuse, or much
reduced, or scaldind and painful.
Sandy. Gritty or cloudy settings.
Fat or oily-lookinG layer which gathers
on the surface when allowed to stand.
or q jel1y-like thickenine.
Staining of the linen or bad odor.
Temporary changes may occur for a time
from things eaten, but if the changed ap-
p%earance continues, your kidneys are out
of order and need help. Neglect may prove
serious.

late the kidney secretions, stimulate and
