A Valuable Suggestion

II is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to a re-
markable degree and do tremendous
amount of work in removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
tiltering the blood.
During the winter months especially
when we live an indoor life, the kidneys
should receive some assistance when
needed, as we take less exercise, drink
less water and often eat more rich
heavy food, thereby forcing the kidneys
to do more work than Nature intended
