their health depends upon the condi-
tion of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases
Of serious illness. makes a chemical
analysis OF the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are
doing their work properly. the other
organs cannot readily be brought
back to health and strength.
+ When the kidneys are neglected
or abused in any way, serious re.
suits are sure to. follow. According
TO health statistics. Bright's disease
which is really an advanced form OF
kidney trouble, caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1912, in the state
of New York alone. Therefore,, Il
behooves us to pay more attention tc
the health of these most important
organs.
