abused in any way. serious results 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
1919 in the state Of New York alone.
Therefore, it bebooves us to pay more
attention to the health of these most
important organs.
