ia;ion OF food. and a number are ac-
tive in eliminating those portions OF

or the climinativc organs. the kidneys
are of major Importance, and are
most likely 10 he ovcrworkrd and be-
come diseased. When such is the
case. various troubles OF Il digestive
ana climinativc character occur. and
such troubles are so frequent and SO
common that IL is absolutely ncccs-
sary to find some relief. Warmers
Safe Kidney and Liver Remedy was
compounded iifty years ago TO help
cquaiize the work of both kidneys
and liver. How successful il has
been is evidenced by its wide spread
sale and its value is uticstod by an
immense number of appreciativc users
who through these many years have
put il to the severest tests with tho
most satisfactory rcsuita.
