Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping "It wUl wear awy," are
drifting towards Bright s Disease, which is kidney trouble in one ofjwors forms.
x ri iiw wn r tjrr i fi 1 1 m
stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues
of the kidneys so they wilfperform their functions properly. Healthy kidneys strain out
the impurities from the blood as it passes through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and
the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the body,
causing dizziness, backache, stomach trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc.
If you hare any signs of Kidney or Bladder 'i rouble commence taking FOLEY'S
KIDNEY CURE at once, as It will cure a slight disorder in a few days and prevent a
fatal malady. It is pleasant to take and benefits the whole system.
