Smoklness or sediment that can be seen with the . naked eye are not usu ally evidences of a very serious stage of the inflammation. Both often show In people otherwise -well and commonly disappear wun ine exciung cause. . The patient should diet. void colds and live carefully and the ordinary case of kidney trouble will with care and treatment usually disappear . the first few we?ks. If it persists, or there should bo con tinued evidence of disordered kidnevs. it should demand the attention of the Satient in view or the position taken y medical writers that about the sixth month the Inflamed condition becomes chronic, and incurable. , It will be seen through- all the above that the real trouble is Inflammation In the kidneys. While there , are many kidney ,, stimulants they have been abandoned by physicians, for they now know that none of them' carry repair to inflamed kldneya The late John J. Fulton was the first fnan in the world to discover an emol lent that reaches the kidneys. : It reverses the old : treatment. In stead of Irritating the Inflamed kid neys with stimulants, the effect la the gradual reduction of the Inflammation and for the first time kidney disease, both In the first and second stages, is amenable to treatment, Fulton's Renal Compound abating the Inflammation In aibout 87 pec cent of all cases. -., Literature mailed free. - ; , i( JOHN J, FULTON CO, f r . , ' v :-.,.-' . -OakUnd.
