The chief fun tion of the k.dneys is to separ­
ate from the blood, in its passage through them,
of certain impurities aud watery particles which
make their final exit through the bladder. The
1 etention of thet-e in consequence of inactivity
of the kidneys is productive of Bright s d sease,
dropsy, diab°te°, albuminuria and other mala­
dies with a fatal tendency. Hostetter’s Stomach
Bitters, a highly sanctioned diuretic and blond
depurent, impels the kidneys when inactive to
renew their sifting funct on, and strain irom
the vital current impurities which infest it and
threaten their own existence as organs of the
body. Catarih of the bladder, g’aveland reten­
tion of the urine are also malad es arrested or
averted by this benign promoter and res ora-
tive of organic action. Malaria, rheumatism,
constipation, biliousness and dyspepsia also
yield to the Bitters, whim is al*o speedily bene­
ficial to the weak and nervous.
