This Is just, for statistics from all sources show that tike use of alcoholio drinks always predis­ poses to kidney troubles, and Brightfr Disease, Diabetes and all other fatal kid* ney diseases are far more frequent among drinkers of beer and alcoholio beverages than among those who do not Indulge in them. In a recent address before the Senate of the United States, Hon. J. H. Gallinger, Senator from New Hampshire, gave the results of most thorough investigations made to ascertain the effects of beer drink* ing upon the health and life of individ­ uals. He showed conclusively that almost all cases of Bright's Disease were caused by beer drinking and that other fatal kid* ney troubles had the same origin as a rul®. As probably a large majority of men drink beer it becomes s matter of great concern to know the best way of overcom­ ing its effects upon the kidneys. There ti nothing that will so quickly make the kid* neys right in these cases as FOLEY'S ITM. NKY CURB. If taken early it will cure every form of kidney trouble and even in hope* less cases it will give relief. It is an hop- est preparation and can be relied upon Is do ell that Is claimed for it» G. W.
