HOW TO FIND OUT. It is the function of the kidneys to filter and purify the blood which is constantly passing through them. When the kidneys are out of order the other organs are affected immediately and you may have symptons of heart trouble, stomach and liveir trouble, and other ailments, which are all owing to the kidneys being weak and out of order. If yon are sick Foley's Kid My Cure will strengthen and build up the worn out tissues of the kidneys so they will act properly and the symptons of weakness, heart, stomach and liver trouble will disappear and you will he restored to perfect health. How to Tsll If You Have Kldnsy Trouble. You can easily determine if your kid* neys are out of order by setting aside for 24 hours a bottle of the urine passed upon arising. If upon examination it is cloudy or milky or has a brick-dust sed iment or small particles float about in it, your kidneys are diseased and Foley's Kidney Cure should be taken at once. Foley's Kidney Cure is pleasant to take and acts directly upon the parts affected and you begin to feel better at once. It corrects slight disorders in a few days and it has cured many obstinate cases after other treatment had failed. Doctors Said Hs Would Not Uvo. Peter Frey, of Woodruff, Pa., writes: "After doctoring for two years with the best physicians in Waynes burg, and still fetting worse, the doctors advised' me if had any business to attend to I had bet" ter attend to it at once, as I could not p/ysihly live anothermonth, as there was no cure for me. Foley's Kidney Cfiro was recommended to me by a friend, and I immediately sent my son to the store for it and after taking three bottles I be gan to get better and continued to im prove until I was entirely well." ...1.
