FOR BOTH One disease of thinness in children is scrofula; in adults, consumption. Both have poor blood; both need more fat. These diseases thrive on lean­ ness. Fat is the best means of overcoming themr; cod liver oil makes the best and healthiest fa t and EMULSION is the easiest and most effective form of cod liver oil. Here's a natural order of things that shows why Scott's Emulsion is of so much value in all cases of scrotula and consumption. More fat, more weight, more nourish­ ment, that's why.

FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues of the kid­ neys so they will perform their functions properly. Healthy kid­ neys strain out the impurities f r o m t h e b l o o d a s i t p a s s e s through them. Diseased kidneys do not, and the poisonous waste matter is carried by the circulation to every part of the bpdy, causing dizziness, backache, s t o m a c h trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. If you have ̂ ny signs of Kidney or Bladder trouble commence tak­ ing FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE at once, as it will cure a slight dis­ order in a few days and prevent a fatal malady. It is pleasant to talce and benefits the whole system. How to Find Out. 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 sediment or small particles float about in it, your kidneys are diseased, and FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE should be taken at once. i. 3.
