Brothers (onpy >MSS§ IBIS Combination BRIGHTS DISEASE Many people who arc neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping "it will wear away," are drifting towards Bright's^Disease, which is kidney trouble ia one of its worst forms. FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE •tops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues of the kid­ neys so they will perform their functions pro^rly. 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 body, causing d i z z i n e s s , b a c k a c h e , s t o m a c h trouble, sluggish liver, irregular heart action, etc. If you have any 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 take and benefits the whole system. Now to Find Out. You can easily determine if your kid* Beys 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.

It entirely stopped the brick- doat sediment and pain una symptoms of kidney disease disappeared. 1 am glad to say that l have never had a return of any of titoee symp­ toms during the four years that have elapsed, and I am evidently cured to stay cured, and heartily recommend Foley's Kidney Cure to any eM suffering from kidney or bladdertroubie.
