BRIGHTS DISEASE Many people who are neglecting symptoms of kidney trouble, hoping "it will wear away," are drifting towards Bright's Disease, which is kidney trouble in one of its worst forms. FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE stops irregularities, strengthens the urinary organs and builds up the worn-out tissues of the kia- 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 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 KIDNEYCURE 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* Yott "t" 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. «. •.
