Few people realize what a vast proportion of serious illnesses arises from cold settling on some delicate organ of the body. The kidneys and liver, as well as the lungs are. very easily affected by sudden changes of temperature, and the results are often suddenly fatal. It is a common experience with farmers, teamsters, railroad men and laborers to have a cold settle on the kidneys and throw these organs, as well as the whole digestive system, out of order. There is usually backache, pains in the sides and limbs, deposits in the urine, pain and scalding with urination and irregularity of the bowels. ‘ Goldh Settles on the Kidneys. So many thousands of cases of serious kidney disease have, been cured by Dr. Chase's Kidney-Liver Pills that they‘hnve come to be considered an absolute cure tor d“ kidney derangement: They are purely vsgstnble in composition, promptand pleasant in action, and thorough and far-reaching in their efi'ects.
