PURE WATER,

The greatest necessity of every-day life is pure water. Two-thirda of one’s body is made up of water. If the water wo drink is impure, then how can we hope to escape diseased conditions ? It is impossible. The stomach, liver, and kidneys cannot purify polluted water. Some cautious people resort to the filter for purifying this water, but even the filter does not remove this poison, for water of the most deadly character may pass through this filter and become clear, yet the poison disguised is there. They who use filters know that they must become renewed at regular periods, for even though they do not take out all the impurity, they soon become foul. Now in like manner the human kidneys act as a filter for the blood, and if they are filled up with imparities and become foul like the filter, all the blood in the system coursing through them becomes bad, for it is now a conceded fact that the kidneys are the chief means whereby the blood is purified. These organs are filled with thousands of hair-like tubes, which drain the impurities from the blood, as the sewer pipes drain impurities from our houses.

If a sewer pipe breaks under the house, the sewage escapes into the earth and fills the house with poisonous gas ; so, if any of the thousand and one little hair-like sewer tubes of the kidneys break down the entire body is affected by this awful poison. It is a scientific fact that the kidneys have few nerves of sensation ; and, consequently, disease may exist in these organs for a long time and not be suspected by the individual. It is impossible to filter or take the death out of the blood when the least derangement exists in these organs, and if the blood is not filtered then the uric acid or kidney poison, removable only by Warner’s Safe Cure, accumulates in the system and attacks any organ,' producing nine out of ten ailments, just as sewer gas and bad drainage produce so many fatal disorders. Kidney disease may be known to exist if there is any marked departure from ordinary health without apparent known cause, and it should be understood by all that the greatest peril exists, and is intensified if there is the least neglect to treat it promptly with that great specific, Warner’s Safe Cure, a remedy that has received the highest recognition by scientific men, who have thoroughly investigated the character of kidney derangements. The liver, when deranged, immediately announces the fact by sallow skin, constipated bowels, coated tongue, and headaches; but the kidney when diseased struggles on for a long time, and ihe fact of its disease can only be discovered by the aid of the microscope or by the physician who is skilful enough to trace the most indirect effects in the system to derangement of these organs as the prime cause.
